The ice cream cone has been eaten.
Actually it has been dismantled after 41 years that i know of that the ice cream cone has been there.So i have had to archive Thinking Ice Cream.

Just noticed that the ice cream cone has been fenced off and i am assuming that they are gonna remove it.
I will just wait and see if it does get dismantled or not before i remove it completely.

Found while out caching with The Cashman and The Don.

Took a while to find GZ and even harder to get cache out of its hide.

No muggles today.

steeba

Found on a mammoth day's caching of 124 caches in 17 hours around the Maitland and Port Stephens area with The Rats and Farmer Frentzen.

I might have more been thinking 'schooner glass' but icecream did the job. An interesting structure indeed [?].

The cache took a minute or two of looking here and there before it was spotted. TFTC!

FarmerFrentzen

Found during a 17 hour caching spree with The Rats and steeba that yielded 124 finds.

A short search in the likely places yielded the desired result.

TNLN and thanks Morky70 for the cache.

Decided to do a quick run around East Maitland. Called in for a quick find. The coords had me in the trees but the clue showed me the way.

Found at 6.50pm. There is a vague likeness to ice-cream here. Found easily by geopa. Just collecting a few caches on our way to dinner at geopa's nephew's home in Rutherford. TFTC

This is our 4450th overall find.

Found at about 6:26 PM. I only had to read the cache name to know where this one was going to be. I amazingly walked straight to the right spot and put my hand on the cache straight away.

Thanks to Morky70 for the cache.

My GPSr must have been off. It put me in the bushes, plenty of spots to hide it in there. Now I have the full name and read the page, it all makes sense. Will go back tomorrow.

found at 1.15pm GAFF1. Oh yeah - I get it!! There are a few of these structures around aren't there. As I approached GZ I was turning towards where the cache eventually was found, but the GPS said "No - follow me - over here 8 metres in the middle of nowhere". So not wanting to upset my good friend, I allowed myself to go over to "GZ" and stare at a piece of grass for 2 seconds and then politely tell Mr eXplorist that it might be more prudent to check over there! But not before doing an arc and checking all of the surrounding vegetation. So after 3 minutes the cache was found in the first place that was thought of!
Thanks Morky70.

As I was in the area with Smurfyguy & Calypso62, finding a few quick caches seemed the thing to do. Understood the reason for the cache name. A quick find & we were on our way. TFTC

I think morky likes icecream and m&ms.

TFTC morky.

I had poped by here last week and taken a photo of the 'cherry ontop' (if you will).
on the geocaching Australia website, there is a database of trig stations.
A photo of one with your GPS in the pic will count it as a 'find'.
I have been looking to see if that one up there was listed already.
It wasn't. but now it is. http://geocaching.com.au/cache/tp5436

The cache name had us scratching our heads too - but like previous cachers we worked it out as soon as we got close. We've never seen this place before. When we got close to GZ we had to grab a few sticks to push all the spiders and spiders webs aside to search for the cache. After circling the structure a few times we finally spotted the cache.

I was wondering what on earth the name of this cache was all about. I soon had my answer when I arrived at the cache location. My GPSr had GZ a little away from where I found the cache. Th clue was invaluable for zooming in to make the grab. With log signed, the cache was returned ready for the next searcher. TFTC.

On the way back from grabbing a DVD young Tamykian ask if we could do a night and being black Friday why not..We were not really prepared for night caching (no torch) but thanks to out trusty Iphone and Ipod we managed to generate enough light to move in, out and around until we came up with the goods..A quick signing, back it went and so did we a race back to the car...

cheers
