Nice easy find doing the 'BLE...' Series. TFTC D

Our last cache on Easter Sunday, as the GPS was getting skippy and Pickled Ginger was enjoying driving the road too much to do too much stopping! Easy find, but this cache could do with a little TLC as there was about an inch of water in it when we arrived. Emptied it out, and still managed to sign log, but it is very wet in there. TN, but left bean. Thanks for the cache. Happy Easter!

As per log, contents need to be dried out. Everything soaked, but log still useable. Sorry we didn't have time to dry it out.

A njce quick find at 0905.

Found on The Joy of SECS weekend along with Astro, Freddo, four-fun & Team Waldron.
Great spot, cool cache.
TFTC jgc3

Cache found on the Joy of SECS tour with four-fun, Freddo, thewhitedoggang and Team Waldron. There were a stack of boxes to find so we pushed on. We even had a quick round of Mountopoly and a couple of Powertrails to add to the fun. The weather was cool and sometimes icy so wet boots were the order of the day.


Thanks to jgc3 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

A 3 day caching expedition with Freddo, Astro, WhiteDogGang an Four Fun.

Apologies for the generic log but we did a few trails and some of the Mountopoly series. We also did most of the BLE series.

The mozzies were full on at times and it rained most of the first day.

This cache was found on the Joy of SECS Tour 2013. Thanks for the cache. Our group had a lot of fun this weekend. We were in a rush today and there was more caches to find. Woot.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This cache was found using a Garmin Montana 650t. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

Found when on 'The Joy of SECS' tour/assault along with Freddo, Astro, Team Waldron & White Dog Gang. Much fun was had, very wet boots were experienced and many caches were found including this one!
Cheers & TFTC [^]

Thanks for the cache

Replaced Cache and new log book.

All fixed ready to go again.

All fixed ready to go again.

Found but everything very wet

Found it

We were out with Super Pop collecting some of the BLE caches, we were planning getting off the beaten track later today so we were prepared but did not need to be.
We found the container and also the first damp log of the day which is quite good considering the recent rains.
Once more our thanks jgc3

After a trail bike ride out of Port Mac finished a little earlier than expected I took the opportunity to hunt a few caches on the way home or almost on the way home.
This one was a little damp and will need some love soon.

Tftc found with skytrol, on an arvo/nite out caching

Found with whitey84 TFTC

Spotted my first wallaby for the day, these guys and girls seem to be quite curious, they dont run off to far. Bit off GZ for me but it could be these big grey clouds above playing games with me, the container was not closed properly, log book a little damp but it should dry out just nicely. TFTC

what a place T silverfern charm L Butterfly SL TFTC

Another nice quick find. Thanks for the cache.

#3582 Not being from around these parts we're not sure how this track is normally however today it was very sandy which was quite deep in places .....we were certainly thankful for having a 4WD today (there always seems to be 2WD owners who can manage themselves through such places ). Although a well placed cache, we found it a little exposed when we arrived so tried to find some more natural camo to cover. The cache is still in good condition. Thanks once again jgc3 for the fun [^]

Found while attending the Big Little Event. After packing up we thought we'd get this last lot before leaving Nelson. A quick grab by GeoMum. It was nice and quiet no one around at all. TFTC jgc3

Monday at BLE and after packing up, Dennisc52 and I left the campsite and parked his car. Well, mine was already dusty and dirty and his was still clean

Dennisc52 and I managed to achieve locus cache 25 times before we parted company and took separate routes back to Adelaide.

However I hung around Nelson for a bit longer and so, by the time that I stopped at Millicent for the night, I had gathered up another 19 locus cache smileys (with 1 DNF ), making this a 45 cache day [^]

I apologise that I cannot remember all of these caches individually however I did love the names for them This road was tad more concerning than the last road and even more so since I had no phone reception and no one knew where I was So I drove carefully and kept my speed up through the sand traps so that I would make it out the otherside and ensured that anywhere I parked was solid ground [^]

Found this one during a quick afternoon run before the BLE award and presentation night! Very peaceful out here! Everyone must have picked up these caches already because we saw no one else on the hunt! A great drive and relaxing time to enjoy the beautiful scenery!

I have been off the beaten track many times.
Believe me it isn't all it is cracked up to be [:o]
Off the beaten track is stressful, hardwork, dirty and tough.
But when it is all over you look back at it with a sense of satisfaction and pride [^]
The whole point of going off the beaten track is to experience something out of your comfort zone and have memories you will actually remember for the rest of your life

Somehow I don't think this cache will be remembered
It just wasn't far enough off the beaten track !!
But a cache find is a cache found
So a smilie will live on somewhere in the geocaching.com website to remind me of BLE10

TFTC.

PS: Actually I probably will remember this cache now that I have written a cache log about it [:o]
They say the best way to learn for an exam is to copy the text books in your own handwriting.
It worked for me, which is why I probably remember all my cache finds so well, through writing about them

Enjoying another day with Sheltz1 and 2 geokids at the Big Little Event

Found while attending The Big Little Event with Poppet11 and geokids.

Found this neat cache during BIG little EVENT. Our thanks go out to all involved in the event and to all who have placed caches for the event.
Our apologize for the late logs, and the boilplate plate logs.
Due to events happening in our lives just after the event, the logging had to be put on hold until now.
We had a fantastic time, met some new caches and even bumped into a few old ones from afar.
Many, many thanks to all involved.

One of many as a part of the BLE. Many thanks for this one and the others also. Found with Debs22 and MurchUnearthers. TFTCes

B L E - “Boxes Left Everywhere” We couldn’t search for them in numerical order, but that’s OK . The diversity of scenery, some quirky hides and catching up with fellow cachers along the trail made it a most enjoyable series. The time and effort given to create this series for other cachers to enjoy is to be commended.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt jgc3.

1903rd cache found by WazzaAndWenches. Log signed at 10:13Hrs.

We're in Nelson for the Big Little Event over the weekend and the Wenches are sleeping in while I drive around the countryside chasing caches (and a few Munzees).

Like many others, we had a bit of trouble finding this cache and eventually worked out it was about 10m from the indicated GZ.

Thank you jgc3 for the pleasant drive in the bush to knock over most of this series of caches.

Found as part of the Big Little Event. Found with debs22 and moorooducrobbos. Took racecar 43 TB.

Travelled to the local area for the big little event and hence logging as many caches as possible in the next few days.
Day 2 and cache 21.
