Well everybody said how they had found it easily and quickley, not me, I did quite a bit of looking and was giving up, when I thought to myself, just maybe, and there it was, have come to the conclusion I am a bit dense, did not sign as had left the pen in the car, when I took my jacket off because it was getting hotter and hotter.

Find Number 2048 found at 10:24. This was the 1st of 5 finds today

Today's job was to attempt six caches each unfound for more than 6 months. We headed to Port Kembla to try for the "Joe Baker", "Who Lit #2" and "Jerry" triple.

Our first stop was here in Kiama, for a cache unfound since July. The family in the house next to GZ were working on a car in the driveway, but they didn't seem to notice me. After a couple of searches in obvious, but wrong, spots I found the cache in its hidey hole.

The log was damp but useable, otherwise the cache was in good condition. We took nothing, left nothing, signed the log and replaced the container as found

Thanks alex_pappas7 for the cache.

Eventually the cache was found. I don't know if the cache will survive a clean-up by Council in this reserve as a tree has nearly fallen close by. Thanks for the hide.
 
27-Mar-18
The log seems to be close to full and it has suffered dampness. Also, as noted in my "found" log, a Council clean-up of fallen foliage may threaten the cache as well.
 
27-Mar-18
This geocacher reported that the logbook is full.

Found on the 19/11/2017 at 4:50:00 PM.

A planned caching trip out to Yerranderie this weekend was cancelled due to the forecast heavy rain, but Delloro and I were still keen to get out and find some treasure, so a day trip down the coast was planned instead.
Last cache for the day. Found the cache easily (surprised it was still there) and we were chased away by a swarm of hungry mozzies.

Thanks for the cache.
