Geocaching - New Hobby

I think our family has found a new hobby.  It's called geo caching. "Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, with a strong sense of community and support for the environment."  We have only found two so far, but that was with inadequate equipment.  Downloaded the full version on my iPhone today, will try it out tonight.  JS spent a good portion of yesterday hunting with his uncle and cousins so hopefully he can help us out.  He said he found one yesterday that had a snake, yes a real snake, in it.  Not in the actual container, but in the place where the container was hidden.  Last night we found our second one, but it was tricky. JS even had it in his hands at one point and put it back.  Took us 45 minutes and confirmation from someone that had previously found it to realize that was the cache. The hiders are quite sneaky as we are finding out and you really have to think beyond just looking for a "box."  You also have to get over looking like an idiot to random folks...as yesterday we were wandering all over a grocery store parking lot and the day before up and down the side of a busy highway! LeAnne left for Camp Hope on Sunday, so she hasn't joined in on the fun yet.  Hopefully, she will have as much fun and it will be a great, inexpensive family hobby.
