Geocaching with Daddy

Mommy had to work out of town all day today, so the girls spent the day with Great Grandma Pat, and on their way home with Daddy, they got to go geocaching!  He picked such a fun one that they even had to do some "rock climbing."

Why Geography? Geocaching

I have started this blog to record our adventures learning geography.  We started geocaching last March, and love it!  We've been caching in Washington, Idaho, Montana, Alberta, and British Columbia, even attending GeoWoodstock!  I think that geocaching is a very valuable, fun activity to do with the kids.  They love going caching.  We have met the nicest people.  We have planned trips for the sole purpose of collecting caches, we have planned vacations to include earthcaches, and have even placed a few caches of our own.
We hope that through continued caching, the girls will learn mapping skills, how to use gps software, and to learn to appreciate nature and their surroundings, as well as their fellow cachers.
