Adventures in Geocaching

So we mapped a route of caches from our house to my Dad’s. Some were easy to find. Others? Not so much. There was one called “Movie Night” that was hidden around those Red Box movie rental machines. We had to wait forever as muggle after muggle rented movies. We tried standing around like we were waiting our turn to rent something, but it kind of felt like it does when someone stands too close to you at the ATM.
Um, can I help you with something?
We never found the cache. We did rent The Crazies on BluRay for $1.59.
After hanging out at my Dad’s house for awhile we headed home, stopping at a few more caches on the way. Here’s some video from one off a trail in a park.
Tomorrow, I’m going back to that Red Box machine and getting my $1.59 back.

Have mercy! This sounds like so much fun with alot of unexpected shit you don't usually like to deal with. This will definitely be a spring/winter event to try for me. Louisiana does not have very cold winters.

Like1) Nina, you sound so white.
2) Men always look hot pushing a baby stroller.
3) Ants on my back are why I don't leave my house.
4) I love how you make a short walk into a well lit thin wood seem so dangerous.

Like"That's bullshit! Just sign the book." Really? What did you think would be in there?
Something about this Geocaching thing makes me think of the end of the movie Seven. Just let me know when you find Gwynnies head.

LikeI had to listen to part 2 again so that I could quote you properly:
"Ok,I'm gettin the fuck outta here, every man for himself see you on the other side."
The best part about that video is how you left Donny in the woods like you were being chased by Zombies.

LikeI am really enjoying these geocaching blogs. Please keep them coming. This is as close as I'll ever get to trying it. I don't even like to walk on my lawn, so I damn sure ain't going into the woods.

LikeUmmm, yeah. Sounded like fun until I remembered heat, sweat and bugs. I have never even been to the back of my property due to possibility of snakes, ticks and whatever else may be lurking back there.

LikeOK Here are the problems with this.
1) Now when Donny goes all WBC it is mildly plausible that you were in the damn woods!..Seriously?!!!!!
2) I love how you yell at the kiddos "We found it", when you totally made Donny go in the brush. THAT man really might be a Saint.
3) Poison Ivy- leaves of 3 let it be. Stay away from all brush that has 3 leaves.
4) I am NOT taking my fat ass ANYWHERE where I am going to get sweaty and have bugs fall on me!
5) You can totally get your money back if you call the 800 number and tell them something was wrong with the movie. They don't have to know that what was wrong with it was that it sucked.
I am going treasure hunting next week while the kids are gone. We have over 200 within 10 miles of the house. Palm also has a nifty little app for it also. :)
