Expedition

Some field scenery from Valtimo.

Pastori's food supplies had gotten low and he had to go to the store. Pastori noticed that this day's hashpoint in our own graticule was only about 10 extra kilometers and additionally the point seemed to be right in the middle of the road.

The trip went fast in a slight rain. Our hashpoint was really on the edge of the road and we could get 1,4 meters accuracy when sitting in the car, which was good, because the rain had grown stronger.

Then we visited the supermarket and went home to wait for some additional geohashing operations. Today's expedition was one of the easiest in our geohashing career. It might even have been too easy: 50 km driving with a car, which is not a distance at all in this corner of Finland. Probably there will be some more challenging targets awaiting us in the future, and for them Pastori will prepare by getting his day nap every day and eating the healthy produce from The Wife's garden.
