Location

On a dog playing lawn in Rheydt.

Participants

• NB's mom
• Puppet mastered by NB and pah (prev|next)

Plans

Make NB's mom having a walk to the nearby hash, which is less than a kilometer away from her home.

Expedition

NB and pah sent detailed GeoHashing instructions via messenger to NB's mom. After some initial hesitance, she agreed to try reaching the hash, which was located a short walk from her home.

As proof for the puppet mastering, here the transcript of the message exchange right before she finally started the trip, even though it has been raining all day:

• NB's mom: Ok, I'm now going to the minefield (dog lawn, "Hundewiese"), that you can sleep well tonight.
• NB: (thumbs-up)
• pah : Yippee! (dogface)(smiley)
• NB's mom: That's really a bold task, as the hash lies in the middle of the poo field. I hope you appreciate that!
• NB Sure, we know that!

Shortly afterwards, initial screenshots and pictures were coming in, documenting the successful first GeoHash expedition of NB's mom. Unfortunately, her GPS signal was very bad, resulting in poor proofs. But the spirit was clearly exemplary!
