I found my first geocache!
I borrowed my dad's Garmin eTrex GPS receiver, and it worked pretty well. I think I hafta buy one of these babies or the next model or so up. medstore-online.com
I got to the site in the early afternoon. I stupidly did not eat lunch beforehand, nor did I bring a water bottle with. I was baking in the sun within minutes. Once I started feeling dizzy and dehydrated, I headed back, without even finding the cache.
When the sun was going down, I returned to the site and found the cache right away! The disposable camera inside the cache was all used up, so I shot a photo of myself there. I left an IKEA yo-yo that I got on their opening day, and took a fray.com sticker (part of the original cache contents).
This is fun. I think I'm gonna do some more... granted that I'm more prepared next time.
Stupid newbie.
I'm going for coffee. Want some?

What the heck does the "Extra" mean anyways?

Sorry.
That is the effect Mr. Pibb always had on me.
I didn't even know it was still being sold.
I thought it had been banned in one of those riders to the Geneva Convention as illegal chemical warfare.
Don't tell me if I'm right. ;)
