I decided to make a stop by this cache as it was almost on my way. A quick find was made and the log signed. WIth everything returned as found, I continued on my way. TFTC
Parked 10m from GZ, looked on by interested cows from across the street.Nice quick one without fuss, thanks for the hide Shockers
We have travelled up from Sydney's Northern Beaches to the Central Coast, staying at the Norah Head Holiday Park (caravan park), for a short four day mid-week holiday. Stopped off on the way up at Somersby Falls and completed the Adventure Lab located there, then grabbed a few Traditionals and a Virtual cache before returning to the freeway and on to Norah Head. Planning on exploring areas surrounding Tuggerah Lake, including The Entrance, and up to Budgewoi. Also hoping to get out to Halloran for the Wizard Of Oz cache trail. Photos will be uploaded to logs on our return to home base. This was the 10th of 12 finds for the day (day 1), and 10th find of the holiday.
This one was next, and it was a nice quick find not too far from the retreat's entrance driveway. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC Shockers.

A quick park and grab at this spot. Another extensive looking centre that we have never looked at closely before.
The nearby sign for weddings was interesting as we were just discussing the rise of the wedding venue up this way. When we got married there was really only one commercial option, now there are heaps.
The grass just off the road is a bit touchy with a dry patch abruptly giving way to boggy mud, so be wary of parking until we hit some dry weather.

And the rain came tumbling down, Earthly65 the intrepid climbed the mountain and was first to find in this little trio. Found with Robbieracer66 and Earthly65
Spent the weekend here for a family wedding at The Stables. Could hardly believe my luck when there was a cache so close!

A quick nocturnal run up the coast for some cheap(er) fuel and a quick cache. Checked the right spot but wrong elevation before seeing a hint through the covering. Thanks Shockers.
The container had been nibbled too much so it's been replaced but is still in correct situ.
Great little find and info. As previous finder said, something had a peck at it
Nice spot very peaceful but I think a local has had a bit of a nibble on the container TFTC

Another easy find on my slowish drive from Sydney to Newcastle, due to caching diversions off the M1. TFTC Shockers

After all the rainy weather, it was good to get out in the sunshine after a 10 day slump. I was on my way north for a family gathering and decided to tackle a few caches around this area on the way.
Found the holier than thou item, which was even holier as it appears some small creature has chewed a tiny hole or two into the base. But contents all dry. TFTC

In the area for a few days and before we headed back home we stopped off at the falls to complete the nearby Adventure Lab and then proceeded to grab a few more caches in the area. A quick find after allowing the driving muggle to pass by. With the cache in hand we signed the log before replacing as found. Thanks for the cache Shockers.

Heading back to the Big Smoke after a good but long morning on the Central Coast this was my last caching stop before joining the M1.
I have been here before about 5 years ago but was chased away by muggles so I was keen to try again to find the cache.
This is a very peaceful area, and so green and picturesque. I liked the Gymea Lilies which were flowering here. From the cache GZ I could see into some flowers - they are interesting. This seems to have been a great season for them as there were plenty in the location we bird watched in too.
This time I didn't see any muggles and found the cache quickly. Signed the log. The last name on the log was Purplepeopleater so the last 2 finders may have been armchair finders and not been here at all.

With the day off work, I decided to take a drive in the countryside to get away from people, and find a cache that was well isolated. This one looked pretty good, and once I was parked roadside next to it, the cache was quickly located.

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Thank you for the maintenance
July 2018 Weekend trip to Watagen National park for the Lake Macquarie History series with Fiztzy_1965 and MinnieK.
On the way North we took the old highway and collected as many caches as we could along the way. No luck finding this one today.
Thanks.

Thought we'd spend a morning geocaching along Peats Ridge road. But seems to be a lot of traffic particularly with bicylcle riders. Must be some event on. Nice to find one just off and away from the traffic.
After heading up to clean up some finds around Morriset I had missed during the Oz Geomuster I decided to stop on the Central Coast for a few more, as I only have the work car for a few more days then it is back to public transport for a while. I had DNFed this back in 2015 but not sure how I missed it as it was a straightforward find today so glad to cross it off the list. Thanks Shockers.
Today was the day we had planned to attend the OZ GeoMuster 2018 in Morisset. An awesome event, and next time, we will have to plan to stay closer to having more caching time and meeting more awesome people.

I had not planned to visit this cache on the way, but we decided to make the quick detour. We approached GZ and could see many possible hide locations, but searching through each of them did not reveal the cache.
As we had OZGM plans, we abandoned the hunt to continue our journey north.

Made a few detours on my way to the Oz geomuster in Morriset. Enjoyed driving in new areas and on unknown roads. Had little problems finding all caches, the the increasing heat was coming quick!

Had a decent look under time restrictions. Found some good spots where it may have been but nothing in sight. Will come back when I have more time
We had an appointment very close to this one so couldn’t resist a quick grab.
I love the countryside around here, lovely paddocks

We needed a cache today for a souvenir so we headed out for a quick find before heading to Gosford Sailing Club to help run a regatta and set up for New Years Eve on the marina. (We had a great view of the Gosford fireworks.)The cache was a good choice as it was a very quick find with good coordinates.
Thanks for the hide Shockers.

Felt a bit exposed at GZ, but found the cache after a couple of minutes. Overlooked the hiding spot at first, the cache is small and not in a large hiding spot. I found the hint VERY helpful. TFTC!
#4398 (24 of 27 today)
The Geowife has a card making class today on the Central Coast - and as it goes ALL day, I've thoughtfully volunteered to do chauffeur duties... So what will I do between 9am and 6pm? I wonder...
As I'd already cleared out the caches near the class venue (and needed breakfast and petrol) I knew I realistically had 8 solid hours of caching, so decided on a circular route and had hoped to find 30 - 35 caches, including a few bush ones. Didn't quite work out that way as I had a few long DNFs. In the end found 27 - probably could have got 30 if not for driving past a few due to not spotting parking possibilities. And didn't get to the final area I was targeting near Narara where I'd even solved a few puzzles.
But a good day, with plenty of driving for *The Hademobile*.
And in the mix was my 4400th find. Decided to let that one fall where it may. That required 26 finds today, so thankfully I did just get there.
Thanks to **xPhenoms**, whose *Motorcycle* series provided many of the day's finds - parking for which I suspect is easier if travelling by motorcycle!
I also grabbed a few of **Shockers'** *CAW* series.
I'll try to make one or two unique comments for each cache, but so many to do...
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Well this was another cache today that took me a lot longer than it should.
The iPhone was pointing over the fence. Well that's helpful.
Checked the right spot early on and missed it. Took another five minutes before I came back and realised what a great job the camo was doing.
Made the grab, completed signing duties and replaced.

Second target for my caching trip around Somersby today. Saw that the container had been relocated and replaced. Followed iPhone and hint right to GZ to make a quick find. Signed the blank log, replaced and made my way to Old Scribbly.
