My husband was playing golf this morning so i had a plan to go for a nice bike ride and collect some smileys along the way. I left early due to a storm prediction at 11am and arrived at the suggested parking for Cycle tour #1 to start my ride at 6.30am and all up i found 25 caches in just over 4 hours with a nice stop at one park for a picnic breakfast i took along. I had a great ride and enjoyed the serenity . What a great day to be a geocacher .At GZ i soon spotted the hide . Thanks GraKez for taking me on this great cycle trail.
Out with a great group this avo on a borrowed e-scooter to do the new Scubby Creek trail.( Thx Pauline ). My first time on an e-scooter, but it was real fun and so much faster than walking.... ????After this was completed, made a quick detour to collect two othger trads close by. All good here. TFTC

GCLOGAN TripGreat location I am travelling with GrimRaider to GCLogan and then to western NSW on our first trip with the van. Thanks for hiding this cache GraKez
WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 149 - Logan Day 2. GCLOGAN event day 1. Grimraider, Kitty Katch, Smitten Granny and I set off to do some Labs near Rochedale and Sunnybank before the first big event for the week at Underwood park. There was a great food van onsite and there even some caches to do around the area. We were all allocated Where-i-gos for the afternoon, so off we went each separate group to give them a go. Once we had finished that we used the rest of the day to do some local caching around the area we ended up in after the where-i-go was completed. It was a latish return to the van where I cooked dinner and tried to do some of the logging I should It is going to be a week of falling further and further behind. After finishing our where-i-go, we headed on to a few more local caches. The end of this back road still had some traffic, but it did not stop us walking down to the cache and finding the cache.Thanks for the cache GraKez49204.9 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & Geocaching NSW 2021 A#451**Albida**
After the GCLOGAN Event, at lunchtime, Albida33, Kittykatch and I set out to grab as many caches as we could. This was a good quick one that we found and signed before heading on to the next. I can read a lot more into the name of the cache now. TFTC GraKez very clever.
Quick find, the smell made it difficult but got there. Thanks for the cache
Out on our bikes scoping out some cache hides ready for GCLOGAN in September. This was an easier find than I made it!!! All in good order. Thanks GraKez for the cache.
I was chasing another nearby cache and had parked the car in Meakin Street so I though I may as well walk up and have a look for this oldie while I was here. It's not the prettiest of locations with lots of rubbish dumped in the area. Thankfully it was a nice quick find in the only obvious spot. Although the outer container is definitely showing it's age, the cache has been maintained well by the community and the new log was in good condition. No sign of a question, though, so I'm not sure if it's still possible to solve for the final. Thanks GraKez for the creation of the series and the original placement of this cache!
Needed a cache thats name started with the letter E for a challenge cache Im working towards. This is also cache find 1 of 12 towards gaining the December Solstice souvenir.Finished work at 0600 hours and headed out to the GZ. What a salubrious location and the smell WOW! Thankfully the cache was located quickly and log signed. Now to head home and disinfect. No lid on the cache container.TFTC. SL. TBs Prado Owl , Leap Frog Race - Motorbike and Scarface visited.Find # 1814.
Found It!A quick find here. This mint tin has seen better days though.TFTC
Found, albeit the Eclipse tin is in a bad way - rusty and missing the lid. Clean clip seal bag with log inside though (log in pieces but still writeable). Not sure I want to think about what has covered this tin during floods etc., given the nearby danger sign!
Was in area for another cache and as this one wasn’t far from where I parked decided to find this one also. Was a little smelly here. TFTC GraKez
Out for a drive with Triple turmoil as she need to entertain the younger child for a few hours. We hit a few caches and ended up with just a couple of finds and a couple of DNF’s. This did help in keeping my own personal challenge kicking along, thank you for the fun today. this one took a little driving around to get to but we got there. HMM a slight wiff in air???? We found this one very easily, signed the log and continued back to hopefully get another in the area. thanks for placing this one here all good.
Accurate gz and quickly found while on a brief afternoon of caching with Chamad.
Richmond Lad and I made a reasonably quick find but we were hindered a bit by the aroma of the location. Thanks
Out and about caching today - noticed this was an OLD cache dating back to 2009. Arrived at GZ and yes there was a different smell there. A quick search was needed. Took a little while to find but eventually found. TFTC GraKez
Upon approach there was something sweet yet skanky in the air. It was almost like the smell of sewage, but the kind of sewage that people might produce if they are on a diet of roses and lavender. It was confusing but also slightly intriguing.
I wasn’t hoping this was a long search but was rewarded quickly. TNLNSP

Our aim today was to pick up some more 'may need swimming' attribute caches to fill in a monthly challenge that we all needed.
Travelling on our scooters & Caching with RoddyC grannysmith1947.
Quick find. Lid is missing but where it is hidden we don't think it really matters. Log is safe and dry in its own capsule.

Need a new container for this one the log is impossible to get out! Pretty scratchy
Really good spot, we probably wouldn’t have found it without the logs from other people. Unfortunately no clue or log in the tin, would’ve been good to complete the full series with all the clues but hopefully some of the other tins still have the clues. TFTC
A nice quick find while avoiding the Walking Dead after our three day lockdown... tftc...
Got pulled over by a police and asked why we were down here they were lovely. tftc
This was a quick find however I think the cache needs a bit of maintenance as it was almost rusted shut. Didn't exchange anything this time as it doesn't look watertight. Thanks for the cache
Change of plans today.
Had to drop off the rest at Garden City, some caches in this area for me.
What a big lid! the area was quite smelly in the heat today
Thank you for this one

A much more interesting place than I thought I would find on my way down the road...it did not open while I was checking it out...TFTC!
Quick easy find with the clue. Signed log but no clue found for the series of caches. Cheers! Spellzen & Teazr
Good hiding spot. Found by the 9 year old. Must get wet in heavy rain though. Signed & left a mini pencil for the log.
Found this easily, cool idea with the magnets. The log was wet so didn’t sign and also couldn’t find a clue.
With recent forced visits to the nearby medical establishment I have ventured to the darkside in search of caches. I'm not so sure I'd like to be around if a forced flush of this system occurs
Well isn't this an unusual drain system. It kind of looks and works I guess, like my laundry floor drain that goes outside with the little flap on it.
It would be interesting to see this flap fly open with gallons of water flying out of it. Today however it was so quiet down here I could hear water trickling up near where I parked.
I soon spotted the cache which I found in probably the best spot really.
Well done GraKez, thanx again

Easy find on a funny night, it can't decide if it is going to rain or not. Could find a clue in the cache but signed the log and replaced cache as found. I think this cache may have gone under water during the big wet we had after Debbie. TFTC
TFTC... 20/2/17. Out with Lisylou and bennyboppers finding a smelly autodoor. Kept an eye on it too.
In the local area today and thought I'd see if I could find this one. On approaching GZ, I saw the old rusty mint tin laying on the grass, it was clogged with old wet log sheets and my geo friend said she had a spare she could replace it with. The cache was returned to where it should have been with magnets in place, thanks GraKez 
Log book wet. Replaced. Tin suffering from rust, no spare with me.
