Geocaching adventures in the Great Lakes. I can't think of a more glorious way to spend a day then to put on my red Wellies and my yellow rain slicker, toss my pack on my back, slip a camera in my pocket, and head off to parts unknown. Unless, of course, you add some family and friends to the mix! That's even better.

31 Days of Geocaching
My friend, Lauri, asked me about this challenge. She wanted to know if it was a personal challenge or why I'm doing it? Hmm... Good question. I kinda skipped over that.
Groundspeak, the big Kahunas in the geocaching world, put out a challenge to me and 6 million of my closest friends across the world for us to get off the couch and out the door for 31 days in a row. For each day that we find a geocache or attend a caching event, we get a virtual souvenir (seen above) added to our profiles.
Ok, it's virtual. Electronic. A pretty badge on my geocaching page. No big deal right? But it's so pretty and I want them and all my friends are doing it.... Wow, reverting back to my teen years. So, for most (if not all) of the next few weeks, I thought I'd share my journey with you.
Thanks! I'm with you on the off the couch. I've been getting up extra early and I'm out the door at 6am for an hour's walk. At least it is still cool--my only consolation for getting up that early. Right now at 2:41 it is 97. woof.
