A few years ago Jethenro and his sisters became interested in a new hobby called
GEOCACHING
It is a free real-world outdoor treasure hunt. Players try to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, using a smartphone or GPS and can then share their experiences online..
(description from the official website)
But the interest waned when we did not own a reliable GPS, and could not locate any geocache sites.
Now that he has a reliable GPS, and the interest in searching, he decided to pick up the game again.
On Thursday he had an appointment to get a blood check, and I needed to run some errands. He had pinpointed a few places on his gps, and he found all 5 he was looking for. It is kind of exciting to find one, and see what little treasure there might be in the container, and sign the log book.
Time to plan a trip our direction--there are a million geocaches around here, many placed by Austin!
