Grandpa and Grandson go Geocaching

Tanner and I have discovered a new hobby/activity - Geocaching. Great fun. We took advantage of some warmer January temperatures and used my Garmin GPS to locate some small treasures. Here we are at Adena Park in Central KY looking for a cache using the GPS and the hint provided on the website. We actually didn't find this one (it was dusk and the darkness quickly ensued and forced us to leave without a find. But to paraphrase General Douglas MacArthur said as he left the Philippines in WW II "We shall return".

After our 1st day of finds (we found 2), on the way home Tanner said "Grandpa, this is way more fun than my PSP." Makes a grandpa very happy.

If you want to know more about Geocaching check out the website at www.geocaching.com - But watch out, you might like it, become obsessed and lose your job and wife/husband because that's all you want to do ;-) It's strangely addictive (at least to us).
