Late logging due to being real crook! Took 5 minutes to locate but due to ridiculous use of silver tape it took 20 mins. to undo & reseal. Wasn't happy Jan!!
Has been removed from its tethered place.
Will consider its fate over the weekend.

Just a note to all finders, If the log has not been signed then it has not been found.
This one has been removed from its home, it was secured very well and it still gets removed.
I opened up all my caches the other week to give members a go but this happens, not happy.
Guess what all going back to premium now.

Tricky hide which made us go around and around in circles. Aliooo91 meditated for a bit and then found it straight away. TFTC!
Our last find for the day while we roamed the back streets while our car was being serviced. Luckily no boys about in the middle of the day.

Veni, Vidi, Vici , Scripti. Been working through the "amongst the" series and spied this one on a slight detour into work so decide I had to give it a go. Arrived at GZ and started the search. After wandering around for a few minutes spied the hide making me wonder why I hadn't seen it sooner. Anyway removed a damp log and signed it and replaced back in its hiding place. Being a cold morning there were no muggles to worry about. Gratias pro cache.
Quick find!! TFTC. Log feels a slight bit damp but still able to sign. Was here before but Geokids not fans of dogs not on leads.
This was a quick find made by a snake.
Although the log was damp, able to leave our mark on the log. TFTC

We were heading up to St Agnes to visit relatives after shopping at Marion and as we were early we chose this cache to help kill time. We were surprised to have the park to ourselves and once we were looking from the right direction the cache was quickly spotted. Luckily for us, a group of about 6 kids turned up just as we were replacing the cache.

Nice park, luckily the tree was big enough to hide from muggle kids. Thanks for the cache!!
Second attempt at this one as I got muggled out last time. All quiet here today. A quick find which was great as it had started to rain. TFTC
I wasnt sure how I was going to go finding this one in the dark, especially given the hint. But after using the torch on my phone I finally managed to find something that was not natural.
I had previously tried to find this one but there was a big group of people standing in front of a house facing the park which meant looking for it without raising suspicion would have been impossible.
Cheers for the hide

In the area today to find some caches and this one was on our list. Had a quick look, but had to wait out some muggles in the playground for a more thorough investigation! Ants were all over the ground today making the search even more difficult, but eventually spotted the well camoed hide. TNLN SL Thanks for the cache.
A late log for a great set of caches I found way out the North East side of town - a long way from the sea for a Seascout, but worth the trip for the adventure I had with GeoFriend who knew the secrets of the little streets which took us to some neat caches and locations.
Thanks for the cache and the fun Team IMP666

Why didn't we go caching this morning when it was dry and the sun was shining? We waited till the afternoon when it was raining before we ventured out today. Arriving at GZ we had an idea of what we were looking for and it didn't take long before we had it in hand. Thanks for placing another cache for us to find!
A quick ride-by cache today
My eyes are becoming fine tuned to spotting the caches in this fun series.

A relatively easy find - glad to spot it quickly for a change! No one around except the ubiquitous barking dog over the fence.
Found it. Found an ant's nest too! You should of seen geodaughter and I dance. What a sight we must of been. LOL! SL @ 13.50. TFTC (I think?)
We went out on our journey for part 1 of 2 in the quest for 500 ended up with 8 finds and a good day with lots of great caches.
Tricky one that eluded us for quite a while but thanks to the keen eye of Mr. d&mpearce we managed to put a smiley on this one after getting attacked by ants when signing the log TFTC IMP666

Had to come back to this one twice to sign the log due to a muggle looking on. Very clever.

A very clever well disguised cache, a little camouflage paint missing making it easier to find.

Owl would like to think she is now an expert in these caches, but the disappearing green paint on the cache and the shiny silver bits made finding it much easier than past efforts. Nearby parents were focused on their offspring, rather than Owl and Raven, so retrieval was easy.
Owl didn't notice at first, but this was her 500th traditional cache find!

while Sister Raven was searching one side of the hiding spot, Dr Owl went to the other side and went.....'found it' in three seconds FLAT this is soooo unfair :3

First attempt a few days ago , the GPS had us digging in the wrong place with no success, but many angry ants! We returned tonight after finding another of Imp666's caches, and had a much better result this time! TFTC
Located with JK in the dusk light. Hint was useless to us. The biggest drama was JK's fear of the magpie standing guard. Eventually he moved.
A quick find for my first cache of the day. I had the cache in hand before the GPSr had enough satellites to tell me I was in the right place!
Thanks for the cache Team IMP666.

From Sydney and didn't understand the hint but soon worked it out. Took longer than expected to find and then it clicked. DOH! Not many places to hide a cache here, thanks IMP666
Well perhaps this should be renamed "Amongst the Ants!!!". Ben, from bennie boy, made the find. Then he had to get the ants of himself. Mary from Aussie M & M retrieved the cache, then had to get the ants of herself. Mark from Aussie M & M put the cache back and grumbled that he had the hardest job re the ants. All in all, a memorable visit......TFTH.
Found it nice and easy. No muggles to be seen. Phew!
Thanks Team IMP666 for the cache.

So surprising that a park like this is empty on such a nice day (24°) - suppose everyone's inside, sitting in front of a computer screen (or still recovering from 'last night') [|)].
Quick find. TNLNSL.

The coordinates for this one seemed to be a bit out, so saw that Huurtle had put in a set of coordinates, so when I put them in GPS it took me to where I thought it would have been hidden.
Found quickly then ... also the ants (which previous finders had commented on) found me too.
Quickly signed the log, replaced the cache, and hoped that I had left the ants behind.

Found this cache but was less sucessful with others in the area. Nice park, kids played and had fun. TFTC
Nice day for caching and popped in here on the way to a family lunch. Took longer than it should have as I was looking too high. Scoped with google earth and did from memory. Thanx
I headed out to get a few caches prior to babysitting the grandkids for the rest of the day.
My previous highest caching month was April this year, due to my being at Oz Mega, but hopefully this month I have now beaten that by one or two caches after today's efforts. [^]
Arrived here and there were some children on the nearby playground however as soon as a shower of misty rain arraived too, they disappeared [^]
A relatively quick locus cache, especially as I didn't want to stand in the ants for too long! However for ages afterwards I was brushing ants off of me as GZ was covered in ants

Found this cache while on a caching trip to Adelaide. Found some great caches while there including a 5 difficulty traditional (I'm a Bastard 2), a 4 terrain traditional (Tapleys Bird) and many great hides in great locations through out Adelaide. Thank you Adelaide cachers for planting so many good caches. My wife did ask me to pick a favourite, and I think Besser Block Mail Box would have to be it, by Tamam Shud, Zen and the Art of Geocache Maintenance and the two above would be up there as well.
I did manage to find 250+ caches in the 5 days I had caching in Adelaide, and would like to thank Astro and Freddo for taking me on a night cache on the first day and Astro for giving me a couple of hints on some that I was stuck with.
Let me apologies for the generic log, especially if I have found more than one of your caches.

Found during a caching day in the north-eastern suburbs. Thanks for the cache IMP666!
Nice walk from amongst the frogs. This time I knew what I was looking for and soon had the cache in hand. I left my pen in the car and so left a piece of paint chip (choosing a colour for my front door!) as evidence of my find. TFTC
Decided to tackle more of the "amongst" series caches today. Quick find when one knows what to look for. Thanks Team IMP666.
After struggling in my early caching days with Team IMP666 caches, I must be improving... my second of four for the day! Nice easy hide in the end resulting in a quick find, sign and replace. TFTC Team IMP666!
We made an abortive attempt yesterday when we picked up a video at the nearby DVD rental and pet shop (yes really). The kids were playing footy and there was no way we could be surreptitious. Today was no problem, video returned, I made the easy stroll to find the usual little green ornament. No Dr appointment required for me (though there is one a couple of doors down from the video shop).
GOT IT - well it would be a DNF it we had not secured the find.

Out with Mrs flipper for a afternoon caching, no one around was able to make a quick find on this one, we can see a pattern to these hides narrowing down our search options TFTC

Nice and quiet over lunch, so a nice quick find, and a good intro for the rest of the series that I did today
A pleasant little area, although it's a shame a few new trees have been destroyed.

We were lucky enough to find a place to park the caravan very close to our favourite frog's place and so Bruce was able to join Mr Clear Skies and the Frog himself for their Tuesday night out amongst the caches. We had a most enjoyable night and this was one of the caches we targetted and found.
Thanks to Team IMP666 for the cache.

Quickest find of the evening. There is only one spot at GZ and it is just a matter of looking. Found by Bruce.
Found amongst a couple of lads tonight. Appropriate!
