I think it's in Tualatin this weekend. You will get all the answers you need there, if you want to attend. Quote Link to comment

hoosier guy Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Hi Pat, Being from Indiana I probably can't do you much good for your article. But let me encourage you to have some fun caching with your kids. When I am not busy poking around under dead trees or avoiding muggles I teach a class on fathering out at church. One of the things I stress to the guys is this; If we spend our time with them now, they will spend their time with us later. Cheers Quote Link to comment
+Tcaches Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I haven't done any geo-tourism yet but I can tell you that geocaching has shown me unusual and interesting, non-obvious places in my own hometown that I was unaware of. When I travel, I like to see that kind of place, not the Holiday Inn and the tourist traps. Caches (carefully chosen in advance) will help me find those places away from home, too.
