July Local hashpoints

None that look accessible to me. Jiml 18:07, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Where to plan

With the User:AperfectBot picking up expedition pages, we should move planning to the expedition page as soon as it becomes clear someone might actually go!

Other conversations

Wil: Anyone know why August 17th is "notable?"

admalledd: No idea.

Unless someone can say why it needs to stay, I'm going to be deleting that section at some point. Also, I'll probably be cleaning up the Daily Locations section by moving all of the text below each date to the YYYY-MM-DD_45_-122 pages RSN. Wil 23:06, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the cleanup, Wil. Do you know who has the first geohash in this graticule? --Thomcat 15:11, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Thomcat, Drache and NoTerminal had the first geohash in the world, and they had it in this graticule. :) Wil 16:37, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

I completed my cleanup of the Portland page yesterday. The only thing I noticed that need help with is contacting Erin, who was at the 2008-05-26 geohash and who promised us pictures but never posted any. Wil 16:37, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Damn you all in Portland for having an active location. I am the only local to ever visit a Eugene location... It is hard to go when you know you will be the only one there. Grr.

It's a shame that none of the recent (and not-so-recent) expeditions have been written up so that the rest of us can enjoy reading about them. (Or did nobody actually go? Several people are listed as expressing interest.) Can I please encourage you all to write something -- anything! -- about your expeditions? Thanks. -- Benjw 17:59, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

I second Benjw's request. Make quickie expedition pages showing whether or not you reached the coordinates, just so that we an count you in the global statistics. -Robyn 17:17, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

City picture

Hey Portland graticule residents! I took a couple pictures of the city while I was there, and was wondering if you would like to put one on your page, as some other graticules have done. I have two options: [1] and [2]. I would resize the image (since they are way too big for inclusion on a graticule page) and possibly crop it (if desired). Let me know if you are interested, or feel free to download either one and post it yourself! --aperfectring 00:37, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Cool! Thanks! I prefer the second one. I assume I'll be able to convince iPhoto to do some processing for us. Jiml 04:47, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Just make sure they are really of Portland. Vancouver and Seattle know why I'm saying this. :-P -Robyn 06:44, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

I don't have to make sure of it. I didn't travel to Vancouver (BC or WA) or Seattle, and have never done so when I have had this camera. Since these pictures came off of my camera mere minutes before I posted them up here, I don't think I have to worry. =P Feel free to do whatever you want with either photo. --aperfectring 11:56, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

To be scrapped Conversations

Early July

Jul 13 - Century High School, Hillsboro

Just across from Century High school - Southern part of Hillsboro, near TV Highway

Plans moved to: 2009-07-13_45_-122

Jul 18/19 McMinnville

Saturday's hashpoint appears to be up a bit north. Maybe doable for me. I'm not sure. I didn't look too closely.

Moon Day McMinnville

Off in the woods west of Forest Grove. I don't think I'm hiking there. - Jim

-Saturday meetup looks like it's in a field or some sort of undeveloped land east of Estacada. Public road access to within a mile or so, not sure after that.
-Can't commit to going just yet, but it looks doable.
