Family geocaching while trick or treating ??????? Halloween was lots of fun this year ??????? No luck I think it is missing
Took advantage of the clear skies and sunshine to hit the pavements and explore my new local area.
It easy to see how high the water rose around here but the cache is safe and the “write in the rain” paper worked a treat.

Christmas Caching on the way down to my parents’ found by the Geogirlfriend; TFTC!
With a permit to visit our Father In Law today, he wanted to get out of the house and stretch his legs. A great opportunity to find a cache or two, Wicket's first caching experience!

Found this cache while out geocaching near the Moss Vale, NSW area. The cache was in good condition unless stated otherwise. Thanks for the cache and the adventure.
Here is a little information about me. I have been geocaching since March 2015. At the time of finding this cache, I have over 8550 finds plus 1120 hides. I am the creator of the “Duck Dip” Lab Cache that won 2nd Place for the Australian Capital Territory in the State Vs State - Battle of the Lab Caches at the OzGeoMuster - The Gong Mega (GC7N7ZC) 2019 in Wollongong, Australia. It was my love of Geocaching that helped me find my lovely Wife. I have dedicated a Geocache to her that explains how Geocaching brought us together. That Cache is The Blueiris of Tidbinbilla by DARKSIDEDAN. | GC80WHA | Australian Capital Territory, Australia.
Currently I have over 10,000 Pathtags in my Collection plus over 500 Etagz. My collection includes over 300 JMC Pathtags and 180 Charlie Harper Pathtags. I love to trade pathtags with people at events or via post within Australia only. I currently have four Personal Pathtags 45762 / 46950 / 47696 / 47987 with another three in the works. Note: I do not trade overseas (Australia Only) so please do not ask. Also I do not log my Pathtags on Pathtags.com to keep what I have in my collection private. If you are selling your Pathtags or want to swap Pathtags send me a message. As a bonus to reading this very long log, please feel free to discover my Virtual Trackable AR6QTT. Yes this is my Personal Virtual Trackable and I give permission for you to discover it. Please feel free to share my Virtual Trackable with every geocacher you know.
I have included one of the Geocaching poems that I have written. I hope that anyone reading it likes it.
Geocache Poem
by DARKSIDEDAN
My endless search goes on and on
Looking for treasures of every kind
Always chasing just one more find
Putting past DNF’s out of my mind
I step out into the world outside,
Seeking what is hidden from me
What size, shape or form will it be?
Only time will tell, I can’t wait to see
Will I find my prize at the end?
I will search in the failing light and cold
Filling with despair having looked everywhere
Where is this thing that gives my life pleasure?
Looking all around from every angle
I read the logs and check the hint
I curse out loud as I walk in circles
screaming the bloody thing it not there
As time flies by and I fail to see,
Never once stopping to realize
It always been there before my eyes
No need for sorrow, there’s the Geocache.
.................................................................................................................................................................
***** I am currently writing very detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC called "The Author". This Badge challenges geocachers to write logs with an average one hundred words or more in each log. As of the May 2021 my average is 160 words per log, which seems close to the 200 words per log target. However given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 200 words for a long period of time to get my average up. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After more than 8000 caches (which includes all cache finds up and including today I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task very soon. Progress has been better than anticipated.

**This Cache:**
One of the easiest "Tree Bisons" to spot!
Thanks
**Today:**
A trip to the Southern Highlands today with DSD to clean up some of the more "Park and Grab" style caches, rather than being super focused like I usually am! We also managed to sneak in some of the solved puzzles on my list too which were on my to-do list and happened to be along the routes we were taking!
All up a fairly productive day, with 45 finds over a 5 hour period excluding the driving time to/from Canberra. We had a few DNF's and a LOTTT of Did Not Attempts, unfortunately there seems to be a lot of missing caches around the place.
Thanks to all the CO's!

Quick find spotted it on approach, took a bit to extract the log but we managed to get it out eventually, cheers
Found it thanks. My little brother found it. It is obvious when tree leaves fall.
I was taking a break from driving and having a walk to stretch the legs. Close to GZ and I could clearly see the cache. Thankfully there were no muggles nearby while I retrieved it and signed the log. A couple of yellow tailed black cockatoos flew overhead on my return to the car. Quite a few people were out on the track, walking dogs, jogging, cycling and going to school. TFTC.
Found while watching Mr & Mrs Duck with their 14 fluffy ducklets; we wondered about the life expectancy of the latter!
Found on our walk into town.
Thanks to widge76 for the cache.

Found with Gronk and Juno. Perfect day for a walk. Quiet easy to find before spring has sprung.
Found with sjg66 on our Highlands caching weekend. Thanks to all the CO's who maintain these caches, we had a great time.
Someone has cross threaded the lid onto the main container. Took me sometime to get it to go on the right way, but managed in the end. However, it is now very tight and some cachers may struggle to un screw it...
Streak Week - Day 6
Thought I'd celebrate the end of the week by finding the remaining Cherry Tree Walk caches.
Nice easy finds along this series. Thanks For The Caches Widge!
