Tuesday 5th January - targets for the year

One of my targets for 20-10 is to find as many geocaches in Hawke's Bay as I can. There's at least 90 hidden in the district.

I first became interested in geocaching after listening to a 'thought for the day' on Radio Ulster where the speaker was talking about searching for the 'Spanish Chestnut' geocache in a churchyard on the Antrim Coast.

I finally started geocaching when I bought a GPS a couple of years ago. I have found a few in the Wellington area but so far not really attacked the home district.

I found my last for 2009 at Shine Falls last week and my first for 2010 on Napier Hill on Saturday 2nd Jan. I am intending finding the ones in the mountain ranges before the end of April when it will be getting colder... If I fail in that, I will have to wait until October...

Anyone interested in geocaching go look at www.geocaching.com

There's at least 6 hidden on Rathlin Island...
