New fencing made access tricky. Found lying on the ground. Replaced in a hole in the post. TFTC
Finalf29 and I traveled up for the day for The Booos' Easter at Sales Event. We met up with SueDan83 and they chauffeured us around for the day. We had a fantastic day... great weather, wonderful company and awesome caches. Thanks to The Booos and Booo Booo
This was our first. DanSue said "just tell me if there are any caches you want to get along the way"... I realised there was one just up the road and DanSue pulled up next to the cache with all the geocaching expertise of one of his caliber. Cache found and signed with the beautiful sounds of Bellbirds. Thanks

The hunt continued around this area to put some more smileys on the map along with ilook4geo. This was another nice easy find. Many thanks go to The Booos for placing this cache. The ants were quite upset at being disturbed when the cache container was removed from its hiding spot, They'll get over it.
Some more caches found around this area when we came along with goingplaces2. Had a good day and found what we wanted, just missing some for various reasons. Log signed and replaced. TFTC.
Did not find today. Looked in likely areas but based on previous logs this one is tricky. Found older photos and checked those locations as well and no luck, but not sure if cache hiding has changed since then. Rain didn’t help today either, hopefully next time.
Out and about while the geowife has her hair done. Picking up a few local caches. It seems to be the regular comment for me lately. My device wasnt really helping me as much as it should have. Eventually sensing my way to the hide. Could have been tricky, but managed to extract the beast, but the device had me looking elsewhere (check the photo). Oh the joys of caching!

Finding this cache was easy - retrieving it was the hard part! Firstly because it was covered in spiders web, and secondly because an entire colony of ants had decided to call the cache's hidey hole their home.
I had obtained a trusty stick two caches earlier, and it was worth its weight in gold here. I managed to get the cache and rid it of ants. Thankfully the inside was untouched. Signed the log. TFTC!

A quick find on my the way to cache in the Camden area. Signed log and returned as found. TFTC
Great hide found easily but as others have stated we must look crazy to the passing by cars but well worth it
A straightforward find on my way to Camden to tackle the new AL there. TFTC Booos.

In the area picking up a purchase on eBay. A quick park and grab. TFTC!

Too many muggles today to spend quality time looking. A quick search but no results. Will be back.
couldn’t find! probably could have but then the property owner started looking at us so we left
Another quick park and grab with geowife on our kid free night out to dinner. Nice hide and to learn about tis place. Thanks again The Booos.
Out for a kid free night with Gundrills and thought we’d do some of the local caches that were in desperate need to be found.
Thanks for another great hide The Booos!

A nice fresh start to the morning on the way to Cobbitty markets , thanks for the quick find
On the way to Camden today. Picking us a few caches shiva have gone down since I was down this way last. TFTC
Today I teamed up again with marj01 for another day of caching, this time around the Narellan/Camden/Cobbity areas. We had a very enjoyable and adventurous day visiting the cache locations, finding a heap of hides but also a few DNF's along the way.
A quick find. TFTC

Visiting the D House today , dropping Muggle offspring off for a TV Shoot.
A handy pick up . Glad there wasn't a hint .
Nice placement. Cheers.

It's funny how hard it is to let go of a preconceived idea when your mind is made up as to what kind of container a cache might be.. I was just about to give up on this one because 38° is generally hot enough to make me sick. Determination (or is that stubborness?) took hold though and I soon had the cache in hand and signed. TFTC
I initially searched GZ and then other likely hides, Rechecking the signal took me back to the GZ and the cache.

Thanks for another Park and Grab. Day 284. Managed to get a scratch from the hide.
Not the usual spot I suspected!

I love this series of historical houses. I got to GZ and was looking around when a car drove up and went through the front gate, walked away then went back looking around. GPS finally settled, I couldn’t see much of the cache because a spider decided to put a web over it, but got the little sucker.
5/6/17. 7:41 AM. Cache #5069.
1st of 11 today - Cobbitty, Kirkham & Epping.
For the first time in a while, I was able to head out early on a weekday morning, and to head out before the peak hour traffic got too bad. Decided to head southwest again, but a fair ways west of where I'd been yesterday.
Started at this one with a nice easy find to kick things off. After signing and replacing, I kept going west to "Cobbitty Road Cobbitty". TFTC.

Isn't Denbeigh the name of Raymond Reddington's bodyguard on The Blacklist???

Found with nissan 65 on a two night/day caching adventure from the south coast. Thanks for the cache .
Noted the property name (spelt as per description not cache name) on the security gate as several cars came and went with occupants either wondering why I had parked in their driveway or if I had found the container they are aware of. Co-ords spot on for a quick find and at least I didn’t need to loiter too long.
Last find for the day. We found the old cache container first (missing its top) stuck in the ground and then managed to spot the actual hide. We put the old container back near the new one. Thanks for the cache!
The last cache of the day, this one was another park and grab. It took me a little while as the hiding spot was covered by cobwebs. But I got there in the end. Thanks so much to rassilon256 for driving and baring with me as I searched for caches that he had already found! Such a patient gentlemen who's company is always welcomed. This has been a highly successful caching day thanks to rassilon256! TFTC
The last cache for the day, and then we really had to get home. I finally learnt from experience on this one, and stayed in the car whilst llama_boy searched and signed. He returned after barely 2 minutes, saying "Sorry I took a while, the cache was disguised by cobwebs.".
That's 36 finds for us today, 32 of them llama_boy's. Oh and one NM. Even for people who don't do it for the numbers, that's exciting. Thanks to llama_boy for another excellent day out, and here's to many more to come. Though we may have to go a lot further afield for them at this rate!

Just realised I have forgotten to log my cache finds. Found this in November. I did sign the log so you should find my chicken scratch squiggled across the page. TFTC.
I'm new to this and this was our first year one. Didn't quite know what to look for so couldn't find it. How well hidden are they? I'm guessing they're not behind the gate on private property?
#3510 (5 of 17 today)
I was preparing to go on a cache binge today, as recently I've been back to a quick scramble for a cache later in the day.
With the Geowife's blessing I was getting ready to go and noticed some publishing had occurred.
I spotted one new cache that fitted in with my day's plans, so decided to go for it, then continue on towards Camden, where I could make a lot of quick finds - I hoped.
In the end I got 17 finds and a few DNFs. And I managed to snag the First2Find on the new cache as well.
Top day!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Parked over the road and had the right idea straight away, despite the spider webs - a hide type I've seen from the CO a number of times. Quickly spotted and grabbed. Completed signing duties and away.

I found this cache as a joint part of “Team” *Throsbyonchurch* and in which name the log book was signed. I now have my own account as I’m old enough to cache myself, so I am claiming a fair share of my earlier finds. As I had no caching name at the time there's no log in the book for me but I’m claiming the find under team ToC. Thank you for the hide.
Found it . -- 4:46 PM -- SL TNLN TFTH. Thanks for bringing us here.
Cache in good condition.
A gorgeous sunny spring day for geocaching, albeit a bit windy and a tad nippy. Today we left home much later than I had wanted, nevertheless, we scored a nice bucket of cache finds - if I get 10 in a day I am happy, and anything else is a bonus. Today 11 Finds, 1 Trig, some Waymarks and a few attempted DNF. Traveling away from home I don't waste time hanging around trying to find a cache if I haven't located it in the first five minutes. I like to make the most of my day out and I know I will be coming back again in the future. I was thinking of heading out to The Oaks and Burragorang today: but started tossing up staying in Camden as I have previously found it a good place for picking up caches quickly and easily. I discovered today that Camden is NOT the centre for cache quick picks, I think I just got lucky the first time I came here. Anyway, I ended up staying in Camden and attached a good number of The Boos caches and had an amazingly wonderful time doing so.
This cache was in hand fairly quickly. Thank you for the hide.
Second last cache today. Great views here and pretty too. Tricky find, but wasn't too hard for us.
*** NO trackables found in this cache ***

TFTC. We were at this one a few months ago when part of the cache and log were missing - were able to write in it and log the visit today on our way past now that it has been replaced.
Streak Day #1156 - Stopped by here with dave8153 for our 3rd find for the evening. TFTC
