geocaching

Posted by mountainmelody On 3/19/2009 09:28:00 AM
Some of my friends have become obsessed with geocaching.

Basically, you spend hours driving around everywhere looking in random places for hidden containers
like this
and this
and the tiny little black thing in this picture.
Then you sign the paper inside and mark your find online.

Sometimes you even see interesting sights along the way.
Altogether, I find geocaching mildly interesting, but I think I prefer hiking or playing on the internet. :)

    I would be afraid that someone would shoot me when I was poking around in unusual places looking for the things in geocaching. So, I will stick to snapping shots of places where I feel safe!!

    Nice shot of an unusual yard animal.

    Geocaching...It's an interesting idea but I don't have enough hours in the day to get done what Needs to be done, much less I Want to be done, so your geocaching friends have nothing to fear from me.

    I am not obsessed. I can quit anytime I want to. Got to go, think I am getting a text.

    Hm. I had never heard of geocaching. I still don't quite get it. Is it just for fun? Need more info. Very interesting.

    "hiking and playing on the Internet" are the two main components of geocaching. And we're not obsessed, but we did get another FTF (First to Find) this morning before work.

    Oh, no. I'm going to pretend like I didn't read this, click on the link, and become very intruigued. I don't think I have room for another obsession.
