I was near this one, doing a little job.I remembered that it's location had been changed from the original...this cache was just my second find, right back when I started.It seemed only fair that I found it again in the new location!The current cache is a significant upgrade from the original mint tin!!Log signed and the cache is in perfect condition. TFTC.

A road trip with my best man and his family; heading towards Kempsey with a few stops along the way, then returning via a different route and arriving home just before Christmas. Today I have been invited along to look at some properties in the area. It means caching is on the back burner for a little while today.

Back in town and I have time to seek out a few before dinner and it gets dark. This Greenhill ferry area is pretty cool. I found the cache easily and signed the log. Replaced as found and continued on to the next one. thanks for the cache and the hide.

Thought we would do a round of Claytons Golf this morning. Jumped in the car to leave, switched on the GPS only to find nothing was loaded even after checking last night. Remembered that I did a software update and this must of wiped the caches. Back in the caravan and loaded and off we went. Picked up those along the road getting there and on our way home, before it got too hot.

It's been a day of turning frowns upside down Smile
Here was another chance to be rid of that DNF !! [:o]

So back down at the riverside,
it was good to see the burnt out car had been removed Razz
The park is looking a bit nicer now,
and council seems to be taking care of it with a fresh mow having happened Big Grin

In the spot where the cache should surely be,
there it was ... Hip Hip Hooray Big Grin

09-Sep-18
A detour down the hill took me to what should be a picturesque riverside spot Smile
But until council removes the evidence of criminal activity that is blotting the landscape,
it seems a rather unsavoury place Sad

As for the cache !!
I couldn't find it after 20 minutes of scratching around !!
Even the other side of the road didn't reveal anything cachelike to my eyes Razz

We have headed south a few weeks early to have a little holiday prior to attending the Oz Geomuster Mega event. We have found ourselves based in Port Macquarie for a few days which has enable us to spend some time exploring some of the nearby towns. Razz

Today, we took a drive out toward Kempsey to explore the area and find a few caches while we were here [^] We had no difficulty in locating the cache and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way Wink

Thank you ozglory for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy Cool

Took the trip to Kempsey from Port today to collect a few caches, we were focusing mainly on the Monopoly series, but if others popped up nearby then they were fair game too.
#16 for the day... keeping the geo son out of the water was a bit of a struggle, however we were successful in both keeping him dry and finding the cache. The lid is a bit hard to remove, but we got through that too. Signed and returned...TFTC
 
16-Dec-17
Today we spent some time around Kempsey to find a few caches, this was our fifth for the day.

This cache took us about 10 minutes to find, we decided to expand our search radius where we found something that matched the hint but no cache was found. After combing through previous logs we were directed back to where we were looking originally.
Thanks for the cache
 
In Kempsey for the night. Took the time to locate some caches. Found the cache eadily.TFTC

Fun easy to find

We have moved on from South West Rocks to Kempsey to do some more caching. We've had a magic few weeks with the weather, and that looks set to continue for at least the next week, giving us plenty of time to gather a lot more caches. It looks like the CO's in Kempsey have been busy, so that will keep us on our toes for a while.
Mrs Ski looked with no result, but when Mr Ski looked in the same place he put his hand straight on it. Luckily cache blindness doesn't seem to be catching!

Hi there ozglory.

We found your cache **"Old Greenhill Ferry"** at 8:57:00 AM today. (This makes our total find count 17474).

Today we cached a round of golf near Kempsey - but we also had to find this one. As it's not part of the series so it deserves a finely crafted log, not one of the crappy cut-n-paste ones that usually are associated with power trails.

We had a most enjoyable morning & found 25 caches in a variety of container types and sizes (& DNF'd 0). Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny
