G'DayI'm sorry, but your recent move has brought your cache too close to a Physical Waypoint of [GC51Y9J: #6](http://coord.info/GC51Y9J) and will need to be moved. Please read the following item on [Cache Saturation](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachesaturation)I've disabled this listing for the time being, could you please move it to a new location that fits within the saturation guidelines. Once that is done you may enable the cache.Rgds,Matt - Ministro.
Coordinates changed from:S 33 43.083 E 151 5.498Coordinates changed to:S 33 43.082 E 151 5.505Distance from original: 36.1 feet or 11.0 meters.The previous location was too obvious to passing scouts. I have moved it about a metre away in a more secure spot. The clue remains the same
The cache has been cleaned, dried with logbook and pencil replaced. It is now back in action! Sorry about the delay.
** Needs maintenace: we walked past GZ to tape frogs and saw the cache on the ground, lid off and contents everywhere. Replaced everything and rehid, but there was no log.
Finally found it about 10m out. No scouts about today. Sorry for the loss of your pet.
#2185Needing to find a cache for Blue Switch day I search this one out. Nice and easy. TFTC
Reperio 19:38Day 5 of our Newcastle geocaching escapade, and Master Vitruvius and I headed towards the Belmont and Swansea areas before making our way slowly towards Sydney. There appeared to be a lot of muggles around tonight, with many cars parked and younger people coming and going. A short walk and good coords soon had the cache in hand.

A relatively easy find this morning after returning from visiting the nearby Normo Falls.TFTC
That took longer than it should have. The GPS had me wandering on the other side of the driveway, eventually found it.
The GPS was bouncing around everywhere.Eventually we found it.We signed the log.We took nothing and nothing.Thanks for this cache

Today is the day of our 7000th find, hopefully. We’re grabbing whatever we can solve and find around Turramurra/Hornsby before meeting Mighty Minions, barefootjeff and GeoIan down at Berowra Waters for some kayaking!
Quick find here, all in pristine condition. TNLN SL

We were coming down to Berowra today for some kayaking, and figured a good kayaking trip was a fine way to ring up a milestone, so diverted further down into Sydney to pre-position ourself for our 7000th find on the water.
We were on a schedule, so stopped for some roadside hides on our way up to Berowra.
I had a Golden Retriever too - she was bought as a birthday present when I was 9 years old, we had her until I was 22 I think, great old girl Goldie was....

This was a lovely spot to commemorate another dog while walking our own, an adventurous but sensitive rescue greyhound. The kids quite liked finding it and swapping treasures. Thank you!
Found with Shaneo58, doing some around the Normanhurst Areas, Getting away from Lake Macquarie come down by train, on this fine winter day. GPS took a while to settle down, so took a bit of time to find.
Signed log and Cache replaced as found.
**Thanks For The Cache** bainsworld.

It took a while to hone in on this. Phone had me no where near GZ. Finally found something that was in character with the theme. TFTC Bainsworld.
Not quite where the pointer said but further down the path I hit pay dirt. Have walked past here many times but haven't cached in years so getting back into it. Thanks!
Found it! And the travel bug!! Looking forward to re-homing it. Hugs for Angel Chloe TFTC
I've been here before but couldn't find the cache today I had more luck and found the cache within a couple of minutes.

Nice easy find. The clue is very instructive. When things are overgrown, just get low
Great introduction for my grandchildren H and T into the world of geocaching . Thank you for the perfect hint !
Forgot to log this on Father's Day when it was found and signed. I used to got Venturers here. Fascinating to see the constructed wetland. Great hiding spot. TFTC.
Found by the GKs whilst on a bike ride. Took the dogs back to visit. Tftc - we haven’t done a clean up of the local area recently. Great start on International Geocaching day!
Out for hunting with geodog and Bakrtrak and found this one in the wilderness.
Thanks bainsworld
Thanks bainsworld
Love the pic. Similar to a couple of earlier 4-legged mates. Found with MummyPenny. Thanks bainsworld.
Today I headed out to Dural for the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at the Quarry Road HQ site (VK2WI) then, after a fun filled morning of HAM radio junk scrounging and lots of friendly chit chat, I headed off to find some caches on my homeward journey. Took a drive along Kenthurst Road to collect some of the Kenthurst Geotrail series, then stopped off for a few Traditional caches at Normanhurst & Wahroonga. This was the 10th of 12 finds for the day.
After grabbing some caches out at Kenthurst I was now heading towards home, and this was my next cache stop, and it was a quick find on arrival at GZ. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. It's a nice tribute to your much loved doggy. TFTC bainsworld.

What a wonderful stroll and adventure we've had today, as I now log our finds, firstly heading north along Larool Cr and then back along Waitara Cr, all the while rock-hoping and taking in every wondrous Fungi, and Waterfall.

I love the idea of dedicating caches to your dogs, especially in an area they often walked or played in. Dogs are such great family members, always loving and so perceptive.
I have a small series of 4 caches dedicated to my dogs. Dog 1 = before Geocaching was invented, Dog 2 = my companion for 95% of my first 2000 finds until he became to old for the walks, Dog 3 = my current Geodog and Dog 4 is blind so cannot go everywhere but does enjoy the walks he can do.
So I did want to come and find your cache.
Today after comp tennis finished early I headed further north than my usual route and found your cache.
A wonderful way to remember cherished Chloe. Favourtie point from me and my geodogs.

I needed a cache find for the Blue Switch Day souvenir and as I was in the area, this one seemed like a good candidate. I parked in the cul de sac and opened the app. Good, nice and close. I followed the arrow and soon found the cache near that big stick. Log was signed and I grabbed the TB to move along.
I'm so sorry to hear about Chloe. She looks so adorable in the photo. I bet she had a great life with your family and you all have great memories of your time together.
Thanks for this tribute cache to Chloe.

Plenty of parking here on a quiet day. We walked to GZ for the find then walked on to the ponds in front of the hall as MrsFish is currently very keen on frogs, and found hundreds of tadpoles there, some quite large. According to FrogID they could have been any one of 3 species found here. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here, we will return one night when the frogs are hopefully calling.
A break in the rain allowed us a few moments to go caching. Quick find with our own geoPet. Signed log and left traceable. TFTC
Returned a couple of hours after my write note. Quick find and probably could have gone for it but unsure about waking suspicion from the pair of gents, tradie and homeowner having drinks at that time in the culdesac
Walked to within 40m , then noticed 2 guys with beers in their hands opposite the GZ site in the driveway, shall return

After finishing my dance class up the road I felt like pizza for dinner and off I drove to Devoured (who are normally closed by the time I remember what days they're open - it's a vicious cycle)
Unfortunately they're understaffed tonight and told me it would take an hour for my pizza, I said that would be okay and I'd come back in an hour. Now onto the cache, it was a 12 minute walk or a 2 minute drive, I did have the time to kill but class was hard, so off I zipped in the car. As fate would have it I arrived, stopped to check the distance on my phone, and moments later someone says "are you looking for the We Love Our Pets geocache?"
I got to have a nice chat with the CO who lives nearby, we said our goodbyes and then the cache was in the first spot I looked.
Thank you for placing and giving me something to do while I wait for my pizza
Please enjoy the view from the nearby oval of the clouds tonight

We really haven't got back into caching yet but this new one encouraged us out. Thanks bainsworld.
Picked up on our way home from Hornsby. After making the find, we enjoyed a stroll to the falls, which were running well after recent rains.
Good one, thanks bainsworld.

Well, it's a long time since I found a **bainsworld** cache. Welcome back!
Parked in the designated area for such things and made my way to GZ.
My caching instincts suggested one spot, but the iPhone was pointing a bit away from there. Checked where the needle pointed but decided the logical was the way to go.
And there it is - completely uncovered.
Completed signing duties and replaced with more camo. Then time to head home.

Companions: None
Muggles: None
Weather: Pleasant spring morning
Cache condition: Good
After dropping the kids off at school I drove down to this park, familiar from jogs and caches. It didn't take too long to find GZ given the hint (although my phone was still showing 8-10m at that point) - TNLNSL, thanks for the cache, and sharing the memory of your beloved dog; we've had many dogs and cats over the years so can definitely share how much of a part of your life they become.

Last find for the day. An easy find. Just had to wait for two ladies with their dogs to pass before retrieving the cache. With the log signed & the cache replaced, it was then time to head home for dinner TNLN TFTC

I love my own pet, Sookie. She is a 9 year old Schnautzer that we brought over from Europe when we moved to Australia.
The cache was quickly found, but a few meters further toward the scout hall.

FTF at 1645. More to come.
Saw this come up and being only 1.6km straight line from home figured I would be in with a chance despite all the other FTF chasers in the area. So a nice quick find 15 minutes after publishing. The cache was a few metres closer to the scout hall than the iPhone wanted me initially but it still didn't take much looking and certainly within the margin of error.
And yes Paul I suspect given the number of environment stickers on the back of the car I saw driving in I think we must have crossed paths! Thanks bainsworld for the hide.
