Road tripping with membsec, finding a few caches along the way. I was happy to find that this archive was still in position, what a lovely little church and interesting history.

Thanks for the cache bubbles1971 Big Grin

On 2 day trip of the north with Nyssaflutterby so she couldn't resist helping us find archived caches. Great to see that this one is still here at this historic church.

Extremely easy find.
The lid was off the container, some dead bugs were also floating around in it - which I assume were NOT swaps!

I'd personally suggest finding a better place for this cache - same area though. This is a beautiful church.
Very creepy at night though.

Spooky at night time. Something about churches in graveyards at night seem just that little forboding. Lid was off the cache unfortunately. TFTC found with TheEuphorian and KillKillMultiply.

Drove past this one earlier in the day, but being Sunday (& Aust Day to boot), it was - well, rather busy. Came back mid afternoon to find a single muggle taking piccies. Yeah, it's a nice church. Waited for his departure "pretending" to look at headstones. I'm usually a bit wary of caches in graveyards but this one was OK with two thumbs up.

This was our 4th cache find in the caching run & we found it at 11:02
So this now makes our total find count 6110.

Time is running out. We leave the Launceston area in a few days, and there's still heaps of caches to find.
A very interesting church. The GPS led us around a bit, and then settled on a good spot.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Under 2 metres)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Plastic man
Thanks bubbles1971 for the hunt today.

On the forth last palendromic day of the year decided to get the cache score up a bit. Lovely day out. Worth investigating this cache if only for the church's history. Thank you.

Nice little wander through the church grounds - my GPS was jumping all over the place, was it the weather or the location?? Found thanks to the description - TFTC!!
 
26-Mar-13
A little frog was living in the cache location. A nice easy find after a bit of a scratch around.

This trip to Tasmania going anticlockwise from Devonport is our third trip and the first in our motorhome. This is another cache, there will be many more, hopefully.
