Reperio 10:47Day 2 of our NSW south eastern caching tour, and Master Vitruvius and I travelled from Tarago, through to Bungendore and then on to Captains Flat. It was quite an eventful day, from finding a dog on a lonely country road, to having a brown snake slide up next to me while signing a cache, to having a police officer pull over and put his lights on for us as we were pulling road kill off the roadand of course, lots of geocaches found. A great day out full of geocaching and adventure. Gratias KittykatchAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

It's Earth Day Weekend.

I have decided to finish my finds in each of the 360° around my home location. I have been missing 7° for ages and they are all clustered in this area.
After driving to the end if the road and collecting caches I had not been able to get on my last visit. This is finally ine of the caches I require for my 360°.

Went for an afternoon drive, and walk, along the lake road. The lake was very picturesque, full as it now is, a grand expanse of water stretching to the foot of the windmill hills in the distance!

For years after moving to Canberra, with the lakebed dry, I believed lake George to be not a true lake, but akin to those salt "lakes" we have in South Australia. It's quite a dramatic change to see it now!

"Palerang Pests" - a cute container. This one was pretty much in plain sight, though I image the place is so rarely frequented it is OK.

Thanks for the cache!

Attending the Clear Water 2019 mega this Easter in Queanbeyan. Apologies for the generic log but we have found too many to compose individual logs. Many thanks to all the cache owners for their caches, which have been exceptional in their maintenance I have had only 1 dnf and that was only because I was not going to make a tree climb without seeing where the cache was. The vast majority of caches have had very good coordinates. Along with useful hints. TFTC

Another great day out with woolwood9 hunting containers.

A quiet patch of Palerang is to be found out this way Big Grin
Especially on a cool, sunny day Smile

Wending me way north so far,
I had passed the end of the bitumen tar Razz

A poke around the edge of the lake dry,
and a cache was found by and by Big Grin

Cute container, a little tricky for me to remove and replace after I’d signed the log, but I persevered, it was worth the effort.
Thanks very much for the cache and another happy face on our map.

Out for a drive in the countryside with Bluewattle picking up a few caches along the way.

Left Port Macquarie heading south to the Mega event .
We are now back at Gundaroo Sports ground.
There are now 7 geocaching teams here. TMann from NZ had a quick stop here looking for a cache, so they spent some time here chatting
Decided to head towards Bungendore & up the side of Lake George. This was a wonderful drive, the cache containers were all so relevant to the hide name.
Thanks for placing this cache Kittykatch

Spent about 15 mins looking - checked the hint and then the previous logs. We too found what looked like the perfect spot but no cache. Not sure if its missing or if we were looking in the wrong spot?
 
02-Mar-19
We find the perfect hiding place along with the typical geocaching stones but sadly no sign of the cache.
 
03-Feb-19
I headed out with Kittykatch and Studette to find out what all this geocaching was about. We enjoyed a nice drive along the road and picked up a few caches. Then off to have a picnic near the lake. Lots of fun - should have joined up years ago.
 
03-Feb-19
Kittykatch offered to take me and Studdo out for a drive and to do some geocaching. It was more fun then we thought it might be. Will have to find time to find some more.

Cache 4316 on 29 Dec 2018

After spending Christmas with family and being hampered by a sore foot, I was getting edgy about not caching in my holidays, and a little bored. So Joeylovestreasure and I concocted a plan to grab a few early morning caches along Lake George before the sun was above the yard arm (when beer becomes mandatory)! Great to catch up with an old friend and caching mentor from my first days of caching!

Unless otherwise noted, caches found in good condition and in accordance with any hints.

This cache: second of the morning and a cute container.

Thanks Kittykatch for the cache and the fun!
