So I’ve recently come across this new phenomenon known as geocaching, which involves travelling to different sites around the world and recording in different logbooks that you’ve been there. These caches are usually hidden and I haven’t done much yet, but they seem pretty hard to find. I have to say though, that I had an interesting thought recently. A friend of mine mentioned to me the difference between the way adults walk and the way children walk. When an adult walks, he can either be lazy or purposeful. Children always seem to be purposeful though. Geocaching has been interesting in that when I started on my first search, I noticed that I was walking with a purpose that I haven’t had in a while, which is this epic adventure to find something, and to record your legacy. That’s literally what geocaching is; a record of the earth.
I’ve decided that I want to start doing this, and wherever I go, I want to find geocaches and leave my legacy behind, just because it is something that sounds absolutely epic on paper. Achievement whores will probably enjoy doing it too, because it is actually kind of like a real life RPG quest. This blog basically has transformed, for me, into a record of geocaching. I don’t know how it will work yet, but I will see.
Catch ya on the flipside.
