I now a lot of CAP members enjoy "searching" for things. Does anyone on here go geocaching? It is really fun. I just started this week.

You make an account on http://www.geocaching.com/. Next, you find caches around where you live. If you have a GPS, use the coordinates to search a specific area, and if you do not have one, go to a place which you are familiar with and search for it. It is pretty cool.
