Decided to grab a few caches while I was in the area today. This was a nice easy one, but had to wait a few minutes for some muggles to leave. TFTC.
Found at 15:00. No probs with this one. On a family walk with geofamily and geohound on a blisteringly hot afternoon. Bit of renovation going on in the area but no hindrance to the cache or walk. Thanks.
Found with geosister after a quick search!! Super tiny, bring tweezers for log! Awesome tftc!!
A great find from myself on our way back to the car this morning. Although I did find it on the ground and placed it back to the soot I think it may have come from. We also signed the new log. TFTC
after my failed attempted late last year it great to be able to finally mark this one with a smile

Out caching with T_Samson to help him find this cache. Found it quickly, much to his dismay! Nice hide, tftc
A really interesting, hidden away spot for a cache. No idea what the rusty stuff is but it would look great in my garden.

A very early start today so decided to grab an early morning cache.
Was still dark when I cruised by which didn't help matters but I let my fingers do the walking and came up with the goods.
Didn't get a chance to look around.
Signed the log and continued on my way to the airport.

Jumped on the treadly today to track down some unfound caches in the area.
Been here once before, thought I had logged DNF. This time it was a relatively quick find with more experienced cacher eyes. Log is getting full.

I had an appointment at the Pancake-factory (=Breastclinic!) and thought I needed a little reward after.
This was a nice quick find, there are not that many hiding spots on a piece of rust like this.

Headed off late today, to grab a few caches.
GZ was spot on for our GPS, and after a quick look, the tricky little cache was located.
Thanks for the cache, Allied Pranksters.

A quick find while on the way home from South Perth. The cache is definitely there (coz I SL), so those who have missed out should look again. A nice spot which I will return to with my bike for a bit of a ride about. I'm not sure what the machinery is, but suspect that it was a grass cutter. Thanks for the cache.
We enjoyed or visit and inspection of this collection of bits. I think the SCH has nailed their original intended use. No mugglers around this afternoon so we managed a quick find.

Took two of us and one geodog 10 minutes to find which is much much longer than we should have needed! TFTC!
Teamed up with urch for an afternoon's caching. Weren't sure which direction to head off to, but our quest brought us over this way. Have been meaning to get up and find this one since it was first published. Missed it on the first pass, and then on the second. But persistence paid off eventually. Thanks Allied Pranksters
On the third going over of every nook and cranny of all the rusty bits the little blighter was spotted... or actually felt.
Thanks for the cache Allied Pranksters

This nasty bastard gave us a bit of a headache, but roughly after ten minutes managed to find it.
Out for a bike ride with the kids while the wife was at work today, we parked nearby and unloaded the bikes before realizing how close this one was.
A AP hide, small nano on metal.. Ok assume the positions, The kids and I utilized our grid search and found it in a couple of minutes.

While working in the area I decided to scout this one out, wow another tricky AP hide. This took a lot longer than it should, but eventually the beasty was found, very sneaky indeed.... SL TFTC AP
Found it! How sneaky! Almost gave up. It looks like an old hoeing tool to turn over soil to cultivate.
Four pairs of eyes scrutinising every piece of rusty metal and we almost gave up. I took one last look and spotted the sneaky nano - even though I thought I'd looked there before. Still we got the smiley so happiness all around.
Found it, eventually, with richlink. We were just about to call time when Mrs ricklink spotted it where we has all looked previously, Thanks AP.
Geodaughter jumped out the car and had the cache found before i even got out...TFTC Allied Pranksters
Out on my bike for a ride more to find some caches hit GZ looking everywhere but could not find, double check of everything still no luck was going to give up took two steps back to my bike turned back and looked in discust cause I couldn't find it and couldn't believe my eyes found it! TFTC!!!!
After training at Cannington Leisureplex I picked up some caches that have appeared since I last track through this area. The old machinery looks like an old rake and hay mower to me.
Thanks Allied Pranksters.
Thanks Allied Pranksters.
Good one - loved old thing - remind me of my childhood... Signed the log at 14:30 Thanks AP.
Found, well Monf found it. Looked on our way down to Keego-Chills cache. This was my 4th attempt!! Phoned a friend but he hadn't found. So moved on and on our return back to the car found. One of the workers questioned us and we explained what we were doing, she is a cacher but not a Premium member so didn't know there was a cache there. Not sure why I found it so hard. TFTH Amstradkid
Went down for another look for this one, when we went before we must have spent close to 30-40 minutes looking over every mm of these items!!! Took Geo Teen and he had it within 2!!! Very annoying - but YAY!!! lol

Great name for the cache. Pieces started flaking off as soon as I touched the objects so I used my eyes until I eventually found the correct angle to spot the nano. Thanks Allied Pranksters.
Thought this might be my 1001 but oh no! Take the dogs on this blocked off road many times each week. Never looked or expected a cache was here. Couldn't find. Plenty of other times to take a look. Ill be back.
Haved passed this one a thousand times...today I stopped by on a ride south...soon spotted familioar shape...thanks again Allied Pranksters
[:(!] Had a couple of hours to spare after tea, so the geowife and I decided to pickup a couple of caches, on our return to the car park after picking up three caches along the river, after several minutes we had the cache in hand.
The rusty machinery being a grass cutter and a small three row four plong plough.

It was a bit of a hot afternoon, but I've been meaning to do the caches in this park for quite some time, so I parked under the "authorised parking only" sign... and started with this cache first.
The machinery is very interesting but I have no idea what any of it does, although I did notice a chain (like a bike chain) on one piece.
After systematically feeling my way around I soon had the cache in hand. My pen was having some disagreement with me about putting ink on the paper, but I think I managed to scribble enough of my name there.
Thanks for the cache Allied Pranksters!

Yep, it's still there. The cap seal is broken and will need maintenance before winter. Didn't know this spot was here....nice little walk trail. TFTC
Oh Dear...a DNF for us, we searched high and low and couldn't find it at all. Will try again another day. I am worried that maybe its been knocked off and is in amongst the leaves

Woohoo the wife text me and told me this had been released so grab the geokid and off we went for a FTF at 3.10pm, got sort of seen by muggle so made it look like we were trying to work out what the machinery was for the child and he told us he thinks its an old hay rake thats all she wrote tftc
