19-Jun-16
We thought it was about time we made a dent in the "solved but not yet found" list of caches, which numbers in the hundreds for Canterbury alone, before more get archived. The Angry Birds series was our main target today, plus the big Lincoln Pump Station multi so we headed south.
This was one of the trads we squeezed in today as it was close to one of the pump WPs. I looked in the obvious spot without success but StreetWalker had a better look and found the cache Red Face. Lots of leaves and acorns on the ground so we crunched and rustled as we walked. TFTC.
 
19-Jun-16
#12549. Our main task in Lincoln was to visit the waypoints of the Lincoln Pump Station Trail. This cache was near one of the WPs, so we walked across to it and made a quick find. TFTC.
 
04-Jun-16

26-Mar-16
We stayed here awhile and used the picnic table to have our picnic dinner. Yummy freshly made works sammies. It was abit cold in the wind and I joked there was probably another picnic table nearby that wasnt windy. After packing the food away we went to search for the cache but the GPS wouldnt settle so we ended up searching for the clue on both sides on the stream and saw another picnic table not in the shade or wind Big Grin Feeling defeated making our way back to the car we were still checking randomly for the hint and we found it. Thanks for the cache Smile
 
20-Mar-16
A quick find today on my way home.

16-Feb-16
Lincoln Guides found it.
 
16-Feb-16
Out to Lincoln to tell the local Guides about Geocaching and to help them with more of the badge they can now do. Of course we had to go find one so this was the closest. Think they had fun following the gps as they first tried to go the direct route - through a private property but we soon had them on track and to the proper location after explaining that the shortest way is not necessarily the quickest. I know of at least one girl who wants to give it a go after so that is better than none.

Sick of being stuck inside in the school holidays and TEF Jnr earned an obedience reward which he chose as a walk. So we headed to Lincoln for a change of scenery and had fun discovering the walkway and cache. TEF Jnr spotted it in no time. TFTC
