Hello! I'm Sam, a newbie geohasher. I saw the comic around a year ago, and thought the idea was fascinating. Alas, I had neither a GPS system nor a smart phone to use. But all that's changed now! I now have a phone capable of getting me there, and so I intend to start soon.

I reside in the Paris, Texas graticule, though I've yet to make a single hashpoint. My inaugural expedition will probably be next weekend, I'm hoping.

I, as a person, am quite boring. A high school student at a local high school, etc. etc.

It's not likely I'll spend too long geohashing in this area- there's not a lot of activity here, and I've seen a great deal of the graticule already-, but hopefully I end up in a college in a nice geohashing area.

More to come after my inaugural outing, I hope.
