Family: Team Chanceman Finds 100th Cache!

Number 100 logged cache was a virtual WebCache at R.I.T., where Jo and I met a *few* years ago...

[From Wikipedia] Geocaching is an outdoor sport that involves the use of a Global Positioning System ("GPS") receiver to find a "geocache" (or "cache") placed anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small, waterproof container containing a logbook and "treasure". Geocaching is a unique take on a traditional Easter-egg hunt in that it uses two recent technologies, the GPS and the Internet. []

It's a great family activity that gets everyone outdoors and to places they've never been to..... for more info, get to the Geocaching Site.

Travelling to Toronto and points North from Rochester? Trust me-- save the aggravation and take the CATS ferry. Comfortable, reasonable pricing, and beats a three-hour drive with two young children ANY day....
