Our new family outing adventure past-time...

Geo-cashing!!!

It was a lot of fun!  We found our first one within walking distance
 from our house!

Our treasure...little baby feet pin.


All we had were stickers that Canyon made last year in school to leave as our return treasure.

The next one was a bust.  Couldn't find it.  I don't know if it was because we are using the garmin as our GPS, or if they all do this, but it could say 200 feet away one moment and 20 feet away the next.  Even if you haven't moved at all!  


#3 was a find though!

 

Yea!  Sahara found this one and dogtag style necklaces were in it :)


The next 3 were a bust.  Especially since it had rained pretty good the day before and we were out in the mud.  Yep!  Truck got stuck!  We had to wait for over 30 minutes for a friend of Jared's with a 4X4 to come an rescue us.



The more I turned the tires, the more we slid sideways toward the ditch!


Malaki went with us, but we probably wont take him again.  He was just a nervous wreck with us in and out of the truck so much.

Home to wash up from all the mud and some lunch and we were off again.  

Didn't find the one here, but did find an old nest :)


After 5 more tries, we found another.


Nothing was in it but the log sheet so we signed it and added a sticker for the next person.


We stayed within 5 miles of the house and hit 12-15 spots (only finding 4).  But it was something to do and only cost us gas money.  We have an account on geocashing.com and logged our finds.  Looking at the map, we could try to hit 12-15 every weekend for a year and still not make it out of town!!
