I live in Virginia Beach, Va; but the graticule for that is mostly Atlantic Ocean and I don't have access to a boat. I get the feeling I'm going to be doing most of my hashing in the Norfolk, VA graticule.

I love XKCD and read the one about geohashing a while back, but I only just found out how much it had caught on. I'm a geocacher and was looking for something else to invest my time in, so here we go.

How I spend my time

• wife and 2 kids (StrongAbby 6, Stuntman 2)
• church
• geocaching (under Teamday)
• camping
• reading
  • I'm working on reading Time's 100 greatest novels

Goals to work Towards

• I'm thinking about a hashscot. Would have to be something interesting...
• Getting a hash in the Virginia Beach graticule. Level of difficulty: not owning a boat
• Earn various Achievements
  • camping
  • circus
  • Picnic
  • GeoSquishy
  • Drag Along
• Earn various Gratuitous Ribbons
