Today's Location: Minneapolis, MN

See Also: Twin Cities, Minnesota

Minneapolis's southwest graticule is at latitude 44, longitude -93. This contains most of Minneapolis and St. Paul, stretching farther south than Mankato, and just as west.

Local Geohashers

FsM lives in Como and has no form of long distance transportation other than the bus, so its just a matter of waiting for the right day...

Rob lives near this and Minneapolis NW, Minnesota, also regrets missing on Saturday, and is keeping his options open for this weekend.

Chris is abysmally busy, and would normally update the daily locations by now, but work is killing him. He'll get to it today, though. He is not planning on attending any geohash until this weekend (May 31st).

Abi lives in south Minneapolis, and will try to make it to the geohashes that don't require expending an excessive quantity of gas to get there. She is sad that it looks like all of Saturday's (May 31st) geohashes are really far away and/or are in farmfields. It looks like due to an error in the DJ coordinates, the Saturday locations have changed since I looked at them this morning. One is in a weird area along the Mississippi, in Northeast Minneapolis. Not sure it's actually accessible, but I might check. It will probably depend on whether it's thunderstorming tomorrow afternoon.

Ford lives in St. Paul and hates to drive. I guess one only has to go on the hash once in a lifetime to be a hashi, though. Or is that hashashin?

Jennifer lives in St. Paul and will be attending when both work, location, and the stars collide. It's more than likely she will be at ones closer to the city than those further out like Saturday's (May 24 2008) location.

Erica actually lives in the SE graticule of the Twin Cities (St. Paul SE, Minnesota), but is open to traveling to other Geo Hashes that are somewhat close by.

Alex lives in South Minneapolis and would love to do this on a Saturday when she can tear herself away from grading papers (which will get much easier in, oh, two weeks).

digory lives here and will attend either these ones or the Minneapolis NW, Minnesota as he has time and they are reasonably accessible (or unreasonably as he has more time)

Michael lives in this graticule, but can't drive like many others, so will attend these or the Minneapolis NW, Minnesota ones if they are close by.

Brendan lives near this graticule and is able to drive anywhere within reason

Joel lives just northwest of Minneapolis but is keeping an eye on this square also.

mike has too many vehicles, but prefers to stick to his bicycle or motorcycle when possible.

Rebecca is starting a job on June 2 requiring her to work at 4 PM. (Boo...)

User:Nick doesn't like paying for gas, but might be willing to drive (relatively) short distances.

Daily Locations

Reached - Joel visited there around lunchtime and felt self-conscious hanging around a residential area.
Also reached by Erica and her cousin Lauren at about 4pm. Lauren took photos.
Erica and her mom are totally taking the excuse to shop. We'll be there sometime in the afternoon/evening. Indication of anyone wanting to meet up will result in a more definite time frame.
UPDATE: Erica's plans fell through.  :-( Oh well. Some other time.
PippaBlue made it to the Sprawl of America and snapped a photo in front of Macy's. Depending on the floor, the actual coordinates seem to have landed somewhere in the middle of men's shirts, the Clinique counter, or luxury bedding.
Jennifer unknowingly achieved the geohash today by pure and utter luck!
A one-time geohasher Rebecca brought her friend Leigh to this location. Noticing the coordinate was on a property line (marked for zoning), and that neither neighbor was home, they walked between the cornfields to the exact spot in the dirt. Pictures are available but uninteresting.
Another local one! I'll be at (or near) this one at around 5 PM on Sunday. -Abi
And I'm going to try to be there, too! -Erica
Successful meetup! Abi, Erica, Ford and Erica's friend Chris (not to be confused with the other Chris) played games in the greenway in the middle of Summit Avenue until we were chased away by the storm.
Successful meetup! Chris and Abi met at approximately 6PM local time. 72.250.19.74 23:18, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
