A little over a year ago, on our Spring Break, we explored the world of geocaching. We had just gotten new smart phones, and with that, the ability to have portable GPS. I had several friends who loved geocaching, so I thought I would give it a try with the kids. Unfortunately, although we had lots of fun looking for our first cache at Holmberg Park, Gretchen picked up a tick on her head during that search, and we never really did it again. But this year, we are back at it, and this time, more excited than before. The kids understand it more, and we have found lots of caches in our area. We have one of our own ready to hide tomorrow, and have three more in the works that each of the kids are creating. It really is fun, and something the family can do together.
So today, after Austin's cub scout meeting, we decided to find a couple of caches on our way home. One was a traditional cache, and one was a micro cache. The kids are addicted now I think!
