#6328A quick find on my way out west to go to the Orange Agricultural Field Day.Rusty is missing his lid so a maintenance visit by the CO is recommended.Thanks for the geo-fun.
Great hide!! Perfect place . Took a good few minutes- got there in the end .tftc!
OCW EverestHigh and Googlehihihi. I was the only one from the group that needed this cache, it was a very quick find and sign, although the mint tin's lid has now broken and may need replacing soon. TFTC.
A pretty quick find while in the area doing some geo-adventures today. A neat bit of street art here that caught my attention before I was even aware that it housed a cache. I liked the kookaburra too.Thanks for placing this cache cruiseforever.
Found with PapaGrouch. Out for a day sightseeing with daughter and her boyfriend. Stopped near this one earlier doing an Adventure Lab, then realised there was a traditional as well so came back to make the find. Took a little while to spot and didn't help that my device put me about 10 metres away out near the street. TFTC
Hooray, DNF avenged!I've come to Kurrajong from the city today and headed straight for this cache to try and turn that blue frown into a yellow smiley. Parking was more difficult this time so once I secured a spot for the geomobile I walked to GZ. This time I found the cache in the first place I checked. I think it was out of my reach previously with muggles close by making checking GZ a very sus thing to do.All good today!TFTC # 6105
Nicely hidden. Cache and log are good. I dropped off the trackable 'Dwa Misie Chameleon Volunteer Tag'. TFTC.
Visiting from Tuncurry. Staying at Archibald and came down for breakfast. Quick find. TFTC
Oldmorty and I found ourselves in the Kurrajong/Kurmond area and looked around to see what caches were available.Not found in the first place we looked, but in the second.TFTC
After a weekend in Blackheath, frazeydaze and I took the long way home through Kurrajong to do the recently published Adventure Lab and also grab a few caches along the way. After a brief search we soon had our hands on the prize. We loved Rusty Richard. TFTC
Had some time to kill and pulled up near GZ. Looked on the Geo Caching app and saw on close by. Strolled over and Robak65 soon had CIH.Nice hide and even nicer scarecrow. SL TFTC
Had a bit of time to kill so whipped out the phone and was less than 50m from GZ YAY.Didnt take long to locate after using the phone camera to check a few places I wasnt so keen to put my hand.Found with AussieCBRXX SLTFTC
Rusty richard got a good frisking, ended up empty handed 
Possible missing? Possibly blind?
Possible missing? Possibly blind?Ive been walking past that cache for years!!!! Never knew it was there, well done!
Found rusty Richard, the cache guardian, and found the cache. TFTC Cruiseforever
I’ve lived in the area for 39 years and walked past this 1000’s of times. Very fitting for my first day out looking for caches
The container was very fittingly rusty. My toddler loves rusty Richard and won’t stop talking about this. TFTC
I had to do a trip out to one of our aircraft Wide Area Multilateration Site Monitors (aircraft surveillance) at Kurrajong today, to do the annual maintenance checks, and couldn't resist stopping off on-route to grab a few caches. This was the 6th of 7 finds, plus 2 DNFs, for the trip.
After completing my work up on the hill I was now on my way back to the airport (KSA), but stopped off at Kurrajong village for a few more caches, and this was the second one I came to.
After a quick frisk search of Rusty he soon gave up the goods, giving me CIH. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. The nearby display of two old mill stones, from Singleton's Mills, was also quite interesting. TFTC Cruiseforever.

Find #6100
Sighted the cache after a few minutes of searching. However, it was in a very difficult location to access. Using a telescopic magnetic thingy, managed to drag it close enough to get a finger on it, then another and somehow pluck it out. Upon opening the mint tin, found it full of pieces of small sticks with no log. Cleaned it out, added a new logsheet and replaced the container in a much easier to reach location which was out of sight. Need to locate it by feel. Don't need a long arm. Will contact CO with details of location.

We foolishly spent a lot of time in wet grass! This is our first successful find! Thanks!
We were in a bit of a rush so couldn’t find this one. Also doesn’t help that there was full sun. Cute spot though!
Visiting from Sydney for the long weekend and thought we would find a few caches on the way. Thanks for the cache!
I was hoping this would be find number 4300 and had planned to walk down through the town from Bus Stop Alpha but it was pretty hot and I felt lazy so drove here.
Nice park, good view, cute scarecrow statue but a couple of muggles having a smoko here.
When I was able to check Rusty Richard I gave him a very thorough check-up and found nothing.
Checking the latest logs I see two dnfs. Maybe Richard no longer holds a secret for us geocachers.
Could benefit from a CO inspection.
