Note: The fire at Fisher Plaza on Friday knocked out the server for the site, so if the link doesn't currently work, that's why. Just try again later.Okay, I am always looking for something fun but free to do with the girls. Boy have I hit the jackpot! I was told about Geocaching by a fellow board member on the Parks & Rec Board sometime at the end of last year. Not having a GPS, I pushed it to the back of my mind, and there it sat.
Even when Aaron gave me a GPS for my car for Mother's Day I didn't bring it back out of the corner of my mind it was stashed. Only when I started really playing around with the settings on my GPS in the car and came across the "coordinates" options did I recall what I was told.
So this week I went back to geocaching.com to see what it was all about. Quick to get going, I sent a couple caches to my phone and took the girls off on a hunt. We had a blast with the two quick hunts near our home and immediatly returned home to get more.
That was Thursday. Friday we went geocache crazy. We did as much as the baby would allow...when she began stirring we headed back home. WE ARE HOOKED! I highly recommend this to anyone up for a puzzle, a treasure hunt...or just some relaxed fun. It is so neat finding the hidden containers and being stealth so muggles (bystanders) don't see you.
I highly recommend you check it out if you have a GPS...I have found how we are going to fill our summer! Once we hunt some more down I think we will start hiding some! =)
