Ahhh gotta love a road trip … nothing better on a wet horrid day out caching and converting those greens to sunny yellows Out with Mr and @ Ellemaree and her muggle. Great laughs / fun dodging showers and getting some fresh air …TFTC

Tad wet but still managed to find it. Be careful parking on the side of the road very muddy and boggy.

Found this on the 12/03 while on a day out with bananafrog. I really enjoyed this find and was a very clever cache. It took us a while to find it while it was right in front of us the whole time.

This is brilliant, really love you design. Tftc

Found it. TFTC Bristag. Nice one, there was one 10m away it took me a while to work out why there was another one. I looked at it several times and disregarded it.
 
26-Oct-20
Very impressed! Walked over it and picked up didn’t realise had found cache till about five minutes later!! Fav point definitely!!
 
26-Oct-20
Headed out to York to spend the day with BJA3 doing what we love to do - caching. Picked up over 30 finds today with only 2 DNF's & a couple of Lab's as well .

We loved this one, very clever. I did fiddle with it when I first saw it and thought how odd to have this here not realising I had the cache in hand! I just started telling the geowife what I had found and she said was I sure its not the cache ...... so I picked it up and after a little playing ahh hahh .

Great camo so definitely a fav from us. TFTC Bristag and bringing us to this spot!

After a rather unpleasant experience at the caches we tried for this morning, it was far more enjoyable to come and find this one along a country road that I don't think I have ever travelled before. Nice quick find too. From here we trundled along from one cache to the next, following our noses, sniffing out smileys. We met up with another caching team for a few joint finds around York before grabbing pub lunch and doing then worked our way back towards Northam for the end of the race and closing of the event. Congrats to all the winners - sounds like they had fun, but then again, so did we. Great day all the way around. Thanks for adding to the adventure Bristag.

WAGB19 weekend! Smile Had driven out to Northam this morning and after checking out the event location & registering, I then headed out for a drive picking up some caches between Northam and York, with some time then spent in York itself. Was a lovely day weather-wise and caching-wise Smile This was one of the caches I stopped off at as I do love a bit of local history Smile Nice camo on the cache but I was lucky enough to go straight to it Smile So no problems for me here today, thanks for highlighting the location and TFTC

Neva2Old found it after I searched that spot for at least 10 mins. TFTC Smile

Hi there Bristag.

We found your cache **"School Days - Grigson's Well"** at 12:29:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 22548).

We are staying in York before heading off to the WAGB Event in Northam. Today we started off by nominating a cache close our camp site and then took a route that was mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.

We found 4 caches today & DNF'd 2. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic travels around Australia. We awarded this cache a favourite point for the ingenious camo

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Took a run out to Northam and york with Redlipsandunicorns to pick up a few caches. Didnt get all of them on the list as it took us ages to get to northam with the traffic. The ones we did look for were all found with the cache of the day being Aviators Delight which took ages to find with the great camo job. A pleasant drive which we will do again on the weekend for WAGB. Thanks to all the CO,S for the caches
 
27-May-19
Out on a caching run with Ooh Yeh today, to continue trying to close in on my magical 2000th find, hopefully before WA Goes Big. Nice quick find here, in this nice little location, log signed and cache replaced as found. Really enjoyed the day out in the area, even more so as the geo-baby stayed happy for us haha!
Awarding a fave point for this cache! Tftc!

This is find #1967 for us!

Heading home after some r n r with Bruce in Toodyay.

Not sure what Navi was thinking but it wasn’t the way I thought on how to get here from Northam so we had to backtrack.

What a great little hide! Looks like it's been a while since anyone stopped by, but all is in great shape. TNLNSL. TFTC.

Nice hide, thank you Bristag.
 
18-Aug-17
Found while sight seeing around York today, and to convert some little green boxes to smiley faces. I have came across the outer container before but this one had a bit extra that had me thinking it might be the real thing but checked it any way. I also like the novel use of the piece of classroom equipment. TFTC.

Another work day, another trip to Northam. For a change, I headed home through York to grab a few caches on the way back.

A nice easy find here.

TFTC! Cravo10 and I spent a day out in the Avon valley collecting a couple of caches around York and Toodyay, whilst in the area on other business.

Slow day in terms of number of finds, with only 7 caches grabbed but an ice drive through York reminiscing about all the great hides the area has which unfortunately don't seem to have grown for quite some time with the small number of local COs now out of the game or having very limited activity in the game. Would be great to have the area pumping with caches again especially with some good teams in Northam putting out a good number of quality hides.

Highlight of any trip to York is the penny farthing lolly shop which had cherry Dr Pepper today!! Huge success

We continued along to Northam and grabbed a couple more between the two towns before finally ending the day with a lone cache in wundowie, and a second to find at that! Thanks to the local COs we will be back out this way soon hopefully.

Great effort, Bristag. One of your best.

29-May-16
Found it nice hiding stop
 
26-May-16
Running some errands in Northam, of course we had to see if there were any unfound caches nearby... Well there wasn't, so somehow we decided to make a rather large diversion on the way home to find this one RazzSmile

Overshot GZ & made a U-Turn back past the cache to find a spot to safely pull over... Turns out was soft boggy mud, but myself & Master 4 managed to make it to GZ without getting our feet wet Surprised After a quick read of the sign, I soon spotted something cache like & upon further inspection the prize was discovered!

TFTC Bristag [^] Nice camo on this one... You've been a bit quiet lately, hope your been busy in your workshop Wink

16-May-16
If it makes you feel better, Bristag, you'll be pleased to hear that I had absolutely no idea what or where the cache was. I was there after pug002 but before hobbits123 and I was completely stumped. Looked at the sign, looked at the fence, followed the footsteps in the grass, no idea!
It's on the way to work so I guess I'll be back regularly ...
