Our first day geocaching.

April 22nd, 2007

I purchased a GPS last year for the MS150 Bike Tour. I never got around to using it and now I am feeling guilty with it sitting on the shelf.

Yesterday, I attended a hands on class at REI. This was a four hour class that taught me all the basics of my specific unit and how to operate it for finding locations, tracking, and generating routes.

I have known about Geocaching for a while. I even had a premium account with Geocaching.com. So this morning, Angie and I headed out to find some of the cache’s around our house.

We ended up finding four caches today. We got a lot of good exercise (walked about 4 miles) and used our powers of observation to try and find the hidden treasures.

Thanks Bert for this pointer. Check out Jott.Com

This site lets you call from your phone and record messages that can be sent as audio or text. It’s amazing how well it works with my voice. Only problem is that my mail client thinks it’s junk mail….

Found this cool tool called Text Expander. It’s a tool that lets you create aliases that will expand to text when you type them.
