Found it, took a while, we were barking up the wrong tree! Our dog Robbie enjoyed the run.
Took me a little longer than it should have. Ended up being back in one of the first places I looked (obviously didn't look well enough). Nice little hide, in yet another lovely little Levin park.
Loved the nearby tree fungus as well. (perhaps that's the fairy house mentioned in a previous log).

A quick find. Co-ords seemed off, but it was obvious where the cache should be - and it was.

A day visiting Foxton and Levin with JonoS today. Started in rain which fortunately stopped managed to find quite a few with only three DNF.
Quick find but not where we thought it should be according to the coordinates given.
Thanks for the cache.

26/11/13. Found it. Not a dog in site only a couple of mormans pounding the pavements. tftc
Felt a lil sorry for this "local" damp ol' cache - so decided to give it a Birthday!
Removed and dried contents and rehoused into a new cache container of similar size.
Also better camoflaged the cache.
Also added a New World Little Shop Collectable to the cache - go, go, go!

Thank you for an easy cache in a cute little park which has some beautiful trees. The log book is somewhat soggy.

Headed out for a stroll to see if I can grab the 3 caches on this side of Levin, after changing the location of Argyle Park by about 9 mtrs, so hopefully won't be muggled again for a fourth time !
Quick find due to limited hide locations, tho was tricky to remove, replace and then re-hide with needles and twigs.

A couple of kids were playing in the front yard across the road but I spotted, grabbed, logged, and replaced without anyone being the wiser....except me of course .
Cache container is a bit damp inside but I was still able to sign. CO may want to check up on this one.

Good hide, a few muggles despite the rainy weather. A little high for the kids to find, but they navigated to the right place!
#899. A quick find in a nicely deserted park this afternoon. -coin, -ball, +spring, +caveman. SL, TFTC.
A quick find, but took a few goes to get the cache out of its hiding place.

First Found in the new year!
That's where I wait every morning for the school bus, so I already knew the park.

Nice hide SS_girl Please go and dry it out as you took me to a part of Levin I have never been TFTC
Nice & easy - my very first cache! Lowly boy muggle watching - has to wait for him to disappear!
Had a spare minute today - so had a quick search of the area. Easy find, left the cache where it was (hiding it a bit better!). Will go back and complete the log at a later date!
Well hidden, took a while to find this one, having a dog would really help to distract muggles too...

Didn't even bother to take the GPS with me for this one, spotted the likely hiding spot from some distance away. TFTC

Had to do a bit of manovouring of the hand because it was to big for the hole TFTC
Our two Levin natives (Mr Orsome4some and the geo-grandma) did not know of the existence of this pretty little park. Some lovely trees. Jhony-5NZ made a quick find. TFTC!
(#10 of 13 for a weekend away). A quick find once Mr Muggle across the road stopped admiring the front of his house. Container is a bit wet and there wasn't really anything to cover it with so would be quite visible to an inquisitive child tall enough to see.

On holidays from Australia enjoying a caching trip with J+J.au. Always amazed at the places and sights that geocaching shows me. (Sorry about the CandP but just too many to log). SL..TFTC
I attempted to do this a couple of days earlier but had to abandon as one of Jax's "cousins" and its owner were right beside the GZ, not to mention that the neighbour was doing some work on her garden next door.
Cache wasn't particularly wet but things are getting quite mouldy, certainly could do with a bit of a cleanup and a replacement log.
Cover was a wee bit too thin, so added a bit more.

A quick easy find of a very wet and smelly cache, although the log was still dry. TFTC
#3 for the day and the junior cachers had the location down before even leaving the car.
Thanks for the cache

A quick find as the cache wasn't wedged anywhere and was in the open. After signing it I tried to cover it up but I am pretty sure it isn't where it was supposed to be. Nice little park and a good spot for a cache, TFTC.
Found the cache pretty much in the open in the tree next door to where the gps said it should be so put it back as best we could where we thought it should be, taking into account what the hint said. However, it might be a good idea for the owner to check to see if is where it should be. Lovely little park area free of muggles. TFTC
Nice little park on this damp day. Cache was in full view. We've rehidden it as best we could, but it is rather vulnerable. TFTC
Found sitting in full view and not sure where it was wedged. Placed back how I found it. You might want to check on it. TFTC
it was in ful view today so I returned it "in, up, head height" ( if, you are not too tall that is.
Couldnt find it to save my life, until 8 yr old Emily stepped up to the plate...advantages to being short, with a 4-foot-high perpective. Nice hide... contents a little wet.
Was in Levin for work and had just finished grabbing a joint FTF with Ronbu and noticed that there was another cache that wasnt too far away that I could do before carrying on my way north to Palmerston North. Arriving near GZ I was able to find a carpark not too far from GZ, I tried to do this cache when I was here last week but there was a muggle near GZ with his K9 friend so I decided that I would leave it till my next visit. Arriving at GZ and the park was deserted, a quick walk to GZ and noticed that the area had being well searched, decided to trust my GPS and see where it was taking me and after a quick search I soon had the cache in hand. What a nice spot for a cache, thanks for placing a cache here and for bringing me to this lovely little park, TFTC TNLNSL (4040)
Got a few funny looks from a dog-walking muggle while we tried to discretely look for this one. Once she had moved on we could make a more thorough search, and eventually came up with the cache. Thanks.
