Are any of you that big into geocaching? I'm quite a fan myself, and it's a great way to have fun with friends and family or just to pass some time. If you aren't at all familiar with this, try this link: http://www.geocaching.com/

Basically, it's a worldwide outdoor treasure hunt. By going to this website, you log in your address and it shows you all the coordinates of available containers or "geocaches" that are close to you. Inside these geocaches are just little treasures or random crap people put in it. You really just play to find the container, not get the prizes (they're usually like little toys and cheap trinkets anyway). There are geocaches all around the world, and if you want, you can hide one too! It's really addicting and most of the fun is finding the geocache. The only materials you'll need is a GPS, a pencil to write a log in the logbook from the geocache, and a membership on the site to record your findings.

If you have any stories or you actually know what this is, feel free to comment!
