I've never tried "Geocaching," but it seems like it would be fun to do if I were bored. Maybe it would be an alternative to the BBS.
Geocaching is pretty neat. Now that more people have things like the iPhone with GPS and Geocaching apps it makes it easier and more people can do it. Without an iPhone you'd need a GPS, or try and figure out where it is on Google Maps and then try looking around.
Geocaching would be a lot of fun with a group of people, especially night caches. You sneak around in the woods with flashlights, etc. Some caches can only be found at night with a flashlight as you have to find and follow a trail of small reflectors hiding along a path that leads you to the cache.
Now that my kids are getting older I hope to get out more with them and do more geocaching. :)
