Hello. We are actually a geohashing team composed of two brothers from [[Jacksonville, Florida|Orange Park, Florida]]. The one brother is Chris, a student at Georgia Tech who currently lives on campus in downtown [[Atlanta, Georgia]]. The other brother, Nick, is a student at Georgia State University and he also lives in university housing. Being brothers and living in such proximity, (and having only one car between us) we make one hell of a geohashing duo.

There exists also a third brother; [[User:Mr. Bow Tie|Mr. Bow Tie]].

[[Image:Arrow2.png|12px]][[2009-01-08 33 -84]] - A no-batteries speed-racer geohash.
  
=== Goals ===
+
[[Image:Arrow4.png|12px]][[2009-01-02 30 -81]] - Actual hashpoint inside of a house.
  
 +
[[Image:Arrow2.png|12px]][[2009-01-01 30 -81]] - Our first hash, on New Years Day!
  
We'd like to achieve our [[Origin_Geohash|Origin]] and [[Displaced_Origin_Geohash|Displaced Origin]] hashes. As we are not twins, and were in fact born years apart, it is a fantastic stroke of luck that our origin hashes are only a few hundred yards from each other.

[[Image:Geohashing sign.jpg  |thumb|right|Nick's fantastic artistry.]]
 
  
We're keeping our eyes out for closer hashes that can hold the opportunities for [[Walk_geohash|Walk]], <s>[[Public_Transport_Geohash|Public Transport]]</s> and <s>[[Bicycle_Geohash|Bicycle]]</s> geohashes.
+
<div style="border:2px solid #88d;background-color:#eef;padding:6px">
  
We'd like to complete a [[Reverse_Regional_achievement|Reverse Regional]] Achievement for the Jacksonville, FL  and Atlanta, Ga graticules.
+
== Pictures ==
*For Jacksonville, this will require hashes in the Florida counties of Clay, <s>Duval</s>, Nassau and St. Johns, as well as hashes in Charlton and Camden counties in Georgia.
 
  
*For Atlanta, this'll take <s>Fulton</s>, <s>Dekalb</s>, Cobb, Clayton, <s>Paulding</s>, Polk, <s>Carroll</s>, <s>Douglas</s>, Heard, Troup, Meriwether,<s> Coweta</s>, Pike, Lamar, Monroe, Butts, Spaulding, Henry, Newton, <s>Fayette</s>, <s>Gwinnett</s>, and <s>Rockdale</s> counties. This could take a while…
+
also to come!
  
As soon as we can convince someone to let us kidnap them, the <s>[[Drag-Along Geohash|Drag-Along]]</s> achievement.

=== Other Notes ===
+
|width="2%"|
So I was bored the other night and started browsing through past coordinates in graticules I've been. I found that the [[Jacksonville, Florida|Jacksonville, Florida]] geohash for Thursday, October 12, 2006 was just under a kilometer from my house, and in the middle of a nearby road[[user:Woodveil/stats|.]] Moreover, I certainly drove directly over the hash twice, once on the way to school and once on the way back, and in those days I carpooled with another girl who went to my high school, making her an unwitting drag-along. Oh the [[Curse of Unawareness|Curse of Unawareness]].

About

Lol-asg.png 34 / m / 33,-84
Hello. We are actually a geohashing team composed of two brothers from Orange Park, Florida. The one brother is Chris, a student at Georgia Tech in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The other brother, Nick, is a student at Georgia State University. Being brothers and roommates, we make one hell of a geohashing duo. We are currently on hiatus.

There exists also a third brother; Mr. Bow Tie.
