Out for a day in Richmond, this one is another smiley for the day.
CUT AND PASTE SECTION
Streak day 62
Below is a blurb about us.
We are trying to get a badge from Project-GC for writing found log files of 100 words or more. Once we get this badge we will stop writing this. We are also trying to
get badges for adding photos to our found logs.
We Started caching in December 2019 and by January 2020 we were hooked. As we are on the road full time (living in a caravan), caching fits in well with this lifestyle.
It is taking us to places that we would normally not have gone.
When we move to a new place we also look at what caches are in the area and how many days we will need to be there to get the caches we want.

I was out today on a caching run around the area visiting Nth Richmond Glossodia,Freemans Reach and up to Kurrajong Heights.
I had an excellent day caching out here finding almost all that I searched for,
Today was extremely warm and dry with a thick smoke haze blanketing throughout however this didnt dampen the day in the slightest,
It was a huge day with many finds so a big thank you to all the COs for placing their enjoyable hides,I do apologies for my generic logs.
Thanks for the cache

I was on the hunt today for some caches to try and complete the Mystery At The Museum promotion. I successfully found this cache and added to my tally. Thanks to all the COs for placing their caches for me to find.

OCW Sensible Shoes and Shoes Junior. Quick find by Dad. Signed as Shoes x3. TFTC
Mr S zoomed in on this one. Saphire collected. Peaceful here, even with all the traffic going by.
Out to do a bit of caching with goingplaces2 on a beautiful day. Found what we wanted, with no muggle problem. Cache retrieved, log signed, all replaced, job done! TFTC.
I found this cache in the open on the ground. I re-hid where I hope it should be. TFTC ADAcache.
I'm heading over the mountains this afternoon as I have meetings in Lithgow and Portland tomorrow morning and figured that driving up today was better than having to leave home at 5am tomorrow. Doing so also allowed me to take a few random geo-breaks along the way. This was one of them.
I headed through the graveyard to GZ where I saw a very likely hiding spot ... but alas, nothing was there. Luckily though, I spotted a familiar cache container on the ground, which I returned to where I presume it normally resides after adding my name to the visitor book.
Thanks for the hide and for bringing me to another colonial graveyard in this part of the world.

Mary enjoyed exploring the cemetery, but we had no luck with the cache. Our thanks anyway to ADAcache.

TFTC! No need to go into the graveyard at all, quick park and find thanks to the keen eye of mbyrne26
Super hot day and we cached between 6pm and 9pm which was more bearable. This was one we targetted and were able to find. Thanks to ADAcache for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Hunted around and then went on the defence for a success bullet. Many thanks to CO **ADAcache** for establishing and maintaining this cache.
Have driven past here a lot but never stopped in. Sats were all over the place but finally had cache in hand. Nice final resting spot.

Found on a family caching day with Blundo Busters and thereimer. Loved walking around the historic graveyard. So much history. Church is now a private residence. Thanks for the cache ADAcache
Enjoyed coming to this one, as I've been in this house / church many times. Not sure where karennicole and blundobusters were headed but I made the find, we signed returned and continued on our way. TFTC adacache

After having completed my loop around Wilberforce and Glossodia, East Kurrajong, Kurmond and Back to to North Richmond with 16 out of 18 caches found yesterday. I couldn't get this cache yesterday as a caretaker was maintaining the cemetery andy o have me looking around would have been to obvious.
Today I had the place to myself. As I made my way towards GZ the phone signal was a little unsettled.
Once I saw a likely hiding place the cache was soon in hand. Hmm second cemetery in two days.
Find: 357
2nd of 2 finds for today
0 DNFs for today
Cache/Log: Both in good condition.
Log is less than 50% full

That was a tough drive, cruising past countless roadside caches as we transit through the area bound for Bathurst today. We quite enjoy old graveyards, so added this to the list. We parked up the road, maybe 80m from GZ, not sure if better parking is to be found elsewhere, we grab what we can get in Sydney....
Cache was found quickly at GZ, and we continued our journey. Thanks ADAcache.

With a day trip to Richmond we had time to do a few caches on the way home.
Wandered to GZ and JB was the one who made a quick find and was pleased with herself. Good way to get back into it.

#1215 had an hour to spare before physio at Marsden Park so headed here parked halfway between the Collector Card cache near Colo High but there were a couple of boys sitting near GZ smoking so decided to walk down to this cache. It was a quick find in the first place I looked. Signed the log and replaced as found
Signed the log and replaced as found. Thanks for the cache

This Geocache was pretty easy, WARNING DONT TOUCH GRAVES! Watch out for muggles down at the back
The three of us began our trip to Parkes, and started with this one. We're a little worried that it hadn't been found since November, but can confirm after a quick find that it's still in place. Tftc!
Love the old historic graveyards. QEF with HennyGeo. Here from Canada on holidays in beautiful Australia . TFTC
Missed the entrance to the cemetery with a car sitting on my tail and had to utilise the next driveway to turn around. Unfortunately stuck there for a while caught in staff traffic leaving Fairfax Media (had no idea there were offices out here). As for the cache, eventually found in an obvious spot that took longer than it should have. After a similar bouncy arrow at another Colonial Graveyard hide, wasn’t too surprised that a search may also need to be expanded here. Log sheet indeed full as noted by others so did the right thing and added a blank piece of paper, at least until CO can action a replacement.
Pushing to make 1000 finds by next Saturday I travelled from Greystanes today to hope bag a good number. Thank to all the CO for hiding these for me to find. Nice old cemetery and quick find.
Nice and easy find by dragonfly damsel, di1510, green machine, liger3, monkey1404 and bear1504
The best part about this is it gets you out about and seeing places you wouldnt normally.
Wow that was very cool. Great spot. Didn't sign as didn't have a pen with us. Tftc
Second attempt after looking for an hour the first time.
Excellent hide.
Only spotted it when my friend was going to jump the barbed wire fence!

TFTC. After having a look around the cemetery at some of the old graves I had the cache in hand in no time.
