A friend of mine recently informed me about this amazing world-wide hobby, that started in 2000, called Geocaching. It's basically like a modern day treasure hunt using a GPS. There are hidden caches all over the world for you to find. You can find them near your own house or if you go on vacation somewhere, they are literally hidden all over the world! Caches can vary. Some are just a small container that holds a log book for you to sign once you find it, while others may have actual treasures in them such as, trackable Geocoins, toys, books, candy, cds, etc... It is common ettiquite(sp) however, that if you take a treasure you leave another treasure in it's place for others to find. I've even found a series near me that I can't wait to do set up like the board game Clue, where each cache contains a person card, a room card and a weapon, then the last cache is called "case closed" and this is where you go last to find out if you've correctly guessed the suspect. This would be a riot with teams, to see who can solve the case first!!
If you're interested you can read all about it and find caches in your area at www.geocaching.com I can't wait to get started.
