Hey everyone.

I used to be stationed there in Okinawa with my 60 gallon tank, I'm not sure if you remember me or not crash (Jon) but I left there in November.

Since I got out of the military and am back in the States I just found out about a "hobby" called geocaching. You go on the website www.geocaching.com and register for an account. You then put in Okinawa and it will give you coordinates to enter in your GPS and you go find the point and there will be a container there. Usually in the container, which will be hidden, there will be a log to sign in on and some kinds of goodies. If you take something you have to leave something as well and log your visits on the site.

I wish I would have known about it when I was still in Oki, I am having a blast with it here.

If you guys have any questions or want more information email me at wesleycharlessmith@yahoo.com And too, if you need anything from the States let me know and I will send it to you.

Wes.
