On The First Day Of Vacation


Last week "DL" left a "Garmin eMap " on my desk. He had heard me talking about wanting to take the family "Geocaching" and thought it best for me to try out his GPS before dropping cash on something that the family might use to beat me over the head with. "DL" is always looking out for others.
We programmed the unit with a couple of close by waypoints and set out. Both of the cache's were at the park where "H" plays soccer. The first one was hidden under a pile of rocks and contained all kinds of cool stuff focused around a cat theme. "H" took a Pikachu action figure and left in its place a key chain.
The second cache was located in a hole and was a little more on the soggy and moldy side of things than the first find. "The Wife" and "Goose" did an good job of busting through the woods on our electronic treasure hunt, no complaining from either one of them.
Not a bad way to spend a few hours on a windy wintery morning.....

Hi, I'm taking a sports related degree at university and doing a study on various topics around Geocaching such as 'gps system'. I need geocachers from around the world to participate in the study. I use this (gps system) site to find potential contributors, do you know of any other ways I could get input.
