7th find of the day, and 3189th total find at 1:52:00 PM.
A nice quick find, after the horsey muggles passed by. (I bet they thought we stopped so we wouldn't spook the horses.)
Took: Nothing
Left: Screwdriver
Thanks sevillegroup for the cache

Found thishide with FitzelFleas, TopThat and Arn on a "lets visit lots of StaceV caching run tour of Wandin", Thanks Team Seville Group for the hide.. we made a quick find here.. Find #1838
#842 Oops! - had to edit this as I just realised I'd misread the date the TB was put into this cache - it has obviously gone missing a long time ago and should be removed. Thanks again sevillegroup, it really is a very pretty area here.
Found this one today with Irontoad - nice quick find (luckily) as Irontoad had parked geocar illegally and thought that there wouldn't be many cars down this road today! How wrong were we - in the 3-4 minutes it took us to find, sign and return the cache there were 3 cars that went past the geocar!!! Ooops.
Nice easy find - we took the mirror ball and left a duck's head. TFTC sevillegroup and the adventure.

I had decided to take a day off from work (being such a wonderful day) and try for 50 finds in a day. Ultimately it was not to be for many reasons, including a few DNF's, the need to pick the kids up from school, and some difficult caches. In any event a good day was had by jsmyong55 and myself and this was one cache we were able to find. Found in the first place we looked. Thanks SG
Trailrunning had asked me a couple of days before if I was free on Friday for a run. I had classes till early afternoon but once he told me its his birthday and he will be aiming for a 50 cache run, I knew I had to have a go at that, eventhough if it meant skipping class.
Aiming for a 50 cache run with only 7.5 hours was a little too ambitious. Of course we did not manage 50 but I got to about 35 which was pretty good. We had started off well in the start, but a couple of long trail runs, heavy bushwhacking and off-trail hiking really threw us off. It was a lot better slowing things down and enjoying the adventure than racing for time.
Easy find. TFTC

Was in the area the day before so decided to return today to see if I could pickup the other caches surrounding the Warburton Trail but not on it. Nice drive by cache this one. TFTC sevillegroup.

Found on another legendary night caching run with my best mate Marty (Quasar3671). Took a few minutes to locate the well hidden cache. Nice hide. TFTC.
Hey our 2nd find (but logged in 3rd ... dah newbies huh?) This confirmed our suspicions that this game is for real! (It also helped us 'recognize a good geo cache hiding spot!) We left a disco ball from our lucky clubbing necklace.

found @ 15:45 with mum and dad (ross47). #4 of 10 for the day.
as we pulled up we could see a possible place. I had a look and found it straight away.
a lovely area and a great place for hiding things!
I enjoy coming out here, for how quiet it usually is.

A quick find @ 15:45 in the company of the geowife and emeraldflame. We spotted the likely location from the car and emeraldflame quickly confirmed it. Another nice area worthy of a return visit.

#341 Found at 2.40pm. Nice quick P&G on way through. GeoPrincess was a little disappointed that she couldn't see any horses around. This cache had been very well concealed by last cacher - thanks for the effort

Pony clubber city. Watch out for all the floats leaving post lunch time, if you're out on the last Sunday in the month. The upside of this cache is you could almost lean out of the car to retrieve it. A bit lazy though!! TFTC, LNTN.
Find # 1294 @ 16:09 on a caching day out with tackle_head (29/29)

found it nice and easy. The holly wasnt too bad either!! Let msg, took TB (QBRQ2Y)
Found at 1300. Pulled up next to GZ, and while I expected the cache to be hidden in spot, I found it lying semi exposed in another. Didn't see any horsies nearby though.
Thanks.
Thanks.
GPSr was trying to lead me astray but I made the find. Ouch!... that Holly does hurt.

I was on the way to another cache with A2Y when I saw this cache pop up on the screen. He had already done it but happpily sat in the car while I grabbed it. I think that it was here that I noticed that none of the newer caches around here have stash notes in them. They really should have.
We arrived at this cache and the rain began to fall and fall and fall. Like any good cacher with a wife you makes you coffee and dinner I decided to brave the elements and go and find the cache.
The cache was found and the wet weather gear did its job of keeping me dry, so after finding the cache I decided to take it to a dry car for logging.
Our thanks to the Sevillegroup for the cache.
Regards Mr.Coffee and the "Giddy up and get out of the rain" Coffee Clan.

Mrs Crackers was out with the Coffee Clan whilst Mr Crackers was still home recovering from his recent hip replacement and this was the eleventh cache of the day. The rain was now bucketing down and Mr Coffee being the gentleman that he is volunteered to brave the elements for the long walk to the cache and bought it back to the car for me to sign and take the geocoin
Thanks again sevillegroup
Thanks again sevillegroup
Kiwideb spotted this one before had even stopped the car - i.e. a nice quick and easy find. No swap made, but did leave the California Poppy geocoin. Thanks for the cache.
The light was really fading now, but another quick find with Eudes at 5:25pm. We were really in a hurry now and as we decided on one more before dark, communication wasn't our strong point .
TNLN
thanks sevillegroup

Number two on our list of "get 'em before dark" attack was another quick find at 17:20. The question now was "could we get one more?" (although it probably should have been "will we find it together?" ).
TNLNSL, although our night cache geocoin qualified for a visit by 4 minutes!! Thanks sevillegroup.

Found after a short detour on the way to Wallace and Gromit. No horses or cars which made finding the cache easy and a 3 point turn even easier! The rain was threatening at this stage but managed to hold off.

Found @ 12:45. Lots of good hiding spots near GZ. It was a great day for caching and I enjoyed my time searching. TNLN. TFTC. Cheers Ric
13.40pm.with maccamob driving and showing me the sights along these dirt roads i wonder what they are like when wet,as in england my other hobby is off roading.we then got closer for a nice little cache and dash.and we did have a lady on a horse go by with the usual g'day that i have now learnt.a cute hide thanks where i dropped in a tb "geo beaver" sltn.patandjeff=bones1.
13.40pm.just dropping in a tb "geobeaver" i will do my log for this cache when i get back to england.patandjeff=bones1.
Found by David in company with Bones1 from UK at 1340. We had just been discussing the lack of traffic on this quiet road when several vehicles appeared in quick succession. Luckily it was a transient phenomenon. Parked close to GZ but off the road, and spotted the tell-tale signs of a cache hide immediately. Had to wait for a lone horse and rider, who gave us a cheery 'G'day', to walk by before we could repace it. TNLN. Still more thanks to sevillegroup.
Our second cache attempt for the day and this time we were successful. As you say, a very horsey place... TFTC.
Once again I sent featherdown out of the car and once again it took a man's look to find the cache once I found somewhere suitabe to park. On cue two horses appeared and then another two followed by 6 cars. A busy place.

I don't know why I din't find this one as I was looking just 5 feet away. anyway it eventually was a quick find.
Thanks Sevillegroup.

Find # 2665 and 10th of the day at 11:50am. Acccompanied by Chewinprickles and Robmc on my first whole day out caching for the year. TNLN, Signed Log, Thanx Sevillegroup....
No horses or muggles this time. Just a bit of a laugh at Oenze getting himself stuck in the prickles.
Fortunately no horses on this thin trail. We were feeling very christmasy when Oenze found the only holy tree in the area (the hard way!)
Thanks, Robmc.
Thanks, Robmc.
Found at 1.35pm GAFF1. This is what we like - lovely views especially of the vineyards! Lots of rabbit signs about as well - hope rabbits don't like grapes.
Thanks sevillegroup.
Thanks sevillegroup.
We found our 10th Sevillegroup cache at 1:30pm as the 10th of 15 on our "Nothing but Seville" midday caching jaunt. A quick roadside stop here with a nice view off to the east. Thanks for the cache from D,H & A B-A.
