Geocaching

So my cousin Jillian and her fiancee told me about this great new thing that I just started researching and looking into.

It is called "Geocaching." "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." -description taken directly from the Geocaching home page.

So at first I thought it was just in Maine (this is how he proposed to her). But now I have discovered that it is a worldwide activity and some people are REALLY into it.

I am looking into starting my own geocaching adventure this weekend. I don't know what I am going to go after or what have you but I am excited about the idea of going on a treasure hunt.
