Geocaching
So my friend Justin started this thing called geocaching which is pretty much an outdoor treasure hunt for shit all over... the website gives this description:
Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, with a strong sense of community and support for the environment.
it sounds SO cool and his pictures are so fun! I think it's a cool way to get to know the place where you live and perhaps other areas. it doesn't cost anything, you just have to have your own GPS device but Justin said if you buy a cheapo one it will work. Or mayeb you can go half and half with someone and go together.
Anyhoo, here's the main website. You can put in your zip code and find geocaching in your area.
So cool! I think I'm going to go along with Justin once, it sounds SO cool.
