I've created a Craigslist ad for this date: http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/eve/2574255811.html
Current Location is unknown as i'm editing this before the GeoHash is available.
Expected Weather: 92° and sunny. 30% chance of rain.
If you're interested in going, visit the Linked Craigslist ad and email me!
Aug 13, 2011
In the driveway of 4592 Toni Dr, Dayton, OH 45417
Expected weather: 80° and sunny (evening showers, though)
So who's coming?
May 28, 2011
Will this be a yearly event? My popping in here to look for co-hashers?
Maybe this time it will be different.
Hash location is accessible and just 3 miles from my house.
Follow the link for more details.
June 26, 2010
It's been so long, where did everyone disappear to?
Well, the annual Origins Game Fair is going on in Columbus this weekend., butI couldn't go this time :-(
At least the geohash location is easily accessible, let's have our own gaming event!
Springboro OH, in a parking lot just off I-75. Be there!
May 30, 2009
It's that time again...
This one's on OH-4, just off Harshman
Anyone planning to be there? Any recommendations for nearby alternate spots?
There is the school (Mad River, I think) and nearby eateries (China Buffet)
and the weather should be nice.
Any takers?
