Geocache cannister has been removed from location. I will replace in due course.
Out on a caching day with ooh yeh. A quick find but had to hurry ooh yeh up while she was signing log as a muggle, looking for his golf ball was approaching. Muggle turned his attention to a different place so cache was quickly replaced and we were out of there.

Decided to get a last day of caching in with skippy 46 before i go to bali in the morning. Had another successful day with 26 finds and no DNFS. Most caches were easy finds with a few that took a bit of searching and a couple of sneaky hides to make it a bit more interesting. A quick find here but the log book is full and needs replacing TFTC
Out on a bike caching run with family today, this was find #2, Logbook will need replacing soon

geo mum found it. I though we were going to be hit by a golfer but he was a good shot.
Found @ 16:25!
Find #1 today.
Seemed like all the children in Perth under the age of 10 were playing in the nearby field today!
Approached GZ with a little apprehension as there were a couple of golfers knocking their balls in the general direction. Fortunately the cache was easily located slightly around the corner from them so it was OK!
Cache was easy to find. Signed last space in log when a few golf balls landed nearby! No golfers in sight so decided to add a new log. Had to neatly rip it in half to fit it comfortably in the container, but it should save on Maintenance for at least another 6 months! Original log still in container.
Quite tricky to screw the lid on as it had been cross-threaded in the past, but took my time and all was fine.
TFTC!

Quite easy but very small. It took us two days to find it. You have to have a good brain to find it.
Clever hide but only a quick visit because it seemed likely there might be another shower of golf balls!
Thanks ATESPearse

Great cache in an unusual location. Went out there on my bike to find it earlier this morning. Not many golfers out this morning, perhaps scared off by the cooler weather and clouds. TFTC
Found without GPSr about 8 a.m. on a pleasant day by Bunya's B and B's brother, whose strong fingers were needed to unfasten the container.
Thanks, ATESPearce.
Thanks, ATESPearce.
After an unpleasant but successful morning in the city, I thought I would reward myself with a bit of caching before heading home. Found this one after a short wild goose chase compliments of my wayward gps. Thanks ATESPearce
I decided to try to find as many caches as I could after work today. This was #1, and it was a nice quick find. TFTC
A nice, easy find thanks to the hint 
... although a few golf balls landed in my general direction from up the fairway somewhere 
. I was quick to sign the log before the balls owners came looking for them

I've got plans to hide in this area so keep an eye out.

Found in the driving rain. Took a while to open as it had been threaded. Needed to use my pliers to get it undone but was able to close it back up properly afterwards. TFTC.
Found it though needed the clue. It's very close to the golf course practise hole so a bit hairy with kids. Got shouted at by 2 golfers!
Found quickly on a beautiful Sunday morning with Geodog who found 4 golf balls and a tennis one at gz. Thanks for the cache

Nice location and a simple find. Don't know what happened to the writing stick between our last find and here - might end up in a magpie's nest. So log unsigned by us! TFTC
Quick caching run on the lunch break with the geo missus. Found some balls along the way. TFTC
Thanks MattBrieley for replacing the log paper. I've been overseas for a while and have just got back so I was planning on going to the cache and changing it out so you've saved me the trouble. No idea what hoodyioreth is on about regarding archiving the cache. I'm glad people have enjoyed this one as it is in a really nice area. ATESPearce.
And this makes Geocache #1 for me 
Of course I would forget to bring a pen

Coordinates were perfect! They led me to the exact spot, and I was able to make a quick find here.
There was quite a few golfers out and about today, and a few other groups of people enjoying the park.
Thanks for cache ATESPearce!

Found today whilst out caching in the rain. Fount without problems and everything OK with the container.
Thanks for the cache.

Easy find but cache in pieces. Top bit attached presumably as it's supposed to be, bottom half on the ground and inner container and log hidden in long grass. Wonder if it was muggled. Have put it all back together...TFTC
Found this cache on a month ago but missed logging it. A good almost daring hide. TFTH
Was a dangerous but exciting find with golf and hockey balls flying in all directions.
Had to dodge a few golf balls, I didn't know it was a driving range
until a ball landed about three metres away.
TFTC
LOg sheet full,I started on the back.

Rode past on Saturday and had a quick look around. There were hundreds of people around playing and watching hockey so I had to abandon search. For my return visit, I'd cheated and looked at the gallery so it was pretty easy to spot the cache hanging down from about 100m away. Very nifty cache. Thanks for the hide ATESPearce.
Lovely winters day for a walk, out with Miss 7 for Fathers Day geocaching expedition TFTC.
TFTC.Day 60 .. One of two....
Nice quick and easy find with a fading and failing GPS!

Found nice little container right where I expected it ( see last two logs). SL while picking up Geodogs deposit. TFTH ATESPearce.
Wasn't where I was expecting as I approached GZ. Geokids had a great time with the golf balls. TFTC.
Good hide...great day and spot for caching...enjoyed the sunshine....thank you ATESPearce
A pleasurable wander over the playing fields to reach GZ, cache spotted as I approached.

This was an unusual location and the cache hide was also unexpected. Enjoyed visiting the area. TFTC
Quick find on the way home. Started to rain so I scampered off quickly. SL TFTC
Found the cache quickly after nearly wandering into the Golf practice area.
Fortunately no balls were landing at the time but they started arriving soon after I left. TFTC

After my failure to get FTF due to muggles running interference I came back at 3:12am.
I'd just finished work and decided to check the cache log, in was clean so I went for it. Got there found I was 6th and then reload the site and realised i hadn't reloaded when I did my first check.
Still got it straight away with some very lucky flash light work, getting the reflection of it just right from 10m away.

Got there at 14:54, so was first there but there was a wood chipper about 10m from GZ. I couldn't search but it might be found by the chippers.

I had a meeting which finished a little early so drove by and got 3TF at 4.00 pm. I noticed the signs warning about golf balls after one missed me by about 2 metros and another couple which landed near me while I was replacing the cache. Take an umbrella! TFTC!
Saw this one published as Mr Felix was having a little nap when these came up. Well that couldn't last. Quick Quick new caches released. In the car within 15mins of being published so only knew of the first 2 new releases. Arrived at GZ in the rain to find a truck mulching within 5 metres of the cache. Luckily they were packing up and didn't take much notice of us. No golfers, guess because it was raining. Plenty of lime green balls close to GZ though. Very quick **FTF** at 15:15. (Mr Felix does lots of work at this site, so he knew how to get there fast!) TFTC ATESPearceThis entry was edited by FelixII on Monday, 11 July 2011 at 14:10:31 UTC.
