Mon 21 May 2012 in 43,-87: 43.4795496, -87.6426083 geohashing.info google osm bing/os kml crox

Location

This is a placeholder for four possible graticules

I live a couple of miles from the 43,-88 origin so any of these four are candidates.

Participants

RocketMac
Maybe you!

Planning

This is the first Geohashing Day since I started, so I'm really looking forward to this!

Epic Fail

Sadly I forgot about the date until the next day. In the morning, I had checked the coordinates but when I saw my candidates wouldn't be easily reachable, I put it out of my mind.

I was really overbooked this day but if I had remembered, I would have tried. *sigh*

(Lack of) Achievements

RocketMac earned the It's a kitty consolation prize

by being so distracted as to forget to go to the (42, -87) geohash on 2012-05-22.
