I'm an instrument-rated private pilot. I may have to dust off the old license in order to effectively make some of these meetups, given the private-property nature of the several I've tried recently.
I typically bring Once Upon A Time as my game.
Geohash meetups attempted
- 2008-05-24_37_-121 (xkcd) [SCUW] Inadvertently went to the 5/23 location. It was behind private property, inaccessible. Met some very nice ranchers.
- 2008-05-31_37_-121 (xkcd) [SCUW] Was behind private property, inaccessible. Nearby cafe also closed.
- * (xkcd) = Saturday, official xkcd meetup @ 4pm
- * SCUW = Santa Cruz spot under water.
