Trying out a new hobby

We've done a bit of geocaching since the weather got nice here in downeast Maine. I hope that it turns in to something the kids enjoy. So far, it hasn't been real exciting for them. The first couple of caches we went hunting for were either waterlogged or rusted shut, not much fun for the little ones! Since then, we have found some in better shape, and hopefully we can tie it into some of our camping trips this summer. Ben really likes the exploring part of the challenge but when the caches are in bad shape, the effort feels like it was all for naught. We'll see if we can keep up the interest. I guess my duty is to select good caches!
