Cheap day trips are a super-duper fun way to celebrate a birthday. For example: Have you ever heard of Geocashing? If not, it's fun to how to geocache.
I hadn't heard about it until a year ago. It's an outdoors
treasure hunting game. You use your GPS to find small hidden containers.
There's lots of information on the web about this great and very
inexpensive activity.
My nephew lives near Lake Tahoe. He and
his wife go Geocashing all the time. They are getting quite a name for
themselves for discovering hard to find treasures! Tops my list for
homemade gift ideas for boys!

area, and our State Capitol in Sacramento, CA.
