Happy Geocaching!!!

We have had fun geocaching (geo-cash-ing). Essentially you go around with a GPS and find caches that have little trinkets in them to trade out. The kids enjoy it and it gives us a change to get out of the house. With the end of a long winter and with finances being a little tight, geocaching is a fun free way to get some good faimly time in.

Here is a picture of Pinkerbelle and Skippy finding a cache hidden under that street light box. This type of cache is a micro-cache.



There are hundreds of thousands of caches around the world. Take a look at their website and sign up for a free account to start hunting. It's a great way to get outside and have some fun with the kids.

You can learn more at geocaching.com.
