Disabling due to COVID19. Geocaching is not an essential activity and I feel that to protect the caching and muggle community/s we should put a hold on our caching activities for the time being.

Finally got a chance to have a look around again. Found it this time alot easier to look when it's not raining. Had a camera crew muggle team around while looking so was extra stealth.
Gotcha this time. I'm new to Geocaching and this one is close to home, I just had to find it. Am learning that a GPS is not perfect and it's good to read the comments. A slight change of search position and bingo. (Found yesterday, forgot to log).
Woo hoo. It had us stumped yesterday but it's very close to home and we weren't going to be beaten. Thanks to a log photo I was able to hone the position more accurately. There is a rubber and a log, no pencil.
Lovely Park. So many potential hiding spots. This game is harder than I expected.
We finally got back here this afternoon for another hunt, and luckily muggle free. We picked up a hint at an event which helped uncover this well hidden cache, thanks.
I'm sure I looked for this one for a while previously and got muggled away. Anyway, this time despite my trepidation and searching by torchlight I made a very quick find, in a place I surely must have checked last time. As I was signing the log the nearby sprinklers sputtered into action which gave me quite a fright until I worked out what the loud hissing noise was! Nice little park in suburbia here. TFTC!
Nice little park and no one around today, on this windy day, so was able to make a quick find TFTC
All was quiet when we got to this lovely park. It took us a few minutes to locate this well hidden cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Our timing was good because as we were about to leave a number of children arrived to play on the good range of equipment. Thanks 007mushu for the cache.
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.
Got lucky here. TFTC.

#5936 (4 of 5 today)
After a few finds to bolster my calendar finds on Pi Day. But the weather report for today is a real concern. But the morning should still be OK...
So after dropping Geoson #2 at the station I headed towards Mount Annan for the day’s plunder.
Called it at five as the rain was starting, and I wanted to be home before anything nasty hit. And I see this area was one of those that was hit. Hope everyone local had no problems.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
A few spots of rain when I arrived here. But at least it should keep the muggles away.
This one had me checking so many spots. Then went for the hint. OK...
I was vacillating between two areas, when suddenly I noticed something. I wonder...
Gotcha!
Signed and replaced.
That really shouldn’t have taken as long as it did.
Looking at the sky, I think one more should do it.

Second attempt here after first try failed. Got some advice from a PAF who confirmed where arrow had taken me was about 5m out and that the provided clue was a little cryptic. Much quicker find today after digging through a lot of leaf litter. Replaced a little more gently but still well hidden.
Checked on cache today to find it was missing. It is now replaced. There was a lovely frog next to the cache. Happy Caching
This was our last traditional cache of the day. The WaywardWoman was actually faster than me here. I wanted to put my sunglasses in my bag and she had the cache found before I had them away. Then the sun bothered me again so I put them back on, which is why I am wearing them in the photo of me in the boat. I spotted the boat and wanted a photo for my son. [Magnolia](https://youtu.be/zJzLc8Cj-AY) is the name of a song by one of his favourite bands, Gang of Youths. Thanks
#4675- After lunch at Camden, bikerbuddy and I were starting to make our way home. surprisingly, we were near here the other day and hadn't noticed this cache. We made our way across the basin, remarking how this would be a great area for ball games for kids.
Found the cache immediately, though I can see how some may have a bit of trouble with it. Then bikerbuddy, the biggest kid of all sometimes, played in the nearby boat with our youngest son's favourite song title. Thanks

Found finally, took us over an hour before asking for some help from another geocacher. Thanks wayward woman for the help
Our 2nd find after a nearby kids party. Found in the dark but easier than I thought. Beautiful place for the kids to play. Kids enjoyed a play in the dark. TFTC
Found as the sun was setting, took a fair bit of looking, but the search ended happily.
Found yesterday while out exploring with the kids. Actually my daughter spotted the cleverly camouflaged container while we were looking a bit further away. Nice little nearby park. TFTC
Find number 4124.
A nice quick find on a lovely winters afternoon. Some muggle kids could be heard playing nearby but we where out of sight at GZ
Thanks 007mushu for placing this cache.

Took the two young kids and the misses and looked for about half an hour. Must blend in well. We will be back again
2nd visit here. First time around we were looking for something bigger. Knowing this was actually a micro, we came with a different outlook this time and found it after about 10 mins. GPS wanted us on the wrong side of the bridge but we got there in the end. That's some great camo, really blends in to the surroundings. TFTC and for bringing us to the serene little park.
Another detour on the way to bigger and better adventures. What a lovely park and thankfully quiet till after I signed the log. Just!?!

Needed some exercise. What to do? Cycle to this cache, only about 7km from home. Dan pulled up and parked his bike. He had a bit of a walk around and scratched his head. Went back to his bike and found that he had parked right next to the cache. Bewdy Newc. TFTC
Flound during a short break between lunch and work.
I was surprised that the park was empty during the school holidays.
Thanks for the cache.
P.s. that's a micro!

Thought I was loosing my touch, spent 45 mins looking as Coords jumped about,finally a well hidden cache,,with nice cammo on container making hard to see,tftc
Found today with Little Cricket. Muggles were in the nearby park but they soon moved on allowing us to make the move and find the cache. Nice park here. Great hide and camo. TFTC
Sitting at indoor cricket training and got alert about new cache and hour and a half later it still wasn't logged as found so we thought we would go give it a try and see. Geo kid navigated us to the far side of the park so we took the scenic walk. This park we have played at before and I took some nice photos of my kids here. At GZ when we arrived there was muggles in the park but with it being so dark they had no idea what I was doing and geokids ran to play adding to the noise. TFTC and our second ever FTF
