Location
In a mowed lot very near the airport in Windsor, CT.
Participants
Sara and her son
Expedition
My son really knows how to enjoy a geohash. As we were walking from our car to the hashpoint, he got interested in a hubcap and a piece of asphalt. He got so excited about finding a good rock that he insisted we take it home, and wouldn't even let me use it to mark the hashpoint.
This hashpoint was in a vacant field in a commercial area. We were there at lunch time on a beautiful day and there were quite a few people walking around the streets. I was too shy to ask them whether there was some kind of organized corporate walking program, but I bet there was. About half of them were wearing green for St. Patrick's Day, by the way.
Photos
The hashpoint is in this mowed area.
GPS
My son is looking away because he didn't want to be photographed at the hashpoint.
But he was quite willing to let me take a picture of him holding his big rock and small rock.
We enjoyed seeing planes take off and land.
