Our Double Portion: Geo-caching

Hey look we're alive! We've had an incredible BUSY last few months. I have done 3 photo shoots, we've worked incredibly hard on our garden (which got shredded by pingpong ball/golf ball size hail on June 22) and raising kids and trying to keep up with this house and all the projects that comes with it and Summer time. But I figured I'd better write and keep a little record of what's been going on here.

It's official, we are hooked to Geo-caching! For Father's Day the kids and I got Jer a GPS and stated that we should try out this awesome form of treasure hunting. Unfortunately, Jer had to work on Father's Day (just like Mother's Day - he should get over time on these days as well, just saying!) but we on our first "treasure hunt" on his next day off. Boy, did we have a blast! We ended up doing three hunts in one day and since then have done a handful more. We have managed to get my parents/family hooked and a few of our friends that were visiting. It's a great way to get out and explore our city or our surrounding area.
If you have never tried Geo-caching, you should!!! You'd probably find yourself totally hooked just like us. We did pay to be a premium member with geocache.com (only a small fee) just so we have better maps, etc. But its worth it. If you have a smartphone, you may be able to get a GPS app or something like it....but don't take my word for it. Just something to look into.

Here are some pictures from our "treasure hunts".
