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.

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.

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

Lucky91xj (talk) earned the No trespassing consolation prize

Succeeded
2013-02-23 38 -121 [[7]] 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 [[8]] 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[[9]] Residential street in Lodi, CA.
2013-11-09 38 -121[[10]] Posh ranchette neighborhood off of highway 12.
Not Attempted
2013-01-04 37 -120[-120] - Reasonably accessible, had I not been exceedingly tired. Home was in the opposite direction, so I did not visit this hash.
2013-10-08 37 -121 [[11]] In my old neighborhood. I had a bike stripped and mostly stolen less than a block from here.
2013-09-09 38 -120 [[12]] Foiled by my bronchitis-ridden husband.
2012-11-01 37 -120[[13]] - This one was in a dairy effluent pit. Didn't go near it.
