Logs
Had a couple of days off and decided to take a drive north and grab a few caches. Stopped off to look at a Light Horse Brigade Campsite and continued on up to Two Rocks. Had a look around and grabbed a couple of other caches and then stopped for a to grab a cache out on the sea wall. once back to the car i grabbed a coffee and food at the village and headed off to Guilderton. I stopped off at Guilderton and had a short wander at the lookout to grab another cache and then grabbed some nearby caches around the town. Was very quiet here. So after a drive around i trekked through to Gin Gin and spent some time in the beautiful park in the cool shade watching the waterwheel go round while having lunch. From here i headed to Bindoon for a quick stop and then onto Avon Valley National Park.
Green Machine is resting in the bush with some other friends as well to keep him company

Having only had 6 days off since Christmas I had a 2-day break for a change and decided to hit the road and log some caches, collect some moveables and see some sights. I headed off early and the journey took me to Greenmount, Darlington, Wundowie to try and find my moveable there and on to Northam for a quick break.
I headed on towards Goomalling but ended up making a detour to Malabine back to Jenapullin to grab a gc cache which had me intrigued. I then headed across to Jennacubbine which has an amazing tavern, CWA and go kart track out in the middle of nowhere in the Wheatbelt.
From there I continued up through Goomalling and up to Konnongorring for a quick stop. Off into Wongan Hills to grab some caches before heading out to Mt Brown lookout. What an amazing view from there and grabbed some caches nearby as well.
From Mt Brown I travelled across to the Gt Northern Highway and headed down to New Norcia which now has a bypass around it, so it was very quiet there. I could get out of the car and wander along the road and not one car came past amazing. From New Norcia headed on down to Bindoon to grab some caches and then eventually made my way back home.
So I ended up out for 10hrs and lots of km’s and a great day was had all round with lots of caches in tow and lots logged as well.
I found this cache hiding in the bush with some friends and he glad to see me and some new friends waiting in the car. on of another journey. Thanks for the cache daryllm123

Dropped off when we picked up some other moveables caches.
Found this cache when helping Gwiber and Chwiliwr remove it from his car after his trip out east with the better half collecting them all. Thanks for the cache.

The better half and I went out for a drive in the country picking up some traditional caches and a whole load of moveable ones. The sealed roads that we went on were obviously OK but according to the better half not the gravel and 4wd ones which only confirmed her aversion to going down them in any vehicle.
Picked up this one on the worst part of the 4wd part of the trip. At one stage just before arriving at this GZ the better half thought we were going to tip over and then immediately after on the next bit she thought we were going to get stuck as the ruts were huge and unavoidable but I managed to get over them after a bit of back and forth.

Time to catch up and log all the moves made for the large number of moveable caches that we have accumulated over the last months.
On the trip out into the Wandoo forrest area with the better half doing some maintenance of my caches after a fire and we dropped off a number of moveable caches along the way.

After doing the new caches to the north Chwiliwr and I came south to pick up Gwiber and Gwawr to do some caching around the Rockingham area.
Somehow we missed seeing this cache on the list when we were at the other cache nearby but noticed it whilst at the cache further south so came back up here to pick up this moveable.

The Green machine has moved closer to the big smoke. 
I spotted this one while in the area finishing a GC multi. 
I had an RDO today and planned a bit of a day trip that took me out through Dwellingup and down as far as Yarloop before heading back for home! I had a great day out and it was fun exploring new places. TFTC

According to Wikipedia...
Whiteman Park is a 4,000-hectare (9,900-acre; 15 sq mi) bushland area located 22km north of Perth, Western Australia. The park is in the suburb of Whiteman, in the Swan Valley in the upper reaches of the Swan River. It encompasses the source of Bennett Brook - an important nyoongar location, and source of mythology of the Wagyl and stories about aboriginal occupancy of the area. Whiteman Park is known for its biodiversity, including over 450 endemic plants and more than 120 vertebrate animals (some of which are rare and endangered). Over 17% of Western Australian bird species occur in Whiteman Park, including migratory birds attracted to the habitat provided by Bennett Brook and associated wetlands including Grogan's Swamp, a Conservation Category Wetland. The state government purchased the land from a variety of private owners in 1978, to protect the underlying aquifer as a drinking water source for Perth. The major owner was Lew Whiteman (1903–1994), after whom the park is named.
Whiteman Park includes bushwalking trails, bike paths, sports facilities and playgrounds. The park is also host to heritage transport groups and their collections: The Perth Electric Tramway Society runs a 4km electric tram journey around the park, running a tram that used to be in service on the Fremantle network. Caversham Wildlife Park; Bennett Brook Railway; The Tractor Museum of Western Australia; The Western Australian Motor Museum; Bus Preservation Society of Western Australia; and Revolutions Transport Museum.

Dropped of while down the beach for the weekend. The weather is awful but it's probably the only chance I'll get. Thanks for the car.
Found this one while out this way today at 09:15 sharing the same spot as a couple of other moveables. Although I took one of the moveables to try and dry out its logsheet, I left this one and GA5050 where I found them for others to visit.
Two for the price of one folks.

Dropped off at GCA BINGO PARTY Already taken
Picked all these ones up even tho we have had them before as there is a Council Festival & Fireworks for Australia day and I didnt want them to be accidently found in the pre-festival council clean up.
Finally dropped off after finding no good place in town.
This cache was languishing for a while, so while we were out picking some new toys today, GabGab and I dropped past to pick it up. I have picked this cache up from where GabGab dropped it and hope to get it out and about into the city tomorrow. Thanks for this cute little bug cache.

Moved again this little car must be doing circle work, ready to go again
Have moved on to a larger area. Don't think it will be here for long
Had fun getting this - after finding my way in to the new estate it was right under the nose of 2 workmen so I stopped my car, made a "phonecall" while subtly searching and once located I grabbed and got out of there! Thanks for the fun!!
Dropped this one when we picked up 79... not 79 caches but Cache Number 79 lol!!
Dropped him off with a few new friends. Thanks again DaryllM
Was in the area and with a bit of spare time at hand, I decided to come find this Bingo and the nearby multi. Found him easily, thankfully he wasn't already gone! Thanks Daryllm
