One of my goals for the summer was to work on “cartoon guide” to Geocaching… (“Gee-Oh-Cash-Ing”) and with GeoWoodstock… (“Gee-Oh-Wood-St-Ock”) just around the corner (and not having any good ideas for storylines) I thought this would be a perfect time to get it done.

My favorite definition of geocaching is using multi-million dollar satellites to find Tupperware in the woods. So while this might be a good place to start as a newbie, I really don’t have the space to cover all the details. I would head over to geocaching.com and watch the short introductory video, and set up a free account. The basics so far would be- 1. find the cache (“cash”), 2. open the cache, 3. sign the logbook to prove you were there, 4. trade anything you want (optional- Cecil would prefer you don’t) 5. put it all back where you found it. Pretty simple… in concept.

Oh, and GeoWoodstock is a massive geocaching event held annually in a different part of the country. This year it is in Pennsylvania, I’ll try to blog a bit once we get out there.
