User:Darcy

From Geo Hashing

Darcy lives in Berkeley. However, she is originally from Los Angeles and attended the very first meetup there. Looking forward to more in the future, in northern California, southern California, and possibly even some in the middle.

(Also, she doesn't actually own a handheld GPS unit. The car GPS is a poor substitute, sadly.)

[edit] Other Notable Geohashes

I made it within fifty feet of the Cambridge geohash for Tuesday, 6 August 2008 by complete coincidence while I was out running in the morning, and only discovered this late in the evening. Map evidence:

I think this is probably extra deserving of the Curse of Unawareness ribbon, since I could have gone right through it if I'd known it was there!

Darcy earned the Curse of Unawareness Consolation Prize by reaching the (52, 0) geohash on 2008-08-05 without knowing it was there.
