geocaching
geocaching is kind of like a treasure hunt. i became familiar
with it from my uncle jamie. brady and i have been very
interested ever since we accidentally happened upon one
a few weeks ago. what you do is go to the geocache website
and find hidden caches in your area. once you've selected
a few you put the coordinates into your gps device and
follow it to the locations. its really fun. we spent a couple hours
doing it this morning and here are our finds.

of the first geocache. we tried doing this a couple weeks ago
with our iphones, but it wasn't very accurate so we
went and bought a handheld gps and it was much
easier to find the caches.

cache. you aren't supposed to take anything unless you
can leave something of equal or greater value.
since i didn't have anything to leave
i put this TGI fridays wipey back in the container.

it was a brisk "feels like" 27 degrees outside.
while we were out we stumbled upon this geocashe.
it was pretty cool. we weren't even looking for it, but decided to
add our name to the list of people who had previously
found the treasure. it reminded me how fun it is to geocashe
so i think we're going to be more inclined to find some
other ones around richmond.
