Geocaching Wilco Park
Our Central Texas weather has been all over the place lately. We had a snow & ice day last Friday. On Sunday, my husband, son, and I went geocaching in light jackets that we ended up taking off. Then, three days later we had another snow & ice day. I thought I would share some pictures from our latest geocaching adventure on Sunday.
We searched for three geocaches and found two of them. We probably walked about 3.5 miles during our outing. My husband and I really think it is a lot of fun. Boogs likes it enough to want to go, but his patience runs out if he can't find what he is looking for quickly enough. I think it is a great way to get outdoors, enjoy the sunshine, and spend time as a family.

I've nver tried geocahing but I really want to. It looks like great fun
ReplyDeleteIt is fun!
DeleteGeocaching is such a great family activity - hoping to do our first cache of 2014 this weekend although forecast here in Scotland is rain and more rain just now!
ReplyDeleteWe did one last Christmas near my in-laws house in Ottawa, Canada. My husband had to take a shovel and dig thru the snow the reach the geocache.
DeleteWe've not done this yet and I keep hearing about it, a must for my to-do list. Thanks, Mich x
ReplyDeleteIt can be both fun and frustrating. I tell Boogs to go into each hunt expecting to at least have a nice walk even if we don't find anything.
DeleteGeocaching can be great fun and well done for finding two! It's such a good way for the whole family to get exercise and spend some quality time together outdoors. Thanks for linking up and sharing your fun with Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Fiona. It is fun. We are lucky to have so many places nearby with hidden geocaches.
DeleteWell done on finding two! I don't think we've ever found any haha x
ReplyDeleteLast time we went out, we struck out twice. We were very happy to find these two.
DeleteGeocaching is on my to do list for this year it looks amazing x
ReplyDeleteYou do have to hype it up a bit as an adventure walk/hike, not just a treasure hunt.
DeleteGeocaching is such a great way to get children interested in the outdoors but I agree it can be tricky to find some of them! #countrykids x
ReplyDeleteIt is fun for the entire family.
DeleteI love the idea of gep caching - it's something we need to try this year I think #CountryKids
ReplyDeleteThere are so many out there. Last year, we took a trackable tag from Texas to Ottawa, Canada. It is neat to go online and see where that trackable tag has traveled.
DeleteGeo-caching is on my to do list for 2014 - thanks for reminding me!
ReplyDeleteYou will have to post pics of your geocaching adventure.
DeleteWoohoo! I hadn't heard about this until your post. Brilliant. And looks like there might be some for us to look for near us. #countrykids
ReplyDeleteWe have been geocaching for about two years and still enjoy it.
DeleteI bet JDaniel would love geocaching. We went hiking over the week and he had a blast.
ReplyDeleteGlad JDaniel stayed dry on your hike.
DeleteWow that looks like great fun. I really fancy trying geocaching!
ReplyDeleteIt is a lot of fun. You should give it a try.
