After picking up the virtual nearby, I headed over to this cache. I loved the name. It was a little further into the brush than I would have liked but it was an easy find. Thank you for the smiley and the fun!The day:Today I continued my month long journey from the U.S. along the east coast of Australia!! I was on my way to Canberra for the GeoBash mega and reuniting with the Aussie friends I left behind when I left Adelaide almost a month ago. I thought I'd make it yesterday, but I did not because I decided to head down to the oldest earthcache in the country. I had a grand day beginning with that one (there were KANGAROOS!) and ending in Canberra. Many thanks to all the geocachers who placed and continue to maintain their geocaches for folks like me to find. I know it's not always easy, but know that I appreciate you.

Quick easy drive through to pick this cache up.
 
10-Oct-22
Spending a couple of days in and around ACT with 3 Queenslanders and 1 Tasmanian, then down to the coast for a few days! Weather not great so we have been trying to get caches that are not long walks so we can keep reasonable dry.

Due to this weekend being “Earthcache Day” we were aiming at doing as many Earthcaches as possible and anything else that we thought was worth a stop. Found with Nyssaflutterby, teamnanabombane and wombles&co.

On our way back to Canberra to go our separated ways unfortunately. We couldn’t resist this one but getting to GZ was still a bit wet with many puddles, but Nyssa managed it well in her thongs!

Signed as QTAS to save time and space!

Homebound after spending a week fishing Tangtangra for trout then Bermagui for flathead. Not a lot of fish caught on this trip due to bad weather, made a lot more time for caching. Heading home via Batemans bay then onto the Kings Hwy to end up on the Hume, hoping the flooding doesn't affect to much of my route. Lots of caches targeted along the way.

Quick park and grab here. Interesting property name!

After a fantastic weekend away camping we picked this one up on the way out. Tftc little miss 2 loved her Newfound treasure from inside
 
17-Mar-22
I wasn't really sure whether I'd get away for this caching trip, but in the end I bit the bullet and headed out for a few days through the southern NSW countryside. The roads were a minefield of potholes, fuel prices were off the chart and nearly every cache had some form of water damage from the recent big wet but that didnt detract from the fun.

Thanks to all the CO's for contributing to my caching finds on this 2-day trip. Apologises for not writing something unique about each find. TFTC

So..... the weather is a bit crap for any walks, the grass length suggest staying to the paths..... so today Aquilus1 and I decided to target some numbers....being the newish trail from Captains Flat to Braidwood. We were in lucj as we spotted rainbow unicorns again, and this time we have a tame one with us!

Of course we grabbed a few others in addition to the trail, starting the day with a ladder cache, then onto the power trail, having lunch and with it a delightful bunch of simple caches around Braidwood, culminating with some oldies & larges on the way back to Canberra making it in time for the fabulous event TikvaNZ hosted on the lake.

Thanks to all the CO's for placing and maintaining, we had a nice day out in some pretty nasty weather conditions. We did a ladder cache and three fishing pole caches today....nuts I know.

But, all I remember of the day was the freshness of that beautiful cake at the event.... and driving Aquilus1's car home..... she let me be a grumpy old man I let her be a social butterfly...whats not to like.

With GreyHams we set out for a newer trail between Captains Flat and Braidwood, lovely sunny day, a bit warm but the the cars aircon had that covered and the wind... OMG was it windy, so windy it was crazy! Debris blowing out the trees made their target of the car many times, we battled to just get in and out the car doors! I lost my hat a few times before it was placed safely back in the car and the prickle bushes that the wind blew into you, there was no escaping the long sharp thorns as the wind forced then in deeper!!!

Certainly not the greatest day to be out but we continued on happily, would seem luck was on our side with the Magical Rainbow Unicorn that appeared today! Mostly the caches were straight forward and easily located but we managed a tree climb while swaying in the wind and battled to complete and return 3 fishing pole caches, but we did!

A good variety of caches of all sizes through the day and even managed to collect quite a few nice caches in Braidwood after lunch. Heading back to Canberra for an event we stopped for a few old and large caches, as well as a few that there never seemed to be enough time to stop for previously.

A great day out, weather aside, and TikvaNZ's celebration event was a nice way to end the day by the lake and with absence of the crazy wind, finally! Nice to have a chat and the cake and sausages were great, as was the nice ice cold drinks which I got to enjoy while staying on for a little longer!!!

Thanks for your cache that was part of an enjoyable day! One that has been on my want to stop list for some time so good to tick this off today... love that hint!

Today is the 23rd November 2020 and I managed to find about 32 Caches for the day with my friend Loci612. It was an amazing day of caching. We had 2x DNFs for the day and we also finished two Adventure Labs plus their bonus caches. We spent a total of almost 6 hours caching before I had to head home to do daddy duties. One of the highlights for the day was having a very tasty pie from the bakery in Bungendore. So very yummie. Lots of driving to find caches these days but I love geocaching so much and the friends I have made along the way make it all worthwhile.
I have included one of the Geocaching poems that I have written. I hope that anyone reading it likes it. Thanks for all the caches and sorry for the generic log for this cache but with 32 finds including the 10 Adventure Lab stages it is hard to write a different one for each cache.

I have included my one of a kind Geocache Poem with this log for future readers to enjoy.
Geocache Poem
By DARKSIDEDAN

My endless search goes on and on
Looking for treasures of every kind
Always chasing just one more find
Putting past DNF’s out of my mind
I step out into the world outside,
Seeking what is hidden from me
What size, shape or form will it be?
Only time will tell, I can’t wait to see
Will I find my prize at the end?
I will search in the failing light and cold
Filling with despair having looked everywhere
Where is this thing that gives my life pleasure?

Looking all around from every angle
I read the logs and check the hint
I curse out loud as I walk in circles
Screaming the bloody thing it not there
As time flies by and I fail to see,
Never once stopping to realize
It always been there before my eyes
No need for sorrow, there’s the Geocache.

I am currently writing more detailed logs than usual. This is because of a challenge provided by Project-GC called "The Author" Badge. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to write an average of one hundred words or more in each Found It log. As of 9th November 2020 my average was 160 words per log, which seems close to the 200 words per log target. However given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After 7600 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including yesterday), the average log length is just over 160 words. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task before this year ends. Progress has been better than anticipated.

I can't count the number of times I have driven past this cache, but have never stopped as I am always on a tight schedule either trying to get home from the coast, or trying to get down to the coast!

Today however was a more chill drive, for the purpose of caching alone and heading back to Canberra eventually, so no rush to be at any other cache rich location!

We stopped on the turn-off, had a quick walk through the long grass, and spotted the cache tucked away almost instantly.

Thanks the "cathlud" for replacing the lid of the container too, a very nice gesture! The base of the container is slowly getting sun damaged too, but it is holding up for now.

TFTC GLISS!

My muggle husband and I are staying in Queanbeyan for the Clear Waters event. Today we drove to Batman's Bay to see where his uncle used to live. This was one of the caches that we found on the way back.
The lid of the cache was broken so I replaced it with a spare one that I had.
Thank you for this cache.
