Heading towards Katherine, on our 2nd trip around Australia.
Easy find, very exposed.
Thanks for the cache, Newscat.

Being a micro, I was a bit concerned about how difficult it would be. Shouldn't have worried. It's a black bison tube. Noice... TFTC
This was our 19th cache find in the caching run & we found it at 14:27
So this now makes our total find count 6895.

Another wonderful day in Katherine. The cache raid today was a random start point followed by a string of caches selected, in most cases, by the "next closest" method.
Hmmm caches are usually placed in a spot with some interesting feature. We didn't think a bent and grass encrusted gate was really that interesting!!
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Around 2 metres).
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Thanks Newscat for the hunt today.

Found whilst filling in the time waiting for a new rear window on the car. Cute cache. SL.
On a Trip to the top end for the V8 Race weekend 14 days of driving and racing
took awhile to find this but it was found and signed

After 5 days in Darwin for the V8's and a little sightseeing it was time to head south back to the cold. Of course we grabbed caches on the way. Spent today in the Katherine area before staying the night at the Mataranka Thermal Pool.
Quick find and sign for this one. TFTC.

Garth who ? !!
He is obviously gluten intolerant [:o]
But on my bike ride today I wobbled past the twin stores of Katherine Hardware to find me a cache
Handy to know where they are
At GZ a local business not associated with the hardware trade was providing some muggle traffic.
Somebody had parked a trailer in the street though and it was in the perfect spot to block the muggle view of GZ [^]
Turned out that the cache was a reaaaaalllly easy find, as it was hanging in plain view
I made sure to wrap the restraining wire around the pole a few times so the cache won't be so exposed to muggle eyes

Finally had the time to duck out on a pleasant Sunday afternoon to log this cache. Co-ordinates were a little out but a quick find none the less. TFTC.

Yay! A FTF for me this morning on a run to collect some new caches that appeared. Each song that relates to these caches running through my head as I collect them. TFTC Newscat.
