Only 2 caches today as had to get back to housesit by midday and do the Woolies shopping. Quick find here TFTC
TFTC. Cache and contents in excellent condition. It’s a beautiful winter’s day blue sky and no wind so a heat day to get some caches
nice find heading back to our friends. Still no pen so photo logging. Everything in excellent dry condition
There are some lovely coves along this side of the Tamar.
A short stroll down the track through the whispering trees.
Cache a simple find after reading the clue.
Thanks Grumbligrot

Bush Track and I had a joint day out caching in the area, it was enjoyable to spend the time together. We had 25 Finds, 1 DNF, and 1 we had to leave due to a Snake!
An Easy Find
Thanks, Grumbligrot for placing this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment

Found With GeoMaggie2. On a caching day out with our four Westies. Thanks for placing this cache. Easy find.
Travelling with Angus 88. The geocache was just where we thought it would be. Not too hard to find. Thanks for the cache
As it is International Geocaching Day today, I had to go out and find at least one, I had to travel further than I had anticipated but I finally found this one and thanks for putting it out there Grumbligrot.
The cache here I found quickly enough to embolden me to continue farther, as I now had time before my next appointment.
A quiet little spot close to suburbia. As a visitor to these parts, I am starting to see a pattern in that Grumbligrot's hides are always well thought out and nicely maintained. Thanks for all the great hides - I hope to come back and pick up any we missed. TFTC
Thanks for the cache Grumbligrot.
Spending the weekend in Low Head with RLD4963.
When RLD4963 and I stayed in George Town a couple of years ago, we walked past this cache on the way to another cache (which turned out to be an epic scrub bashing adventure). We did have a look for this cache at the time but our GPSr's were not playing nice at the time and kept having us in circles so were never convinced we had looked in the correct place.
As we approached GZ today, we soon recognised the area, and it still took us a minute or two, and we had to recheck a place we had already looked before the cache was revealed. Glad to be adding this one to our finds for the weekend.

* If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log before the deadline. Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.Please don't send me an email but instead follow the instructions posted above so that all documentation is logged with the cache.

I searched everywhere, or so I thought, for this cache, but obviously not everywhere. I couldn't even find the plant shown in the hint, so I don't if any clearing has been done around the area, but I will be back to try and find this sneaky little bugger next time.
The GPS was a little vague initially but eventually we were looking in th right place and found the container. Tftc
Noticed that it was low tide when we left the van park this morning so headed to the foreshore to get some caches before the tide turned.

Hi there Grumbligrot.
We found your cache **"Foreshore"** at 9:47:00 AM today. (This brings our total find count to 18657).
Yesterday nothing seemed to go according to plan. Everything just seemed to go wrong - but today was quite different and the sky gods smiled on us. Today we decided to revisit the caches we couldn't find yesterday, and then take a "next closest" approach to find a few more, & ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey. We had an absolutely wonderful drive and our count for the day was 13 finds (& 2 DNF's).
Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Another hidden path with beach access that we hadn't come across before. Finding these hidden spots, is one of the reasons we enjoy geocaching. A quick search at GZ and Mrs D took the honours with this one. Signed, sealed and delivered back into its hiding place. Thanks Grumbligrot for organising the cache
Back home after being in Tassie for a holiday, now the daunting task of logging all our finds, sorting through the scraps of paper with notes on them.
Had a few days of sunshine, a lot of days of rain, ended up with just over 105 finds all up on this trip, and visited many tourist spots in the north of Tassie.
found this cache after a quiet night in Lowhead, done this one after dark.
no muggles about.
thanks to the grumbligrot for this cache

Out and about in George Town today to collect lots of caches published since our last visit and this was one we found. Located and signed the log. TFTC
Lovely area to place a cache. This is a part of George Town that we had no visited before and we enjoyed viewing the river from here. Thanks for the cache Grumbligrot.
Took the kids for a short walk and ended up at the beach here for a play. Remembered seeing a cache down here on tha app. So logged in and helloooo there it was 3m away. Cache found, logged and out back.
Not the best parking here for the van so Mr Beetle stayed in it and I dashed down the track to grab this cache. A quick find. Thanks.
We arrived at this cache 15 mins after FelixII, having bumped into them three finds earlier. As to be expected around an event, it's crowded in Georgetown today. More wonderful views of the Tamar to be had here, this time from water level. TFTC once again Grumbli.
Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.
In Low Head again to attend the Leap Day event. Today we had a late start then set about trying to find all our unfound caches in Low Head and George Town.
Rather overcast but the rain stayed away.

Today we travelled to George Town to attend the leap day event arriving at 12.00 noon to allow us to find caches published since our last visit. We had 27 on our list including the event. We managed to find them all and enjoyed the variety of hides and our tour of George Town.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Nice walk and a quick find TFTC This is a lovely area and we're enjoying our second day's caching here. The weather is perfect. Also looking forward to the event on Monday evening to meet and thank all the Tassie CO's who have added so much fun to our touring here.
We've now only got four weeks left of our six month stay (til the end of March '16) from the Kurrajong area, (Blue Mountains) NW of Sydney, to tour in the caravan and also visit our kids and grandkids in the Huon Valley On four previous visits before this visit, we were muggles, so we're having fun finding the caches we didn't even know were here! even know were here!

Found on a day off with the geokids before they go back to school. Thought I better get the rest in my home town I haven't gotten yet. TFTC.
A bit of a smoke haze across the river today. Great cache - we enjoyed this one. GPS had us just off track (and he hot weather and a few lizard sightings creaking. It) it was a lucky catch out of the corner of the eye that scored us this one. TFTC.
Nice quick find in an area with a beautiful view. Trying to stop Oldsaint photographing the scenery was my major challenge.

We noticed a few caches around the waterfront here that we hadn't done so made some time before heading home. We walked down to the foreshore and enjoyed the view north in this sunny morning but were not there long as the egg found this quickly. We didn't hang around as there was more to find and a 40th to get to in Hobart. TFTC
A morning in GT on the hunt for some newly listed caches. A nice easy find with a pleasant little beach beyond. Liked the bright green guardian.. thanks..!!
We were about to head out into the garden when the emails came through - six new caches in the George Town area. It was really too hot to garden so it was in the car and heading east, hoping for a first to find to keep our streak alive (we have at least one FTF per month for the last 30 months). There wasn't a lot of traffic and it wasn't that long before we were able to park the car about 50m from this cache. It took our GPS units a short time to settle under the overhead branches, but then accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Also, to our delight, there were no entries in the logbook - so we will claim {FTF} at 16:10. The streak continues! Thanks Grumbilgrot for a well hidden cache and for your new caches in the area.
