While out caching we found a small caliber hand gun in a small bag. Called the police to have it removed.

Beyond the time spent with family and friends while geocaching, I found a Geocaching keyring and a hat pin with the geocaching logo on it as an FTF. Really though for me it's far more about the hunting for a cache and feeling that little rush when you find a particularly challenging hide.

My wife, son, and I went out geocaching in the in the Milwaukee area this past weekend. Lovely day really, sun was shining wasn't too cold and all around great day to go geocaching. As we pulled up to a small park where the cache was hidden and began walking into the woods my wife noticed a small bag on the ground. She bent down to pick it up thinking that it was probably just garbage. When she did pick it up she noticed that it seemed like something was inside. When she opened it up she got quite a shock, inside the bag was a small hand gun!! She carefully placed the bag back on the ground and we called the police. Half an hour later the police arrived and removed the gun, but what a find!! The officer said it was a cheap .22 caliber gun, not loaded but bullets where in the bag so if a kid or someone intent on doing harm found it who knows. We're glad we were able to get one gun off the streets of Milwaukee anyway.
