There is a lot of construction work in the area. I believe the hide is scheduled for demolition
We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in North Western Sydney, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Ingenia Holidays Avina BIG4 Holiday Park at Vineyard. Hoping to collect some previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches, complete some Adventure Labs, and accumulate enough cache finds with our mini seven day streak for this month’s "Wheel of Challenges" (medium) souvenir. Photos will be uploaded to some (most) logs on our return to home base.
Today (day 3) we are heading homeward, but stopped off at Rouse Hill for some caching around Caddies Creek & Smalls Creek, where we collected some Traditional caches. A total of 8 finds for the day (day 3).
No luck for us at this one. Looked all over the bus shelter, particularly the roof, but failed to find any trace of a cache. TFTH anyway Gametime876.

On a caching journey today and found about ten out near rouse hill way. This was the second find of the day.
Parked some meters up the road and walked over to this bus stop. Before reading the hint I spotted on structure on the roof that could’ve made an excellent sneaky but gross hide. Checking the size and description, I saved myself from touching the gross object.
Searched all of the appropriate spots, and eventually found the cache in a safe place, but not magnetised.

Ride my bike to the bus stop and took a look around found what I was looking for overall fun experience and would like to do more
Came to this one thinking quick park and grab. Having read the description, I was looking for a magnetic cache... not here.
Looked at the clue and followed it, cache in hand..... Hmmm no magnet, oh well.

Nice little find. 5 year old found it. The clues and other comments helped. Thanks
Was harder to find then I thought it would be, almost gave up. Cool little tube, as others have said it’s no longer magnetic
Cache was the end goal of our isolation exercise today. Took a nice walk out to the end of the road and took a few minutes to find this nice little cache.

Some easy walking around for some geocaching. A great pastime while at the same time practicing social distancing.
This was a good find. TFTC

Glad we got this one, quick to find I like the previous couple we tried which ended up DNFs. Off to look around the corner now to see how it’s all changed! TFTC
On the way to Scheyville NP I went through Kellyville to grab today's cache.
Wow, things are really changing out here!
I made my way to the bus stop and parked nearby with a short walk to GZ. Just as well, a bus actually came along before I'd left the geomobile. Wasn't expecting that at the crack of dawn.
Had a quick look in the area and soon spotted the cache.
Signing the log was difficult - its full.
Managed to squeeze my monika along the side.
As I walked back to the geomobile a council truck pulled up to check the shelter. Looks like I timed my visit perfectly!

Last time I was near here was a few years back, finding GC4JE6C ('Where's the Bus?') down on Withers Rd. Times have changed. A new shopping centre at the end of Barry Road, and a heap of new houses here . Found the cache without any problems. Cache and log are in great condition with heaps of space left. TFTC Gametime876!
Streak Day #1775 - Out with dave8153 for a quick find to keep our streaks alive. TFTC
Nice size container for this location and it’s nicely hidden. Did the legals and replaced as found. TFTCM

Encouraged young Matt for a driving lesson and he jumped at it. I obviously included a cache into it for a “me”reward.
Over an hour to drive here, in which included many 3 Point turns, reverse parking at rouse Hill Bunnings, before heading here. Quick find, and then we continued down towards the new estate, before home. Very impressed with his driving this afternoon, and thanks for the hide

Inadvertently found myself in the area, so while no one needed me, I slipped away and found this one. TFTC
This cache managed to hide itself away until a different perspective came into play. Ah! Once it was spotted it was easy enough to retrieve it, despite some walking muggles going by. All duties were done, cache was replaced and we were off to make the next find.
Gametime876 gets our thanks for putting this cache into play.

Had no problems in finding this cache. This cache was found after a short search. The log was signed and then the cache was then replaced as found. Thank you Gametime876 for placing this cache.
15/10/17. 2:02 PM. Cache #5473.
15th of 15 finds today - Pemulwuy, Kellyville.
After caching the Pemulwuy Power Trail series today (#2 to #14 with The Vikings), we parted company and I headed north up to this one.
There was no sign of Little Rocket Man here, so maybe this NthK is a safer area than the DPRK I had heard so much about. Still, just to be safe, I used the hint to make a quick find, sign and replace, then crossed the DMZ into safe territory before heading for home. TFTC.

Decided to head back up Windsor Road to Rouse Hill (or as per the first's cache listing, North Kellyville... Well I live close to Ryde (Ordinary, Top, West, North & East so who am I to query it?)
Was hoping to pick up two but my second target was dubious due to DNFs and no recent finds, but hope springs.
Did only get the new one, but the fun will be tomorrow when I want a few and have no time to get them!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Well had a little cache blindness here - checked what I thought the most obvious spots but found nothing. Checked a few others. Nope. So checked the hint. OK, that's where I started. But there was one idea I hadn't checked - and there it is mocking me!
Made the grab, completed signing duties and replaced.
So much building going on here. Big suburb coming up!

Noticed the notifications for new caches coming in this morning, but we had a memorial service to attend before any caching activities could be contemplated. Fast forward to early this afternoon and we decided a trip to the movies was in order, so we dropped by this cache beforehand. On locating the cache container we were surprised that there was still a clean logsheet within, so we both signed as FTF before replacing everything as found. As to be expected both the container and log are in excellent condition.
The following TBs came through for the mileage: Bob geoMinion, Dave geoMinion, Evil geoMinion, Jerry geoMinion, Larry geoMinion, Mary Hyde's Treasure, Stuart geoMinion, teamMerlin's 7 Deadly Ducks Tag (Lust) & Vanlith The Youngling.
