Had an afternoon free on my Business trip from the east coast and so took the opportunity to complete some caches in Perth. Stumbled upon these Fabulous February caches and enjoyed all that I could complete. I felt very exposed picking this one up and the log is completely soaked through. Will need replacing when owner gets a chance. Thanks .K.B. for the cache and the series.
Container water logged and log soaked, emptied and returned to hiding place lid down, no real hope for that logs recovery, couldn't sign, I took pic for proof TFTC

walked toe park to collect the few in the area....this was a different hide...TFTC
Eventually found it. Was looking for an eclipse tin so looked past it initially. Think neighbours were a bit suspicious that there were wet sandy footsteps on the path behind their house that stopped then shuffled around for a few minutes then left again.
Wonderful find today with GeoChildren while out and about exercising. TFTC
Another morning of caching, on the north side of Perth.
Visited some nice parks around the area, and some clever suburban hides.
Thanks for the cache, .K.B..

Today I caught the bus to a suburb unknown to me, Dianella. A few hours and 4.5 km later, I had a new PB, 21 caches!
Find number 6, an easy one! TFTC, K.B.!

I forgot to log this one yesterday, this was our last cache of the day and we made a quick find here TFTC kbinuk2005
Our last cache for the day and was happy to make a quick find right where GPS said it would be.

Found this one this morning, it has been replaced and is still there, although it is no longer a mint tin. But an easy find none the less.

Suspect the resident on the other side of the fence has weeded this one away. A trial replacement was placed on the weekend to see whether they will now be on the lookout for a cache.
Out for a planned afternoon of caching with Theoutbackwizard101 and TH of TH/CS. Aimed for 20 finds, ended up with 26 with only 2 DNF along the way, no 10 minute rule today, all finds in around 2 minutes or under.
#12. Our second DNF, it appeared to be obvious where this one should be but it wasn't there, checked the wall for around 15m in both directions from GZ.

GSAGC #423. This was a record day... in a record month... in a record year Eighteenth of 30 finds in the Inglewood / Dianella / Yokine area today. My big day was mostly thanks to kbinuk2005 for the Fabulous February series of caches. TFTH.
Day two and a warmer, drier day greeted me as I left the accom in town. Nice hide and find. This time I headed North and found a great variety of caches and hides, and also visiting spots I'd never been to before. Thanks again kbinuk2005
Found @ 12:01!
Find #35 of 50 on a walking-day largely dedicated to geocaching to clear much of the area before moving in a few weeks!
On approach I thought this would be a real mission to find with all the leaf litter about!
Fortunately I was wrong and it was a very easy find on arrival at GZ!

Nice and easy to introduce my sister in law to geocaching. Log sheet almost out of room. 2 spaces left. Didn't have a pen so didn't sign. TFTC.
Out for a days caching between showers on the geobike with SPN WRC.
Quick find.

Out for a caching ride on the Geo bike Tracey with AndrewSWRT for the morning. Getting wet to start with but the weather soon fined up. Clocked up 30 caches on our 22.2km ride with one DNF.
Another quick find for the tally. TFTC

I enjoyed a nice walk around the bush part of Breckler park, and ended up on this path. There was a dog walker out and I passed him just before the cache, so I sat down for a rest, and found I was less than a metre from the cache.
Thanks for the hunt KB!

Had a few spare hours so took off geocaching to pick up as many of the Fabulous February series as I could. Found most of them. TFTC
Picked Fabulous Firsday to go caching with Keego and Chil as our second major attack on the Northern Suburbs. Our mode of transport this time was by bike and it proved to be a winner having found over 20 caches in 90mins. I was always last to arrive at each cache short of breath.
As general comment most caches were very easy to find compared to some caches in the Southern Suburbs and in open areas, the playground caches concerned me as anybody watching us would have seen two old guys looking under equipment. Some bush hides surprised me as I know of some owners not liking to look for caches in those areas but they were mostly one step off the path.
We left the area feeling very successful in finding every cache and liking the easy hides.
Congratulations go to the owners of these caches in giving us a great tour of the area and the knowledge that simple is sometimes better.

My first real caching sortie into the much maligned Northside of the Swan River with AmstradKid. All caches were done by manual pedal power and little knowledge of where we were going... lol. Nearly run over some eldery muggles and their dogs close to GZ, we had to wait for them to go out of view then the cache was quickly found. SL TFTC KB
i always seem to be waiting for walkers to pass today, phone is coming in handy
A very quick find as the cache wasn't covered at all...
And the logbook needs a resealable bag as it is going to get wet...

Fourth find of the morning. Its 8:45, should I go to work now or cache more .. silly question. On to another Feb cache in the cool of the morn.
We parked at the north end of the pathway and walked to the 2 caches. No problems finding either of them.
Thanks for the hunt kbinuk2005
