Ready or Not, Here We Come!

All of a sudden this afternoon it was decided we should give this Geocaching thing a try.  After a bit of reading on Geocaching.com, we decided to go for it.

Sign up for website, check.
Get a GPS.. uhm.. Hey I have GPS on my phone, will that work?
Download Geocaching app - Check!
Get camera and pen - Check!

We are the Nomesquad and we're out to find all of the hidden treasures of the world.  Located in Lubbock, Texas, I wasnt sure how big of a deal this would be here, you know sometimes we get the current fads and fabs, and sometimes we don't.  :P  We started simply today - even though its nearly 100 degrees outside, that won't stop us!  And we even have our own Team Mom to hang out too!

We've decided to snap a photo at each cache site, even if they're only here in town.  The pictures arent necessarily of the hiding place, just the place in town where we were taken for the hunt.  Gotta start somewhere, right?  We won't post any major spoilers or clues, just a quick statement about each place.  Heck we wont even post the shape or size of the containers, no cheating!

Piled into the car, we grabbed the phone, clicked on the GPS and fetched Mom.  Off we go!  First stop:

GC202R0 - Energy Cubed - This one was pretty cool



GC163TF - TEA for 17 - Nice hide here.  Glad we went on a weekend.


GC2Y0H7 - Birds Eye View - I really thought we were going to have to come back to this one later, but we found it.  Excellent hiding place, was beautiful as well.  Only a little creepy.




By this time we were hot and parched, and it was about supper time.  Ok, I'll admit it, we're totally hooked and as soon as the GPS has more juice again we'll be on our way out once more.  Expect more pics soon!
