Family Geocaching Adventure

Lovely new alliteration for our learning life: Map it Monday. Aka geocaching! Hopefully without complaints because they know what’s on the schedule. . . Isn’t it awesome to learn new stuff about your regular places? Our first Earthcache in our geocaching adventure had us looking for the start of the underground spring, deciding if it was an artesian well, and estimating the flow in gallons per minute. Then we sent our answers in for “approval” — such a lovely tie in to all our estimation talks we’ve done lately. Need more earthcaching! . . And my world traveller said, “Show your Shaka!” a la Hawaii mere months ago. Sometimes I just sit back in amazement at how much they soak into daily life. Learning is life. . . PS: I really need someone to wake up my mom brain as to why I never asked why this park has the word spring in its name. Duh!
