Beavertail Lighthouse, Jamestown, RI

Down to Jamestown, RI this past weekend.  We were out hiking at the state parks and doing some geo-caches.  If you haven’t heard about geo-caching it’s basically hiking with a GPS (global positioning system) and using the coordinates to find designated spots.  They can just be a certain place and often they have a hidden container where you can sign your name and take a small prize.  You need to replace the prize with something too.

Anyway we found four geocaches in Jamestown, one at the Beavertail lighthouse.  It’s been a great incentive to get the kids outside hiking.  Plus we’ve found some really beautiful remote spots that we would have never known about.  Check out the official geocaching website if you’re interested.
