Satiating Adventure!

Day 5:

Today I said "Yes!" to adventure by embarking on a journey upstate to go apple picking.

My friend Sarah and I went apple picking on Saturday... it was a delicious adventure!


After apple picking we decided to go geocaching. That's when you take your GPS out into the middle of nowhere (or the end of somewhere...depending on what kind of challenge you want) and track down a designated longitude and latitude where a "treasure" of sorts can be found. Here's Sarah with her GPS.


I made a mix CD to put in the "treasure" chest (a.k.a. a Tupperware full of trinkets for trading), which we sadly never found. Turns out that there are difficulty levels given for specific geocahing locations and that the one we were looking for was something like a four out of five.


Oh well... even if we didn't find what we were looking for, we had a lot of fun and now we have a good story to tell if geocaching ever comes up in conversation (take that as a hint to bring it up if you're ever talking to me...)
