Unfortunately, I think this cache is gone had a sweet little girl tell us (who lived across from the park) that it was gone..

Took some tugging.
Was starting to despair I'd lost my ability to spot caches - thanks for restoring that!

Out and about exploring Esperance with CAD ... We are meandering our way back home to Darwin after a year caching around Australia... Found this one on the ground - replaced where GZ took us but CO needs to check ... The chorus of dogs serenading us was delightful!! T4TC:)
Very clever however as we have seen quite a few of these we were not fooled for long. This was another nice park in an area where there seems to be no shortage of open places for kids to play. Thanks barman 5 for your cache and the effort made to produce something a little different. TNLN

Day six of the Nullarbor experience. Today I started ~50km from Cocklebiddy and finished up all the way in Esperance. It was a magical day with the rain shining most of the day.
After I caught up with maccamob, Alansee and Mica Paramedic, we went to the pub for dinner, then headed out for a few local caches while we were at it. This was the first of them.

Catching up with some late logs, therefore this unfortunately is going to be one of 'those logs'. I apologize in advance for the generic log, A combination of limited time and too many to log dictates that a generic log is best. I have enjoyed the hunt and being outdoors in this great country of ours, partaking in a pastime that I thoroughly enjoy. I usually head out by myself, but I thank those that have had the misfortune of my company in some of these ventures.
Thanks baman_5 for placing this cache.

Found by Mary & David, in convoy with micaparamedic and Alansee, at 1940. A short walk to GZ, where we caught a glimpse of the cache almost immediately. Our thanks to baman_5.
On the way into town. Stopped here and megawat60 was the one to find this clever cache. TFTC Baman 5!
Down here with m4yb for a short break, lovely walk along the foreshore and some back streets. Can't believe how peaceful and quiet it all is.
I liked this one but did get confused with the hint, until I reached that "Doh" moment!
Thanks for the cache and I think its worth a fav barman_5

Went on a trip from Perth to Kalgoorlie down to Esperance and then back to Perth. Spent 6 days finding, hiding and even maintaining caches along the way.
The majority of caches were found easily and in good condition even some archived ones.
Took a few travel bugs and placed along the way.
TFTH TFTC.

TFTC! Found during a 6-Day trip from Perth to Kalgoorlie, Esperance and back to Perth via many back roads and country towns. We found a huge number of caches, clocking up nearly 3000km for the entire trip.
The highlights of the trip have been picking up a bunch of old caches in Kalgoorlie and the surrounding towns, placed by some of Western Australia's first geocachers.
We ventured as far north as Leonora in search of our prizes even visiting a large number of ghost towns along the golden outback trail, some of the most amazing places I've seen in my life, see the pics if you want to know more.
During our trips out from Kal we think we visited nearly every gravesite or headstone in the region with the number of caches in and around cemeteries!
We completed a large amount of cache maintenance around the Kal area, with a large number of the older caches suffering with cracked lids, smashed containers, wet logs and alike. We planned to help about a dozen caches with new containers and ran out after the first couple of days. So if you're in the area please help out as best you can.
We also picked up a number of caches in Esperance placed by some of the newest cachers in the state, who seem to have so much passion and energy.
We ventured out to Cape Le Grande and picked up a few of the caches there, not quite being game enough to grab the views of hellfire cache but we grabbed all of the others we paid for our walking that night!
We even had time to place a couple of caches in my Country Cache series so please look out for them on your travels. Thanks to the locals who have kindly agreed to maintain them.
Thanks to all of the Cache owners for placing the caches that we found, hopefully you can place a few more for our next trip
Thanks
Interesting concept

Easy find. I haven't seen a film canister for years so I had a little trouble opening it.
Found on this cold rainy slightly windy day , kids got to play in the park... Cache was a little tricky to retrieve but there was no way we were leaving until we had signed the log, abit of persistence and there we had it... Tftc
Lions do not park [:o]
Butlers do park
And so after parking at Lions Park,
I strolled to Butler Park
If none of that made sense ...
... then welcome to my world
In the middle of two cul-de-sacs with the same name,
I searched a log for a cache to log.
Because I had strolled here to GZ,
none of the nosy neighbours were peeping through their curtains to see what was going on
And by and by, I finally spied the cache
But me stubby fingers could not work the container out of its hidey hole
I recruited a nearby bit of timber, and prised off the lid !!
Hooray, a logbook to sign
Lid put back on, I was out of there before anyone noticed me strange antics in Butler Park today
