Geocache adventure!

Today, Darbie, Atom (still in mama's tummy), and I drove up to West Linn to meet with the Versoza Grandparents for a little outdoors trek. We were out geocaching, and for those who don't know what Geocaching is, simply put: "Geocaching is an outdoor treasure hunting game in which the participants use a GPS receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers (called "geocaches" or "caches") anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook and "treasure," usually toys or trinkets of little value." (thanks to wikipedia for that definition)

We went out with 3 locations, found one, gave up on one (a lot of hills for our group), and one was out of our area, (lunch became a bigger goal at this point).

Here is a picture of the one we found, full of trinkets:



It was a lot of fun and we ended up having a great time tromping through the wilderness, and what a great day for it too.




-Till next time!
