I was with the CO when this series was put out. Now I have my own GCA account I have been given permission to log them.

I always enjoyed chemistry at school - just like my Dad !

Out with Joolay again today - the last day of her holidays and we were determined to make the most of the day. Goal? 20 more GCA caches to add more points to the current game. We succeeded in our goal and this was #9. Picked up the required information. TFTC Fitzy_1965 SL

Thanks

I haven't been up this road in a long time. Quick find, clue gathered and cache in good condition. The next cache in the series has a number of DNFs - I would like to finish off the series so will see if the CO has plans to replace the cache. Thanks again

A very quick find while heading home after a nearby event, noted the clue to use in the future.

A great second day of caching in the ACT and Queanbeyan. Today not so much numbers, but lots of fun. After a few local caches in Queanbeyan it was of into the beautiful Molonglo george and then to the event in Queanbeyan before doing the long drive home.

#2 today for the NSW team.

Leaving the area this morning on our way to Alexandra and took the slight detour to find this one also so that I had a GCA find to keep my GCA find streak going. Never been in a position before to do this so why miss it. Easy quick find. TFTC Fitzy_1965

After spending a short amount of time this afternoon tying off some loose ends we headed out towards the Kowen Forest hoping to fine the next installment of the elements series.

The traffic was quite thick this afternoon and whizzed by as we looked for this cache. The cache was located in a familiar hide and we found the container and its contents to be in good condition. We recorded the information we needed for the finàl in this set. We then but everything bach as found.

We both have sodium stories but perhaps one of favorites comes from our year 12 class's presentation to the some of the primary school students during science week. One enthusiastic demonstrator was talking about the properties of metals and cut off a marble size piece of sodium which he then proceeded to drop into a trough of water. With a fizz and a flash and a burst of smoke and flame the sodium caught fire, became airbourne, and landed on the carpet where the burning continued until it was extinguished. As the sodium took off the student said 'Oh sh....ivers Sue I think that piece was a little big.'

Thanks for this cache Fitzy and for a chance to recall some of our sodium experiences.

Grabbed this one heading into work today - under the ever watchful eye of the CO (!!) - to keep my GCA streak going.

Nice and simple drive-by find - love it ! Info noted and I headed off to work.

TFTC !!

#GA1999 - 07:10; After collecting the first in this latest periodic addition to the table, I was back early this morning on my way to Batemans Bay for number two. Made sure I was on the right side of the road today and after waiting for some keen cyclists to pass me by, soon had the cache in hand and another one off the 'to do' list. TFTC fitzy_1965

Not the first visitor today....but the first to log. Stopped by around 1145 on the way to an early start at work. No problems making the find and the last clue was soon in hand. Hopefully get out and bag the mystery sometime tomorrow depending on the exact location.

Thanks fitzy.....another neat little series.
