I was able to help this cache live a little bit longer, but unfortunately, don't have the time to maintain any longer. Time to go.
No find for 9 mths only dNFs - 3. Would the cO mind checking on this one - I have seen a photo of the cache before - I would have thought an easy find ?
Had a pretty good look around with mmxkr and vanderleer but no dice ...or pencils. A million mozzie bites though.
I tried to find this cache today, but my luck was not good, or maybe it was my eyesight, or maybe it was not there. Will have to return at a later time effect a find.
Could not find this today, Iooked high and low, far and wide, but the yellow pencil could not be located.

We thought we would sneak out on a beautiful Sunday morning and grab some caches and let the Geopooch have a run. We thought this cache was a good place to start. With a name like this on a cache I didn't know what to expect but when we got to gz and made the find it all made sense. Lovely bit of bushland. TFTC MNS13.
Out with axell33 and the geohound with caching and intrigue, axell33 made the find, I left our 'mark' and we agreed it was an interesting find. Tyftc
On Anzac Day we were out for a kayak and stopped for this one on the way. Loved it. TFTC Giving a favourite. Dropped in a TB.
Over this way to meet up with her Royal Highness Queen Caroline and visit the injured Right Honourable Brain with m4yb and she needed to do some maintenance in the area and neither of us have made the find here.
Not too hard once my Garmin pointed in the right way and she made a huge find of this enlarged writing stick, this one no good for a nano!
Thanks MNS13 and now KrabiBoy for the adventure today.

Visiting the area today with megawat60, for a bit of (unsuccessful) maintenance. But a quick find of this one. Thanks for keeping this cache going, KrabiBoy!
Hi KrabiBoy & MNS13 I found your The mighty Yellow PENCIL. OMG! It is really mighty huge ! TNLN SL TFTH. Image shows: The entrance gate to the cache.
What a great introduction to the cache. Found the yellow pencil on the way to nursery, log is in good condition but pencil needs a bit
'sharpening' but still writes good stories.

After the BIG EVENT on the weekend hubby suggested that we travel back to do more of the MS Series.
On the way I told him I wanted to stop and find this cache first as I have been meaning to stop and find it so many times.
We made our way to within 20m before it became too scrubby for me so I pointed hubby in the right direction and he came back with the MYP. I admired the craftsmanship before signing the log and was most impressed.
TFTH MNS13 A favourite point from me

Once again I have fallen behind in logging my finds, so am going to have to try and catch up, one way or the other. Found this one whilst up this way with Mr Jacklyegs 44. Made a point of coming out to find this one after seeing it on my map for so long. On previous visits to this area, I came away minus a bit of blood from the voracious mozzies in the area. This time the mozzies weren't so bad, but I picked up a dose of pepper ticks - ugh!! How come they attack me but leave my companions alone I wonder? Never mind, got my smiley and that is the main thing. Thanks MNS13
Out today with Mistraluna to pick up a couple of caches, it was a great day ,tftc sl, tnln.
A quick detour while on our way up to Rockingham to grab some caches. Nicely done camo. Thanks MNS13
As usual it took us significantly longer than it should have to find this one as the geokids got a little excited and took the wrong track. Eventually found this one and the geokids were very excited about this unique cache. Thanks!
Came out to grab some caches along the river and saw this on the map, awesome container. Mozzies everywhere.
My main goal of today was to come down and rescue a TB who is part of the WAGB TB race. Enjoyed the short walk in and spotted the cache easily from a few meters out. TFTC and the effort in making it MNS13
Worth a fav point from me

Came down with WebblyWA as she is incapacitated at the moment and is unable to bend, she thought I was the woman for the job as I live closer to the ground than she does. I stood back and let her find the cache & then just picked it up for her. But I did help myself to a TB
Out with OOH YEH to grab a few caches today and i had wanted to do this one since i saw the CO post a pic on her instagram account!!! Made the short walk to gz and OOH YEH soon had the mighty pencil in her hand and o so mighty it was!!! defs giving a fave point for this creative cache!!! TFTC
Headed out with the geodaughter Kristybelle to grab a few caches this morning. We had to stop and grab this one so we decided we might as well stop and say hi to the CO as well lol.. After a short walk down the track the Mighty Yellow PENCIL was soon found. Great job making this one and a favourite point from me.
grabbed the TB to move on. TFTC MNS13

*FTF* Didn't see this one until this morning after I was rudely woken on my sleep in day at 6am! It was a beautiful morning to walk through the bush to grab this FTF. I saw a kangaroo bouncing around & also saw the TB on the letter box heading back out. TFTC & for the FTF coin & pathtag MNS13
{*2TF*} thanks to social media we knew exactly what we were looking for. Being a Pom I had my morning Cuppa before setting off so it is ironic that I was beaten to it by BigTcup....well done. Left a TB. TFTC
Whoops forgot to mention that I gave the container a fave.

Sitting at home and checking the emails I saw this one was available so Mrs jinta and I headed out to try and find it.
Found easily enough after a short walk from the road side. Welcome back to the caching world MNS13 and this was a cool container. Fave point from us for the construction.
