I discovered this awesome fun thing called Geocaching from one of my cousins. It has been around for a while but we just found it. You can join for free at www.geocaching.com. You have to have some sort of GPS device to play and there are free iphone apps for it. It is like a nationwide hide and seek. It is super fun and some of the ones we found today were very clever in the way they were hidden and the you just signed your name and date it
and then we found some that were more kiddie and had prize exchanges(little things like cars and other small trinkets) you take something and replace it with something you brought. There are several locations at Faulkner Park but be ready to go into the woods. We had a great day and we will definitely be geocaching regularly. We might even plan a geocaching vacation this summer.
It is great fun for all ages. Would be great for a youth group at a church or anyone.

Looks fun! Michael and Leah were doing this about 3 years ago, but we have never had a GPS device or an iphone, so we have never been able to do it. Maybe one day......
You know, Larry has a tomtom GPS for his truck, but I never realized you would do it w/ ANY GPS device!! I've heard of it a million times but didn't realize we could do it! I'll have to go look at the site!
