Walked all the way from the other side of the grounds at night, with a very very cold wind in my face. Do not recommend. Finding the cache was simple, extracting it was not, but I got my name down eventually. Tftc!

08-Feb-18
Found on a wander round the area to get my numbers up so I could make Baldwin Street my #1700 later in the day.

Nice spot.

I was a bit concerned when I saw that the vegetation was a collection of plants that cachers approach with some fear and trembling but with the helpful hint it wasn't a problem. Still took me about three goes to get the cache even though I was looking and feeling in the right place.

I had to be a bit careful because one of the neighbours was out maintaining the grounds. Someone else was enjoying sitting on the picnic table too enjoying the lovely morning but fortunately she was facing away from my direction.
TFTC.

In town for today to raid the Friday Shop and we wanted to do the Art Gallery too. We were at the bakery at 7am and had our brekkie at the beach and we had some time on our hands. There was a new multi in the area and walked around the inlet back to the truck. This we had to walk by as a resident in the local hospital was having a fag outside. I completed the multi and the coast was clear for a quick grab.

Thanks for the cache us04.

I had to do something to while away the time before the event at lunchtime and what better than to sign off a few caches. I had parked in the carpark near Slides and Swings but they were occupied so it was time for a little walk. No kites today but there was certainly enough wind.

Cheers for the cache.
