Description
Perphee the Perforatorsaurus
While never really touching terra firma, my imagined Perphee the Perforatorsaurus (so named because of the rapier-like spines down his lower back and tail) was a gentle herbivore living around the wet marshes in what is today the Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma and Utah areas of North America. A cross between an Apatosaurus and Stegosaurus, Perforatorsaurus feed on the plentiful low lying bushes and shrubs that his subtropical environment provided. A sauropod, Perphee was one of the largest dinosaurs of his genus and loved lumbering about his wet and warm climate foraging for delectable snacks.
The Jurassic Period was nowhere near as scary as the Jurassic Park films would have you believe, but Perphee did have to beware the fearsome Allosauarus - the largest meat eating dinosaur of the Jurassic period - who was very loud, bossy and hungry! Luckily, Perphee was deft in defence, often using his mighty spike adorned tail as a deadly weapon of impalement.
While his habitat no longer exists, Perphee is eager to, once again, find warmer and greener climes. He yearns for a big, blue sky, warmth on his back and a lush forest floor under foot. Millions of years have transformed his old home into the American Wild West, and truth be told, Perphee would not recognize it, but, no matter the changes, Perphee knows that home is home is home.
Take Perphee home!

Logs
I'm not sure where they'll all end up. I've got a few Kms to travel this week, so we'll see.
This one is still at the listed coords.
Day #1: I finished work at 4pm and headed over to Wagga for the only GIFF event in NSW. Apart from the CO, I was the first to arrive at the event. It was great to finally attend a Geocaching after many months without them. All talk Geo was had by all until we were told that dinner was ready. Soon after, the popcorn was ready and the movies were on. Congratulations to all the GIFF finalists and they were all a great watch. Also, Congratulations to BMG for receiving the FTF on the event. Then it was time to head home and get ready to head to Canberra for the next few days.
Day #2: I was nearly late to my own event. O’well… It was still fun with the small group of us that turned up. We also discovered many Moveable caches before heading off to today’s main goal. This happened to be finding the ‘A’ part of the GA geo-art series as well as the lone GC caches around the area which I hadn’t found as I pasted by them. I wasn’t alone as AKM came for the walk as well. After finding all but the last two we headed our separate ways as it started raining heavier. Hopefully, it won’t be raining tomorrow so the event goes ahead but well will need to see. Also pizza for dinner tonight.
TB visit on all found caches. I would like to thank all CO's of the caches I found and for allowing them to bring me and the rest of the caching community enjoyment.
Thanks for the cache caughtatwork.
Thanks

We found some movables and some trigs - the trigs will allow a few shots in the battleship game.

I ran into Whitewebbs this afternoon at the local park who had a bag of moveables and this was one of them.
Lovely to meet up with everyone and find these moveables.

You presence had been recorded and logged, and it was left for someone else to move it along.
Heading south towards St Arnauds with geovan in tow we stopped to collect this moveable.

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath.
A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache.
Thanks to all the CO's for the caches...
taken to move along
Thanks
