StarvinGarmin

I was first introduced to a GPS unit in the winter of 2005, just prior to my deployment to Iraq. My brother-in-law and sister figured it would be a good thing to have. A friend of theirs, who had also seen service in Iraq, recommended a Garmin GPSmap 76. While deployed in Iraq, the GPS was used for seeking out suspected insurgents, mortar launch points, calling in indirect fire missions for target registration and a host of other missions. Sadly though, the GPS can only withstand so much abuse. The original one I had met its demise on Oct 9 2005 from an I.E.D. Upon my return to the states this past May, it was returned to my sister and her husband for a keep sake. And a grateful thanks. After getting home, and getting into the swing of things, I longed for the oppotunuity to seek out the unknown with my GPS. It just so happened that while I was Kayaking, a guide and I crossed paths. Noticing my Garmin, he asked if I was going GeoCaching. "Going What?" I responded. A few days later, I typed in GPS games and up popped Geocaching web site. I entered in the grids for A walk through Stamp creek (Sorry...the exact name escapes me) and presto. I LOVE IT STARVINGARMIN
