 I was planning to write about something else today but it will have to wait because…wow, what a morning. I was up early getting ready for my morning geocaching walk when I decided to check my e-mail and sitting in my inbox were 3 new geocaches. The best news was that two of these caches … Continue reading A Spectacular Monday Morning  I got into geocaching because I like to explore & discover. When I was first introduced to travel bugs (or other trackables like geocoins) I thought that it was a cute sideshow act to geocaching but nothing I would take too seriously. I have gotten much more interested in travel bugs and now I actively try … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 84  246 Geocaches Found – 533km on foot – 24lbs lost! So far on the Geocache Diet I have written more about Geocaching and hiking and less about what I am eating. The Geocache diet is an exercise challenge after all but in order to lose all the weight I am hoping to I have had to … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 81  Easter weekend and the weather is horrible. We were hoping to at least do some family activities; like go for a family picnic, find some geocaches, have an Easter egg hunt in the back yard, or visit a farm. The stormy weather outside changed these plans in a hurry. A little rain would not stop us but a full … Continue reading Indoor Multi-Cache for Kids  Have you ever been in a beautiful forest, an untamed beach, or anywhere that seems miles away from it all only to pass someone yakking on a cell phone? What about the early morning nature walk where the birds are in full song and the person you pass is listening to their iPod? I always … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 76  For the first time since starting the Geocache Diet I experienced the thrill of finding a cache before anyone else. Finding a cache before anyone is a competitive business and my daily schedule, the desire to go everywhere on foot, plus my natural lack of speed, does not make me very suited for the first-to-find … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 73  The streak is over. After finding at least one geocache in each of the last 67 days yesterday I failed to find a single geocache. I guess I should feel a bit disappointed that I was not able to carry the streak further but I am actually relieved. Finding a geocache a day was never … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 70  I have always considered myself a finder and not a hider. It was going out to interesting places and seeking for caches that got me hooked on Geocaching. While I acknowledged that hiding caches is an integral part of being a geocacher I was never very interested in hiding caches. As a Geocaching team we … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 67  I had some free time this morning so I decided to do some math. I had a feeling that I may have walked further this week than in past weeks and I was correct. I beat my record by over 6km. Not coincidently I also found fewer caches this week than any other week (kept … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 64  197 Geocaches Found – 404km on foot – 21lbs lost! Two months into the Geocache Diet and I thought I would provide some more random thoughts from the Geocaching weight loss trail. I am torn about my feelings about walking in the forest while it is raining. On one hand you get all muddy and … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 60  I am eight weeks into the Geocache cache diet and things are going pretty good. As a reward to myself I thought I would look at some statistics (math makes me happy). I have lost 21lbs and although I know I could be closer to my goal at this point I am OK with this … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 57  A trip down Vancouver Island to visit our parents resulted with Lisa and I having a few days to ourselves and we took advantage of it: Boy did we ever!! We left early each day and returned late while we walked, shopped, ate, and geocached. In first two days alone we walked over 20km and … Continue reading Geocache Diet – Day 54  |
