Cache has been stolen again. so no point in replacing as looks like they will be back to take it again as soon as it is replaced
A day in the hills followed by the event at Hardinge Park, with plenty of caching in between
Out in the hills today for an event at Hardinge Park in Orange Grove. Following the event, Tiger777 and I cleaned up a number of outstanding dots on the map.
The hint was straight forward, but it took two of us some time scratching around in the dark to locate this one. Glad to walk away with a smilie. Cheers rayozzy!

Such a great sculpture mostly hidden behind weeds.
Thank you for bringing me to this awesome spot

I was almost defeated by the wet overgrown weeds and glare on this one, but persisted to make the find.
Great to see some otherwise unknown sculptural pieces!

Find 10 of 21 with a single DNF on a magical bike ride exploring the Canning River and surrounds on a beautiful winter's day.
A nice piece of artwork but sad to see it's covered and hidden by the undergrowth. Mr O picked the right part of the host to start looking.

Find #330 of 365 streak. Arrived to find an overgrown art piece. Sad really. I missed the little devil on the first pass. I clambered over and dug about before returning to a more focused search and looked hard to find it. TFTC.
Spent a few min searching. Potty is so overgrown. Could not locate. Kids got a bit over looking
Hi Rayozzy we were out in the area this afternoon and impressed to find this bit of sculpture just hidden off the PSP. The attaching device is quite weak and the unit was consequently placed in such a way as to not roll to the ground. Hopefully this all sits well with the CO.
After yesterday's weather we were not expecting to go cachi g today. But we awoke to glorious sunshine. We were dubious that it would last so made a late start a very pleasant walk to an easy find. We squeezed our initials on but the log is full & needs replacing. Sorry did not have a spare today. TFTC
Tftc. Easy find for the kids. Very hard to sign. Needs new log. Such a shame this is overgrown!
Found it
Needs new paper to sign, this was full. I wrote date but very hard to do so. Thank you. Great walk.

Out continuing our smiley hunt this morning with Neva2old, we came up trumps with a nice quick find here, the log is full so we signed over the top of others TFTC
Another morning caching with Parkacruz, trying to get a few in before the rain. TFTC
Found a little magnet but nothing to write or log on fun track and made us go through new areas wouldn't have gone thtough. Had fun trying to look for it. Thank you.
awesome hidden sculpture which unfortunately is left overgrown. the cache itself needs maintenance as someone has jammed the lid on it, meaning i couldnt sign it. cool find tho
Lovely sculpture, such a shame it is so overgrown and the signage difficult to read! A nice quick find though!
TFTC Rayozzy!

Such a waste that this artwork is so neglected.
After missing it on the first go around, spotted it on the second. TFTC Rayozzy.

A nice quick find while out strolling in the cool of the evening.

In the area finding a few caches this was our next target... Have driven by this one many times but today was the day for a find 
Thankfully it was not any further to walk as it was stinking hot today... Jase quickly found the prize whilst we read up about the Chelodina. A shame that these sculptures along the highway go unnoticed!
TFTC rayozzy
No problems for us adding our names to the logbook.

No problems for us adding our names to the logbook.Went for a bbq and play in park then decided to add a cache to our tally with geokid
Found it! Dropped the log in the long grass and spent longer finding the log than I spent finding the cache!
We first set out to look for the cache from Mills Park but were stopped by the stream. I read about the sculpture but we weren't sure whether the rusty thing we could see was that or junk. I went off later with just the geohound and got around to the right spot - pity it's got overgrown around the sculpture. Was thinking I could get back by a shorter route but the paved path into Mills Park was inexplicably blocked by a fence. TFTC.
Found, and managed to open, but the log has swollen a little and can't get it out. No wuckers.

How low can I go... Found it but couldn't open the little cache. Must be glued shut. Lol. TFTC
Out for a walk with the dog and 2 DNFs already due to muffling I wanted to find one in this strange land!
Found the cache as described (photo) buy couldn't open it as think it has been cross threaded rusted or just my sweaty hands.
Hopefully the next finder has more luck.
Thanks

Hit the jackpot today after sustaining injury while scaling the fence. Wasn't going to return without a find. Tftc!
This cache has been my closest to home for ages. I bought a new bike today, and this cache was the perfect way to try it out. Cache located and log signed.
G'Day rayozzy. SVKR_WA found your cache on 19 July 2016. This find brings our finds count to 1398.
We have signed the log and replaced the hide as found.
Thanks for bringing us to this place.

Thanks a lot for the cache rayozzy

Rushed out to grab a cache as a giant storm was approaching. I could not find two others in the area so time was pressing. I ran down to this one along the path but the cache area was blocked off by a giant fence! Not going to stop me. I jumped it and the cache as in hand shortly after. To be honest I did not feel like hanging around the metal sculpture as lightning flashed overhead!! Got back to the car just as it started raining heavily. TFTC!
Out geocaching with the geowife! Tftf cache may need some help soon, as it's not very magnetic anymore.
An old cache that we for some reason has been overlooked for too long. Happy to be able to tick it off the map. Thanks rayozzie.
Out on a day caching with sr_sparky throughout and around Cannington.
Parked next to sports oval and walked over. Found very quick. TFTC
