Not sure where it could’ve been as the area was not the best, but it was still fun to look!
This was our second try for this one and after finding it so quickly we wondered how we missed it last time.
Log is damp but we were able to carefully sign our name before replacing as found.

Out for a bit of a ride. Some caches to hunt and a bit of cache maintenance to do nearby too.
A nice quick find here. The container is not waterproof and the log that the previous finder has left is already damp.

Hunting for some Hidden Creatures today, I came across your cache . This was a quick find but the log was quite wet so I’ve added a little notebook. On returning the cache , a huge spider jumped out and I screamed the park down!! Oops Tftc
After a slow start to the caching morning due to a technology fail, we were slowly making our way to Springfield for shopping and lunch. As we pulled up near the park, my daughter who is 16 raced off to frolic in the playground. The rest of us headed to GZ where my son grabbed the cache.
The lid must not have been done up tight because the log book is sloppy but we found a place to fit our stamp. We looked back at our teenage daughter who seemed to be having toooo much fun for someone her age and so we all decided we had to have a fiddle with the playground. In fact we ended up spending more time trying to pretend we were young than finding the cache.
How high could we swing, slide and climb? For Mrs Woodyrothwell and I it wasn't that high but our kids were trying to outdo each other in a battle royale. The kids decided time was better spent being stupid than finding caches. Thankfully the lord dealt stupid to us in spades. tftc

We made a special trip out to find this one tonight with my eldest daughter because today marks the 17th anniversery of geocaching. Apparently according to geocaching.com something cool is suppose to happen to your geocaching account if you find a cache on this particular day.
Anyway so we pulled up and took the secret shortcut between the houses and found ourselves at the gz. A quick snapping of a branch provided the perfect prodding stick. While the oldest stood at the path holding the torch and cowering dad was went down the hill, prodded something and nearly got creepy crawled by a MASSIVE spider. Lucky dad runs pretty fast and soon we had the geocache in hand, signed and returned before the scarey death spider came back. Tftc

I spent a few hours with joojoo57 today, but she needs to head home. I probably should too, but maybe just one of two more????
Last one for the day and a short walk brought me straight to GZ where I made a quick find. It was neatly out of the sight of the folks in the playground. TFTC, glasslady88.

Easy find -was out in the open for all to see and no treasures 
. Have hidden it in same place but covered now and left a toy whistle for the next geo hunter
. Have hidden it in same place but covered now and left a toy whistle for the next geo hunterSome caching time today before heading down to the Gold Coast for a special dinner. We found the pathway quite OK and soon after the cache.
Log signed & replaced again. Found at 4.35pm on 18th March 2017. TFTC, glasslady88.

Parked the car and walked down to the GZ. Have been passed here before and there were dogs barking. This time it's quiet as.... Didn't take to long. TFTC
Out caching with Richmond Lad and this was our last - what a lovely pond nearby - looks quite healthy! Thanks glasslady88.
Finished our day off with a quickie. Now we have two very tired geokids.
I had the use of a car for a short time today whilst mine was in for a service. So I quickly made my way here from where I was and made the short walk between the houses. The cache was quite tight in its hole but a wiggle out and I signed the log. TNLN TFTC glasslady88
In the area for work, so I thought I would grab a quick cache. It actually took a bit longer to find, but I did in the end. Left some TB's to continue their journey. TFTC.
Popped by today to find this cache. It was quite exposed, so turned it around and gave it a little cover. Shouldn't deter a geocacher, but should help keep it from being muggled. TFTC! TNLNSL.
I was on my way home but figured I might just have time for a fast find here.
I overshot the best entrance and had to pull in and walk down the trail behind the houses. My torch was handy as I discovered a lot of water around. Soon I was at the GZ and the helpful hint took me to a likely spot where I saw the cache lid and discovered a very helpful street light.
All good here despite the deluge so TFTC.

Needed a cache to fill a hole in our calendar & noticed that this one was nearby.
Made the short detour & quickly arrived close to GZ.
Wandered in to GZ & had a bit of a scratch around for a quick find.
The compass tended to play it's own game so I turned it off & went with caching instincts instead. LOL ...
Nice quick find.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

. A few meters from GZ but still findable from hint.While hubby away on a training course, I decided to head out for a few easy caches for Leap Year Souvenir. This one is not too far from home so took the drive to pick this one up.
After initially taking the wrong turnoff, had to continue along a bit further on to get to this cache.
Noticed some rubbish lying around, so did a bit of CITO while on my way to the cache.
Cache found out in the open, so after signing the logbook, replaced near where I think it should be and covered with natural camo (leaves and sticks) and hope it will stay hidden until the next finder.

decided to stay on my bus today until the last stop, conveniently paced close to this cache.
Walked in past a spot i know well and followed the path to GZ (where the cache was soon in hand).
TFTC all in good order here!

Missed out on a first to find here, ran into Crew 153 on the way to the cache who was off to another cache and had already found it but good to see a familiar face. Wasn't long before we found it, signed it and returned as found. TFTC.
**FTF** Joint First to find with Nature0Nut and Crew153. Was actually out placing a couple of local caches when these came up so N0N and I headed out to grab an Ftf. Got to Gz to see crew153 still hunting. First place I looked I put my hand on it, so thankful for a quick find. Tftc
Joint **FTF** with Cantcacheus2014 and Crew 153.
Today Cantcacheus2014 and I were out so he could teach me how to triangulate coords properly. As soon as we were getting to some locations to place some caches *BINGBINGBING* notifications came through! We quickly forgot about what we were doing and headed straight for this cache. When approaching GZ we caught up with Crew 153 and gladly shared the FTF. This was a quick and easy find! Thanks for bringing us here! TFTC!!

Sitting quietly at home and updating my PC to Windows 10 and saw notification of this cache come through and decided that it was close enough to home for me to have a chance at getting a rare *FTF*. I grabbed the car keys and headed off.
The skies decided to open up as I left and I wasn't really prepared for the deluge that was coming down.
I parked around the corner near the park and took the route through the puddles with a bright blue/white beach towel draped over my head.
That was pretty effective at keeping most of the rain off but it did hinder my searching as it would fall off when I bent over.
I had been searching for about 5 minutes in different spots when I looked up to see cantcacheus2014 approaching. He walked straight to a spot where I hadn't looked and pulled out the cache. Some people just have the knack.
The Black Flag Team were just pulling up as I hopped back into the car
