Welcome to TechBlazer.com. My name is Tim Elam and this is my the personal blog. It’s a blog about technology, geocaching, and any other topic that happens to pop into my head. I am a self proclaimed Technophile, Gearhead, and an Ubergeek, among other things. I am originally from Kentucky and currently living in northwest Alabama with my wife and two sons.

Geocaching

I started Geocaching as a way to get outdoors and spend more time with my two sons. Whenever Mom joins us it’s an added bonus.
