Spent a pleasant few early morning hours in the area completing two active and one archived series. A lovely walk through the area and all caches found.
TFTC Selbooba this is find # 7742 for us.

Over this way with m4yb doing the other nice and easy series in the area and had heard about these, so grabbed them on the lovely walk around the area.

A beautiful winter's day, picked up megawat60 from the train to do this archived series as well as the new one.
Another quick find, and he is getting good at opening them. TFTC!

Out and about with B12 to find this cache, now getting the chance to log the find online TFTH TFTC
Bumped into some friendly cachers along the way doing another series when they informed us of an archived series that use to be here so uploaded into onto the phone and boom there it was!! Was great to see it all pretty much in good condition albeit a few tough ones to open!! Sad to see this great series archived!!

I was in the area grabbing some newly published caches and decided to double dip and grab the archived ones while I was here. A nice quick find here but opening it was a whole different story. This one was sealed shut and very difficult to open, it was almost the death of me [:p] It took a lot of paitence and the right tool but slowly I managed to prise this one open. Barnzy12 is lucky he followed just after me and I had already done all the hard yards for him. TFTC Selbooba
Had a spare couple of hours today so after heading into the city to buy a present I decided to check my emails and have seen that I missed a bunch of notifications an hour previous so loaded up the bunch of them by kyzabra and headed off, when I got to GZ and checked the map I remembered seeing a few archived caches along this route so loaded them into the Phone and made my way around the regional park collecting both series of caches, special thanks to Kyzabra for the new series and discovering the old caches, which are in pretty decent shape of you had rough hands to get them open, next cacher bring a butter knife to help get the caches opened, which I just did with some brute force.
I met up with some other cachers at the series which was nice to chat to you all.
After completing the loop track I was tired and went home for a sleep before Cravo rang and asked if I wanted to grab the new batch of SWH caches to which I agreed. Good day out with nearly twenty finds. Thanks to all the COs

Woke up early this morning and headed out for a walk. i missed this series when it was active so thought I may as well check to see if it was still out there.
The cache is still in place and clue was noted.
I can't wait to catch up with everyone again at

Container very hard to open due to rust. Also you may want to look at #1 and #6 due to the same problem. cheers TTW
Another nicely placed hide. The cache container is totally rusted but we managed to open it with a tool.SL. TFTC Selbooba
Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name
We'd left it a bit late in the day and it's very hot now, so we decided to do this short circuit. We could not open the container, but luckily found a piece of strip metal that was able to lever the lid off. TFTC.
A great little series which I rode with MDV during a weekend away. The orb tins are rusting badly and it's a struggle to open them without a tool. Thanks for the caches Selbooba.
Enjoyed walking this circuit on a lovely afternoon, with well themed caches to break up the journey. All - bar one - were easily spotted. Bit tricky to extract the lid - I think they are getting a bit rusty, but they eventually separated, signed log, made a note of the number, then off to the next one.
Thanks for the cache Selbooda.

Geo hubby & I decided to complete this series this afternoon as it looked like it was going to stay fine for a few hours. It rained briefly early on but it was easy to shelter under some trees. An enjoyable walk in the bush and swampy area though quite muddy in a couple of spots so we had to walk in the reeds. We grabbed the required numbers along the way enabling us to find the mystery cache at the end. TFT series Selooba
Out with the Better Half on a walk around the area.
Cache found without problems.
Thanks Selbooba for the cache.

Even though the weather was a bit foul today we decided to head here and grab these caches . We were lucky to avoid the showers and all caches were found easily due to spot on coordinates. Geoson loved the containers and the theme It took us about an hour to make our way around this loop and we enjoyed it very much. TFTC and series Selbooba
Went for a walk to find these caches with my family (jasenjanine), OOH YEH, Kristybelle & Benwas1992... I had fun finding this cache! Thanks Selbooba
We are enjoying our walk this morning & the kids are having a great time watching the trains speed by as we head to the next cache Another find for the kids after being pointed in the right direction by OOH YEH... TFTC Selbooba [^]
Part of this series is only about 1K from my home. I saw that it was published in the early hours of the morning. So I set my alarm, hoping to seek a FTF bright & early. To wake & see that 2 caching teams had been & gone while I slept Later on in the day Mistraluna & myself set out to do this series. It was a pleasant walk and nice for us to catch up on the way. I loved the novel containers - well done. SL. Clue obtained . TFTC Selbooba & onto the next one
Came up to visit Luna Maya today after being away for a couple of weeks. She said she wasn't going caching at all this weekend, things she had to get done, blah, blah, blah. I don't think I was there more that 10 minutes before she asked if I wanted to go out and grab a few caches. No such thing as will-power when the two us get together, lol.
Enjoyed the walk, and loved the theme. Thanks Selbooba

Joint *FTF* with Maccasreps. Saw this series published just after midnight when I had finished logging the previous day's caching and was ready to go to bed ... to go or not go? I decided to go. Arrived at the parking spot at about 1:20am just in time to see the Maccasreps team getting out of their car, so I was a minute or two behind them, but caught up at the first cache. We had a bit of fun walking around the park and completed this well put together series in good time and in good company.
Signed the log at about 1:41am. Thanks for the hide Selbooba

I was sound asleep when these caches got published so when i got up at 6 am i checked the emails and decided then that i wouldnt go to where i was going to go caching i would do this series instead. At 8 am janine from jasenjanine messaged me to see what i was up to so so we decided to team up with Kristybelle and Ben-was-1992 and do the series together. We met at the suggested parking area and all set off with Dandermouse09 and little Tyler as well. Some of the tracks were a bit sandy and muddy and other parts of the track were nice and hard to walk on. All the caches were nice easy finds and dangermouse09 and Tyler took it in turns at each cache to make the find and replace the cache. I bribed the kids with lollies and little Tyler walked the whole series except the last 100 metres where he got picked up. We grabbed all the required info on the way round to find the final.

Stayed at OOH YEHS house after taking part in The Stampede yesterday up at wooroloo, was feeling like an 80 year old this morning but mum asked if we could change her original caching plans to do this new series and turns out jasenjanine wanted to do it to so we all met up at the parking coords, was pretty much an easy walk the whole way with a few sandy and muddy tracks but the kids walked the whole way and took turns finding all the caches with a couple of bribes of lollies from OOHYEH hahaha OOHYEH and jasenjanine wrote down all the info we needed to get to the final TFTC

Joint FTF for these ones with Firnsey (spelling?). The series was found somewhere between 1:20am and 2:20am, the exact times of each cache escape me! Great fun in a nice spot. Thanks for the series.
