I took my boys geocaching for the first time tonight.  They had a lot of fun.  We found 2 with 45 min of leaving the house.  They wanted to keep looking for more, but it was getting dark, and it was raining.  We will be going again soon.  Here are the pics with 2 found geocaches.

ive heard of it but i have never done it.  They probably had fun because they probably thought that they were treasure hunting.

That is what I told them, that it was a treasure hunt.

My daughter and I have found several hundred over the past 2 years.  There are thousands within 30 miles of us so we take and hour or two and go explore a park or an area that we have never been to. The difficult ones that take a lot of thought are the most fun.  There is one that we have looked for 5 different times.  It is a nano and we are close to finding it.   We have placed 6 caches of our own.  It's just as much fun reading the logs of people that found yours.

We use geocaching.com, what site do you use?

I have no idea what that is, but i guess it's cool if yall had fun. What's in the box?  What prevents someone from accidentally finding the box and keeping it?

I use geocaching.com also. There are a lot real close to here too.  The boys are waiting to go again.

Bassn Blvd, somebody might accidently find one, the risk of putting them out.  Most are hid well enough to not accidently be found.  Inside the box are different objects, and you can trade items and sign a log book when you find it.
