After a barking dog greeted us from the old school next door where people must be living Almawoody went to the most obvious place and found the container! All nice and dry. Another good old find at a hall that I bet could tell a few stories of past parties here. Streak day 181 (almost at 6mths) and a trad dot day signed off. I have put all these old archived caches in a list and am going to make it my mission to check them all out over this summer. I will add notes to the ones we cant find as a future reference to other keen hunters so they can pass them by.

I lived in the school house (that has since been removed) from 1988-1991. My mother taught here and was then the principal at the school. So sad to see the school closed.

This place reminds me of taking grey squirrel tails in to the village to get the 1shilling bounty when I was a youngster. We did manage to eradicate them from the island which is one of the few places in the UK which still has red squirrels. TFT memories and the cache.

The day was cold and cloudy but not raining, so I went hunting for some south Taranaki caches. I'd been here looking for this one before, but was stymied by a couple of muggles cleaning their horses down. It was all clear this time, and soon had the log signed.

Love visiting these little rural halls. So neat to see them still being used and maintained when some (such as this one) are so old.
Quick find. TFTC.
 
10-Apr-13
I pulled up to find another car (empty) parked in front of the hall. Another cacher or a muggle? It made me nervous so I didn't want to hang around. After reading the hint I crept around the hall for a quick easy find. I signed the log and was back in my car without seeing anyone. Wheww. If it was another cacher they are most definitely lost - call in the search party. If it was a muggle I'm glad I didn't have to explain myself to them. TFTC Smile
