I did a check and the cache is missing, I'll archive it and let someone else have a go hiding one around here.
Had some business over this way with Mrs A in tow. Better do some RS caches and try to redeem myself on some of my DNF's. Mrs A driving the geomobile and me navigating.
Nearly a P&G. Coords were good which lead to a quick find. The log is getting a bit tatty but there is still room. TFTC Rainbow Spirit.

A great looking park.
Nice easy find, with a good cover in the rain to sign the log.

#327 Final of sixteen finds on a day's caching around Cecil Hills, Elizabeth Hills, Hinchinbrook and Hoxton Park. I must have been tired and the failing light wasn't helping, then I turned around and saw it. TFTC
15/5/16. 3:35 PM. Cache #3848.
1st of 7 this afternoon in Hinchinbrook.
Just like yesterday, I thought I'd spend some time getting some more finds down in the Liverpool area; today I picked Hinchinbrook and started at this cache. As I crossed the road and saw the structure I thought oh no, this could take some time. I did a quick scan of the sign and behind, and looked up. Hmm, not sure. Read a couple of logs but nothing stood out.
One more look and there it was. Phew, didn't take so long after all. Signed, replaced, and then continued off to "Hangin' by the Transit". TFTC.

Have been here before, but it was full of muggles, today the place is clear, soon found what we came for . The days getting hot now so we're headed home. TFTC
Log was completely full I folded up a new strip of paper should be rite to go for a lot more signings now
Found at beginning of dusk... therefore needed longer to spot it... nice park, went in for a short rest, a lot of unknown birds (at least for me unknown) were making quite some noise, so I decided to pick up my stuff again and proceed to the next cache... T4TC!
#1828 (7 of 10 today)
Another day plundering caches in the south west. The Geowife had a parcel that needed to go this way, so I selflessly offered to cache here today and make the delivery.
In the end I found 10, but unfortunately there were a few DNFs as well.
I could probably have grabbed more, but decided to find the first 4 on a long round walk.
[center]END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION[/center]
It was just a matter of looking in the right direction here. Started by not, but after a few minutes I turned my attention the right way.
CIH.
Took to a bench to complete signing duties then back for the replace.

Out on a late night caching spree with snoopy1976, contactpete and spy79 aka geowife. This was a nice quick find by snoopy and retrieved by CP. SL #1826 on streak day #987 TFTC
Great spot. I found myself a new hobby bring on the next, and check out my ig scottiepippen_ for some clues. of cause I didn't give it away. 6,3,15
Thankfully I found it quite quickly with a storm brewing overhead . The biggest problem was waiting for a break in cars to return it! TFTC!
I saw the cache on approach. Muggles at the play equipment while far away, were still able to see me so I used a natural tool to dislodge the prize. A stretch allowed it to be replaced.
A surprisingly quick find in the more likely of places. Soon had the cache back in place and walking back to the cars... Nothing like a late night trek to clear the head after a very long day at work lol
As we split up and started searching in grids.i was on one side with Salem and he was looking one way I was looking another when I heard his telltale whistle of finding a cache. Thanks rainbow spirit. Great sneaky hide tftc
Pulled up, got out, thought "that'd be a good place for a cache", and it was. Just happened to instantly look the right way from the right spot, for a change. Thanks RS.
On the homeward stretch of a four day visit to my cousin’s (which involved caching everyday) and after a few too complicated to attempt as the sun was setting were scratched off the list, realised I only needed two more to reach a new target of 1600. Quickly revised local map for an easy drive-by and added this one at the last minute. Couple of muggles about walking past or in their driveway across the road made retrieval of the quickly spotted cache a little more complicated but mission accomplished with one more to go.
BB Jnr and I were on the way home from the Liverpool Model Train Exhibition.
Looked and looked for a bit before something caught my eye. Bingo. Nice one RS.

Found the micro one at murragan park with sigevalee and ljde70. RS, you'll need more space for the logs.
Having attended to some business in the area, thought I might as well use the opportunity to do some Green Valley geocaching. After heading to a local bakery to buy a sultana snail it was off to find this cache. I had finished the snail but still hadn't found the geo. Finally spotted it after some 10-15 minutes. Thanks for the cache Rainbow Spirit!
Fairly easy find in the dark while passing through to keep the streak going.
Couldn't find a pen in the car, so had to go and buy one then come back to sign.
Good camouflage, hope I got the exact spot correct when I put it back. Felt a bit silly when putting it back and getting it down. Cute park.
Thanks for the cache!

1st day back at work today, no better way to start the working week then a cache in the afternoon !!
As I was in the area doing maintenance on a cache and this was on the way
A lovely park with a great play equipment for the kids and great tree planting too

Parked in front of GZ behind a semi trailer truck. Both vehicles provided the perfect shield from possible muggles in houses across the road.
Spotted quickly but short legs made the acrobatic retrieval a challenge!

I confess, I was all full of confidence when I turned up, but that confidence waned as I searched and did monkey tricks and found nothing. I wondered whether it was gone. Then I realised there was one place I hadn't looked, and sure enough, there it was. So I got myself into position for what was an easy retrieval. Thanks
Parked across the road from GZ. I check out many spots but wasn't getting far. Then read some previous logs, I knew what needed to be done. After some interesting movements and placement of myself, cache was found. TFTC.
Took Geokid to play in the park, and considered likely possibilities for the cache, based on hints from previous cachers. Had to wait awhile for Energy Australia rep to finish his house visits. Really enjoyed the gymnastics
Thanks RS for this very sneaky hide ,you certainly need a certain skill do this one,cheers
Finally grabbed this one after spotting it with a bit of PAF assistance from Wessiri last week. Tempted to grab it earlier however wasn't keen to spend my birthday in traction lest it all went wrong! Thanks for the hide.
After navigating the terrain I passed the cache be signed and the it was passed back to be replaced.
My journey home from work was a bit longer today as I decided to stop and collect a few new (and not so new) caches in the area. This was my first. Leave it to RS to make the seemingly simple not so simple. I should have guessed that it would be pointless searching the obvious spots. Eventually I had to refer to the previous logs to narrow it down. After a bit of 'gymnastics' (appropriate description by jkcourtz) I spied the cache, a few more manoeuvres later I had it in hand, fortunately I'm pretty agile. Nice cache, it was fun.
It helped being inspired by the gymnasts at the London Olympics to find this cache, thanks RS and those trees are growing well that you raised.
The nose Is just not sniffing this one today, grrrr save this for another day,, grrrr
Will return. Cheers
Will return. Cheers
