Again this one was found on the ground, but it had quite a dent in it, and my hubbie thinks that it has probably been run over by a lawn mower as we couldn't open it and it was out in the open, not close to the fence at all. I will message the c/o a little more info,... TFTC Smile

Certainly not hanging any more - more like a resting place. tftc
 
24-Jul-17
Okay, that was _not_ what I expected when I read "bison", but I found it anyway.

It's not hanging around anymore, however...

The travelling fox is happy =^,^=

Checked cache after recent DNF - cache is safely tucked behind the sign. Added a fresh log & had a lovely natter to one of the community gardeners who knows about the hide. He admitted he enjoys helping people find the cache, so look out for him if you need an extra hint Smile

Wandered over to find this one but had to give it a miss as it was being guarded by a large dog. On our way back the dog had moved on so made a quick find and carried on our way.
 
23-Dec-16
not exactly behind the sign but easy nonetheless.
 
21-Dec-16

Thanks to the CO's for the hides. Cheers.
 
03-Dec-16
An easy go, can scout the sign.. I mean get some ideas for the garden.. before making a move. I thought I might have a time of it but the cricket team had moved on, just someone roughing up the green practicing his golf swings!
 
03-Dec-16
Found it!

The log was damp so I dried it. The bison wasn't though so it should remain dry.

Smile Found ... Mrs McMike2012 & I decided that we would venture down Cambridge way to see what the Te Awa Cycle Trail was like ... we had biked from Cambridge to Lake Karapiro & back ... thought it would be rude not to to pick up a couple of caches on our travels ... this being the 7th & last for the day ... it was easily found & quickly replaced, even with an old guy digging in the allotment only 5 or 6 metres away ... TN:LN:SL ... TFTC ... #1,397 for us.

Quick easy find and i love the area. Smile logbook needs replacing, i had to sign in the last available space i could find on it. Apologies. TFTC.
 
04-May-16
Excellent place for a cache. The spider who had built a large web next to it didn't appreciate me though. The feeling was mutual! It needs a new log book.
 
01-May-16
Nice quick find with miss Drysdale.
 
23-Apr-16
Lots of dogs out enjoying the park. We are enjoying discovering Cambridge and funding caches along the way. TFTC Smile

20-Mar-16
#5 for the day. Read the clues I had with me. Had my cycling companion with me. It was a quick and easy find. Being a learner I am getting use to the different types of caches.Smile
 
20-Mar-16
Again NZPatoto got me on a bike to do the Leamington Area. #5 of 8 today. NZPatoto found. I think I now know what NZPatoto is up to. She asks me to confirm the coordinates meanwhile she’s searching to make the find. Anyway it doesn’t matter who finds it first, or does it? It's not a competition, or is it? Really cute little canister. Big Grin
