No luck, one DNF a day ain’t bad, good reason to come back and get into the multi with geoson.
Well, lots of trees is area. Which one? Looked all over-no joy. Had a group of 4 hackers (golfers) hitting off from the nearby tee - their shots were going everywhere so I took shelter behind a tree and... There it was. Thanks, Golfers.
Well this one took a bit! But after eventually saying one last look! Well there it bloody was! Great cache!
Spend the day at Ocean Beach Holiday Park today. A quick cache on the way home to Sydney. TFTC
The co-ords are a few metres out but a look around led me to a likely spot where the cache was easily visible. I covered it with a bit more camo.
Found 3:30 pm with friend. I've gotten the bug a bit and my partner in crime doesn't mind. So off we went to look for another cache after watching the boxing fight between McGregor and Mayweather at Ocean Beach Surf Club . This one was a strong contender being near the road and close to return journey to home. At the same time I directed another friend back to Sydney. After parking the geovehicle nearby we headed over to GZ. After a brief look I resorted to the hint and saw needed some bark so GZ seemed to be one option but then I thought I would wander and i noted another option and immediately saw the cache which was somewhat exposed. I signed the log and after returning to its spot tried to cover it up. It seems there may have been camo attached at one time but it isn't anymore.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice day for some central Coast finds. Arrived at GZ and were looking, looking, looking for a small container. Rethought the possibility of wrong cache size in description and then had it. Its a micro, not small.
Thanks channon family

Quick find but camo is definitely wearing off so re-covered with a bit of natural stuff. TNLN TFTC
Found it straightaway. Left a small surprise. Hard to get it stealthily with the cars going past.
16/4/17. 7:24 AM. Cache #4940.
2nd of 6 finds this morning - Woy Woy & Umina Beach.
Happy Easter! I'm up at my parents' house this long weekend, so a couple of mornings caching around here is in order. I had once found all of Woy Woy's caches but noticed that a few had popped up here in recent weeks, so it was worth a revisit.
Started with a quick park & grab at "Chill Pill". I then decided that all the DNF logs on "Under the shade of a paperbark tree" were enough to make that one to avoid, so this one was my next target. I wandered around the paper barks for a minute or so before spotting this one. Took it to the car to sign then replaced it. Off to "Hanging Around" next. TFTC.

It's easier when there is no one around it. Very wet inside, but plastic bag did its job very well. Dried up everything & replaced. Thanks channon family!

We came out for a spot of geocaching to get out of the house on a Sunday arvo. After a quick hunt we looked above waist height and where soon CIH. TFTC
A straightforward find while heading home after getting the grandkids off to school for my daughter this morning. I saw quite a few possible hiding spots as I pulled up but luckily I picked the right spot to check first and quickly had this nicely camoed (at least for the moment) cache in hand.
Thanks for another smiley channon family.

OK, thanks to the weather (mostly) I only have a measly 24 finds in 16 days this month. Weather still dodgy looking, but with the Geowife otherwise engaged, thought I'd take a punt and go for a whole bunch of caches today. Unfortunately, there isn't anywhere close I can do that!
So decided to head up the F3 (or whatever they've called it now) and plunder the area around Woy Woy.
First time caching here, so I was pleased when having just cleared the 90kph wet zone on the freeway the rain stopped. And didn't return!
So made a lot of finds, most admittedly were Park & Grabs, but a few still had some interesting issues. And strangely grabbed a few caches not found for almost six months - no idea why it's been so long.
Definitely returning for more around here sooner rather than later.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Took a little longer than it should, thanks to a random car that stopped near GZ as I was searching.
Spotted it on the second scan, and so needed to make a careful grab.
As I was completing signing duties a short distance away the car left, so I could replace carefully.
Then back to *The Hademobile*, and off to my next target.

Had bit of a walk around Woy Woy, after a couple of caches I haven't yet found and also playing Pokemon Go. Got to GZ, looked up the cache description and sure enough I was there at about 3pm, peak time for the school-kids. However not too many. Hid behind some of the tree cover whilst starting to have a look around, an then some golfers come by... Oh well if anyone asks what I'm doing I can tell them I'm playing the Pokemon game, more people will have heard of it than Geocaching 
After a couple of quick sweeps started a more systematic search, saw something slightly odd and woo hoo CIH. Signed log. TFTC!

With another break in the showers I thought I'd cycle over again, hoping the lawnmower man would be unlikely to be mowing the same bit of grass two days in succession. I was in luck, as I had GZ to myself, but it still took me longer to find than it should have, with me initially dismissing the obvious spot and looking for something more devious. Another blind freddy award seemed looming until I finally went back to where I'd started and spotted it.
Many thanks for the hide.

With a bit of a break in the showers, I thought I'd cycle over and take a look, but when I arrived the golf course groundsman was riding his mower up and down just the other side of the fence from GZ. Before I'd even started looking, he must have seen me, as he got off his mower and started walking towards me with an unsavoury look on his face, so I decided it was best to leave this for another day. Sorry.
Nice easy enough find though i was barking up the wrong trees for a few minutes. Tftc
We detoured here on our way home from the shops. The GPS was not needed as I parked right next to GZ and walked over to find it. The position of the cache is a bit precarious, hope it lasts there and the minimal camo stays in place. Thanks channon family for the hide.
FTF 1:10pm with Ausfeet, there's alot of tricky spots to look around at GZ but thankfully stumbled upon find pretty quick. It was nice to be shielded from the sun and traffic too. Tftc
Geocaching in high heels on my lunch break. Anything for a first. Cache camo must have fallen off cache due to wind, we added some more natural camo. Tftc Channon Family
