Expedition
I don't usually forget that I'm geohashing when I'm geohashing, but as I peddled past the Lloyd district and up towards Mississippi-Albina I found myself thinking "well, this is a pleasant bike ride, but now where am I going, again?" Well, today's hashpoint was only a few hundred meters from where I was born, so perhaps I was bicycling back towards my birthplace purely on instinct, like a salmon navigating by smell back to the pool where he was hatched. But, well -- probably not.
The hashpoint is on an ordinary residential street. I didn't see any evidence of geohashers before me, and I chided myself for neglecting to bring chalk in case someone came after me.
I continued the bicycle ride to pick up a book at Powell's, and then came home. Total round trip: 11 miles.
