No response . CO hasn't checked in since Dec 2015. This appears to be missing, maybe time to go.
The Booo's attempted this cache, Our third cache at this park but this time we didn't find it.
Thanks casper73 for placing this cache

No find here today. Checked all the places we expected it to be for d1/t1, but our expected p&g turned into a long search. In the end we chose to head to happier hunting grounds. Tfth xo

This was the only find for the day. Geodad had a rare day off so I asked if he wanted to join me to look for this cache. We found parking almost opposite GZ and after looking at some photos, had a pretty good idea where the cache would be hidden. I waited for the GPS to get to 0m before checking several likely spots. Geodad started at one end whilst I worked on the other. Eventually, Geodad said “Check this one”. There was a lot of cobwebs and leaf litter so I bravely checked without gloves and sure enough, I retrieved the cache. SL. TFTC.

On our tour today we also stopped here and found this nice one;

I thought I had a clue but teddy got the better of me today (assisted by the phone zeroing in a couple of different locations and eventually the neighbour who came out and started gardening!)
TFTC may one day return.

Thanks for this one. I was caught by muggle sneaking up on me just as I found the cache, I left it were was and when asked what I was looking, I said ' an earring I lost here the other night' and she good luck and walked on. Close call. #34.
Over from Adelaide visiting rels in the area. This one had us stumped for a while. Finally viewed the photo in the logs and recreated the scene. Checking in the likely spot finally produced the little cache (magnetic).
Thanks for the cache, casper73
Thanks for the cache, casper73
Fun find thanks! Found with the lil cousin and brother. The photo pointers have now disappeared so we threw that idea out the window
Quick find harder to put back as muggle pulled up rite there...tried these spots lots at other caches and only eva just been attacked by spiders until now at last one is actually in there
This was our first cache found. We jumped up and down with excitement! Such a clever little hidy hole as well. Well done.
#1479 (2 of 2 today)
Early morning caching after dropping Geoson #2 at the station so he can get to work. Then I can grab a cache or two before going to today's World Cup Cricket warm up match Pakistan v England.

Having found a previous DNF, thought I'd try again with this previously unfound cache.
Again, I was hoping to have GZ to myself - who was I kidding. The council was grass cutting, and there were workers everywhere. Even sat in The Hademobile for 10 minutes waiting for the street sweeper to clean the road of all the cut grass.
Finally the coast was clear and I moved back to GZ and started checking the obvious again. Nothing.
Then started a more thorough search in a few likely spots... what's that?
CIH!
Phew! All up a surprisingly quick find.
If there are still two containers here, all the recent finds have been of this one.

#18 went to watch friends play cricket only to find they were madhousedave & crakkachubby went & found cache at the ground. From previous notes there may now be 2 caches on site.
Found with P&Q this warm afternoon. We found this to be a bit of a challenge. Certainly determination in looking paid off. Tftc
Thought this would be an easy one but it had Rite, Q and me searching for a long time. GPS was unclear of GZ so we searched a big area. Finally after reading all the other logs, we found it. The old logs threw us off too as it's not near the lavender;)

May have located the previous cache given I was #18 on the log.
Contact me for further info if required.
Thank you for the cache
I really enjoy this hobby!

Cheched in last night after reports of DNF and found it was gone but have replaced the cache
After DNFing my First to Find attempt at Jungle Jim, thought I'd come here for today's cache.
Know GZ as I've played soccer here many times.
Even so, this one worked out just as well as the last one, except there are far fewer possible hides here. Checked them all, so unless I missed an obvious hide (not impossible) this may be gone.
Great start to caching in 2015 so far...

Came here to watch Geoson play cricket on oval nearby and after the clubs had a minutes silence due to the death of aussie cricketer Phill Hughes, I went in search of this cache. Arrived at GZ to find a Water Board truck parked in the drive way and an front end loader digging a trench a 2 metres from GZ. Ummm! OK, so I did the PAF just to confirm GZ and it was where I suspected it to be. So I approached the foreman and asked him if it was OK for me to get the cache after explaining the the whole thing about Geocaching and even got him to become a member as he was very interested in the idea of the game/hobby. Did the legals and replaced as found. Now that was a close encounter with a muggle.

Walked straight up to it with GPS this time after South Wenty Canal debacle. Again initiall signed log with builders pencil but had CIH in the first spot I tried. Thanks Jasper73
Was here with 2 friends, couldnt find it, had to leave when soccer kids came around.
There have been two other Teddy caches at this park previously. I failed to find Botha them since they both went missing by the time I got to look. We decided to stop today on the way back from Parramatta so that I could log this one before anything happened. I notice it's a new hiding spot now, so hopefully it will be a little more secure. Thanks
This one was a quickie. And thanks for moving it away from the masses of bees.
Last time here I came away smelling of lavender, this time it was a quick wriggle and the cache came out of its hidey hole, lavender free.
Plenty of hints in the COs notes and logs that this made an easy find.
thanks for the cache.

18/10/14. 7:20 AM. Cache #1944. Streak day #118. 2nd of 7 finds this morning, all new caches from last week's many publishes. After "The School Park" at West Pennant Hills, I drove to Parramatta to look for the multi, "Milestones". But reading further, I found out that multi involves a drive all the way to Penrith. So instead, I just drove west as far as Wentworthville, just to get details from the first three markers. Then, I abandoned the rest of Milestones for another day (or days), and turned my attention to all the casper73 caches around here, starting with this one.
My search took a few minutes, but I got a good hint from maruce's log that got me the find in the end. Next, headed over for "Our Garden Park". TFTC }:)

#2741- I must confess that when I saw this one, I just groaned. You see, the initial caches had become something of nemesis caches for bikerbuddy and I- every time we went to find them, they had moved from the original spot or had been muggled. I was so grateful to eventually, after days of smelling like lavender( I hear you saying, things could be worse...),finding them and turning it into a smilies.
So imagine how I felt when they were reincarnated again and.....as a micro!
Today I was alone. I had looked and read the few logs- I had sent for help- which I got- with that I found it. Perhaps this one will be safer than the other- just glad I now have it, smiling at me rather than frowning. bikerbuddy will have to come back and get it himself. Thanks

4th visit. I checked where I'm sure one of the 2 of us had already checked before. There it was, out of sight. It was exactly where the map of the GZ when fully zoomed in had indicated.
It wasn't one of the two but it was the first of many.
It wasn't one of the two but it was the first of many.
Third attempt at this one. This time I had help and the new coordinates. I'd searched here previously anyway, but still no success as yet.
Coordinates changed from:
S 33° 49.484 E 150° 58.218
Coordinates changed to:
S 33° 49.487 E 150° 58.223
Distance from original: 31.1 feet or 9.5 meters.

I accepted the info in the first two logs and moved 10m from GZ. This was an obvious place for a nano and I suspect the colour would be right. However no success at 5am. Not too disappointed as I have just had a FTF and a 2TF in the last 30 minutes on my last day before retirement.
Was tempted earlier to nab this one but figured it ftf would have been long gone but to my surprise after looking at it again at 430pm it was still up for grabs so off i went to a hopefully empty log. When i got there no one was insight, had a little look around and called the CO to confirm GZ. Was only approx 10m out and sent him my reading of the co-ords. Hooray for me the log was empty so a [FTF] dance was done. TFTC

I found nothing near GZ, so seeing Snoopy's note I used a phone-a-friend to get GZ. After moving ten metres it was in the third spot I checked.
