Geocaching

Wow. I just did a search within my blog (with the handy feature at the top of this page) and it turns out that I've never written about Geocaching. ODD. Very odd indeed.

Basically (and I'm not going in depth about this because I'm tired), it's a treasure hunt anybody with a GPS can go on anywhere around the world. People hide things as tiny as a film canister (and smaller) to something as big as a box. Sometimes there are 'treasures' inside with the same idea as "take a penny, leave a penny."

Anywho. I first experienced this game/adventure in Wales with a family friend and I was immediately hooked. I did a few more caches around ABQ when I wrote a Tapa about it for ATM.

So, long story short, I wanted a GPS device of my own so I could go on my own treasure hunts. After posting a couple 'ads' on Craigslist and Freecycle, someone came through. I am now the proud owner of this:



YEA!!!!! Not only do I own it, but I got it at a VERY nice price. I'm very excited about my new toy, so tomorrow my Geocaching begins :)
