The Tale

Ilya, Jason, & Sam's tale: We're all students at Stanford and decided it would be fun to go out for dim sum and then go geohashing. I was a bit of a drive, but quite an excellent place to visit. Jason had apparently missed the geohashing XKCD, so this was technically a drag-along geohash :P We got there around 4:00 p.m., took some pictures, and spelled out XKCD with pieces of sticks. On the hike back to the car, we met Graham, easily identifiable by his XKCD shirt -- nice.
