Expedition
(Bo's POV) Because 2009-11-28 35 -84 failed in terms of obtaining a Midnight Geohash, I was saddened and needed desperately to acquire the achievement. Luckily, Chelsea had told me earlier in the day that she wanted to go hashing some time. Since now I had my mind on hashing, I decided to look up today's coordinates. Usually, I check the Cleveland, TN page first, but the hashpoint was too far to the west. Fortunately, that meant that the coordinates for the Knoxville, TN graticule was quite near to me, which proved to be true.
Thus, die Ekspedisie:
- Again, we used good, ole Snowball to carry us all around. We left the APT around 23:20 ET. I pulled out the beautiful British voice-lady that is the Garmin, and plugged in the daily coordinates. From there, she lead the way with her commanding feminine voice. After passing some shady areas sprinkled with beautiful houses here and there, we arrived on our road. We parked at a rehabilitation center that was located not 100 yards from our destination. We were almost there.
- On Google Maps (satellite), the location looked to be on the perimeter of a forest. I thought that was too much green to not have been bought by some company. Well, while Ben and I searched the area, we noticed that it had been bought by a company. They were in the midst of making a neighborhood, it seemed. This was good news -- even great news.
