Second find for us. dragged the geokids and geowife out for a walk and found it easily. Lid missing from the cache so was full of water due to the amount of rain over the last few days. the bag with the log in it was also waterlogged. TFTC
Sorry for the late entry, We found it on the morning of ANZAC day (26th April) after having been to the dawn service and a great breakfast at the local cafe. The lid is rusty so we placed it back upside down and added a couple of stickers for any geokids and a new bag. Our geoson found it quickly. TFTF.
Found out having from with the friend on ANZAC Day.
Thanks for the cache Gum-nuts

The container is rust & therefore leaking. Suggest you replace it on site upside down so that water doesn't seep in through the lid.
This was my FIRST EVER cache to find!!
we took a picnic lunch and enjoyed the park - thank you for getting us out and about! I drive past here all the time but never take a minute to just sit back and relax here... was very nice!
Geohubby sat back with the big geokid and i went for an inconspicuous walk with the geobaby - amazing what disguise a pram can offer!
a few muggles around but they didnt seem to hover for very long which made it relatively easy.
the lid on the box has come completely away (but still sitting on top) however the log is still staying dry.

Whilst geo daddy chatted about pools, mum and geokids found this nice easy cache
Our last park cache for the day[^], we were all keen for a quick find and then some lunch! Geokids decided the hard way was the best way towards the cache, but managed it without us Geoadults needing to ring 000...this time rapid find by Geoson. Large group of muggles milling around the local bus stop up the road, made this one a little tricky. Ah the sweet taste of cache success
Yes the lid is broken off but still seals the cache

Happy very hot Australia day. My nephew found this for me as he drove me too it. Too hot to walk. Let's see if he get's into caching.
Lovely parks

Nice quick find in a beautiful park. As previous person said the container does need to be fixed or replaced as lid is rusted off. TUFC Gumnuts

Great find. Our first ever successful Geocache. Well camo'd. Lid hinge is broken and lid easily falls off so could do with repair.Thanks gum nuts!
A very nice park as others have said. The cache is not too hidden if you look in the right area, but the camo definitely does its job. Nice work gum-nuts! This park definitely fits the username of this cache's creator
We have driven past this park many times and it was great to stop off for this cach.....
what a nice spot, we sat and ate our lunch as we waited for a workman to finish up, thank you from the welch family
Little geocachers were in charge of this search so after a wander in the wrong direction and a lesson in using a GPS the cache was in hand.
Geobuddy had work Christmas function in Fremantle today, so decided to stop on way home and look for a few caches. Not that he was much help - a little bit too much Christmas cheer I think, not much help at all. But found this one ok. TFTC

Well GPS didn't want to settle on this one so went to the most realistic hiding spot to have no luck. So sat down to rethink my my plan and thee it was - what a good plan that was !
Out and about today working in the Baldivis area, so I thoufgt I would pick up a few caches as well. This was an easy find for the 1st in this area. SL TFTC
A gum-nuts Cache, surrounded by fallen gum nuts, over seen by some fine gum nut sculpture.
A great cache, if you like gum nuts... which of course I do.

A beautiful Spring day and a caching run through Baldivis with The Machman.
Wow what a lot of artwork at this park. I must admit to being a bit distracted looking at the street light. So I kept watch for muggles whilst The Machman found the cache. (At least that's my story!)

The whole park was completely empty except for one muggle who'd parked himself literally right on top of GZ. When we started milling around casually looking in a few places he became obsessed with what we were doing and became our nemesis for the next 20mins. He eventually wandered about 20m away and we took a split second opportunity to grab it while his back was turned. Coords were a bit off but other than our muggle friend it should have been an easy find. TFTC!
A very quick and easy find indeed! I searched the wrong object for a little while, and then redirected my attention for a very quick find in the right place.
The log was a little bit soggy in here. This end of the park was very quiet today, so I was able to sit and log my find in peace.
Thanks for the cache gum-nuts!

I can see the attraction of hiding a cache here! Very nice parkland and a lovely piece of artwork! And a nice easy find as well! Thanks for another hunt gum-nuts.
Found it at 11:15, great little find, took us a little while to find, thought it was somewhere else . Signed the log, left something very little and sparkly . Thank u
A good find - our last for today - now to ride back to the car before it gets too dark. TFTH
Should have looked at the GPS rather than assumed where it would be...still quite a quick grab with youngest Bassfam member on a dash past. TFTH
Oh dear. We found this one one a late night caching expo after dinner. Great park. Will have come back during the day .
Pretty sure we were looking in the right spot... But couldn't find it before the rain washed us away
After completing the series, I managed to convince Geowife that I needed to clean out the rest of my unfound caches in Baldivis. As we were going past this one, we stopped off and had a nice wander through the park. Eagle eyes was on it again and quickly checked the two likely structures, coming up trumps on the second one. He really was on fire today
Thanks for the cache gum-nuts

Took some racquets and attempted to play tennis. Then wandered past the giant gum-nuts and sat among the little gum-nuts and found Gum-Nuts! Thank you gum-nuts, for bringing us here. Couldn't fit any gum nuts in, so we signed the log instead.
This is a really lovely area. We had previously been to the lizard nearby, but we had not seen these gumnuts on the ground or the lovely flowers and gum leaves sculpture on this side of the park. Thanks for bringing us back here gum-nuts.
Wasn't where we thought it would be but it was a pretty easy find anyway. This is a nice park, been here before for another cache close by. TFTH. Ninth and final cache of the day!
A lovely park and water feature. Co-ords were spot on which made for a quick find.
Geokid jnr was in charge of gps and she had us looking in wrong spot till we checked the gps then she got us to gz quickly and it was a quick find by a very happy geokid jnr.
Took the long way home from work today so that this cache could be claimed. A lot of work has gone into making this park a nice new attraction for the area, Thanks Gum-nuts for bringing me past here again, and forcing me to stop and look around. SL TNLN TFTH
Found on way home from work, this is a nice park and a fine sculpture, fitting for Gum-Nuts to place a cache here, what a fine pair. SL TFTH and bringing us here.
Picked up at 9.10am before the day got too hot. Like this spot. Our first FTF and here we are on the other side of the world from home!
