Hi, my name is Greg, I'm a graduate of New Jersey Institute of Technology, with a BS in computer science. I have a wife and 3-yr-old son, both of whom will likely be joining me when I go geohashing.
I live in the North Jersey graticule, but I visit Cape May frequently.
I like bridge (yes, some people under 60 play it!), cycling, baseball, and photography. My wife is into scrapbooking, crafting, and likes photography as well. My son likes story telling and ... trying to escape HEY GET BACK HERE! :-D.
I'll bring Fluxx, Wizard, or a regular deck of cards or the like. My wife and I sometimes host a monthly card-and-board gaming group, so if the site is close enough, I might suggest our house for the geohash on a weekend once we're done renovating.
Contents
Graticules of Interest
- Newark, New Jersey: (40 N, -74 W)
- Cape May, NJ: (38 N, -74 W)
- Atlantic City: (39 N, -74 W), because it's between the first two.
- Wilmington, NC: (34 N, -77 W), I have relatives here
- San Juan, Puerto Rico: (18 N -66 W), technically, I have relatives here too ;-)
Visited Locations
- 2008-07-26 40 -74: meetup with Zubenelgenubi. XKCD conquers yet another suburb :-).

- 2008-07-12: I drove by the geohash for July 11 (I was going that way anyway). I can only prove it by a) being able to describe the house (house number "Two Ten" in cursive fixtures on the house), and b) verifying that the Bound Brook Fire Dept. was having a fund raiser at a nearby intersection, proving I was there on Saturday.
- 2008-06-28 40 -74: Geohash in Westfield. Brought my wife and son, took pictures, wrote narrative.
I had to give back my Land geohash ribbon, since I didn't get close enough to the actual hashpoint.

- 2008-06-12: The location for Newark was only three miles from where I work on US 206 in Hillsborough, so I've got the closest Cubicle Geohash to date. (Update 7/25/08: This was bested by Virgletati on 2008-06-20.
Ribbons I'm shooting for
- Bicycle Geohash
- Water Geohash
- Virgin Graticule, Atlantic City or Cape May
- Raptor geohash
- Pub Geohash
