Hi LovelyLadyLocks,

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, only to discourage people from visiting this location until this cache may be addressed.

**Please note that caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis you will be given some extra time to react as we recognise that CO's can't just pop out and fix the issue,** geocache maintenance can wait. Once the acute threat of pandemic is over, I will remind you about your cache needing attention.

Should you feel it safe for you to maintain and address this cache now, AND your regional Health and Governmental authorities allow it, please feel free to do so. However, I would like to assure you I will not be archiving any caches which the cache owner does not currently feel safe to maintain.

I'll pass by in about another 45 days and hopefully this will all be over.

Out doing a cache with my wife on a sunny Sunday during COVID lockdown. The Lomandra is still here, but the cache isn't.

We looked in the bushes for over 15 mins. Couldn’t find it

My brother and I looked for a while but we didn’t find anything

Not found

Nothing here

First ever

Second of two DNFs tonight. Used the clue and looked through the previous logs but came up short. Judging by previous photos, maybe GZ has recently been landscaped? Not sure, maybe it just wasn't my day!

Arrived here at the early hours of the day and no one about so was able to Park at GZ and the cache was then easily found in the obvious spot

With a few days of not much going on in Adelaide, I was deciding what to do for the next few days. For some reason Sydney seemed like a good choice and within 6hours I was off and away. With a last minute decision came a last minute plan of what I was going to go and find and as usual it changed but still got most of what I came for. A few DT fill-ins for my next loop, high favourites and JASMAR caches I was yet to find including the oldest in Aus: Lane Cove. Day 1: I arrived in Sydney late in the evening and had booked to stay at the rocks, I got off the train at an early stop and collected a few caches in the city along my path and a few lab caches. Day 2 I was up nice and early and went for nice run along the foreshore collecting some cache from the opera house to Walsh bay, I then headed over to manly and a nice walk around the area before picking up the free hirer car collecting a few caches on my way to lane cove. I later headed north to central coast to 2 Multis I was keen to tick off before arriving back in the city suburbs for the evening. I continued driving around the suburbs collecting LGAs and that continued on for day 3 before going to Bondi for some nice walks along the rock faces and the beach. As I had to drop the car back at lunch time I headed back into the city for the afternoon to collect the rest of the caches I had missed that were possible in the time I had left.
A total of 86 finds and 37 adventure labs for the trip.


Thanks for the cache

Nice quick find today!

TFTC

Good to get this one on the weekend as being a business park it would get busy during the weekdays. TFTC, a nice easy one to finish the day off.

Good quiet find for a lazy Sunday afternoon

Ive had my eyes on this one for ages, I just never found myself in the area. After work today I decided to swing by and get my daily smiley. A quick find at GZ thanks to good coordinates, thank you for the cache!

TFTC

Yay found it!

Tftc bit damp wiped it down.

Streak Day #2369 - Quick find with Dave8153 today. TFTC

5 January 2020
This is find number: 3851
Streak Day: 1480

Found today with Snoopy1976, a quick and easy find. Thanks

Thanks to LovelyLadyLocks for placing and maintaining this cache.

TFTC

A quick one before work today.
I ended up parking on Graf Ave and walking the last bit to the GZ.
I initially started checking for one type of cache but as i was in the process i ended up spotting where the cache actually was placed.
Thanks.

Good one. No parking but .

With the help of the hint, I had the cache in hand very quickly today!

Interesting spot; quiet on a Saturday morning, and I SL&R.

TFTC, LovelyLadyLocks!

Came by in the afternoon and found a place to park across the road. Was worried that this might be a bit of a needle in a metallic haystack, but the hit helped to alleviate those fears. Thanks LovelyLadyLocks.

Quick PnG detour out of the traffic on my way to Rookwood for a funeral. Much quieter than I expected but that and the clue had me back in the peak hour mayhem within minutes.

Great easy find

A long time ago (over 77 years) I used to live in Bankstown, so this was a memory cache, we used to play around here. Gets a fav from me. And TFTC

After seeing mum and on the way home, went to stop and try a few quick caches. Parked nearby and made the find. SL and replaced.

First one in years, tftc.

Took a punt on the hint and voila.

LovelyLadyLocks I found your cache Potts Hill Business Park on 11/5/19, 1:50 pm. This is my find 2357 and find # 9 today. A quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN

Often pays to use the geo senses and be the 2nd set of eyes!tftc

First find of the night... Three of us checked one spot and came up with nothing. Pitman Clan retraced our steps and found it where we didn't! TFTC

First in wrong level then corrected ourselves

Some things are deceiving

Had to correct ourself to finally sign the log

Tricky to park. Tftc

Getting from the nearby dishlicker cache to this one by car was not straight forward and then finding a park was interesting as well. But the cache was quickly found thanks to picking the right elevation.

On the 1st Aquilus1 and I were supposed to be first day of a three day adventure going deep into the Heart Of Darkness.... all the way through NSW to Bogan Shire to claim a multitude of counties... but (and there is usually a but) unfortunately I no longer had three days available, just two. So, last minute change of plans was for us go to the coast and go north, and see how we went. I even solved the only puzzle on the road before leaving.

So.... it ended up being a great loop, clearing out the road from Bungendore to Nerriga and going on to claim about a dozen shires. Clearing out an area is always slow going, but we were methodical... No Cache Left Behind as dubya would have said, despite the constant rain.... at least after Nerriga it was more a trip to claim counties than to clean out the map.

Late on the 1st we remembered that we should eat, probably before everything closes... luckily we found a Thai place in Berry that grumpily let us in while staring at the clock.... no mind! The food was great. Frantic internet searching looking for a motel then ensued while waiting for our dinner... all was well, we had fine lodgings awaiting us in Kiama.

On the 2nd the rain was looking like it was going to set in for the day as well, but we soon realised it was the fog that was going to be our nemesis.... it was unbelievable and downright scary... glad I wasn't driving! But, in the pea-souper, we somehow missed our turn to The Shire and ended up near Appin, no mind, we can continue in this direction.

Not sure I can even remember all the councils we passed through and grabbed a cache or two in, but here goes:
Queanbeyan-Palerang,
Goulburn-Mulwaree
Shoalhaven
Jervis Bay
Kiama
Shellharbour
Wollongong
Wollondilly
Campbelltown
Camden
Liverpool
Fairfield
Canterbury-Bankstown
Cumberland
Strathfield
Canada Bay
Burwood
Inner West
Sydney
Woollahra
Waverley
Randwick
Bayside
Georges River
Sutherland Shire
Wingecarribee

Nice quick find, left a pathtag.. please log

With GreyHams we had planned to head out for a three day trip into NSW for some counties, all the way to Bogan Shire! We had 14 counties on the route but a change of plans meant only the two days were available so plan B had us heading towards the coast and up towards Sydney.

All a bit of a last minute change but all good, GreyHams had a plan! Off we set, we had 5 counties on the list and would see how many more we had the time for. The new route had us driving up towards Bungendore to Tarago and then across towards Nerriga to Jervis Bay. A good trail of caches and we searched for them all, a few DNF's but mostly a successful trip through with a variety of caches found and some really great locations visited.

The rain set in about Nerriga, light and steady, and we both ended up more than a little damp at times, super fun when looking for a cache in the wet bushes! Mostly we cleared a nice path along the way with a few caches down some side tracks, a few puddles to play with along them and the only Mystery along the way... Well thanks to GreyHams for knitting that one out!

Stopped in Berry for a nice Thai dinner and then on to Kiama where we stopped for the night.

Woke to more rain but continued on North stopping at each county along the way for a cache and anything else interesting. Thankfully the rain did end up clearing... in its place there was the thickest of fog to navigate through, no worries about that on the Motorway with the traffic and almost no visibility!

Slightly turned about in the fog we did end up off track but worked out well in the end with a new course set and off to conquer the counties along the way into and around Sydney. A surprising 25 counties visited in the end, much more than expected but happy with the result and a good couple of days away to do it in. Thanks to all the CO's for your caches, apologies for the generic log, any additional cache information has been added to the end of this log.

Quiet pull in spot opposite and a quick find.

A&B!! So cool hahaha thanks

A&B. We found it!!! Thanks

OCW morty8888. We made this one a quick park and grab. TFTC.

OCW Oldmorty and we stopped by this business park surrounded by a Water Board water catchment? Cute cache with a female touch. Refreshing! TFTC

A nice and quiet evening. TFTC.

Managed to park legally on the driveway opposite and cross over for a straight forward find. Thanks to LovelyLadyLocks

Thanks so much our family really enjoyed this trip and it was very exciting.

Regards, Nathaniel Cricker

Out at Yagoona for work today and thus collected a handful of caches and all good with the container and contents, thanks LovelyLadyLocks

My apologies to all COs as I am catching up on 57 caches to log, so this log is not going to be worthy of the effort they have put in.

Found on a cold Mothers day afternoon with Ris768 & my Mum came along for the ride. Thanks LovelyLadyLocks for placing this cache

Last day of caching before heading to Europe for 9 weeks found this one after using Google.
Thanks for the cache Lovely Lady Locks.

Located at 9:47pm. Still pretty warm but made this find without breaking a sweat ‍‍ Cheers for the placement. Спасибо! תודה! L’chaim! TFTC!

First cache for the day. I had a big day of caching plan up north at the mysteries for the OZ GEOMUSTER but it was going to be far to hot and I wake up exhausted from hard week at work so I took of south from home and this was my first spot. I grabbed the TB. I plan to continue south to Sutherland and then come back along heathcote Rd and do the power trail. This is my 1940th find and I won't the muster at Easter to be number 2000. So I'm after numbers. TFTC

After a game of golf in the area had a little time to find this one. TB left.
TFTC LovelyLadyLocks

Was working in the area again today, checked on cache - all is good! Thanks everyone for keeping it in good order.

You gotta love it when you come to work and find a cache out the front of your work location - that was me today so i quickly grabbed this cache before heading in for a meeting.
Thanks

Had some time before the Roger Waters concert so picked up this cache and some food in Bankstown. TFTC.

An easy find TFTC

Tftc

Easy find! Had to google hint but was very helpful. Don't need to go beyond the fence TFTC

Had to google Lomandra..... lol but found it... TFTC

Merry Christmas. All the way from North Queensland thanks for the hide.

TFTC

An easy find if you know your botany.

Geocatch placed differently to map but good find

Coming here on the weekend is a bonus I think. Parking could be difficult during the week. This is well hidden in a challenging place so well done/
calendar day 194

Good and easy

Took a cute little pink magnet replaced it with a coin.

Passing through on my way over the bridge today I diverted slightly off course to make a grab for this one. Had to use my phone which is unreliable...so interpreted the hint and in a couple of minutes made the find. Visited my Mary Hyde virtual TB. TFTC LLL.

Our one thousandth geocache find on my son's birthday, while on holiday in Sydney from Auckland!

In the area conducting maintenance, and had to grab this one nearby.

Was in the area for a gem and mineral show but we arrived a little early. What to do...luckiky there is a cache round tzhe corner. Taken one of the tb's to continue its journey . Tftc.

Pretty fun first find !! First cache ever

Had the app for about a week. Decided to give it a go at 4am First find. Quite impressed actually. Goodluck

Heading home from an afternoon of caching I couldn't stop myself from pulling over to grab this one.

TFTC

#4188- About the only time I am ever near here is when my brother and I go to my parents grave at Rookwook. Last time I was here we got back to his place to see that this one was published about the time we drove past. So today,as we beat the Mothers Day rush, we did a detour after the cemetery and heard to here. An instant find and just room to leave three TB's. Thanks

Turns out you can park on Brunker Road on weekends, so it wasn't far to the cache. Lots of possibilities but the hint soon had me on the right level and the cache was quickly in hand with nobody around. Thanks LovelyLadyLocks.

Park and grab

Quick easy park and grab, had to goggle hint though.

I had some business in Homebush today so I detoured over here for a few of the nearest unfound caches.

This was the first stop. I parked in Powell Street where it was a short walk with traffic lights to help cross Brunker Road. I walked up the hill and then crossed over and made my way back as there is no footpath on the GZ side. I actually walked past GZ before I realised I was there. I was looking for spikey bushes mentioned in previous logs but there weren't any, all pruned and very different in appearance.

Once back at the correct spot the cache was a quick find. I sat on the "wall" to sign the log. Looking at the photos posted, what do passing motorists think we are doing up here??
Log signed and some TBs visited then the cache was replaced in its spot.

I headed on for some more finds on this lovely autumn afternoon.

Cache # 1914

I usually hate these types of bushes, but someone had trimmed them so as they were a pointless little sucker, so that made for an easy find.

Quite a few clumps of Lomandra to search. Almost giving up, and yes there it is. Grabbed it quickly and opened it up. No log to sign? But other paraphernalia inside. Looks like this location is also hiding place for others. See photos for what I found. Replaced the cache as found and recommenced search for another cache. Found the right one this time and signed log.

Quick find as I'm on my way to a CITO dropped of a TB. TFTC

Thanks, a cache 2km from home. No problems with parking on a Sunday morning. No muggle workers use this road as the main gate is locked.
Perfect.

Some night geocaching! Clue was awesome. TFTC

Easy

A quick find here on the way past today. TFTC!

Found without any problems. Looks like someone dropped their note book here.

No traffic here this morning made for an easy stop and an easy find!

A quick find after taking ages to find a place to park my car.
Grabbed the trackables within.
Thanks for the cache.

After a definite DNF at nearby Muttley Multi I walked over here for my cache of the day.

It always rain when I am here !

It started to sprinkle just as I got to GZ, understanding the hint meant a quick find and a quick sprint to the bus stop!

Tftc

Dropped x2 TB

Tftc! I've not been here since the area was rebuilt. Quite an improvement

I had scouted the lay of the land pre dawn yesterday and returned at 9.20pm tonight to make an easy find and fill another calendar vacancy.
