From Geo Hashing

I live south of Hillsboro, Oregon. The border between Portland and McMinnville is very close to me.

I've now done well-documented expeditions to both nearby graticules, and have several poorly documented ones to my name as well. Documentation level varies, but has improved with the addition of yet another AA battery consuming device, namely, a digital camera, to our household electronics.
