Harlequin's Dad is former software geek turned manager, happily married husband and father of Harlequin, Redmond resident and beer drinker. He earned the moniker "Zacksdad" in a D&D campaign years ago at the no longer extant Coyote Games store in Redmond (and hence the current moniker). These days he prefers "casual" games like Settlers of Catan, Condotiere, Ticket to Ride and card games like Pinochle, Cribbage, Hearts and Spades. If he's not doing any of those things on a given weekend, you might find him sailing Puget Sound or reading a book.

GPS is an older Magellan Blazer12, which based on 2008-09-01 47 -122 results appears to have accuracy to about 100 ft.

NB: Yes, I have a boat and it is capable of hosting a fairly large group. I'll be on the lookout of suitable hash locations for a joint expedition (at 6 mph, we can't go far from its base in Shilshole Bay in a reasonable amount of time).

Lives less than a mile from the 2008-07-03 47 -122 location. Is probably older than you (4th oldest geohasher as of 2008-08-27).

Desired Locations

Origin

  • 36.729137°, -122.17901° in the Santa Cruz, California graticule. It is going to be a tough since the Santa Cruz graticule is over 95% Pacific Ocean and these coordinates are 15 miles from the nearest land (the Monterey peninsula).

Displaced Origin

  • 47.729137°, -122.17901° in the Seattle, Washington graticule. Corner of 121st Ave NE and NE 142nd Pl, in the Kingsgate neighborhood of Kirkland.
