[Blue]# 12871[/Blue] Found on the way back from our 2015 Winter escape to Qld.
Another perfect winter day in Port Macquarie. Wink
Visited this one with the CO watching on to do a maintenance check.
And it is a very good and very safe hide as well.
Found the log book needs repair and logged it before it is replaced.
Cheers from down south in Wagga Wagga.
Thanks for the cache DiMorgan,

This was the first day of our holiday in Port Macquarie. We were taking it easy after our long drive here and treated today mostly as a rest day, particularly given it was raining in the morning and we don't enjoy getting wet when we cache. As the weather began to clear up in the afternoon, we ventured out for a few finds.

Thank you for having placed the cache DiMorgan Cool

I couldn't believed I lived so close and hadn't been to find this. After the geofamily had been to visit, I decided it was time to venture out & make this find. Had a short search around GZ before making this clever find. Thanks DiMorgan for a great cache.
 
30-Mar-15
This one had us scratching our heads to start with. The GPS had us jumping about but the previous logs helped to point us in the right direction. Found after a short search. Thanks DiMorgan for a memorable cache & all your efforts.
 
26-Mar-15
Found it with bobbies girl. Took a while. Fantastic camouflage, very clever. TFTC
 
25-Mar-15
Yep, I knew this one was not going to be easy. We wandered around the trees for a while, found a few promising locations but eventually stumbled upon the right one. Very clever hide, typical of the DiMorgan hides - just love the imagination and ingenuity. Favourite point for the hide. Thanks for bringing me to another part of Port that I never knew was here.
 
14-Feb-15
had a look for this one while up at the north coast invasion, but no luck today. plan on taking some more time next time I'm up this way as the owner did confirm it was there...

Thanks anyway
 
14-Feb-15
I am up in Port for the GeocachingNSW Invasion weekend and wanted to grab a few about town with Smurfyguy. A DNF for us today. We did find a spot that would house a cache and also a pen lying on the ground. Reading previous logs, perhaps we should have searched a little harder for this one as it may have been more of a tricky hide than first thought. Thanks anyway DiMorgan. It's a lovely spot to come too.
 
14-Feb-15
Came up for the Mid North Coast invasion events the weekend.
Got to GZ and found that the area had been used as a toilet. Also found a pen on the ground. Soon found the cache. Hope the tree hasn't been damaged by the screws. No fav point.
Thanks DiMorgan.
 
14-Feb-15
A little elusive today, did I have the right tree?
 
14-Feb-15
After catching up with the CO and another DNF on this today we went to check up on this one as the GCNSW Invasion was in town. I had chosen the wrong tree to check out and when pointed in the right direction - there it was, so very well camouflaged anyone could miss it.

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there DiMorgan. We found your cache "Paperbark" at 10:08:00 AM today,. This cache makes our find count 9875.
[Blue]
We are trying to log at least one cache every day, so we can add to our streak of "Most Consecutive Days Cached", which we started on New Years Day 2014. Our route today took us past some really wonderful & scenic locations.

We spent a little time checking out the other "double" before coming up with the goods.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Teamdfl and I are heading south to the Port Macquarie region for a 4 day week-end of caching. Cool
Today was day 4 for caching ... and our last. Sad
But we do have time for a few more finds this morning before making our way north. [^]
Now this one is clever. Loved it. Big Grin
Thanks for the cache.
 
20-Oct-14
This is day four of a trip to the area with Brother Colin. We had several challenge caches we wanted to complete and I think the trip has been quite successful.

We were all packed up and making our leisurely way home now. We decided to visit some local caches with favourite points as we left town.

Some of the caches we did were certainly deserving of the favourite points they received. This was one of them. A well crafted hide indeed. Another favourite point from me Big Grin
 
19-Oct-14
Found It - [^] - Finally had the chance to come back, and was well worth the visit, Seen a Koala Big Grin had a good walk & found a cache Smile. TFTC, these are my favorite cache's, well camo'd and well thought out. Smile Than you DIMorgan, I think this deserves a favorite point.

Hi
 
02-Dec-13
Couldn't find it Sad
I did look in all the obvious places and retreated , beaten in the end. Then on the way home I thought more about typical Dimorgan caches and realised I was probably closer to it than I thought. Just not enough time to think about it. Next time for sure.
Thanks for bringing me to this lovely location Dimorgan.
 
24-Nov-13
Out with Footyfanatics in Port on holidays. Now we have discovered your caches I love them. Have to try and do some more before leaving. TFTC. Favourite point from me.

Out caching in this beautiful area around Port Macquarie and this was one of the caches we targetted and found. We were keen to do some Di Morgan caches as we had met them up the coast in Bundaberg and it was great to be in their part of Australia. Fabulous camo and certainly deserves a fav point.
Thanks to DiMorgan.
