Geocaching?
We recently learned about something called Geocaching. It's super awesome! First you go to Geocaching.com and create a free account then on the left hand side click Hide & Seek Cache and enter your address and it pulls up tons of hidden treasures that can be located with a GPS all around your location. With in the cache is a log book that you can sign as well as some trinkets that if you take something you just have to replace it with something of at least equal value. In our very first geocache adventure we found this old C-123 provider that crashed in 1968 when taking off from a local air field, Shawn loved it! We also brought our friends Roger and Erika with us too. Even little William is with us bundled real close to Mom in a Moby wrap.
So we didn't find the Geo but we did find this Old TA-4J.
It's seen better days!

This is the Exact TA-4J in 1983 when she was still flying before it had a few mishaps that deemed the aircraft unfit for flight, it was used as a trainer for Navy pilots. Here's some pics, (carrier mishap pic 1, carrier mishap pic 2, carrier mishap pic 3) of the possible accident that was the final straw that resulted in the final resting place out on the range for 156935.
