Geocaching





We tried our hand at geocahing again today. We had tried last year and had a horrible time. I was finally able to figure out our gps and how how off it was. We found a couple geological markers and took the known coordinates from those and subtracted how off our gps was.
After we got all the technical stuff figured out, we went out on our own. Never having found a cache /treasure before, we were unsure what to go looking for.
Mike actually figured out our first clue and found the cache. After that, we were hooked. One of our caches actually took us into the library to locate a fake book! It was a lot of fun looking for clues in the library. Felt like characters from the movie National Treasure.

Yay!! I'm so glad you got it all figured out! You guys are going to have so much fun Geocaching. :)
Lee and I were just going for a walk the other day, and I mentioned how we haven't been geogaching for a long time. I guess we're going to have to get back to it!
Hope you had a great weekend! Beth. :)
