Well the Hanover trip, wasn’t what I expected.  We got there and a group of about 33 met up.  The first few caches went great, but then it started to turn into more of a mission, than an actual fun event.  People rushing ahead, and bailing before the rest of us got there.  Pushing caches back in so far, that we couldn’t get to it, ripping apart trees and vines, looking for caches, and the best of all….  Logging finds they didn’t find.  We decided after 14 finds, to do our own thing.  I’m glad we tried it, but this type of Caching, isn’t for us.  We had a great time, finding roadside caches, on the way back to Guelph.  We ended up with 21 Caches, that we actually found.

Well, it’s been well over a week since I last wrote here.  Geocaching is turning out to be a blast.  In this time, we’ve placed our own cache, in the Grange Rd. Park.  We’ve had 2 First to finds, and found a total of 17. Weather has been pretty miserable, which is the only thing that’s been holding me back from finding more.  That, and maybe the lack of new cache’s in the area.  I picked up 3 Ammo boxes, so we’ll either hide 2 more and replace the container for the first.  Or hide 3 more.  I broke Kaitlynn’s EPCOT pin that she wanted to use as a travel bug, so now I’ll have to grind off the edges and drill a hole in the pin to attach the Travel Bug tag.  Christopher is going to use a Mickey car, and have his quest to send it back to Disney World.  Not sure what me and Sherry will be using yet.  Weather should be warmer this weekend to get back out. Last weekend it was -30C with the windchill, but that’s didn’t stop us from finding a bunch of new caches.  I’m sure we’ll have a great time with this hobby.

Well, I’ve came across a new Hobby. “Geocaching” And I think this one will takeoff.  We bought a new Garmin Nuvi 250 GPS Yesterday, to compare to the Mio I got for christmas, and the Garmin wins, hands down.  I’m not sure yet how well it will work for Geocaching, but I still have the other 2 Garmin’s the eTrex and the 12XL, but both are really outdated.  SInce I’m going on nights for work this week, we will no doubt be starting to find Geocaches in the area next weekend, weather permitting of course.  We’ve also made a cache of our own, and will be hiding that in the very near future.  The kids seem excited about it, and I’m sure We’ll have a great time.  I’ll be posting out adventures and hunts on here as a blog as well. The Blog has been dead for the past year, so it’s time to revive it. Stay tuned.
