Geocaching (http://www.geocaching.com), it's where you put some junk in Tupperware and hide it somewhere and then you post the coordinates on the Internet and get your GPS and go look for it.
coordinates = latitude and longitude GPS = Global Positioning System (it's like a big electronic thinger that, with the help of satellites, can tell you your exact position on the earth)
You can get them at, like, camping type stores and outdoor adventure stores. They also now have them in some pricey cars (they call them On-Star, and there's one in my grandfather's Cadillac). You can also get attachments for your Palm Pilot.
Did you get the one done that you were working on? When do you wanna stash it? Do you have a place in mind? I was thinking Chicago would be a good option. hee hee
I haven't made it yet... I'm still gathering some things. Chicago /would/ be a good place, you know. Absolutely. Of course, Princess Goolietta is dying, my car is making a rattling noise I need to get checked, and the other car is over miles. So, perhaps Columbus would be better. :)
But I'd rather go to Chicago. There's a websaver to Toronto - hee!
