Description
This is my first Geocache hide, so i thought i would start with a simple park where all the family can enjoy them selves, be it a BBQ, to the kids playing on the playground, to fishing in the man made pond.
i got the idea for this cache off of the internet.
Please Enjoy this Wonderful area while your here.
Congratulations 2y's Tassies on the first to find.

Today Swampy and I continued our plundering of caches between home and the northwest of the state.
On Day 2 of the plunderage, your cache was one of those that we found.
We worked our way around Ulverstone and Penguin finding caches as we went.
Thanks for placing this cache for us to find.

Been up the Dial Rd this morning chasing an elusive GC. Got frustrated, came down for coffees and grabbed this little beauty before going for the Gnomon summit. thanks DEZ055 for a successful find.
Long weekend of caching. after making a wrong assumption we grabbed this one. Trust the GPS lol TFTC
A drive today with Geo Kid O, with dual main purposes, to find enough points to qualify for the highest souvenir and to find a reverse cache to complete a challenge on GCA.
The day was a success with both purposes being achieved. No showers of any note made everything almost perfect. TFTC the cache

Found this cache whilst out and about caching with whitewebbs and gooseandegg. A lovely park that we usually visit when in Penguin.
A quick find here, thanks dez055

I spend a lot of my early 20s in Penguin and we always enjoyed Hiscutt Park. It's still lovely, as is the whole town. Anyway, a quick find with whitewebbs and Tassie Trekkers.
Thanks DEZ055
Thanks DEZ055
Today was the day to cache in Penguin with Tassie Trekkers and gooseandegg and this was one of the caches we found. It has been such a long time since we have all cached together, probably at the OZGM at Cataract Park last July. Cache found and log signed. This is a lovely park. TFTC

After a recent 6 week caching holiday on the 'big island' it was time to get back in to the swing of things again.
Today we headed off to the Burnie area to grab as many GCA caches as possible. This was the first one attempted and a good start to our caching day with a quick find in a muggle free environment.
Thanks.

Hi dez055
A quick "raid" on the NW Coast to look for GAs proved to be a long day
I travelled just short of the 900 km
My total finds cost me 11034 steps; 1825 calories in walking 8.58 km to make them
Never knew this park existed prior to this find
Lovely place and enjoyed my quick walk through it
A quick find and Sainting
TFTC and cheers

My FINDS: GCA 4303; GC 3907; TOT 8211

This morning i did a quick maintenance check and put a piece of straw in the container to aid with getting log out easier and to help with getting it back in.
cache was still in its hiding place and in good condition. Enjoy

A quick find on a day when we needed a find to fill a gap on our DZ calendar. This is a great park and being school holidays there were a few people about but mr sharnie's tribe got the deed done just before a family came along to feed the ducks. TFTC
After a few weekends of working around the house and some dodgy weather, it was great to get out and about again to grab a few caches around the area. After a cool start this morning we thought we wait until around mid morning to head out.
After getting bored at the skate park we decided to duck around the corner to grab this cache. Was a very easy find and blended in well. TFTC

It was pleasant in Hiscutt Park in the early afternoon with the model boat ethusiasts sailing the boat on the lake. Accurate coordinates and a familiar find led to a quick find. Luckily, no one was having a picnic. The cache and contents were in good condition. There being no other entries in the logbook, we will claim {FTF} at 13:30pm Thanks DEZ055 for the cache.
