Another DNF to the list. A check may be in order.

out on a matinence run this afternoon and this cache is missing and we will not be replacing

No luck after a good long search. 2nd DNF of the morning

No luck for me today. Geo dog made it hard to search in the undergrowth, so gave up making it a DNF.
Also no other logs since September 21 to give a hint as to whether it is still findable.

A beautiful walk down to GZ. Logs had me second guessing my initial instinct, but while I was searching the wrong spot the smallest geokid went and found the cache right where I thought it would be. Said hello to the gorgeous horse on the walk back up. Another great hide. TFTC.

Great little hide in the middle of a great piece of land

TFTC

found while out and about thanks

TFTC

What lovely secret spot , was concerned initially that was trespassing but follow the passageway between the 2 properties. Nice easy find coordinate spot on , need to tie your shoes . Beware of the farmers friend plenty around and can be annoying TFTC and bringing me here .

Great littl spot. Kids got too pat the horse on the way out! TFTC

Find #502 on streak day #172.
This evening after work I picked up my caching kit and headed off for a geoventure. Looking at this one on the map I just wasn’t too sure about it and the location, but headed over after reading the logs. I parked the geomobile on the road and made my way down, stopping to pat the horses that all came up to the fence line. I was very surprised to find this hidden gem of an area, it is so beautiful and I would have never known it was here. Just amazing The Booos! FP from me for this one. No idea how anyone other than a local would have known about this place. Making my way to gz, it was a quick and easy find when I zeroed in, and the gps had no issues here. I completed signing the logbook and replaced. TFTC!

Took us a little while of tromping around in the bushes but Mrs Danthan did a fantastic job of spotting it along with a frog enjoying a snooze on leaf.

Popped out over this way to grab a few caches for my daily streak. I found the entrance to the park easy enough from the road but the gate was half closed so opted to walk down past the horses. What a lovely little hidden gem this is! And so many ducks today GZ wasn't as pokey as I thought it would be but I still walked away covered in bottlebrush flowers after going in and out a few times, i eventually spotted it after taking a step back. Thanks for the cache!!!

Another awesome location by The Booos. Got to see many plans flying overhead - something so rarely seen during this covid time! Two black swans were swimming on the water. TFTC

Out for a day of caching with Geofam. on a nice sunny Sunday. Lived in Camden for 20+ yrs and close by for half of that. Never knew of this area. Awesome place for a nice peaceful walk and a 1st time pat of a curious neighbouring horse for Geodaughter on the way in. Compass took us right to the spot so in i go for the search but no luck. After a retreat for a wider look Geodaughter points to where i just was and sure enough there it was. TFTC.

Thought we’d take a Sunday drive to The Oaks, and popped in here on our way home. Had no idea this little patch of greenery was here. Number 8 find for the day. Found with Gundrills, KnightJR and Panda_Girl65 (signed G, K, M & P). TFTC

Tftc. Nice hidden gem

Found it after looking a few times

Cleverly placed TFTG

Really enjoyed this one! This is one of the things I love about geocaching - I would never have known about this lovely hidden gem of a spot if not for this cache! Geo 4 year old loved chatting to the friendly ponies on the way to and from the hide and checking out the ducks in the dam. We then made a quick find (nice to see something different in the way of containers too!) without too much spikiness before enjoying a little plane spotting! Awesome! Thanks for a great hide! FP for location

Good find. Great spot. Greeted by a Shetland and it’s foal then a kangaroo at the site that jumped away as we arrived.

Found quick find

OCW *Throsbyonchurch* and *Little Kitten* when we stopped to find your cache, sign the log and return it to where we found it. Thank you for the hide.

Log all official on this nice hiding location. Thanks for the hide. OCW *Throsbyonchurch* and *DustyJasperJet*.

Found -- 4:36 pm -- Thanks for bringing us to this location and Thanks for the hunt *The Booos*.

**Cache Condition:** Good.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
**Trackables:** None seen in this cache today.

**The Cache**
With Aquaphobia there was NO WAY I was coming anywhere near here. But we were able to motor down and *Little Kitten* made the find while I kept a suitable distance. Didn't take too long to find the cache in which we either signed our names or our initials in some switcheroo form of *LK, DJJ, ToC* and returned cache to its hide'y hole.

**The Day**
OCW *DustyJasperJet* and *Little Kitten*. After our Saturday soccer I was going to go home for a bit but got all flustered with all the ideas running around in my head that I ended up doing the complete opposite and went to Camden. So much for caching around Camden itself, we went out Theresa Park direction. I realised I was supposed to be at an event today, guttered because it had slipped my mind. Too late to rush to the event now. After all the drama of the lunch hour subsided we ended up having an **excellent day in a beautiful part of the countryside**.

Quick find thanks

Attempting to complete the Mystery at the Museum promotion in one day.

It took a while to locate the cache. Spotted after circling GZ a few times. Thanks for the cache!

Today Muppet95 and I set out to complete as much of the "Mystery at the Museum" challenge as possible, having earned the initial clue and souvenir at his event last night. Muppet95 had laid out a plan of attack centred on Camden, so he navigated while I drove the trusty GeoForester and we shared the finding duties. We had a couple of DNFs and, factoring in caches that one or the other of us had already found, we took a little longer than anticipated but both managed to get to the final stage of the challenge, collecting enough clues and jewels to earn the relevant souvenirs. All up a very pleasant and rewarding morning exploring the area.

This is a very odd little bit of land, presumably open to the public and a nice little spot but not super easy to figure out how to access. Eventually we drove almost to GZ and I crashed around in the bushes for a bit before Muppet95 made the find. TFTC!

Quick find TFTC!

Lots of bush bashing tonight. Prepare to get spiky leaves all over you.

Today I teamed up again with marj01 for another day of caching, this time around the Narellan/Camden/Cobbity areas. We had a very enjoyable and adventurous day visiting the cache locations, finding a heap of hides but also a few DNF's along the way.
A quick find. TFTC.

Ocw oldmorty
Quick park and grab
Thanks for the cache

TFTC. Disturbed a little fox on the way down

Thanks for the cache.Appreciate it!

As we drove down to this spot, we disturbed a group of deer who disappeared very quickly. Easy find, then we watched the small planes coming in to land, one every 1-2 minutes today, unreal.

Tree climbing

Great First cache, gorgeous location.

Found

Nice location quick find

Nice ponds, but they need some good rain to fill them up. TFTC

Found it. Also found the pen that was dropped and put it back in the container. TFTC.

Found it. Tftc

Took us a while to locate despite it being visible from the right angle.. then ouch! Somehow lost the pen in thicket while putting it back in the cache, so put in one of our pens as a replacement- next finder keep an eye out for a pen! Lovely little reserve in the middle of nowhere. Thanks for bringing us here

This brought back memories of Fathers Day a few year’s ago when my son in law organised for his friend to fly us from Camden to th harbour on a great and clear day.

When we returned the pilot’s father was waving to us as we landed. We is a plane fanatic and lives close to here.

I didn’t know this lovely reserve is here. Took a bit of looking as it is cleverly placed. All in good condition. Thanks The Booos.

What a weird little spot. When I was walking down to GZ I kept thinking I’m trespassing on someone land. Got to GZ and looked around. Spotted the cache, tricky part was how do I retrieve it. Eventually found a way, signed and I was outer of there.

A nice spot to walk dog. Quick find. Cache all good. Tftc

#4497 (2 of 10 today)

Decided to take the opportunity to spend the afternoon down Camden way, cleaning up some unfound caches in the area.
I was hoping for a minimum of five (to get to 4500 finds) but managed to get 10 out of 10 - despite one or two embarrassing cases of cache blindness! HUZZAH!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Personally I was never a fan of Cranky Frankie - such an easy singing style to emulate as well. But I do enjoy 'Fly Me To The Moon'.

What a strange little bit of public land. Keeping the dams accessible to all?
Got to GZ. Took a few minutes before I got into position to spot the blighter. Then dropped the cache lid while opening. Oops.
Completed signing duties and had to scrabble to retrieve it. All good now.

Was accompanied back to the car by a horse.

Definitely a bit scratch to get there but good size when you do. TFTH

Left geofamily in the car and strolled on down to GZ. Had to read some logs to locate. TFTC beautiful spot, lucky neighbours.

A short walk down the hill to GZ where it was a fairly quick find.
A nice spot.
SL TFTC

Found it. Lovely spot. Sadly missed the friendly horse today.

Reading previous logs as I walked from car to GZ, ticked off all the waypoints… friendly horses, various birdlife, constant planes overhead… until I arrived at a typical “song by” hide where it takes more time to work out a scratch-free access route than spotting the actual cache, usually an impossible task.

#4127- This was probably the only cache today that actually helped thomo31 and I a bit with our daily step routine. When we left the car it was just over 230 m to the cache- not a long walk by any means, but at least it was a little extra. We found the gap between the homes and followed it down to the lake, passing a beautiful and very friendly horse in the adjacent fields on the way. Stopped for a chat and a pat, but unfortunately had nothing to feed him.
All the while light planes were taking off from the nearby Camden airport- while fairly quiet, we contemplated the change when (as it is only a matter of time) the new Badgery's Creek airport is built.
We continued on to the lake- and spent a while looking down, then up and it wasn't till I went for the middle that I spotted this. A fairly simple hide, but just out of usual sight. Thanks for bringing us here- a pretty spot- lots of birdlife for thomo's photography and a cache to boot. Thanks

Out caching with WaywardWoman this morning. As we headed down the track we were greeted by a friendly horse. A very pretty area despite planes going over at short intervals! Once again I was distracted by the birds and WW made the find. After signing the log we headed back to the car with a brief chat to the horse again! TFTC

Thankyou great spot .1/3/17 pacman

Read previous logs after it took too long. Getting tangles was the best hint. There it was. TFTC

What a lovely spot. Also loved the glitter pen. We had two trackables to drop off but they wouldn't fit in. So glad we came her anyway thanks Boos

Didn't have anything to leave but found it!

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.

Thanks for the compass. Great little spot.

Got a bit tangled but had fun finding it.

Nice out of the way site.very peaceful with no muggles. Nice hide.tftc

Went for a drive with geo-gangstas, Gab__Star and Dwight Shrute. TFTC

Found by AWTYOW on a caching day together

Found with AWTYOW - laughed at her getting a little tangled during retrieval while I enjoyed the view with the others.

Went for a drive with geo-gangstas, Gab__Star and Dwight Shrute. We stared in awe of the houses we can't quite afford before going for a walk to GZ. What a glorious spot this is hidden away! TFTC!

We reversed down to the gate & went for a quick wander. We often ponder how you guys come up with such perfect locations for your hides. This is a lovely, but curious spot. A dam between 2 properties? Bi-planes overhead & other aircraft everywhere. a very enjoyable caching experience. Tftc The Booos xo

Thanks
Wear boots in the winter

Tftf...

Started my own account Found with/as Lucky Cricket

TFTC, Beautiful spot, will come again to enjoy the serenity.

TFTC, found with Lucky Cricket

I grew up in Camden and Oakdale and didn't even know this place was here, thanks Boos for the cache

Found it in the dark haha. Thanks

It is some time since I've been down this way - I'm sure this was all paddocks then. Now, amongst the houses we found this lovely dam, and raindoctor got some good photos of planes heading for the airport.

See. I'm a bit slow. I was taking all these photos of planes thinking what luck! Turns out there is an airport near here and that matches the theme of the cache name. Ahhhhh.

Nearly left without the find but then I found it

Yahooooo another one down

Love these public thoroughfares. A nice location. In the heat the horses showed little interest in me. Took me a while to find this, but then a flash of colour helped. TFTC

TFTC came here after two days of rain. Log was dry. Signed and looked at the planes landing

TFTC Took a bit to get lid off as container was differently shaped to other caches I have found. Loved the Horses and they seemed to love us as it followed us back to our car. TFTC

A nice easy walk and find, loved the planes flying low on approach to the airport.

Arriving close to GZ we were greeted by horses, vert nice looking once, what a great location, would love to have a house right here. TFTC

Once I found the right access point, it was a short walk for an easy find as I wasn't keen to drive any closer than the street.

TFTC.

A nice reserve. TFTC

Tftc, what a top spot. Coords spot on. Only muggles around were horses, deer and ducks.

A quick find before breakfast. Found with horses staring at me, and a few planes flew overhead.
Thanks for the cache.

FTF. After having an enjoyable lunch with family, we returned home and found a email with a new cache less then 5klms away. So off I went knowing the area where it had been placed and upon arriving at GZ quickly located the cache, still with a blank log sheet. Collected Pathtag for Geo-wife's collection. Thanks The Booos, also good to see the grass has been mowed.
