Hi. My name is Rhonda, and I like adventure. Robyn thinks I am at least as insane as she is, possibly due to my first ever geohash being a (planned) 4 hour kayak expedition.
Geohashes attempted
- 2009-04-16 48 -122 (Semiahmoo Bay): Success #3, via transit and bike. Met thepiguy at the Peace Arch at 1PM and rode there together.
- 2009-04-13 49 -122 (Langley, BC): Success #2, via public transit. Met Robyn at the hashpoint about 4pm.
- 2009-04-08 49 -123 (Vancouver, BC): First attempt, first success - 5 1/2 hours in an inflatable kayak I bought that morning. Success with Robyn!

Goals
My origin hash spot looks so easy to access, I'm going to go for it next time I visit my parents. It's about 500m (straight line) from highway 5, and google maps shows what appears to be a logging road that passes within 20m or less of the spot.
Personal firsts
This is things that I did for the first time in my life while or because of geohashing.
- Rode a bike across an international border.
- Went to the US on a lark. (All other trips were planned in advance.)
