On Wednesday after the we went to the Farmers Market we decided to go geocaching.

For those who are wondering, geocaching is a kind of treasure hunting game. A geocacher hides a cache pretty much anywhere in the world and then shares it’s existence and location online using GPS coordinates. After that anyone with a GPS unit can try to find the geocache.

Most of the caches in the city of Spokane are microcaches (no bigger then a film canister) but the one we looked for on Wednesday was larger. It is shown above. I cannot say exactly where we found it, as not to wreck it for other geocachers, but it was a nice little challenge.

And besides that, the area was beautiful. The Upriver cache is right beside the Spokane River. Damian and Michael had fun wandering by the water’s edge too.
