Grown-up Easter egg hunt

Jason and I have a new hobby. We are geocachers. We use a handheld global positioning system, or GPS, to find locations that other geocachers have left boxes of trinkets to trade. It's kind of like a world-wide Easter egg hunt or maybe you could compare it to finding pirate booty hidden from prying eyes, or "mugglers" in geocache lingo.


For our first hunt, Jason and I went to Monkey Mountain Park and Preserve in Jackson County. We found the first one pretty easily. We had to walk farther for the second, but it was a quick find as well. Unfortunately, someone had left the lid off of it, and it was full of water. We tried to find a couple more, but we were getting tired...and Jason's a quitter...
