So, I've heard of this Geocaching thing. And for the first time in my life I feel like an old man who has to ask the kids what that new fangled thing is, long after it has become old fangled.
It seems like something I should know how to do. What is it, how does it work, and every so often I find these little containers while out exploring with a log book and little knick knacks tucked way back in the most random placed.
Elucidate para mi por favor.
Someone tell me what Geocaching is and how to do it

People hide objects or caches and provide clues (or straight-up coordinates) for how to find them. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=geocaching

But I've also heard of Geocaching being used simply as informal databases of Points of Interest?
Is that the same thing or no?

I have always done it where you have to find a small box or whatnot and you can take something out of it as long as you put something back. They usually have gum ball machine sort of things inside. Sometimes a note pad to make notes.

I've found several, although I don't look for them. They have been in some pretty neat places I was going to go, anyway. Seems like fun. Found one in a small cave in Hercules Glade. So maybe they are a way to find cool places.
