...Marshmallows??We were out geocaching in the area today and came upon this peculiar site north of Victoria. (It's really just new-mown hay, covered against the unseasonally cool wet weather...)

Man, I need to get out and do some geocaching.
My eTrex Yellow is sitting right here on my coffee table, giving me sad looks. And my sig items are right there next to it. Each in it's own zippy bag, ready to go!

OK, I'll ask. What the heck is geocaching?

We see these white plastic covered hay bales all over where we live. It's the new way. Sometimes they line them up like breath mints in a package, with one long white cover in a long undulating scary white "Dune worm" along the edge of a field. It looks way nicer when the bales are just "naked", but they are trying to keep the rain off them until they get used.

Geocaching is what I like to think of as modern day treasure hunting
It is LOADS of FUN!!!
All you need is a gps ( and access to a computer)
1) go to geocaching website and do a search of caches in your area ( or place you are visiting)
you'll get coordinates for your gps and depending on the difficulty more or less instructions
3) start huntin'
4) find the cache - it is usually waterproof container that has been cleverly hidden- inside you will find a few goodies- huge range of stuff really and a signature book- you sign the book and take something if you brought something to leave-
5) Leave the cache where you found it ( cleverly hidden)
6) Feel like Indiana Jones on your way home
Besides just being fun- it is a great way to learn how to use your GPS
The cure for anything is salt water;
sweat, tears or the sea
