#821 This was a quick park and grab. Any other day, I would have jumped at the chance to use a trampoline, but the sky was threatening to open up and I had a few more caches to locate.
 
20-Apr-24
A nice quick find on a rainy morning.We wonder where the nearby trampoline came from and assume it belongs to a neighbour as it seems unlikely to have been put there by the council. Maybe the neighbour miscalculated the size and had insufficient space in their property so decided to share it with the community.We were tempted to give it a try but it was a bit wet and our trampolining days are arguably over so instead we walked over to look at the plaque in the corner of the park.Nice hide, thanks philbrown01 for bringing us to this interesting park.
 
01-Apr-24
It was the first cache for us. Very excited we managed to find it

On a caching mission this morning with Keylev. I had mentioned that I wanted to hit 100 caches this week. Managed to get up to 50 so today was going to be the big one!

18-Nov-21
I had to wait for someone to move away before looking for it. Patience worked, the person eventually moved and I had the park to myself. The grass is definitely growing but not fast enough for me to see it. TFTC Smile

Last cache and a quick find which after I found after I thought I'd checked everywhere (under where I was sat). All good and replaced as found after signing in log. T F T C philbrown01.

Another quick couple of finds today as it's the first day of June, and Winter (apparently) and because I feel like it. A modest 4 finds but keeping the counter ticking over is always good for the engine, or something like that.

Sit and watch the neighbour mowing their lawn! A nice quick and easy cache. And a pleasant spot to sit right down and eat mints.
 
27-Oct-20
A quick park and grab here. The title is very correct as there's not much to do here other than sit and watch the grass grow! TFTC
 
26-Oct-20
Nope - no time for that today. We are randomly stopping where we can on our way to Devonport for the Labs before heading home. TFTC # 16,146

On a geocaching expedition from Nelson. Way back in February Isis58, no.13 and I planned a trip to Auckland for the planned Mega event. When Covid struck and the country went into lockdown we decided to wait and see what happened - - that was less hassle than trying to get refunds on our flights anyway. Well, of course the Mega event was cancelled but luckily for us, flying was an option again by Labour Weekend. We changed some of the details of our trip but decided we would fit in as much caching as we could. We were joined by Mrs SoBad. We visited some amazing places, fitted in some walks, came across lots of people - - lots of traffic too. A huge thank you to the COs for hiding caches which presented us with puzzles to solve, took us to great places, were cleverly camouflaged, were cunningly hidden - - sometimes in plain sight - - all of the above and of course an equal thank you for the ones that just gave us one more smilie. We really really appreciated them all. Thanks Big Grin!
 
26-Oct-20
It would have been nice to sit and eat and watch the grass grow. Instead Mrs SoBad and the others in the INSS group from Nelson were eating on the run. The cache was a quick find, signed as INSS and we did run on - well drive on really.
Thanks.

I took a slightly longer route between jobs this morning to come here to sit and watch the grass grow. After the recent rain the grass was rather muddy to walk on, and the seat too wet to sit on. But the cache was there, and soon signed off. I then checked out one of the fruit on the nearby loquat tree - nearly reaching perfect ripeness. TFTC

Spotted cache on approach so grass didn’t get a chance to grow as spotted on approach so a quick find

Out with Merlot58 on a sunny Spring day to collect a few caches on the North Shore. We spotted this one on our approach. Rather wet underfoot after all the recent rain.
