- "So, what did you do Saturday evening? TV and pop corn??"
- "Ehm... no... I started looking at historically interesting places and listed monuments in Kolbäck/Säby"
Welcome to geek town 
Sure, I actually had a few hand fulls of pop corn, but no TV. I got stuck by the computer searching for burial grounds, stone walls, old roads etc etc
The swedish "Riksantikvarieämbetet" has a lot of interesting information (http://www.fmis.raa.se/cocoon/fornsok/search.html). Just look at what you can find close to our home:
You know, I've always wondered why the farmers don't use all of their land for plowing/sowing/"regular-farming-activities". There are tiny specks of stone and woodland here and there, and I just realized: those tiny specks often contain valuable historical remnants. There's the explanation I have been looking for (yeah, yeah... perhaps not the entire explanation, but some of it)
All the things you learn from geocaching 
- this is what today's lesson gave: "stone and woodland speck enlightenment" (SAWSE)
Now back to history - perhaps I can learn a little bit more
