Plan

Bishop_Wash: It seems that when a geohash is easily accessible and close to me I'm scheduled to leave town that afternoon. So it was with today's location. I had an afternoon flight to LA so the 4:00 meetup was not possible. Looking at the map the spot appeared to be in someone's front yard. I thought I could obtain it when I went home to pick-up my wife for the airport. The LA geohash also looked obtainable and near our hotel. A possible multihash achievement.

Expedition

The geohash was easily reached. I parked off the street between two houses. My GPS read 25 feet to the location, so close to actually being in the street. I'd prepared an explanation and printed a page from the wiki site in case an owner came out asking questions. It was not necessary. I hurried to the spot and took a picture of the GPS reading. Then I turned around and took a picture of the view. This was a prime spot for multiple honorable mention couch potato achievements.
