Location

Maramech Woods Nature Preserve in Little Rock Township, Illinois, U.S.A.

Participants

EvilUncleNomo and The Wife

Expedition

I (EvilUncleNomo) got a new smart phone (Android, of course), downloaded the Geohash Droid app, and told The Wife I was going "geohashing". Much to my surprise, The Wife wanted to go too! We could could see on the map that our first target was in the woods, but we didn't know the swamp was there until we stepped in it. That's when The Wife quit. Bravely, I went on without her -- at least until I sunk up to my shins in the mud.

Shoes did not survive.
