On another night caching run with Quasar3671 - my good mate Marty. This time the cache run was down his way. As per Quasar3671's comments. Could do with a check from the owner to confirm. TFTC.

Out night caching with Marshy (Blacklegend) who was down from the country to stay the night. Did a number local caches before heading north. Searched the area and came across an imprint in the ground under the leaves where the cache probably had been and a tupperware container lid. Maybe the fencers have found and removed the cache. Will change the log if this proved not to be the case.

Didnt really have to find this one as it wasn't hidden. Just sitting there in plain view. I rescued the TB and gave it a bit more cover.

Quick easy find by the cover of darkness, no muggles about. Took trackable for the next leg of it's journey. Cache in good condition. TFTC!!!

Gaping hole in the fence gives the house next door and great views of GZ. Will aim to return some time when the fence rebuilding is complete. Hope the digging of new holes for new fence posts has not taken the cache out.

Easy to find although very close to other houses,

I did feel a little exposed with the house next door.

Left the TB.

Yes, a very small park, I like these odd little patches that are throughout the Melbourne suburbs an they are so convenient for placing caches in. I sat in the car to fill in the log book and a little bird came a sat on the mirror of the car and stared at me, it was quite odd. Thanks for the cache!

Not a bad little location on a fine day of caching. TNLN SL TFTC.

A very small park indeed!!!! A classic display of drive by caching at its best. Thanks for the cache - took the travel bug and slug and will move them on.
 
18-Jul-10
Found this little park and cache. Took a golf ball and squirt gun, left Spiderman TB and a travel slug.
 
14-Jul-10
Found it! Good to go earlier in morning or later in afternoons to avoid the crowd. Lots of fun. Thank you - this was our first adventure.
 
08-Jul-10
Container was clearly visible out in the open when I pulled up on the side of the road, clips weren't even fastened. However all contents were safe, so I signed log and re-hid where I thought it should be. Cheers!

Edit: It looks like some kids have found it and signed the logbook since iamapom's find a few days ago... Good to see they didn't destroy it.

Found by Mary & David at 1425. The combination of a cold Saturday afternoon and school holidays was fortunate for us - nobody else in sight. No Harold TB to be seen, but we dropped off 'Travel Bug Dog Tag'. Our thanks to Skilord.

A very small park indeed. Beware the pile of leaves that LOOKS like a cache but is actually hiding a dog turd!

Nice quick find on a run of caching today TFTC TNLN SL

a quick found together with my team! TFTC
 
18-Apr-10
This was the second of an even half a dozen on a 31 Km Bike Ride. The GPS told us that it was in the school at one stage, but we knew it couldnt be so we went to the small park. Found it quite easily. Signed the log and hid it back. TFTC! Smile
 
18-Apr-10
Found the cache in this petite park while the man next door messed around with his boat. He seemed friendly, so maybe he's used to weirdos rummaging around this leafy spot. I sure hope so.

Thanks for showing me this very Small Park, Skilord.
 
16-Apr-10
And isnt it?
Perhaps we should have a smallest park competeition - this one is certainly a contender.
TFTC - re hid a little better than found.
 
14-Apr-10
Easy find without the hint. Thanks for leading me to the Small park - I never knew it existed, despite living in the area for a LONG time!

Found it. Left TB. TFTC.
 
24-Jan-10
Found with the help of the hint. Just replaced it and went back to the car when some more geocachers came by. I said "hi" but they didn't go for the find. Maybe they'll cone back. I guess that means I need to watch the logs!

New to the official world of caching but have been involved since 17th of April 2009 (my first cache find). But have only just gotten a log name. Time to log all the wonderful caches that I have been finding since I have been caching with The Empire. My name in the log book is H.
My first cache for 2010. Very exciting to get back to caching.

The cache really lives up to its name! Saw the cache from about 5 meters away, not hidden well. Hid cache a little better when we left. Took squishy mouse, left two wishing stones. TFTC

No TB's in this cache, but there was a SPIDER! Argh!! It's a wonder the neighbours didn't look out their window, I don't think they were home, phew! Certainly makes my hundredth memorable!

First One! Thank you to our friends for introducing us to Geocaching - A fantastic way to end my birthday Smile

Went to cache area but they had Christmas Carols going in that park. Little kids swarming everywhere. No chance in hell of retrieving it without getting spotted. Will come back some other time.

Thanks Skilord

On the way back home from the Halloween event in the company of Robmc, we stopped and grabbed a few that I hadn't yet done..
I'm not sure I'd call this one a park? But yes, it is pretty small.
TNLNSL
Thanks Skilord for the cache.
 
31-Oct-09
It's really a small park.
Great weather today to stroll around that area.
 
25-Oct-09
'twas an easy find, partly because it was almost completely uncovered. I gave it a bit more cover; let's hope the wind isn't strong enough to blow away the camo this time. It certainly is a small park!
 
19-Oct-09
Found it on our second try. It is hidden well.

Mr Invisable (aka travel bug) requested a ride to a new location, so we felt obligated to help him.

Was visiting friends nearby,so I went and found your cache in this tiny park.
TFTC.
 
18-Oct-09
This was quite a small park although not quite as small as GC185MH, Smokey Milkbar, now that was a small park! Still it appeared that the good weather had enticed the neighbors out for the day so we were able to find your cache relatively easily. And also a seat so you can log your find as well.Big Grin Thanks again to Skilord for the cache.
 
14-Oct-09
Small, did you say! It reminds me of a similar one in Fitzroy. The cache was found quickly by Acts2youthgroup today. TFTC
 
14-Oct-09
This was cache # 4 of 42 for the day, in the company of alansee on our Bayside & Mornington Peninsula tour, the cache was found at 08:45. A small park is not wrong, we seemed to time this just right as the rain had the Muggles at bay while we were there, as we drove off a precession of Muggle children was arriving. My thanks to Skilord for the cache.
 
11-Oct-09
Yep.....it's a park.

Yep.....it's small.

It was fairly quiet around here this afternoon apart from the muggle neighbour only metres away hanging out the washing Surprised.

I managed to quickly and quietly recover the cache at 15:15. TNLN

My thanks to Skilord.
