  One of my favorite hobbies is geocaching. It's a game where you hide a little box of goodies and post coordinates on the internet. People go look for the cache and then log their finds. A few months ago I hid one outside of a Kingdom Hall. It's title is "Go Ahead, Knock on their Door".

  You might find amusing some of the comments left by the users who've found the cache. I'll put a couple here and then the link to the webpage if you want to see it.

  Thanks for this one.I would love to knock on their door.Again & Again & Again.But no one home this Saturday morning.

  Well Laugh Out Loud what a good name for this cache!!!!

  LMAO!!!

  Here are some of the log entries....

  January 12 by skibowlers (skibowlers) (28 found) This was our first Medford cache. We were up from Crescent City to watch the PBA event at Lava Lanes. The parking lot was full as it was Sunday but we didn't knock. Love your sense of humor! Dogmom & Skibowlers

  December 18, 2002 by boxerlovers (151 found) Sure is a big parking lot for such a small building. No one was home on Wednesday either. Signed the log. Boxerlovers and the boxer too!

  December 7, 2002 by Appledumplingang (14 found) Great location. No one home on this afternoon. Maybe we will come back on Sunday and knock. Appledumplingang

  November 3, 2002 by Bufford (Bufford) (335 found) Hello fellow cachers! It was Sunday afternoon and they were home so I was tempted to knock but thought better of it. Signed the log and snuck off to continue in my evil ways. Thanks for the fun. Bufford

  It is a fun game. I'm thinking about making it a series. Stick one around all the Kingdom halls in the area. My son used to go to this particular hall and when he saw a guy walking around outside one day holding a GPS he knew I had something to do with it.

  Cute! It reminds me a little of a "scavenger hunt" which we played as kids.

  I noticed the instructions on Hiding a Cache:

  Hide a cache

  To hide a new geocache in your area...

  Please make sure to obtain permission from the landowner or land manager prior to placing your geocache.

  So did you get permission from the elders before placing the cache at the KH? LOL!
