hi mr.M my group did take actual pictures. We also took a video but it wouldnt upload to my blog and i remembered that i could use my flash drive after the class was over.
this is what our gps devices look like
this is a pic of the second geocache we found
green machine
i got the idea for the name of this blog from my science teacher. he has us turn in our asignments to a folder called the green machine. i figured even though the thing is very green already i might as well make it even more so.

Geocache
Geocaching is really cool and fun. there are tons of geocaches world wide and everyone can play all you need is a GPS device. You can find coordinates of all the geocaches at http://www.geocaching.com/ using that website and this one http://www.trimble.com/gps/whygps.shtml you can learn all you need to know about gps and geocaching. when in doubt, google it.
Before this unit I didn't have a clue of how to use a gps system at all even how to turn it on. I am now the group expert, I am completely gps literate.
The first time we went out on a geocache hunt someone had taken the cache so it wasn't there. When we went out for the tournament though we found two caches and were a bush away from the third. We did rather good but both groups in fourth period got all three. ohwell our group rocked!
