Howard needs some love and attention. His logsheet is wet and the container damaged.Thanks Granett for giving us Howard

H

The cache is quite damaged but still largely one one piece. Thanks!

With the event in Treebry later on, I decided to make the most of the trip SOR, and spend the afternoon collecting some more of the Granett caches in the bushland here. 38 degrees, 4 hours, and 12km on foot later, I have just shy of 30 new smileys on my map. Some of the logs signed as JK. I quite liked the Big Bang Theory caches as I am a great fan of the show. Thanks for the hides.

Done a bit tricky

Found it. Log a little wet termites having a blast

Log is a bit damp, but ziplock bag doing a good job.

Quick find here. Cache is a little water logged but the zip lock bag is doing a good job protecting the cache. TFTC

Enjoying an afternoon stroll around bushland near Canning Vale and Piara Waters, to begin a long overdue process to clean up the map.

Track for this series was at times tough work, due it being very sandy. The smell of Richgro was also quite pungent. All caches were in fine condition unless otherwise mentioned. Cheers Granett!

Join me at the 10th anniversary of WAGB in Narrogin on Friday 2 June to Monday 5 June 2023. There’ll be plenty of geocaching fun to be had, I can’t wait to see you there!

Apart from taking the wrong path this was a quick easy find.

Thank you. I headed this way today to find a specific cache that would complete a challenge I was keen to cross off the list. Figured I'd look for a few more while in the area. Happy to make the find here.

We chose another part of this regional park to go for a walk with ilook4geo on this beautiful winter's day. Found all the caches in this section and enjoyed the track walking involved. All logs were signed and caches were put back into place before we wandered on again. Thanks go to Granett for placing this series.

Came along on a walk with goingplaces2. It was a successful time with all caches found. Lovely day to be out caching. TFTC.

Wow - what a day. The mantra was quantity, not quality (however there were many many quality caches and very few simple finds) and thus DNFs had a much lower tolerance than normal. The day was split into 3 sections. Part 1 - 6.5km bike ride, 11 finds and 1 DNF. Motoring! Part 2 - 21km ride, 13 finds and 7 (!) DNFs. Very despondent. Part 3 - 4km walk, 15 finds and no DNFs but pretty pooped by now.

Find 38 of 39. Having bashed these areas over the last 2 weeks looking for Dark Energy caches, this was an absolute pleasure! The daughter who wouldn't be seen dead geocaching even said (once I got home) that she would have helped as she's the BBT fan in our house. Bit late dear....

All good here.

TFTC Granett

We got it Howie! Long bath when I get home... TfTSeries

#13 of the series... caching with Mocchiandfriends.....TFTC

Hi Hrannett, a quick find here, cache is in good nick but the host is looking very shabby due to termites tftc

Nice one barry!!

Great spot but long walk I recommend!

Just couldn't find. Pretty sure we checked everywhere!

Quick find here, showers are coming and going. TFTH

I passed a couple of horse riders on my way to this one, TFTC

Made the trek directly through the bush from the road... wouldn't recommend as it is very thick in places! Stick to the sand tracks adjacent

TFTC SL

A beautiful day for a stroll after a month of rain. All good here. First entry in the new log sheet. Thanks Granett for the series.

New log and baggy added.

Found this one without issue. Raining today, so didn't manage to dodge all the showers, but all good. Enjoyed the walk. Unfortunately the log is wet and very difficult to sign. I managed to sign using a different pen, but the log and baggy need replacing... Realed as carefully as I could and replaced as found. Tftc Granett

Needs a little check as unfortunately the log is wet and very difficult to sign. Perhaps a new baggy too. Thanks

5th find of the day while collecting most of this series with the geo-gogs. Log was pretty wet after the recent range, still able to sign (just...) TFTC

Great spot

Easy peasy.

Thank you for the Big Bang Theory series, we had a good time completing it and finding your caches today, let the kids hold the phone & lead the way a few times, cleaned up some rubbish too while we were out this way. A good fun family day out

The GPS took me further into the bush that needed and then slowly brought me back to the cache. Coordinates were perfect. I was reading between zero and 1m when at the cache.

All TBBT caches found. Thanks for the series I enjoyed it

Found

Found it

Thanks for a great walk, another easy find tftc
Haven't been caching in ages and so I decided that now the weather is cooler and covid seems to be under control (well here in WA anyway!) That I would get out and find some

Found thank you

Another nice find.

Added something new

Braved the weather this morning and decided to tackle the soft sand! All's good here TFTC and series

Did the extended walk trail through the bush thanks

4rhd for the day TFTC

The last but not least. Thank you for this nice walk around the park!

Headed up to the big smoke today for a bit of "suburban caching". We hadn't made a set plan as to which caches we would target, just a rough area to start on, and this series were along the way. Thankfully the weather today was considerably cooler than it had been in over the previous week, so that walk along the sandy tracks wasn't too onerous. Sadly I have watched The Big Bang Theory more times than I care to remember, being one of my son's favourite television series. No problems finding this one. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache and the rest of the series for us and others to come and find Granett. Dropped off another trackable to continue its journey from here.

Hi there Granett. I was out with Mistraluna for a days Geocaching. I had found two of this series yesterday, but revisited them today in company. This cache was one hunted and the container and log are in good condition. Thanks to Granett for this cache.

My feet are the dirtiest they have ever been!!

Was searching for a cache big enough to place two trackables nearby Cockburn and find this one not too far away.

Trecked the 300m of dirt carrying my 17 month old on the day after the hottest recorded day in November (so it was still pretty warm!). Found cache, placed trackables but have no pen with me so had to take a picture instead.

Thanks

Tftc

Easy find

A beautiful day forecast so Deefa71 and I both took Mental Health days to come tackle the Big Bang theory series. I'm not a huge fan of the show but we enjoyed the walk today. Took the resident TB. TFTC

Oh Howie. Always last. Time for a drink. Nice series. Thank you. With familysteiner

Tftc

Another quick find. Thank you for this nice little series of straight forward, no nonsense caches. Very enjoyable. Saw a group of roos and little joey! Greetings from Northern Ireland. Well done.

Out with The Jokers to knock off my mystery souvenir after starting it just yesterday with 42 finds out on some geoart, just need 15 for today, this is find 5 for today so almost there.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache Granett you help make this game what it is.

Cheers for the cache

AlliedOz

Out with AlliedOz for a few finds today
Cache found in good condition

TheJokersOz Thanks for the cache

all good here before the rain arrives. cache and log in good condition

Completed the BBT Series of caches today with Bianca, Ava, Leila, Georgia, Max and Little Vinnie.
This was number 11 out of 11 today.
Thanks for this series great for an afternoon walk

Second one today
TFTC.

With the log signed the series was completed. A really nice walk but I don't understand why I saw so many discarded Muzz Buzz cups littered around. Is there a drive though here somewhere? Odd. TFTC and series. I will give this one a fav for the collective series.

Had an hour to spare after grabbing some nearby Dark Energy caches today, so thought i might try and knock this series off before school pickup. Parking at the suggested co-ords and headed down the very soft, sandy track to this one. A quick find once at GZ and the log was signed.
TFTC Granett

A lovely brisk walk/run until I hit the soft sand. There was a tree down over the track at one stage so I got to experience a little tree climb too. I loved the size of the containers; generally larger than what I see. Thanks for the series; especially that it mostly sticks close to well formed tracks.

Came over today to walk this series as it’s a little cooler today and perfect for a bush walk somewhere new. The fact I’m a huge Big Bang fan was just a bonus I also wanted to use this shorter series to recce the park conditions as I’m hoping to be back tomorrow for a visit to the Federation I had a lovely walk with the geohound and while some tracks in the southern parts of the park were very soft sand it was generally easy going All 10 caches in the series were found without any problems and all are in good condition. Saw a few roos too Apologies for the cut & paste log but I appreciated the series and really enjoyed the walk TFTC

Up early to do this Big Bang Theory series of caches. Quick find here, thank you for this series

Out to find the 9 caches in this area on a lovely Saturday. Geodogs are having a great time. Nice, quick find and cache is in great condition. TFTC!

Quick find with Me&B. Glad this at the end as it is starting to get warm.

Nice quick find on a lovely Saturday morning.

TFTC

A cool change in the weather so a perfect time to take a stroll around this nice little series. All caches were found in good condition. A fave here for the series.
TFTC Granett this is find # 5968 for us.

Last of an excellent series thanks Granett, nice hides and spot on coords for all of these. Howard was found 10:40 am. Was hoping to do the Star Trek series as well today but getting a little too warm .
TFTC Pete&maz

We saw these published a couple of months back and decided to wait to make sure that the area was covered before making a start of them. Today was a touch muggy but not too hot so it was good to make our way out here to change the mass of green dots to Yellow ones. Thanks for a fun afternoon Granett; well done.

[:o)]

As the year draws to a close, I thought I would take the nothing to do day and grab some caches. I could achieve the new Souvenir and increase the finds for my best yet year of this pasttime.

One of my favortie TV series, the re runs remain funny, so nice to have a caching series honouring this clever show. All the co ords were accurate, and the hints spot on to help the finds on this very hot day.


___________________________________________________________________

Thanks Granett for bringing me to this location. I found the cache at 11:30:00. This was my Find 24 for today out of a Total number of 37 Finds and 1 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I returned the cache as I found it.

This find brings my total number of Finds to 4445.

I saw these ones pop up some time ago but didn't have the opportunity to get out this way and then they started with the souvenirs so I save them up for this month.
The track has become very sand and the running is difficult, certainly getting a workout this morning. I run past this one an had to go back about 20m so a bit more of a workout for me.
TFTC Granett

It is done! The series finally completed. I got my water. Happy. Attempting the series is sort of warm up for me after a long recess of geocaching. This series is nothing like the Pranksters Devils or equivalent series that I’ve attempted before, but as said it is a warm up of just what is to come, just in case there’s another Pranksters Devils kind around the corner. I’ve found 9 out of 10 Granett’s caches today, but for the training it gives, for the incredible effort for setting up this series, a favourite is definitely justified here. SL TFTH.

Came into the area this morning to grab the new caches in the area, the only wildlife I came across today was Kangaroos, no snakes sighted that was a good thing, TFTH Granett SL.

The Better Half and I went for a drive and then a bit of a walk to do some newly published caches with some older ones in this area.

It didn't start well as the GPS played up by refusing to start up so we had to rely on the tablet until it decided to work on the last of the caches we did today.

All caches were found without problems. Logs signed and caches returned as found.

Thanks Granett for placing this cache for us to find.

(Catching up on some missing online logs from 2018)

Chwiliwr and I went for a drive and then a walk to do some newly published caches and others in the area. It didn't start well as the GPS was still playing up and refused to start up so had to rely on the tablet until it decided to work on the last few caches.

All caches were found without problems. Logs were signed and caches returned as found.

Thanks Granett for the cache.

Fave point for the series here!

After feeling a bit under the weather for the last few days it was nice to wake up with a bit of motivation to get outdoors and go caching! We headed to this series so that the dog could get some exercise too. This show is a firm favourite in our house. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there Granett, I was in this area today and found your cache Howard GC7ZBV5. I added my name to the log book at 8:41 am on 28 October 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This cache find brings our total find count to 10100. Woohoo!!

Lucky last for us and can't come soon enough as that dog is getting heavier. Sand is really hot even though only 25 degrees. Feels hotter as our red faces show. Howard found quickly and with our car in sight, we hurry on. Thanks for this terrific little series Granett. Nice to pick up a few without travelling to the ends of the earth, especially with the cost of petrol these days.

The Star Trek series across the road was right up my street but this one is much more PP1's cup of tea. An enjoyable walk on mainly good firm paths. TFTC Granett

thanks for the new series and the use of all the containers you won!

At time of publication I was attending a meeting down the road, so swung past here afterwards.
Thank you Granett.

Saw these get published so sent Mr OOH YEH out to grab them. All caches were found without any problems TFTC Granett

Attended a meeting nearby and once it was completed came down to attempt the rest of this series that was published whilst at the meeting. Thanks

FTF gone. Quick find with family and one whinging kid. TFTH
