2 /20 for today’s adventure. On my journey to 1000 finds and working to clear my local map.

This one took some poking around but eventually turned it up. TFTC.

Headed out to this one today, and fortunately the area was nice and dry, but with all the floods…would the cache still be there! After a first pass through, it wasn’t looking too good, however, a second closer look found the cache buried a little deeper under sticks and leaves. Great little spot for the hide.

**This Cache:**

Took a couple minutes to locate this, those are some BIG marbles! In the end DSD came across the hide!

Thanks

---

**Today:**

*ALL CACHES signed as " **AB!** " for Adventure Boys! which today included Loci612, DSD and Sui_001 to save time and space in logs, and also dated 21/6 at minimum.*

With a day off work, myself, DSD and Sui_001 decided on a daytrip to tackle a small section of the "TRLT" series, and surrounding caches. We left Canberra at 6am and got back at 6pm sharp making it a 12 hour round trip! I managed to bag 70 finds for the day, a huge amount can't remember the last time I got that many without being at a mega event anyway!

It was a very successful day, with only one DNF from memory and a couple others skipped due to having along strings of them. My favourite part was driving up Mount Macquarie with spectacular views! We visited towns such as Cowra, Woodstock, Lyndhurst, Carcoar, Blayney, Barry and Neville.

Thanks to all CO's!

"Food was cold, the burrito was so poorly wrapped that it looks like it was just scrunched up in a ball and it fell apart whilst trying to eat it. There were no serviettes to clean up the mess created by the explosion the bad wrapping created. There was too much garlic sauce that made it even messier to clean up. I felt that the burrito artist had very little idea what an actual burrito looks like and how it's meant to function in the whole fast-food convenience world. The one saving grace was that it actually tasted like a burrito. I will not be ordering from this store again for quite some time."

Do you think you're living an ordinary life? You are so mistaken it's difficult to even explain. The mere fact that you exist makes you extraordinary. The odds of you existing are less than winning the lottery, but here you are. Are you going to let this extraordinary opportunity pass?

At that moment he had a thought that he'd never imagine he'd consider. "I could just cheat," he thought, "and that would solve the problem." He tried to move on from the thought but it was persistent. It didn't want to go away and, if he was honest with himself, he didn't want it to.

She patiently waited for his number to be called. She had no desire to be there, but her mom had insisted that she go. She's resisted at first, but over time she realized it was simply easier to appease her and go. Mom tended to be that way. She would keep insisting until you wore down and did what she wanted. So, here she sat, patiently waiting for her number to be called.

Today I managed to find 75 Caches for the day with my friend Sui_001 & Loci612. It was an amazing day of caching. We had 2x DNFs for the day. We spent a total of 12 hours caching before I had to head home to do daddy duties. One of the highlights for the day was finding some Persons Tree Frogs near one of the caches that we found. Lots of driving to find the caches today. In fact it was 636 kms in total. I love geocaching so much and the friends I have made along the way make it all worthwhile. Thanks for all the caches and sorry for the generic log for this cache, but with 75 finds today it is hard to write a different one for each cache.

ALL CACHES FOUND TODAY WERE SIGNED DSD OR DARKSIDEDAN OR AB OR ADVENTURE BOYS. MOSTLY ALL CACHES WERE IN GOOD CONDITION WITH LOTS OF ROOM IN THE LOGBOOK UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED. THANKS FOR THE CACHE AND THE ADVENTURE. I HAVE INCLUDED SOME RAMDOM PHOTOS WITH THIS LOG. THE PHOTOS ARE NOT ABOUT THIS CACHE SO NO POINT LOOKING AT THEM THINKING THAT THEY ARE A SPOILER PHOTO.

I have included my one of a kind Geocache Poem with this log for future readers to enjoy.
Geocache Poem
By DARKSIDEDAN

My endless search goes on and on
Looking for treasures of every kind
Always chasing just one more find
Putting past DNF’s out of my mind
I step out into the world outside,
Seeking what is hidden from me
What size, shape or form will it be?
Only time will tell, I can’t wait to see
Will I find my prize at the end?
I will search in the failing light and cold
Filling with despair having looked everywhere
Where is this thing that gives my life pleasure?
Looking all around from every angle
I read the logs and check the hint
I curse out loud as I walk in circles
Screaming the bloody thing it not there
As time flies by and I fail to see,
Never once stopping to realize
It always been there before my eyes
No need for sorrow, there’s the Geocache.

I am currently writing more detailed logs than usual. This is because of a challenge provided by Project-GC called "The Author" Badge. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to write an average of one hundred words or more in each Found It log. As of 9th November 2020 my average was 160 words per log, which seems close to the 200 words per log target. However given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After 7600 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including yesterday), the average log length is just over 160 words. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task before this year ends. Progress has been better than anticipated.

Parked about 70m to the north-west where it was safer to do so. So many places this could have been hidden around here.

Thanks for helping make a fantastic trail in beautiful countryside. TFTC.

Staying for a few days in Millthorpe, this was our first opportunity to attempt some of this impressive trail. All attempted today were found, some after a bit of a hunt. All were in good conditon.

Apologies for the generic logs which in no way devalues the effort which has gone into placing and maintaining this series and also our enjoyment.

Final day of our long weekend to try and finish off the remaining TRLT series with Rapidlywild. Probably not the best time to go with rain and snow forecast, but we have never let the weather stop us before. So packed all the winter woollies, thermals, gloves and beanies and off we went.
We nearly got all the elements over the weekend even in one day snow, rain, fog, sun and wind but there was also some pleasant weather thrown in there for good measure. Roads in some places were a little hair raising but the trusty 4WD got us through safe and sound.

With permission from some of the cache owners we replaced saturated logs and on a few occasions caches.
All in all a good and successful long weekend away, lovely looking countryside and views along the way.

Thanks for the hide and adding to the fun WaywardWoman and thanks for another fun filled weekend away RWLD.
 
05-Jul-20
Last month, FFLL and I begun the tackle against the TRLT series and managed to get a huge chunk done. Well, we decided we wanted to get it finished so with snow on the forecast, we bit the bullet and packed the thermals and set off to have some fun. We had rain, fog, frost and even snow but it was an awesome weekend for sure Big Grin We reached out to the cache owners of the ones we had to complete to inform them of our intentions and also advise that we were happy to complete replacement maintenance if required, so we came across a few that after extensive searches, we didnt locate, so we replaced as approved by the CO. A large number of replacement log sheets left along the way also to assist with the caches with soggy log books.

Lots of places visited across the weekend, including lots of old churches and old cemeteries across the land.

Thanks for the hide WaywardWoman Big Grin And thanks to the FFLL ladies for another fun weekend out and about the TRLT trails and others Big Grin

Another trip around TRLT series to do the latest few sections.
Some of the roads are VMLT (Very Much less travelled) and that's a good thing.
Mainly good safe hides and nice quick finds. Wink

OCW frazerdaze and marj01. House sitting at White Rock for a week has provided an opportunity to do some geocaching runs around Bathurst - mainly TRLT series indispersed with a number of trads and puzzle caches. During the day we saw lovely scenery, lots of sheep and cattle, a few foxes and one deer in the forestry area. We even encountered fire persons doing a burn off which included two of the caches we were chasing. Please excuse the generic logs and thanks to all the CO's for placing the caches and adding to our enjoyment. For expediency all logs were signed OMF.

Decided to take an afternoon drive along TRLT.
All caches were quick finds and in good condition.
The dirt section was very corrigated and gave the suspension a workout.

Third big day around Bathurst, finishing of the TRLT trail and picking up multis and puzzles. Finally the weather is a bit more human but still warm.

It was time for a big weekend caching, so I was joined by Fitzy_1965 and MinnieK for two days to tackle the new TRLT caches just East of Bathurst, This part of the trip went smoothly. I also managed to squeeze in a few more on the day after whilst traveling between the rain on Monday.

Thanks.

Headed out for a weekend of caching with fitzy_1965 and Albida33 to collect all the new sections of TRLT series and a few caches in-between. Signed as AMF for the weekend.

Made Trunkey Creek showground our base camp for two nights and cached our way around the area from there. A bit of a sleep in this morning and pack up camp before heading off for the day.

All caches found quickly unless otherwise stated.

16,764. Found with minniek and albida33 on a fantastic run around the area over 2 days.

When we saw the new sections of TRLT Series published we made them a priority to do asap. Having cached around the region many times and knowing how beautiful it is we were really looking forward to it. Drove up Friday night and we camped at the Trunkey Creek Showground. Yesterday we found over 80 of the new ones then went back to camp. This morning after packing up we headed off to try for the rest of them. This was the next of many caches. Quick find once at GZ. Signed the log, replaced the cache and we headed off to the next one.

Thanks WaywardWoman !! We appreciate your contribution to this great series, especially the nicely set up caches !

TNLN - TFTC !! Apologies for the generic logs :-

On a road trip with EverestHigh and MaxAdventurer grabbing these new TRLT caches. This was an enjoyable trail with good hides and decent containers at GZ. Thanks to all the COs for going to the effort of placing these caches.

At GZ MA tried to climb the slippery surface without success.

We even passed another group of cachers heading in the opposite direction! The road was a little more travelled today. TFTC

It was time to go caching again and hunt for another section of TRLT caches. These ones were all quite easy to find and there were lots of different trade items to interest kids. The cache titles were also most appropriate for each one. The log book for each one soon had our name added and each cache was returned to its position before we moved on. Our thanks go to WaywardWoman for this part of the series.
