The kids have been begging me to take them geocaching. I’ve heard a lot about it, I’ve read up on it and it does seem quite interesting and extremely fun.
People and organizations all over the world have put these caches in different places for others to find and will give you the coordinates to that cache. You would use your gps to find them. Seem easy? Well, it’s one thing to find it, it’s another to actually get to it. That’s part of the fun.
The only problem with us doing this is that I don’t have a gps.
I found where Buy.com has a great Garmin StreetPilot c550 GPS Navigation System w/ Bluetooth. This is such a great price I’m considering buying two, one for me and one for my husband. This would be really nice for our annual road trips, also. We like to go on a road trip at least once each year…usually we aren’t sure where we’re going until just a few weeks before we go. Many times, while we’re on the trip we’ll decide to go to another destination. Just last year we went to Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas. While there, we decided to check out Iowa and Nebraska as well. I can think of a few times it would have been nice to have one of these with us!

Does that thing let you enter GPS coordinates? Or alternatively does it show you your current GPS coordinates? I have an older street pilot and it does neither of them
