Geo What??

About 6 months or so ago Ken told us about this new family adventure thing called Geo Caching. It is like a treasure hunt for all ages. I think at the time we looked it up on the Internet but really didn't do much with it. Well as Dan & Roxi were visiting they had actually gone out and done some. I think it might be a bit tabu to blog about but if you don't talk about it how would other people know to get involved. I won't give away anything about the actual hunts so as to keep it fun for others.

You get hints and instructions to look for your finds. We've done three different ones and the finds can range from basic little sized stuff to larger containers. They can also be easily hidden or more difficult.

You never know what you will find and it is all in the fun of the hunt. My kids have completely enjoyed the thrill of the find. Megan has talked a lot about it and asked for other opportunities when possible.

It is a great family adventure and fun for all ages, as we all got into it. We are debating whether or not to get a gps device so that we can go on our own family hunts. It is something outdoors and fun to do. As you can find cache's all over the united states I would say it would also really fun to see new sites on vacation. It is definitely a way to explore new areas.
Who knows where the thrill of the hunt will lead you.
