I found my first geocache :) Im hooked-

“Wohoo! I had to scramble through bushes the made my arms itch >< I had to wade through blackberries (and eat them as I went) and it was less then a mile from my house WOHOO! I had no idea there were so many fools in my area doing this geocaching thing. Its fun!”

“Welcome to the obsession.”

“It is addictive. If I can just find my GPS, I will be going soon.”

“Isn't it ironic that you lost your GPS?”

“I went out my first time and found 2 or 3, and had a great time. But for some odd reason, I haven't had any desire to go out and do it again.”

“They do it alot in Hoosier National Forest too.


I never got into it but will try it someday.

“Free, it is fun, ain't it?

I just found out an area park ranger is one of 3 people in the Minnesota Parks system given the task of coming up with "rules" allowing placement of geocaches in MN state parks. I'm very happy to hear this! The state parks removed any that were in the parks a year or so ago.... with the admonition that none be placed there in the future.”

“I found a geocache website a couple of month ago and thought this looked like fun. Yeah, belive it or not, I had no idea what everyone was talking about when they talked about geocache.

The website looked a little overwelming for me, I think all this is probably much easier if you see it hands on. I guess its because i still don't know all those terms you geocache people are using.”

“we just made plans to go this weekend as a family. we have one that is in our local park. so we can BBQ and hang out.

sonds like a great thing to do as a family!”

“maple, family....OMG, I do have a family. That's a great idea. I think my kids may would love this. Maybe even my husband.”

“that was a big reason for us to get it. i thought it would be cool to get out into the woods and do a search.


any new toy that can bring a family together and get outdoors and always a good thing!!”

“Yes, switchback, it is ironic I lost my GPS.

But I figure the GPS knows exactly where it is. ;-)”

“i found my first geocache tonight! It was alot of fun!”

“I havent gone geocaching in a while. but heck, I just figured out yesterday how to upload maps to my device after having it for over a year...gosh, guess I am a little slow.”

“Hey Free, what have you done with Crazy Mike? Could you unchain him every once in awhile so he can stay in touch with his TT friends?”

“Mike is too busy playing with his spiders to come talk. :O”

“Give him some Balvenie, quick!”
