Geocaching
Well, It's time to introduce my blogging friends to Geocaching. I think Wikipedia gives a great explanation of the sport. "Geocaching game in which the participants use a is an outdoor treasure-hunting Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers (called "geocaches" or "caches") anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook and "treasure," usually toys or trinkets of little monetary value. To
day, well over 350,000 geocaches are currently placed in 222 countries around the world." I was introduced to Geocaching by a close friend at work, code name BTM. This is one of those hobbies that only requires a small upfront investment to get started, after that you can enjoy the thrill of the hunt for nothing more than the cost of replacement batteries for you GPS. My Geo-Name is Noob, and as of today have found 105 caches. I am sure you will hear more about this topic in the futre, so I will keep this post a reasonable length. If you are intrested in getting started in this wonderful sport, just reply to this post and I will be happy to help.

very, very, very cool picture of Missy and Kaitlyn
This was both Missy and Kaitlyn’s first Cache. We walked ½ mile into the woods on a muddy day, with no trail. It was a quite an adventure. I was surprised that Missy was still smiling when I took this picture.
