Unh, not a good time. No one’s fault but my own, but I’m not going to let that stop me from complaining. I decide to Geocaching this afternoon. I’m not sure what I was thinking, but thin shorts and a tee shirt are not the proper equipment to go rooting around parks and people’s backyards in. To further add to my frustration, I discovered that I can’t add new way points to my little GPS unit without the cable and a computer, or by standing on the spot and marking it. I’ve been playing with the iPhone geocaching app as my data source and using a little Garmin as my GPS, as the Garmin is a WAY better GPS than the iPhone, too bad I’ll have to lug a laptop around to program the thing if I deviate from my planned hunts. So, here’s the checklist for next time:

• Research the caches your going to check out before leaving the house
• Program those caches into your GPS and know it’s functions before leaving the house
• Dress appropriately and bring the correct equipment

Maybe I should just never leave the house, I’ve got enough electrotics projects laying around and more than a few videos that need editing.
