Warning: Not a real doctor.

Greetings! I'm Dr. Canadian Ninja, which I am well aware is a mouthful, so I ask most people to call me Geoff, though various short versions are fine. I have a tendency to ramble on and on, generally only stopping when someone points out that I've been going on for far too long, or as is often the case, I realize I've been going on for the last thirty minutes without so much as a breather. This makes Skype rather entertaining at times.

Geohashes

Most recent first.

9. 2012-06-02 The rural road that wasn't. Hash not reached.

8. 2012-05-21 Happy Geohashing Day from Jacksonville!

7. 2012-05-14 Mission City? That graticule that is 98% water? I will jump on any chance I get!

6. 2012-05-13 Same hash week, same hash graticule!

5. 2012-05-08 One month later and one year older, a successful hash at Haller Airpark!

4. 2012-04-08 Georgia can go to hell.

3. 2012-04-01 A trip to Faver Dykes State Park takes a turn for the worse; hash not reached.

2. 2012-03-18 Needed to get out of the house and local hashes were in the Atlantic. Road trip!

1. 2012-03-10 Very first geohash, entered TPC at Sawgrass before security didn't like my presence. Still, a successful trip!

Goals

  • Complete a minesweeper achievement using Lake City, Florida as the center. Unfortunately, there's a whole lot of nothing, for the most part, which seems like it might be dull.
  • Complete hashes in five different states/provinces.
  • Leave an entire deck of cards as markers. See below.
  • Complete a reverse regional achievement in the Jacksonville graticule at the county level.

Markers

Where possible, I'd like to leave markers of these expeditions. My chosen sign stems from a recently started collection of playing cards. The cards are shuffled before the top one is picked, so there's no particular order to the cards. On one side, a link to geohashing.org/marker. On the other side are the coordinates reached.
