Plans

This was my first Geohash and I knew it would be tricky since I didn't have a hand-held GPS unit. I have a GPS in my car which can take coordinates but which has been misbehaving in the sense that the minute you remove it from the power source (ie: the car) it has about 30 seconds before it powers down.

I spent the morning considering how close the hash might be to the road based on the maps and satellite images and then decided to go ahead anyway. I packed some snacks and juice and a mat to sit on and took to the road.
