Wow, 20 years of geocaching!! I only wish I had gotten into more than 4 years ago (2016)!
I remember being ar a MENSA convention, though, years ago (mayve even a decade ago!), and one of the activites was this "geocaching". I tried it out (because it sounded awesome!), but it was long before everybody had a smart phone and could cache from that--we all shared one Garmin or something and were wandering around the convention grounds! And it was hot. And none of us could find it. ]8
So, despite that inauspicious introduction, a decade later I was reintroduced to the concept of caching by accidentally coming across a page torn out of a magazine while cleaning out my bedroom. --I've laways been kind of a packrat with ephemera, but the magazine page had to be at least ten years old too! It was an ad for an SUV of some kind that had GPS in it--and so you could use it for this thing called "geocaching". It sounded just as cool in that ad as it did at MENSA, so I gave it another whirl--and the rest is history! (8
Happy 20th Anniversary Geocaching!!!!! 8D
