From Geohashing
Revision as of 02:45, 2 June 2010 by imported>Bookworm656 (I moved! And got a driver's license! :))

Bookworm656 usually lives in the 35,-97 graticule. She would really like to start geohashing, and finally has a driver's license! However, she's in the 39,-105 graticule (Denver) for the summer and will probably be too busy to geohash. (Too bad, because this graticule is probably more interesting than "Ooh look, a field! Ooh look, another field!") However, she WILL be geohashing once she gets home in August! (Maybe even some by bike)

Geohashes attempted or not-quite-attempted

  • 2010-03-06 35 -97: The hash was 50 ft into Lake Thunderbird and would have been fun to attempt, but we were thwarted by driver's license issues.
  • 2010-03-27 35 -97: 15-20 minutes from my house. On a road. But no one wanted to give me a ride. :(
  • 2010-04-05 35 -97: 2.5 miles away, in a somewhat sketchy neighborhood near my middle school. If I had known, I would have gotten there no matter what it took. (Car, bike, and transit were all possibilities.) But I forgot to check the map. :( Do I get the Honorable Mention Curse of Unaware Semi-Honorable Couch Potato-ness Achievement now?

Hashscots!

Once I do finally get to a hash, I think I'll try to have a hashscot, and it will be one or more of the following:

  • 8"-tall blue dragon
  • 4"-tall black and white dragon
  • Giant screaming Woot monkey with red cape
  • Screaming Woot monkey with white cape
  • Screaming Woot monkey with tie dye cape
  • Screaming Woot monkey with Hawaiian/psychedelic cape
  • Screaming Woot monkey with glow-in-the-dark fur and red cape (coming soon!)

There is a definite possibility of me not being able to decide on just one and going around with four monkeys hanging from my backpack in various places and at least one dragon pinned to it. If I do that, I will be very easy to find if I ever make it to an actual meetup!
