Welcome to the world of geocaching! If you've done it before, you know how much fun it can be. If you haven't, check it out! I've quickly become addicted to this activity, and it may be the one that finally changes my mind about whether I should have an iPhone. My good friend Devin downloaded a geocaching app this week, and we have been having a (literal) field day with it. Something about it just strikes this chord with me. I think it has something to do with running around nature on a treasure hunt. Geocaches can be found all over the place though, from urban areas to remote wilderness. The cool thing about searching for these caches is that you discover all of these hidden places that other people find cool or interesting, so it is extremely likely that you'll find a fantastic spot in your neighborhood that you may not even know existed.
Really, this is the perfect activity when you have nothing better to do with your time. Already it has led to some fantastic views, some frenzied searching on lunch breaks, and creating a geocache of our own. This particular one has a few really cool items inside, but the best part is the cache itself... constructed from a bison skull and bones that we found in our travels around Catalina Island. So if you have some time, check out geocaching, and if you have a good deal of ambition and way too much time on your hands, come find the one that we set out on Catalina Island!
