...iheartgeocaching...

So let me blog about my *new* favorite hobby. GEOCACHING. I absolutely love geocaching. I actually never tried geocaching before I got my own GPS for Christmas. In fact, getting the GPS with my Dad was such a hilarious experience. Here we were the day after Christmas driving up and down Eastern in Vegas trying to find this GPS place. We probably passed it 5 times, but they didn't have a sign from the street and it ended up being this obscure little warehouse type of place. Go figure. You needed a GPS to find the GPS store.

Last weekend I went geocaching with Dora and Philip a little bit. I didn't take pictures the time we went out before. I should have....that time left us with some pretty crazy experiences like (Dora and Philip-NOT ME) trying to break into an old one hour photo drive by booth and turning over trash cans in the parking structure at Birch Street.

Dora and I found a couple and then Philip joined us to find one after lunch. 4 finds our of 6 isn't too bad for newbies.



So this is a picture of our first find of the day. It was a micro and the log was stuffed into this tube attached to a key chain that looked like poop. It was under a light post in a shopping center (I guess that's actually pretty common). That's Dora's fancy car GPS...that actually does latitude and longitude.




Our second find was entitled "Not Quite Escher". It was hidden under a staircase (hence the clue) and Dora thought it was rat poison (I actually touched rat poison the first cache I ever found).
The items in the cache are left to be taken and traded.



Our next one was actually a magnetic hide-a-key in this railing. That's my cutie GPS! =)
















We found this one....not under a bridge but behind some green....well what do you call these green post things at parks??
