Plans

going there in my free afternoon before I collect my kids by their grandmother...

Expedition

Success!

So here is the report:

Today is my afternoon off. And since my children are with their grandmother for the holiday season, I'm supposed to pick them up again. But before that I still have some time to visit this geohash. I drive to the public parking lot of the Husemersee nature reserve. From there I take a leisurely walk a few hundred meters towards the coordinates. The zero point is close, but oh no! I think the spot is in a cow pasture... But when I arrive, the spot is right on the electric fence. So I'm lucky and can go through with my photo session.

Back on the street I see signs that lure me to a coffee shop where ice cream is supposed to be served... I grab the vanilla variety and set off to explore this really beautiful area again. Since the temperatures only reach a maximum of 4 degrees, the ice cream doesn't melt so quickly and I can comfortably enjoy the peace and quiet by the lake. No annoying noises, just a few bird calls here and there. I've also bathed here a few times or come to grill and chill out. The western part of the lake is free for swimming. The rest is a nature reserve. As a child, I could also play ice hockey here on the frozen lake.

On a bench I see the inscription again: "All you have is now..." On my last hike to the 2024-04-13 47 8 Geohash I have already seen the same words! Who does this? What do they mean? Then I see a gnawed tree. A beaver has already done some preliminary work here. Soon this will fall. After a nice ride, I get back to my car and drive to the children.
