Thanks for cache! Found with CutieGuyCherry after a pie and custard tart at the bakery down the road.
Quick find. Signed log and replaced as found. Thanks for maintaining this cache.
My last find for today. A quick park and grab ... luckily ... because I was soggy from an arvo of caching in the rain, and I've got to get back to my housesit to feed the dog and cook my own dinner too!Nearby residents were doing what a good Aussie male would be doing on a Satdee arvo ... working on his car to some tunes ... .Careful not to disturb a slow moving creature that had attached itself to the container ... I took some change to move along. Left an orange smiley bouncy ball. Signed log.TFTC ...
TFTC - found with andysbs68 on our way home from K Ranch team sorting competition:)
Even with muggles about in the residence across the road, still able to make the find easily enough
Feeling so dumb right now. I found this geocache last time ( 2 years ago) and I couldn't find it this time. Will try again later
30,030. Found during an invasion of the 'Bargo up to Penrith' region on the Canberra Day long weekend with a great bunch of Cachers.
With the Canberra Day long weekend upon us, a number of Canberra region Cachers performed an invasion of the Bargo up to Penrith area. Canberra Day Invasion 2023 (signed as CDI23) consisted of minniek, Joolay, Kittykatch, isopeda, barb2e, albida33, smittengranny, Nibbletricecakes, GLISS!, Contesta, EverestHigh and myself. After half the group did a nearby 2001 Multi, we all caught up and hit the trail for many many caches. This was the next CDI23 find. Nice little mini-series and a quick find at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache as found, then headed off to the next one on the list.
Thanks Dragons2010 !!

Canberra Day long weekend.... what's better than going away and caching with friends.
We had quite a group come up for one, two, three, or four days: barb2e, Nibbletricecakes, Kittykatch, albida33, fitzy_1965, Joolay, MinnieK, Contesta and Smittengranny and also EverestHigh, who caught up with us after the first few caches on the day.
We signed as CDI23 (Canberra Day Invasion 2023)
It was nice to explore a region I had only sped through before.

Fitzy_1965 & I headed to the Picton region today with a bunch of friends from Canberra for our Canberra Day long weekend invasion (the joys of living in NSW but working in ACT for me). All caches were signed as CDI23.
We had a fun day finding, trads, puzzles & multis and a few AL's for good measure. We ended up at dinner at a great Thai restaurant after the event in Picton itself.

With a long weekend in Canberra who can resist getting away! Joined a great bunch on friends to tackle a bit of the Picton area. The day included a big investment of time in an oldie (lots of fun) and then lots of caching in the region. A really delightful day trip with barb2e, Kittykatch, isopeda, albida33, fitzy_1965, Minniek, joolay, Smittengranny, contesta, EverestHigh and GLISS! Signed most of the caches as CDI - for Canberra Day Invasion. Thanks to all the cache owners for the fun!
Picton & Penrith Canberra Day weekend Invasion. Day 2. Today the trip got underway with the team caching. I sat out the walk to 'More', which I had done many years ago and joined up after a late morning break. The group was made up of Fitzy_1965, MinnieK, Joolay, Kitty Katch, Barb2e, Isopeda, Smitten Granny, Contesta, Gliss! and Nibletricecakes. EverestHigh joined a little later on. We had a huge list of caches to do and we got underway on a warming day. As things looked to be running out of time we changed to the end of the list to get to the Dam for a virtual and then cached out way back to Picton to get to the event and a chance to meet some locals and others caching in the area today. Dinner was a great local Picton Thai restaurant followed by finishing Lab caches before I headed back to Bargo for the night.
As we headed back to Picton we stopped for as many roadside caches as we could, pleas a bit of a lap of the two small towns we passed through.
Thanks for the cache Dragons2010

Headed west for some caching fun with ilook4geo and found a variety of hides by several different cache owners. There were no problems with today's selection and all logs were signed. A nice easy find was made here. Thanks for this cache go to Dragons2010.
Did a selection of caches with goingplaces2, but skipped some where the grass was too long and some where there were muggles in close range. Enjoyed the ones we found and added our names to the log. This one was a successful find. TFTC.
A good reason to stop on our way home from Silverdale.
Thanks for the cache Dragons2010.

Riding past (well, walking, I’m so unfit I couldn’t quite make it up the hill) to do a check on my local caches so I stopped off here too. All fine, camo will need a refresh one day, but not today.
Quick easy find , lovely views from here . Interesting hide , the plastic bag need replacing , thought I had spare one but afraid not. Golden paper clip TFTC.
Wow, I got a fright at this one, saw the cache straight away and met it's guardian!
took a bit (it was my first time geocaching) but it was fun! good spot to hide it
Find #490 on streak day #163.
Enjoying the day in the area visiting family. While there I decided to rope in my sister in law for her very first caching experience while having a stroll about. I noticed that maintence had been done since the last time that I came through, and had to DNF this one. So today was my chance to redeem by previous DNF, and quickly I have to say. I did let her search a bit but the concept is still new to her. Luckily, it was exactly where I had searched previously. So glad, this was a quick and easy find, and I completed signing duties under the tree then replaced. Jury is out on a potential new cacher. TFTC Dragons2010!

Finally catching up on my logs! I'd come by here before with Littl3Vix but we had been unsuccessful on our night raid. I was back again to give it another go, and was very happy to have a nice quick easy find today. Thank you for the cache!

Nice historical spot and good views as well .
Many thanks for the cache hide.

Out for a day of caching with Geofam. on a nice sunny Sunday. Nice quick easy park a grab. easy to spot when you look at it. Still took us a minute to find though lol. TFTC.
Thought we’d take a Sunday drive to The Oaks. Number 5 find for the day with lots of muggles around. Found with Gundrills, KnightJR and Panda_Girl65 (signed G, K, M & P). TFTC
A check of the site found geocache was missing. A new cache and log added .Good to go
In the area with Mizcupcake tonight trying to lock down a couple of caches. This is the first and only DNF for the night, it is sad to have to log. We parked the geomobile, got to gz and started our search. Checking systematically from gz down in opposite directions and then swapping, we didn’t come up with anything. CO may need to go and check as it has been a couple of months since the last find, and recent maintenance on the grounds has me wondering if it has been muggled as the difficulty isn’t high at all.
Enjoyed the history on this one - my in laws live just around the corner and found it interesting also. Tftc!
Moved to the oaks for a few months and wanted explore the town. Quick find, tftc!
Having found all of my caches the team moved on to another local quick find. I've always found it difficult giving hints while I'm watching a search, thankfully they weren't needed here.
