New GPS

I woke up at like 12:30pm today…lol. I love sleeping in. As much as I told myself I wouldn’t sleep in that late anymore, it’s not really working that good. But hell, I’m on leave so I might as well enjoy it!

I went out to Walmart and bought a new GPS unit. I want to get back into Geocaching…I haven’t done it since last Fall. I still have some things to learn about it I guess…it’s a bit more complicated than my old unit was. I went out to find a Geocache and almost got lost in the process…haha. If you want to know what the hell I’m talking about, go to www.geocaching.com. It’s basically a treasure hunt…yes, for real. Someone with a GPS goes out, literally anywhere, and hides something. It could be under water, under a bridge, in an open field, buried somewhere, in someone’s backyard, in a city, anywhere!. After they hide it, they record the coordinates on their GPS, and post it on the website. Users of the site browse for the geocache, go find it, and then sign the logbook that’s in each one. Of course, they have a GPS also in order to find it. It’s really pretty neat. They usually are stuffed with prizes, so the general rule is take one item out, and leave one item in the cache, and then hide it where you found it again. Then, another person comes along and does the same thing, etc…try it!

After I got back from Geocaching, I rented a movie and made some supper. Sometime soon I have to pack some more stuff to take to Minot with me. I’m excited to get out there…but not so excited for the drive itself. Just by researching the area, it seems almost identical to central Maine. We’ll see…!
