Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none. Benjamin Franklin
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear. Mark Twain
I had never heard of geocaching before and looked it up. Very interesting. I checked their website and found over 100 caches within 50 miles of my house. Some only 3 or 4 miles away. I might have to break down and get a GPS now, I've been looking for a good excuse.

Just realize that you don't need all the bells and whistles when buying a gps. The pre-installed basemap will still show you where your destination is just like the $100 topographical software they expect you to buy. It just doesn't show all the roads, rivers and the like. One thing I would recommend is a rechargable lithium battery as a gps can eat regular batteries. Garmin and Magellan are two good makes. For info and deals on gps equipment search here(keep in mind this is a Canadian site, you'll probably find better deals in the US and no duty). And please, please, please do it kilted. It's the only way to go!
Great pictures! I'm glad you're liking the new kilt. Steve's kilts are perfect for hiking. Looks like the kids had a good time too; enjoy your time with them!
