I checked it and it was gone.
Time to let it go, and rethink a new hide sometime in the future.

3rd of 4 DNFs (& 6 finds) - Casula, Hinchinbrook, Green Valley & Busby.
I had a great first hour of caching this afternoon in Casula - 5 finds from 5 attempts. I can't say the same for the next 2 hours - 4 DNFs in a row which were all quite frustrating.
Came here after another strike out at "Rocks Galore", The hint narrowed down the search area to three places. After feeling around and moving lots of camo and even trying maruce's method, I was empty-handed here as well. Headed off for one more failure at the aptly named "Hopeless Cache".

A sad DNF for me today.
A bit soggy under foot to the GZ after the rain yesterday.
Read some of the logs but I was 'stumped'.

#1830 (9 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]
Quick find despite the very nice camo - it's camo I've seen a number of times before, and even in the gathering dark, the Geotorch only confirmed the find.
Took away to complete signing duties, then time for one or two more?

For quiete some time now we're looking for an apartment / a property in Sydney (and it's surrounding) and found this cache after a viewing, thanks for it 
I scraped away the detritus and in flipping one piece saw that it was the hide. TFTC
A very shady looking bloke turned up, paced, had three smokes & in general was making us nervous so we decided to leave and try again later. No sooner did we get the kids in the car, he jumped in his car and drove off?? Ok, so we will stay then. We soon had camo'd cache located. We were not stumped tftc xo
tftc xoVery ingenious hide this one. Very sneaky camo. Found on a quiet Thursday night with the geo gang. Parked near cache and stretched our legs and came up winners. Tftc.
A cleverly concealed and camo'd cache. With 2 of us looking in the same spot we made a meal of this one though 
lol always fun looking for hides from this CO even if a DNF is the result- luckily not this time TFTC

Having 3 of us searching it was exactly where I thought it would be ... Unfortunately we had no pen! Good hide TFTC
Omg took me ages to find but after long hard looking with my boyfriend it was possible
While on my way to the airport today I thought I'd give this one a go as I had a bit of time to kill. I need this one for another alphabet challenge Cache up in QLD so I was glad to find it. I thought it would be a simple find but the local magpie had other ideas. I had to walk backwards most of the way so as not to get swooped but he left me alone while I was at GZ and also on the way out. Nice hide. TFTC.
Found it very easily this morning.
It mustn't have been there last time I was here. LOL!

Day 21 of the "31 Days of Geocaching" streak.
A simple but effective hide.

Found with Andre3000 while out for a lunch break hunt. On finding the cache Andre3000 proceeded to shake it like a Polaroid picture. Why, I'm not sure 
We parked in a nearby street and made our way over via the path and then across the grass. We saw a likely spot so put the GPSr away and then started a bit of search and and soon pulled up a nice bit of camo. We removed the log and completed the signing duties before re hiding. TFTC RS

Arrived & started walking to GZ, looked at the hint and thought Oh NO ! (see pic)
Luckly it wasn't as bad as I thought quick find with name in log

Attempted 5 caches in the area today, and this one was second on the list. The clue helped and soon the cache was in hand. Good to hear about the history of this place. Thanks!
Back on line, slightly different camo, I have upped the difficulty a bit, enjoy.
I must be getting better at finding caches - a couple of months ago I would never have found this! Had to dodge a couple of dog walkers to retrieve the cache.
The hint is a great help although, as wessiri mentioned, the immediately obvious option didn't prove to be the correct one for me.

This was a nice easy find while I was in this area on a cache run this morning. Thanks
Geokid found this one. Weather a bit iffy. Left pen in car - so left a smudge of dirt as our log. Txs RS. #64
Came to Liverpool today for the annual train show, but made some detours on the way and the way back home to Penrith. Parked nearby to have the GPSr send me to the power lines instead, but a easy find in the end once found GZ. TFTC.
Well hidden by the last finder had to paf to see if it was still there,cheers
Arrived here after finding Murrigan. This one was a little more straight forward than the last, even so I initially overlooked the cache, despite it being exposed, opting first for the obvious option. Signed log and moved on to the next. TFTC
The sun was just rising as we crossed the frosty ground to GZ. After a short search the cache was in hand, and then it was back to the warmth of the geo-mobile, thanks.
YAY *FTF* can't belive my luck, quick find , it's a bit boggy here, shoes are coated in mud.. Well worth it, YAY. TFTC
