Nice quick find! TFTC
 
22-Apr-12
Were worried that the big black plastic container in the house's driveway was the cache - no it wasn't!
It's handy to have a child as camouflage - the kids in the playground didn't even glance our way when we were crawling around in the bushes looking for this one. Simple, but effective hide! Took the captain, left a bouncy ball.

Arrived at the GZ and AussieMary was "iffy" about diving in so close to the house.... so using stealth in I went! Had just grabbed the cache when my phone went .... so much for the quiet approach!!! Thanks dalyrere for the hide!!
 
10-Mar-12
Found on a day out with CP. GeoMary aborted, but CP was more game. Wrong number, CP? Or did someone set you up. Perhaps you need a quieter ring tone. TFTC.
 
02-Mar-12

I left a calling card and a couple of animals.

Picked up on our Friday night cache-date. Young muggle on the swing when we first came by. Went away for a couple of nearby finds while the sun was setting. Pulled up again just in time to see him leaving on his bike...must have been bed time. Fairly quick find despite the nearby yappy-dog. TFTC.

11-Nov-11
Reperio at 1005.

This one is certainly close to home, or at least someone's home, but was more perturbed by the dog that was yapping on the other side of the fence. Luckily the cache was fairly exposed, albeit still safe guarded in the area of it's hide, which made for a hasty find.

Gratias dalyrere.

Great find with Sneekypeak, Lil Tish and Geokid. Great hide. Nice little park, kids had a chance for a play and Sneekypeak and myself, kicked the soccer ball around.

On a short stopover in Adelaide before returning home from our holiday in Tasmania.
As we didn't have much time to spare Mr AusTrackers was put off by the previous 2 DNFs but Mrs AusTrackers dived straight in and very quickly had the cache in hand. TFTH
 
01-Apr-11
MIA? Will have a good look / replace if need to. Sad
 
01-Apr-11
Thanks for perservering AusTrackers! Glad you it found for us.
 
Looked fir 10 or so mins.... Couldn't find it. We looked thoroughly at a location a little off gz which looked promising, but no luck.
Can you please confirm it is still there?
 
14-Mar-11
Spent 15mins looking for what was described as a simple cache. May want to check if this cache is still here as we had no luck.
 
19-Jan-11
Nice size cache.

02-Jan-11
found this one in January when visiting farmer brown in west lakes
 
01-Jan-11
didnt like this one - too much going on - dog barking - owner telling it to shut up - bees in flowers and crunchy dry leaves
eventually all calmed down and the obvious was found along with a pathtag so all worth while in the end Big Grin

This is defiantly close to home! Its a good think we didin't try to dismantle it in attempts to find the cache! The co-ordinates had us at the corner of the house, instead of where we found it. Using the 10m guideline, we retrieved it from its hiding spot, and signed it and rode off again. TFTC
 
05-Dec-10
The eldest geokid turned 10 today – so we just had to make a log entry. Turned out the four kids in tow were all more interested in the play equipment whilst dad was on hands and knees looking for the treasure. We took the Geocoin and left a little ring.

Another great Adelaide park, showing Byercat about different types of cache hides T pathtag coin TFTC

very easy find TFTC
 
07-Jul-10
I failed here in the dark one night long ago so it was good to come back again, especially since the construction next to the cache was now as good as finished.
An easy find, so much easier in daylight.

Good cache. The cache was in a really easy to see spot. TFTC
 
20-Jun-10
Woohoo. #100. Had a look a couple of days ago with no success. Today was easy. The hard part was putting it back when a family of four came to the park for a play. Had to pretend to play hide and seek with geokids to replace the cache. TNLN TFTC

Also found *I am the Batkey* in the cache and in the afternoon
found the Bat Cache - This was a lot of fun - Unfortunately lost husband's glasses
in the Bat Cache vicinity.
 
28-Apr-10
Found on the way to Mountain Lioness' place - the beginning of a nice night's caching after work. Bark everywhere alright but nice easy find. Hopefully the large piles of bark won't combust and cause any issues with this cache. TFTC
 
18-Apr-10
Wow! Mulch still everywhere but did not stop us from the prize. TFTC
 
21-Mar-10
Playground was full of teenagers so we sent kids out to play red rover and handstands and all that kid stuff that makes it just a family outing.
Our ground Zero was smack bang under the biggest pile of bark that is waiting to be spread.....
we will be back!

Thank you very much for showing this place.

Found it really easily tonight! The light was shining just right. We just weren't looking properly last time. TFTC
 
07-Feb-10
Third visit and finally off the list. Had seen it was found after our dnf so hoping for some geotracks to assist it looked the same as the last time we were here, no tracks must have been a straight to find. Found it with the same search patern as last time. How did we miss it then? Checked log book to see we are first log for 2010. ??????? Last finders must have forgotten to sign? TFTCSL took giraffe left gecko. I did see the gardeners note. I am glad they supported the hide and left the bush.
 
30-Jan-10
a quick find tnln tftc
 
30-Jan-10
looked everywhere. No idea where it could be. Our only DNF for the day.
 
15-Jan-10
for an 'easy find' - we didn't find it quickly so wonder if it's not there since the building work done? Could require more effort on our part though, may try again.
 
27-Dec-09
Not sure too much to look through especially the lawn clippings and construction debri will return.
 
21-Dec-09
aarrrrrrrgggg Muggles. DNF on Toms caching hunt of Grange. will come back another day when there is not any muggles around.
 
05-Dec-09
Another easy find made hard by me.
Took a lot longer than it should due to some deep overthinking!!!!
The boy and the dog loved the playground.
Thanks for a good cache in a nice suburban park.
Took: finger puppet, Left: Christmas bobble.
Cheers and happy caching.
 
07-Nov-09
Took me a while to find this one, but taking a new perspective on it gave me the goods in a different light.
Found while walking far from home with my 4 year old.
TFTC.
The container could properly do with another spray.
 
30-Oct-09
Found on a caching trip with Acts2YouthGroup. This one was found after a bit of a search. I had a real sense of deja vu here and think that I have searched for this one before. In the end it was A2Y who made the find.
 
30-Oct-09
This was cache # 25 of 41 for the day, in the company of Alansee on our five day long weekend Adelaide caching Bonanza. I began to wonder if there were any kids in Adelaide as most of the play grounds we saw on our trip were empty. The cache took a few minutes to locate. My thanks to dalyrere for the cache.
 
25-Oct-09
Out for an afternoon geocaching with the kids - they loved the play equipment nearby GZ.
This was my second visit to this cache and I thought it was going to elude me again,
but persistence pays off - a very satisfactory find Cool.
T - stapler
L - finger puppets

The Gangsters (The Rats, Big Matt & Shell, Farmer Frentzen and Steeba) found this cache as part of our record breaking run around Adelaide. I wonder whether this cache will last when the residents move it. Shoe hint is great.

Thanks for being part of the hunt.
