lilallybean,
Good luck and good caching! After the first time out, you probably won't have to force your family to go anymore.
By any chance, are you the JonesCrew? I checked for today's first time cachers at 63637 and noticed the JonesCrew had a few finds. If that is your family, way to go!
We had 3 finds today ourselves.

Yep, that sure is us! Of the 5 of us, only the youngest two kids went out with DH and I. Oldest was in the hospital Friday night with a concussion and stayed home sleeping under Grandma's watchful eye. We had sooooo much fun! I still need to work on using the GPS Unit, but I think we did pretty good. Our very first hunt/find was on the grounds of my work so that was really neat. I can't wait to go out again! You are right---the kids are ready to go out NOW! I am so glad that Santa listened to me and brought the GPS for our our family! aw: aw: aw:

Congratulations, lilallybean and family! Now you're hooked!
What model GPSr do you have?

 

[lilallybean]

It is a Garmin GPS72. DH aka Santa says it was about $180 at Wal-Mart. And we are hooked LOL.

Great! We just got a Magellan eXplorist 210 to replace an old 310. We've been caching for about 2 1/2 years. Good caching!

Okay I just looked up your zip - we've gotta do the dark side of the moon one. We love old cemetaries. Oka, so I was off a few miles when I was trying to figure out your location in your pm. I really like St Joe state park. I bet there are a few there just waiting to be found. Glad you had such a good day.

St. Joe Park is literally within walking distance of our yard. Maybe we will bump into ya there!
