No luck for us here today. There was clear evidence of rocks being moved which is probably not the best thing for this little garden. We enjoyed our drive through Killarney Heights on Australia Day with little Australian flags on almost every lawn in the suburb. Cheers... Gaztek
Couldn't find it, moved all the rocks that we could. Searched for about 10 minutes
My friend and I were just having some fun at our school funday where got to head over to the park for a little while. As we walked around I spotted this little box not knowing what it was. We opened it and found out that it was a geocache! I think it is a special one but the tracker is missing. Now I am not sure quite what to de with it because inside was one piece of paper that said to move it and another stated that we should just leave it. Any advice? (I can take it closer to the Grand Canyon.)
TFTC - nice swing past on our bikes. Added a tradeable. May need extra waterproofing due to a small hole in the container, before the rain is back again.
Another day taking care of The Boy, and his first go a geocaching. He found it pretty easily, but needed a hand to open it up! TFTC
Quick find after playing rugby against forest ville there was no TB in Cache though
Thanks for placing this cache

Left some eyeballs for the next group though took nothing. What's the go with that wheel?!
Needed a find for today so came down to this closish cache to home.
BabyJMan spotted the cache from the car - a very simple cache.
Loved the design on the front of the log. Log is slightly damp.
Swapped TBs
Overall a really nice park hide and a great first cache for someone (this one could even be found simply by looking at the satellite images).
Thanks!

- TFTC!
- TFTC!Last one of the day, and only GC cache. I was up in the area hunting down some of blossoms* GCA Puzzle caches... and pokemon gyms 
This has been closest to home unfound for a while so great to get it off the list. Left a TB and took the one that was there. Nice sized box, easy find even in the failing light. Cheers!

#3916 (2 of 3 today)
Decided to head North East today around Killarney Heights.
There are a few new caches there as well as an old one that needs finding.
Found all I went for except the old one.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Second quick find of the day (after being muggled out of another close by) - well the right spot just screamed at me as I approached.
Took well away to complete signing duties, then back for the replace.

Fun easy one. We first looked in wrong area, but then read the clue "move the rocks" that helped
Decided to go for a drive to the Northern Beaches tonight with Snoopy1976 and decided to do some caches in the area. This was the 3rd and last for the Night, with a find just aftermidnight on this one. TFTC
Streak Day #1298 - Found after midnight since we were out this way so we could have a day off...not many around home to find nowadays for me lol. TFTC
To keep my streak going I left early this morning for a day at Narrabeen Lake and detoured on the way down into Killarney Heights to collect todays cache.
As I drove alongside the park I spotted something matching the hint so I pulled up and went into the park. There were two possible spots, one seemed to contain rubbish but the other contained a nicely secluded cache container I signed the log and replaced the camo and then headed back to the geomobile just as the early morning dog walking muggles began to approach.
So it was a good start to the day!
Visited some TBs.

starting the new year by relisting our cache. sorry for the wait, we replaced the container a while back and was about to relist it but there was a thunder storm and we had to shut down the computer.

The hint helped with this cache as the logs are a bit out. The container has a crack in it and may let in water. Interesting cache, TFTC

No muggles about on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Soon found some objects matching the hint but had to venture a bit further along than where my iPhone was pointing me. But it's pretty easy to spot. Unfortunately the weight of the camo has caused some damage to the container as mentioned in the previous log.

After the morning school drop-off at Forestville we continued along Starkey Street to Killarney Heights, to have a look at the two newish ones that had recently appeared out there. This was the 2nd of the two for this morning.
After finding "Killarney Drive Bush!" we drove back along Starkey Street to this one. Parked the geomobile right alongside GZ, at the park, and then headed in for a look. And while I was busy checking around the spot that the GPSr was indicating as GZ, the family's chief puzzle solver was busy finding the cache about 10 metres away. It's an easy find, so the error is not really a problem, but for all it's worth the GPSr (Garmin 62s) was indicating **S33° 46.412 E151° 13.043** at the hide.
Signed the nicely hand drawn & coloured log book (it was nice to see a bit of effort had gone into the log book cover), swapped a Tazo (out) for a coloured novelty domino (in), then replaced the container, with it's nice big colourful geo logo on it's lid, back as we had found it.
TFTC Theminshalls, and congratulations on your first two cache placements.

20/10/16. 9:33 AM. Cache #4321.
1 find today - Killarney Heights.
I spent the day helping my brother-in-law to put some fencing and put in some drainage in his backyard, so there wasn't going to be much scope for caching... except they just happen to live 370 metres from this new cache, so it was a simple detour on the way over.
Turned out to be an easy park and grab thanks to the hint, and I signed as 3TF. Note the lid didn't close properly with the pen in it (it's too big) so I placed the pen near the cache but not in it - you might need to find a smaller pen. TFTC.

Tried to convince Geokid to come out yesterday when this was published but he was much more comfortable sitting on the lounge with his iPad.
Was on the way to the City today so popped in for a quick find. GPS was a bit flaky but the hint made for a quick find. 2TF at 2:20pm

FTF!
While completing an appointment at a clinic not too far away, an e-mail popped up with this new cache being released. On the way home a slight detour saw me arriving at GZ just in time for my phone app to play up, or rather stop playing. Going on Geo-sense I searched the area and soon saw something which looked promising.
