Plans

I intend to paint maple leaves on my face, go to the geohash around noonish, and decamp to a picnic area. Does anyone know of a nearby park with somewhat weather-resistant picnic facilities? None of Malkin, Memorial and Balaclava appears to have picnic tables, but Malkin looks the most picnic-friendly. I have tarps. -Robyn 16:19, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

[comments redacted --- I have been informed that 40 blocks (up and over a rather tall hill) does not meet any reasonable definition "near". And, oddly enough, we are going against Geohashing tradition by using a reasonable definitions of "near".] --Wade 17:06, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm thinking of biking it. I have lots of transit-bike hashes, but the only one I biked to 100% was a no trespassing hash. It takes me 30 minutes to get downtown, and about 1:15 to get to UBC, so it should only be an hour's ride or so. I doubt more than an hour and a half. -- Rhonda 16:35, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm biking it too. It's right on the bike route by our house. Also, it's Canada Day. Any bookable picnic will be booked. -Robyn 16:57, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Ok. I'm planning on leaving home at 11, so I should be there 12:15 or 12:30, roughly. -- Rhonda 17:43, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

It's a Canada miracle! See you all at Collingwood and 37.5st at noon! -- [[user:thepiguy]] 16:58, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I have plans for the day, but I hopefully should be there later in the afternoon. - Elbie 17:39, 1 July 2010 (UTC) My plans should end around 1ish, so, being bikeless and UPassless, I'll do this one as a walkhash. I'll probably be there at 2 unless I postpone the walk to coordinate some company for the trek. - Elbie 18:18, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Aiming to be there around 13:00 to 13:30. -Srs0 18:44, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
