Heading SOR to look at some fire pits, I was about 15 minutes early so I spent this time wisely. Happy to get a smiley here Some logs signed as N20 This is my 13859 find Thankyou Maccasrepsfor placing and maintaining this cache for others to find .
Tried to find this one a couple years ago when we first started. Spent ages looking a couple of times and couldnt find it. Two years and way more experience we drove up found it in a minute. Thanks for the hide.
This is about my forth attempt so close to home . Found by chance today.tftc
Last one for today with CTBH and Gwawr. Chwiliwr found this one. Log signed then replaced as found.Thanks for the cache.
Joined grandma and grandad for a day of caching. Chwiliwr found this one.Log signed and replaced as found.Thanks for the cache.
After doing a bit more work on Chwiliwr's study we decided to contact G & G to go caching.Great day out. Log signed and replaced as found.Thanks for the cache.
Yay! 2nd time lucky. Spent ages the first time after giving up. This time found it straight away! Sneaky little critter! Tftf.
I gave up on this one before the young one did haha don’t know how she spotted it- our phone does not give us accurate gps points so we went in circles for a bit- but she did it! tftc
Granted the weather was terrible so we did not have the persistence to see this one through but alas we did not find this critter... we will be back when the weather is better!
Nice quick park and grab, nicely hidden but knew what I was looking for!
Thanks for placing and maintaining Parklife - Port Kennedy Boardwalk Maccasreps!

Dnf'd this one a few years ago. Decided to have another look for it today & Geodaughter Redrobbin25 soon had it in hand! Tftc
A sneaky hide, but I found it pretty quickly after I began searching at the right height. Found with teamlaroche! Thanks for the cache
I parked close to GZ and took a seat before spotting the little cache. All good with this one. Log signed and cache replaced exactly where found. Thanks for the cache

*Finally* found this one after three or four attempts. Each prior attempt was very brief and whilst the kiddos and I had an idea of what we should have been looking for, we just couldn't find it! Cue husband, who was out for a walk with us on this occasion... He won't let me live this one down! TFTC ??
Found it while out on a very unsuccessful day hunt with my boy. Such a tricky little hide! Love it!
Well well well
While in the area to pick up some puzzles for the Turdler this afternoon we scooted to a nearby hide.
Big Mick for this win!
As I started the search *someone* had to log into the app on his new phone. Then *someone* concentrated heavily in one section because *someones* map is soooooo much better than mine.
I think the real winner here today is Samsung. My iPhone got its ar*e handed to it today.
Now *someone* is keen to go hunting for more because *someone* thinks they have a much better chance of success now.
Cool hide, we enjoyed that find

Lol Now I have finally become a Geo Cache member thanks to my Geo friends WayneO and feel very satisfied to have finally found your fantastic cache. Looking forward to seeking more of yours. Thank you

No luck for me today even with the neighbour across the road looking as well! Will have to come back without a screaming child.
Was just about to give in when i had quick rethink and low and behold there it was. Very satisfying. Like everybody else that's a sneaky lil one
Well this one was on my way to another cache and didn’t realise it was a maccareps one til after I pulled up! When I realised I settled myself in for a long search BUT I had it in hand in less than 3 minutes, trusting my GPS and having had experience with his great caches I feel really proud of myself!! Another well thought out camo!! I do like your caches! Please keep them coming! Getting a fav from me ️
Found! Wow what a good hide! 2.5 hours total looking!thanks for me&b forthe help via message!
Out and about with VespistOZ today. Good to see there are still some of your clever caches active!!!
SO please to have finally found this very clever cache - giving Duck a run for his money. mE&B brought us both luck!
Very clever hide. Loved it! Fav point here for the awesome camo and thoughtful creation. So good ! tftc Maccasreps.. this is my 600th find
Found with Geotrekky. Great camo hide, appreciate the thought you put into this. Thankyou for this great start to our caching today!
We've been saving this one for a day like today. We realised we needed to find one today for the calendar and this one was nice and close to home. Great camo. TFTC
TFTC!! Did the usual look around for possible spots and then bang found it! Great work guys...
Out & about on this lovely day with Geotrakka cleaning up a few odd bods Hopefully lots of finds thanks awesome hide deserved a favourite
Worthy of a fav - we need these original camos out there - thanks for taking the time to do this. Such a beautiful day to get out and grab some smilies. Thanks for putting down your cache - it added to my day.
Wicked little find. Very little find in a wonderful camo. Was extremely chuffed finding this one.
It’s so cold out today, but just had to come out on international geocaching day to find myself a couple of caches.
Thanks for the cache.

Sad to search an area & no find. Activity suggests it not there anymore- z Poolman
Decided to head out for a morning of geocaching to boost my points up in the planetary challenge.
Number 4, had previously looked for this one to no avail. Today I had the cache in had in a matter of minutes, definitely deserves a fav

Found at 9:55:00 AM.
I arrived at this one as I was getting an alert to say that a storm was imminent. After a few checks I was out of ideas so I rang a friend. No answer there, but as is often the case I hung up and spotted the likely hide. My friend rang back as I was signing the log so I told them thanks for the help!
Thanks for the cache Maccasreps, it was cache number 2377 for me and was number 7 in my run of 8 finds and 2 DNFs for today's geocaching effort.
Cheers

A big days caching was planned today with the eventual goal of turning up to the belated Australia Day event hosted by PP2 in Secret Harbour.
We set off in the morning with the intention of grabbing some puzzles we had solved and had a heap of help with, that all changed when we got notifications down for some FTFs north of the river! Managed to grab one together and I grabbed one with family Steiner and then met up again at gateways to head down to the event.
Managed to grab a well cooked snag by an adopted Aussie! Thanks PP1 for cooking a great snag. We then set off to cleanup the area of caches, managed a few finds on the newer caches released for the event and DNF a couple of others.
Did manage to nab a puzzle FTF thanks to a group find with kyzabra, who did all the hard work while we watched on
Thanks for a great day out and can't wait for the next big suburban event!

Another trip out with Barnzy12 heading to the belated Australia Day event.
Another glorious day out in the sunshine and finding a range of cache types and containers, including some new custom made ones I think were fantastic.
Maccasreps I found your cache Parklife - Port Kennedy Boardwalk thanks for placing this hide and bringing me to this area.

It wasn't long before GeoDaughter had the cache in hand. We had to go to the car to get an extraction tool to sign the log. TFTH!
Clever hide. Thanks I am glad I finally got the smiley for this spot

Thanks Maccasreps for bringing me to this location, and for the cache. It was found in Good Condition and I returned the cache as I found it.
This find brings my total number of Finds to 3621.
Took a little longer then expected with 6 of us looking. Finally found it when falcon351 spotted an odd thing walking past. Thanks for the cache.
Having settled into our lovely accommodation with the gracious PP2 team we set off on our own to grab a few.
This is a great hide well constructed and placed.
Thanks for the smiley maccasreos well worth a fav!

Out n about with megawat60 grabbing a few caches pre-WAGB17. A great cache here remeniscent of a well known SOR crafter. In a good location too, worth a fave from me, TFTC!
Second time lucky.
Out for a walk with the family and my mother in law, and her dogs who were getting their first walks ever.
My daughter and I took an extra loop around the natural area and decided to give a bit of a look for this cache. While she tended to the dogs , I hopped the fence for a different perspective, as the gps was sending me to a completely different spot than the last time.
It didn't help.
I went back to my original GZ from my first visit and as soon as I looked at it, I knew I had found it.
Great hide; love the plain sight ones.
Reminded me of a great one from JaseandJenine that has since been archived.

With another Cacher whose previously completed this cache and confirm it is definitely not here
Searched high and low but with no luck.
May try again when we're in the area.

Had a good look, but alas we couldn't find it. Previous cachet said it was coming apart. Hope it hasn't disintegrated.
Had me stumped for a little bit. But found it. Forgot my tweezers will have to come back. Loved the camo. TFTC
Hi there Maccasreps.
We found your cache **"Parklife - Port Kennedy Boardwalk"** at 3:25:50 PM today. This one makes our find count 15059.
What a great afternoon of caching. It started off with a cuppa with Clan Wallace, and then they chauffeured us around to show us the sights. . . and of course some of their favourite caches.
We were amazed at the quality and inventiveness of the caches they took us to - they rate amongst the best we have ever seen. Regretfully we can only award one favourite point to each one we found today, they really deserve ten.
Later in the evening we had the great pleasure to meet the cache owner over dinner and drinks. We enjoyed some lively discussion and plenty of geo-yarns to keep us amused well into the evening.
Today we found 9 caches & DNF'd 0. Thank you for placing this cache here, (and thanks Clan Wallace for showing us these truly well crafted caches). Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 2m from where our GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Down in Rockingham chasing down some new caches. Very clever hide here that we nearly missed as we had all but given up and were starting to head back to the car when it was uncovered.
TFTC Maccasreps this is find # 1479 for us

Found this one with Leega and the Geohound whilst out for some early morning cache. We searched for awhile and finally spotted what I thought might be a possibility. The hunch was right. Great cache I loved it. TFTC Maccasreps.
Found with axell33, who claimed the treasure after a bit of a search from both of us. Nearly tricked us out of a log!
Needed a cache for IGD and failed at the one closest to me so pedalled out in the wind to this. Thankfully first place I looked due to spot on coords. TFTCleverC.
I looked quickly for this one a couple of months ago after dropping off some youth groupers but I was thwarted by a constant flow of people in and out of the houses across the street.
After dropping some movies back around the corner this afternoon I decided to see if I could spend some more time and get a find.
I arrived at GZ with some people where I was being told to go so I waited in my car listening to the radio until they left.
With the area clear I headed over the the area and started the search and after 15 minutes of methodical checking of everything I had the cache in hand.

Teamed up with Eliktrisiti for an afternoon of caching around the Baldivis/Warnbro area, racking up about 24 finds in total and only a couple of dnf's - so, all in all, a very productive expedition. Have to confess that my companion found more than I did, but it will possibly be a different story next time we venture out. Having alerted the CO after our last visit that this one might be missing, he very arranged for it's replacement to be put into action, and all done from overseas too - how is that for service with a smile. Another clever camo from Maccasreps - hope this one stays put. Thanks for our well-earned smileys Maccasreps
Though we spent a bit of time here, we weren't able to locate it. I did find a spot that I thought would have been a great spot for a certain type of hide, but nothing there today. A later conversation with a previous finder confirmed my suspicions. Might be worth checking on this one Maccasreps.
A little birdie told us that there was a new hider in the area who constructed ingenious caches. What else to do but dedicate a day to finding them. This was our first stop, and I luckily found this clever hide, due to the accuracy of the coordinates. A lot of thought had gone into making this so it perfectly matched its surroundings. Well done Maccasreps, if this is the taste of things to come, I eagerly look forward to the rest of the day.
K-man88 is new to geocaching, so I took him out to find a few caches and show him the ropes.
Clever little camo here, took a bit of work to get the log out.
TFTC Maccasreps.

Due to rain on and off throughout the day the area was pretty much deserted. Great for us because it made for a thorough search with iluvtrekking and coming up with the goods. Thanks Maccasreps
