Are you a nature fan? Do you love the great outdoors? Then you might
be a big fan of hunting. Hunting is one of the most enjoyable activities
you can do outdoors. Sadly, there are some restrictions when you want
to hunt. For example, you need to have a hunting license. This isn’t
really a problem. Just a bit of studying and practicing and you’ll be
good to go. Besides the license, you are also not allowed to hunt every
deer or everywhere you might want to, but there are still plenty of
deer. Another issue when you want to hunt is the fact that you only are
allowed to hunt during the season. This means most of the year you are
not allowed to hunt.
Perhaps you would be interested in geocaching for the rest of the
year. A handheld GPS will be all that is needed along with coordinates
of a geocache hidden in the area where you want to explore. You don’t
need any license, and aren’t restricted in time frame. Besides which, handheld GPS units
can also help you while hunting to be sure you don’t get turned around
in the woods and to help you find your way back to the best hunting
spots you found last week or even last year if you just save those
coordinates on your GPS unit. Whether you are searching for deer or hidden “treasures”, now
you can find yourself “hunting” any time you want!

It is vacation time, camping time, again. Well, we wanted to find
someplace new this year. We went looking for ideas of new campsites,
wanted water for play and trails to wander. This is a new place, an out
of the way sort of location I have never been before. Well, we packed
our bags, packed the car, all piled in and started our trip by plugging
in the exact address of the campground into our automotive GPS.
A pretty drive and a lunch stop later we ended up in the most
beautiful out of the way campground I have seen in ages. Wow, the view
from our campsite is spectacular - right on the lake with mountains in
the background. How much better can you get! Set up the tent,
admittedly always taking longer than planned, and cooked our dinner over
the outdoor fireplace. I moved the GPS unit over onto my GPS bike
mount and took off on some back roads for an evening ride to discover
some of our new area; that was fun. Ahhh, now it is time to rest by the
fire. There will be time enough for wandering the trails with our
trusty handheld GPS unit tomorrow.

Can money buy you happiness? Someone posed the age-old question. Well,
let’s consider. First, money purchased my hiking shoes, not a lot mind
you, but money all the same. And it took money to purchase my
inexpensive handheld GPS
unit for geocaching. I rode my bike down a really pretty country road
to where I wanted to look for that geocache which is only a couple miles
from my house. My bike originally cost me money, but I have had it for
quite a while and gotten quite a bit of use out of it, so cost per use
would be pretty low by now. Of course, I could have walked the entire
way – that would have been free. It did take some money for that GPS
bike mount for my handheld GPS device, but not bad compared to the hands
free convenience, as I feel the right GPS mounts can make all the
difference in using your handheld GPS systems. Hmm, also the sun on my
face and the breeze in my hair were free. The sound of the birds in the
trees and the rustle of the leaves was not only refreshing, but free.
Well, I am thinking money purchased some conveniences and my GPS
navigation device, but certainly the happiness of the day was certainly
FREE, as was my soaring spirit that day. Now get out there and enjoy
your life!
