User:Dunstergirl
I'm Lelani. I have loved maps and knowing where I am on the planet since I was a teen and got lost with my mom and sister in some Colorado wilderness. So when I stumbled on geohashing I KNEW it was for me. And it gave me an excuse to buy a GPS unit, which I've wanted forever, just never had a good enough reason to spend the money.
I live in rural British Columbia, in the Grand Cache graticule. Haven't figured out (yet) how to link it properly, and Grand Cache is a day's drive from here (on good roads) so it's a bit hard to relate to the name. Just a figment of geography.
In real life I am part-owner of the Dunster General Store, so you might find me behind the counter there a couple days a week (or more, depending) and I edit/write about climate change and related issues the rest of the time (three IPCC reports under my belt already and booked for AR5, yeehaw).
Hobbies/activities include survival (firewood, snow removal, etc. etc. living here is NOT easy), chickens (free-range, ongoing natural selection experiment for the past decade or so), genealogy, surviving single motherhood with teenage daughter, and contributions to the community I live in.
hahah first success: 2012-03-04 53 -119. Should have just used my compass, would have done better.
And second: 2012-04-03 52 -119. Many trucks and a random hitchhiker :-)
Third: 2012-04-18 53 -120. In honour of my mother's 81st birthday today. Fewer trucks.
