Doing some dead reckoning, or something like that.
Just for Grandad - Christopher found a walking stick!
Really big - that's about all I have to say about this one.
Completely unrelated to treasure hunting. To take advantage of all that naughty energy, I put Patrick to work unloading the dishwasher. He did a pretty good job!
Hopefully tomorrow will bring pictures of a bright blue picnic table. Until then, enjoy!
Very cool! A GPS sure would have made land navigation easier! (a lot of dead reckoning)
ReplyDeleteWe do have the GPS - it only gets you so close. Taking a bearing, esp. from different directions helps narrow in on the most likely feature the cache is hidden in. Some GPS receivers have a built in magnetic compass, otherwise, you have to be moving at a pretty good clip to get a heading (fast walk). I like being slightly old school. Besides, the compass doesn't use batteries...
ReplyDeleteWe love geocaching...Kaylynn calls it treasure hunting too.
