About Lucky

Lucky is an insurance agent, Burner, and sometime land pirate with very little math or web editing know-how. She simply likes the idea of a random adventure generator. Lucky works in one graticule, lives in another, and is close to four others. When she finds a hash she can get to, on a day that she has time, she does it. Unfortunately, it does not appear that there are many active geohashers nearby. As a side note, Lucky usually edits the wiki from her iPhone, which can get pretty tricky. Her skeptical husband is sometimes in the car when Lucky wanders off to a hash.

Planning

Attempted

2012-12-19 38 -120 [[1]] - Dark road with nowhere to pull over. Lots of cars zooming by. Got pretty close, but couldn't get out of the car.

2013-03-02 38 -120 [[2]] - This hash was on East Bay Municipal Utility District property. No trespassing signs all over the place.

Lucky91xj earned the No trespassing consolation prize
by almost (1.18 miles) reaching the (38, -120) geohash on 2013-03-02.

2013-04-25 38 -120[[3]] - A private property hash in an unfriendly neighborhood with a beautiful view. Sadly, unsuccessful.

Lucky91xj earned the No trespassing consolation prize
by almost (390.1 ft) reaching the (38, -120) geohash on 2013-04-25.

2013-05-14 38 -121[[4]] in a wheat field off of highway 205 in Tracy, CA.

Lucky91xj earned the No trespassing consolation prize
by almost (468.2 ft) reaching the (38, -121) geohash on 2013-05-14.

2013-10-12 38 -121[[5]] - Hash was on private property in a hay field, down a steep embankment in the dark. There was nowhere to park, and I didn't dare get out of my car.

Succeeded

2013-02-23 38 -121 [[6]] This one looks like I can get to it, and it's on (relatively) public property! Probably try for morning, instead of 4pm, though. - ~~Got within feet, but couldn't get the GPS to cooperate. Also, there was a fence.~~ Still fun and interesting! - I'm switching this to Succeeded, due to the fact that my margin of error was about 4 feet, and I'm sure that the hash was right there on the other side of the fence, or maybe I was standing on it. Either way, I was there, it was there, and I was really, really close.

2013-04-21 38 -121 [[7]] I was out in Rancho Cordova anyway and saw that this hash was about 9 miles away. It was a really pretty, quiet spot at the back of a parking lot.

2013-09-27 38 -121[[8]] Residential street in Lodi, CA.

2013-11-09 38 -121[[9]] Posh ranchette neighborhood off of highway 12.

Not Attempted

2013-10-08 37 -121 [[10]] In my old neighborhood. I had a bike stripped and mostly stolen less than a block from here.

2013-09-09 38 -120 [[11]] Foiled by my bronchitis-ridden husband.

2012-11-01 37 -120[[12]] - This one was in a dairy effluent pit. Didn't go near it.
