Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, AgentTracker, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as needing an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache. See the [GCHQ Health Score](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713) process.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Take action to restore the cache or address issues such as correcting the D/T rating.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.
Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this. That is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.
Alternatively:
* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.
In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by AgentTracker and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned, and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

After a good search only located a solitary magnet of the roof
Maybe it’s there somewhere just not visible.

Couldn’t find anything magnetic on metal or ground had a really good look! Still appreciated being in such a beautiful part of the state!
Day 3 Of our WAGB22 adventures: Another day to collect some more smilies, see some beautiful scenery and some little hidden gems only known by the locals and a catch up with fellow geocachers . What a full day . Came back with a previous finder to grab my hue one Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining their caches for others to find , tftc
Chwiliwr and I went for a drive to pick up some of the newly published caches along the South West highway and to do some maintenance on his Harvey cache before returning home via the Forrest Highway doing some caches along the way.
Cache found without problems. Log signed and cache returned as it was found.
Thanks AgentTracker for placing this cache for us to find.

Having a trifecta of finds heading towards the next cache is always a good sign. We parked up in some shade and headed to GZ. TaurusSix spotted the cache really quickly, before I’d even caught up.
We then took in the views from the carpark nearby, and also at the lookout back where we had parked. We counted 12 ships hanging out off shore.

Found this with Geodogs M and R while out and about. The tin was on the ground and magnet didn't seem to work too well so just wedged in a place on the spot . Tftc though guys
On our way up to Harvey for lunch we went the long way and stopped at a few places to find some caches. [^]
We were close to this one so came and had a look at the beach after finding the cache.
Thanks for the cache AgentTracker.

Came off the busy road to have a break and found a nice stretch of beach along here! We initially looked in the wrong spot, than broadened our search and geo-daughter came up trumps, albeit down in the bush, not up. We signed the log and then replaced the cache further up where we expected it was meant to be?!
Thanks placing and maintaining these caches along here!

So glad last find for the day is at this beauty of a beach and at sunset no less whoop whoop W.A. I love you xx
Having a couple of nights in Binningup on the way home from Collie. After lunch we set off for a local cache but it wasn’t to be despite a good look at all possible places to hold a “small” magnetic item. Another time hopefully!
No joy with this one today! . We both had a good look around all 3 possible spots and also in the grass and surrounds hoping to spot something. Even if it was a mint tin noted as a small instead of a micro. Hopefully the CO is local and can check before we leave on Wednesday.
found it on the ground in dirt guessing it’s supposed to be on the warming sign?
Thank you! Went on a mini overnight camping trip to Bunbury and surrounding areas.
Took a small detour to stop here and find the cache.

We're big fans of puns, so think this is a great idea for a series Quickly retrieved, signed and replaced this cache in between cars driving in and out. This is a busy location on a hot Saturday afternoon! TFTC AgentTracker
Hi there AgentTracker.
We tried caching north of Bunbury today & found your cache **"SW PUN SERIES #23"** at 9:26:00 AM .(This makes our find count 23615).
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:** Smiley Badge.
Thank you AgentTracker for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Love a good pun! Unfortunately I could not find this cache and after a looking through a few of the connects it appears it could be missing..
Found on the way home from the WAGB18 weekend. Stopped here to give the kids a chance to strength their legs and get their scooters out., I was unable to sign the logbook as the cache was firmly jammed into place and unable to be shifted. Photographic evidence of the find will be sent to the CO. I suggest future finders bring a ladder and a tool. TFTC
Heading down south for a weekend of caching and to attend WAGB, a stop here and a nice quick find TFTC
Heading back home from a overnight caching stay in Rockingham. This morning I added a few 'sort of' local caches to my list that I missed getting the other day with Rach as she needed to be home to get kids from school.
Haven't been out to Biningup for years considering it's just up the road from home.
Cache was an easy find but not so easy to reach, well I'm only 4ft 8in and even with an extendable tool I couldn't reach. We found some wood and male dimor stood on that and just managed moving cache with tool so that it could be lowered.
Signed log and he wasn't stupid enough to put it back so high. It can be placed a certain way so it's not so visable
TFTC this make it my 3400 find

Thanks for replacing this one & giving us an excuse to revisit this beautiful beach. TFTC
Quick stop and grab but a lovely spot to check out the view from the lookout TFTC
I like a bad pun. While I made sense of this one... wife just found the cache tftc
Yay!! First find for a number of years...how I've missed the excitement if a find! Oops, no pen. Beautiful spot Binningup!
