Out doing a spot of caching with the geo-pup, trying to get back into it after a summer off.
Usually he gets in the way but his dad puppy eyes got the better of me ?? and so I brought him along.
No luck finding this one today but a thorough search was hindered by having the geo pup with me.
Thanks for the hide wellsy21

Out for a Sunday afternoon after coffee walk. After grabbing another nearby cache and exploring some of the local parks we ended up here. I had tried for this one a couple of times before a few years ago but this time I had some new coords which proved to be a bit closer.
It still took a while to find, I was on the verge of giving up.
My coords were S 32° 09.877 E 115° 51.826

I made this harder than it needed to be. Coordinates are a little off by my readings but still put me in the correct vacinity to start hunting.
I came, I saw, I signed the log. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.
Cache is in good condition.

Went out for a morning ride, unfortunately the weather wasnt the best but i still had fun, completely dreched
Used the coords in a previous log which made more sense.

As I arrived it began to rain. I quickly ruled out GZ and ducked for what little cover there was. A quick check of the likely home revealed the cache. Was about 5m from my GZ. TFTC
Have it a go a little too late, ran out of light and was not able to keep track of the toddler while searching. I'll get have to give it another go at a later date.
Headed out on this Sunday morning with a mission to “clear” out Aubin Grove and the surrounding areas. Nice quick find here. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC
On my way home, I diverted to grab a cache.
Quick grab here today
Thanks heaps to wellsy21 for placing Duck Hunt 2. I found it this evening and added my name to the log. Put it back where I found it and continued on my way.

We were out and about nice and early this morning to grab some close to home caches before the heat got too high! Cheers and TFTC.

Coordinates were out but I found it on a place I don't like as I have to trust there is nothing there that bites.
Thanks

Finding this cache at night with only an iPhone light was a challenge but fun. One geokid was on century watch for muggles, one helped my wife and I search for it.... and the other two kids stayed rugged up in the car. After 10 mins geokid had it in hand. Thanks for providing a great end to a great day out.
Headed out today with urch who needed a whole swag of caches to top up her growing collection of hidden creatures. As for me, well I just needed one more find to earn my last one, the lovely World Turtle. After that task was accomplished, we just followed our noses, stopping here and there to look for caches and earn more smilies. Gps units were sending us all over the place here, but we found the cache anyway, plus a fish scaler (??????). Replaced the cache as found. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for the rest of us to come and find wellsy21.
Took a day off from tedious around-the-house stuff to get out and have a last minute run of collecting more of these little Hidden Creatures, but ended up a bit short of the magic 100. Lovely winter's sunshining day, with very few muggles, and just a couple of nasty DNFs - making for a very successful and enjoyable day's caching.
Spent a while searching the wrong area. My GPS had the coords about 10m distant to the listed ones. Try S32 09.877 E115 51.826. The container is a micro, too, not small.
Many thanks for your cache wellsy21.

Container and log are both in good nick; as you'd expect. Thanks for setting this one up wellsy21, it's all tucked away safe and warm in readiness for the next finder.
Co-ords for me were a little off but continued to search GZ and found well hidden cache. TFTH.
I searched through the garden and found parts of two plastic containers. I eventually found the green container too and signed it’s log. Thanks.
Out with B12
wellsy21 We found your cache Duck Hunt 2 thanks for placing this cache for myself and others to find.

Took a while to get the right Coors's loaded. Lots of hiding places here. Tftc
Another afternoon run for some caches after picking up some new clothes for the geo-sons.
Took a little bit to finally get this one, found quite a few containers but none with log sheets.
Took a seat and read some previous logs and had a reach about the place and voila, signing duties complete and I was on my way, TFTC.

A quick find in a lovely park.
Out and about clearing up some recently published caches before the rains arrive.
TFTC wellsy21 this is find # 4775 for us.

2nd visit (only 29kms from home) Hmmmm NEF now that the coords are 75m closer. TFTC wellsy21
Thanks to the two teams for the updated coordinates. The cache title made more sense with this GZ and it was a quick find. Tftc
(chwiliwr team catch up log)
After the Mundijong event and the group of caches nearby that we did with Luna Maya we came back this way on the way home to do a few more caches that we had missed in the area. This was the third of them.
Chwiliwr knew that there was problems with cachers not finding this cache and on arrival found OOH YEH looking around ground zero. After asking if she had found it we discussed the coordinates being the same for the decimal so Chwiliwr decided to look up the coordinates for the old cache based on his old find log as this new cache was supposed to be replacing it. He found that we were some distance away in what turned out to be a more logical spot. Chwiliwr searched one side and had no luck so we joined OOH YEH on the other and soon Chwiliwr had his hand on the cache. Was a blank log so*FTF* jointly with Chwiliwr and OOH YEH.
Log signed and cache returned as found.

Spent awhile at this location with two other teams but have come up empty handed. Gz had us in the grass area. We expanded our search area but after 40mins we have given up on this one for now.
*FTF* with Chwiliwr at 3.40pm
I noticed there was DNFS on this cache but decided to go and have a look myself. Searched for a while and with no luck I was about to leave when Chwiliwr turned up and asked if I had found it. I told him I hadn't but had been told by another cacher that the S and E Both had the same last three numbers which didn't seem right. After working out where the original cache was it didn't take Chwiliwr long to spot the new cache and rectify the co-ords. The container was a micro not a small TFTC wellsy21
