Expedition

After a very fun week+ in Europe (we did a River Cruise from Budapest to Passau, but unfortunately no close Geohashes), we got home and found we had COVID. J got it worse than I did (just a sore throat for me), but I still worked from home to protect my co-workers. When this close hash popped up, I thought it was a nice enough day to ride over and figured I could run out at lunch with plenty of time to spare and get another +1 toward the Posted Achievement.

It was an easy ride over and I knew the route well as this is directly on my way to work when I ride. Once on Nottingham, I pulled onto the sidewalk where I thought the hash was, and fired up the HashDroid App. I saw I still had a couple houses to go so I scooted over and staying on the sidewalk, got as close as I could. I had to wait a bit as there was a guy walking his dog and it stopped to go to the bathroom so I had to pretend to play on my phone for a minute until they finally walked by. Once they did, I got a couple pictures and headed back home for some lunch and to finish up the workday.
