We started at H, now back at the beginning. Onwards to B. Great fenced area to let your dogs off. TFTF SL which was quite full.
Headed down the coast today to pick up some caches and enjoy lunch in Mandurah. The vast majority of the caches found were by the same CO across 3 main series: **TTW SEAVIEW, TTW SEAVIEW SERIES II & TTW SERIES III**. Some excellent hides were found - reflected in the large number of fave point awarded! My thanks to the CO for the great entertainment
After a few tricky camo finds along the coast this was an easy one to ease me into the next series A bold placement but also means a quick cache & dash Replaced where found. No problems here - TFTC

Hi there Tomthewizz.
We found your cache **"TTW Series III - A - Parks and Sporting Grounds"** today. (This makes our find count 23562).
Following through on our passion of walking around parks, lakes and along walking tracks we decided to attempt the caches around the Falcon & Erskine area today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk and the scenery. We found 6 caches today & DNF'd 3.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.
Thank you Tomthewizz for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

As part of streak week, need to get a cache a day. Found this one before heading to do craft. Tftc TTW
I came by this one early in the footy season, but was thwarted by Muggles. Today brings me back again, this time with GeoDaughter who helped with stealth and found the cache. TFTH!
Trying to complete the Park series, found this one quickly with LouLou1992. Very high muggle area so be stealth ️
Found this last night ( forgot to log it) and added another smilie to my map TFTC
DNF didn’t want to spend too much time looking as old mate across the road was out mowing the lawn
Muggle mower kept me at bay for a little while before I snuck in when his back was turned. TFTC Tomthewizz.
Quick find and unique attachment of a bison.
Down in Mandurah for the day clearing up some caches.
TFTC Tomthewizz this is find # 4953 for us.

I was in the area today, and with some free time up my sleeve, I decided that I would have an attempt at finding this cache. This cache took a while too spot, but it was eventually found after re-calculating GZ.
Tomthewizz, I found your cache ‘TTW Series III - A - Parks and Sporting Grounds’ today. It was the fourth find of five finds today and my total count now lies at 980. The cache was found in a good condition, so I added my signature to the log book and I replaced it as I found it. Thank you for the cache, the hide and for bringing me to this location.

A great find after a day in Rockingham for WAGB, out and about with TeamBastholm and TeamOutnabout TFTC
Found with Team Bastholm and Parkacruz while doing some nighttime caching. Quick find but challenging to retrieve.
A bit of night caching with Parkacruz and Team Outnabout.

Out for a big day caching to start off the new year and try to beat our record for most finds in a day! We managed to beat our record and only had 4 DNF's for the whole day, go us. Had a great time exploring this area. awesome series, really enjoyed these finds today. TFTC SL
TFTC! Another BIG days caching with Cravo10 on our standard Thursday Jaunt!
With the weather looking ridiculously hot, with temperatures in the mid-30s we decided to head South to the Area of Mandurah (and surrounds) to take advantage of the cool breeze coming off the ocean.
we've also still got a heap, and I mean a heap of green dots still left on the map down this way, we might have to spend a week down here to get them all cleaned up!
We spent the day collecting park and grabs all around the suburbs of Mandurah which seem to be growing significantly with house after house popping up down here.
We loved the variety of caching down here today with some good camo caches, some nice history and lesson learning caches and some nice simple ones to round out a lovely days caching.
Had problems with a few, but overall a very successful day collecting 30 plus caches including an archived cache in Banjup on the way out today. Thanks to the COs for a lovely day out.

Another Tomthewizz cache and more smiles on our faces.
We found this by torchlight as EB99 put her hand on it to discover the cache. The cache wasn't together as the log had been mashed into the container so he lid wouldn't screw back on. Hint for those new to these containers, carefully & neatly roll the log back up so it fits into the lid...then doing up the container is easy, so is log retrieval for the cacher who finds the cache after you. The log also stays dry making it easier to roll.
Thanks for another enjoyable experience

I thought this would have been within the sport ground area? Where it is is a really ugly place. still TFTC your hides and camo are great.
Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name
A very wet day. Sorry I disturbed a little gecko who had taken shelter from the rain in the cache niche.. TFTC
After spending the last of my school holiday break at a semi swanky hotel in Mandurah, we drove south to log this series before heading back to Perth. A great start to the series here. Thanks Tomthewizz.
Nice to be out with Gypsy Roaming today searching for another Tomthewizz series.

Little geo kid and I set out to finish this series today perfect weather!! Tftc
A very clever hide took longer than it should as I ignored my gut instinct, found on closer inspection of my first checked point
Out on a Sunday cache run with Itskate. On a mission to find 50 geo's in a day. TFTH
Nice mild winters day with not much to do so decided to head off on the geobikes and check out our hides. Great to have geocaching an incentive to get out there and enjoy the outdoors. What a great coastline and environs we have! Checked this one and performed what maintenance necessary. All good and ready for the next cacher.

In the area today, I found this cache with my family (jasenjanine)... This one was a definite favourite! Thanks Tomthewizz
It's the weekend & we have found ourselves in Mandurah & in search of a couple of caches... The area was quite busy this morning & I could not believe it when we pulled up close by & there was a family of muggles just standing on the path metres from GZ
We waited in the car for about 10 minutes before a car pulled up next to us & the family piled into the car... Another 10 minutes later, they headed off so then the kids & I could finally hunt down this treasure DangerMouse09 was ahead of me, so it was he who made the quick find of this well camoed cache!
Thanks Tomthewizz... The last for the day, I'm sure we will finish this series off one day
