On a geoventure today with Mizcupcake and came over to this one to grab a quick find. I was left to the searching to begin with as Mizcupcake had already found this one previously. After some time I was unable to find anything and Mizcupcake joined in. We both came up empty handed after a good amount of time. I think that this one may have been muggled. On another note, a decorated bower bird nest nearby was amazing.

A little detour on the way home from a morning run. GPS was pretty jumpy but got there in the end. Was nice to see evidence of a bower bird in the shrubs. Took a little time reading some of the headstones in the very old cemetery. Thanks for showing me this place.

The day started with an early morning event in Mittagong.
Happy Uke mentioned that she was heading up to Camden today to grab some caches and as I had no plans for the day, I asked if she would like some company.
So we headed off with Uke driving and me navigating targeting caches that would help us with the "Mystery at the Museum" event.
All up we found around 31 caches. All are signed "HUMS" as either HUSM or SMHU just didn't cut it.....LOL
Thanks to the CO's for putting these out and apologies for the generic logs.
 
12-Jul-19
Attempting to complete the Mystery at the Museum promotion in one day.

I didn't notice how old this cache was until I was looking at the details at GZ. A bit thorny, but we managed. I etched my name into the logbook. TFTC

OCW Oldmorty in the Camden area on a stunning autumn day. Came at this from below and easily spied the container. Had to wait out a few people searching the cemetery nearby. TFTC!

Today I teamed up again with morty8888 for another day of caching this time around the Camden area, we had a very enjoyable and adventurous day visiting the cache locations. Initially thought we were on the wrong side of the fence but as it turned out either side is OK. Morty8888 did the tree parting to grab the cache. TFTC

A nice sized cache in a nice location
Today I teamed up again with 154crows for another epic day of caching this time around the Picton/Camden area,we had a very enjoyable and adventurous day visiting the cache locations, finding a heap of hides but also a few DNFs along the way but we finished up a great day out finding more then expected so that was a bonus and left with plenty of funny and some odd caching stories to talk about.

Finalf29 and I had such an enjoyable time yesterday, we decided to come back and raid Camden some more today. We did a lot more walking and had two DNF's, but still came up with fifteen for the arvo.

This was our twelfth for the day. The church bells were rung while we were looking and they made Finalf29 jump. This is an amazing old cemetery... found Platt's grave, but he has a decided lean on him. Found a spot in the fence to get through and soon had the cache. Thanks
 
07-Oct-17
Out and about with Happy Uke again today. We were out to help clear the world of some nogood dirty caches that had worn out their welcome.

We had not been caching for a while so we decided to head out towards Picton and Camden.

Thanks.

Not sure about the name but a find in the rain is always good. Then the bower bird (Satin) came in for a very close look. Nice.

Knowing this was a small (probably more a regular), was the only thing that kept me persisting and subjecting myself to spikey scratches as I wandered around in circles with a very unsettled arrow. Even when container was finally spotted from the side mentioned in the hint but technically accessible from either, co-ords still didn’t agree.

Found with O319 on our weekend in the area. TFTC! Smile

What does cache name mean?
 
16-Mar-17
13033. Found during a drive heading home after a work week in Penrith.

I was in the area grabbing some other caches when this one appeared on my GPS. I was so close I couldn't resist a Church/Cemetery cache. A quick find - very nice ! Signed the log, returned the cache, and it was off home.

Thanks Daaave !!

TNLN - TFTC !!
