I looked high, I looked low but I couldnt find a place where my squiggle should go
This one beat me today, didn't have a lot of time to spend looking. Thank you for the challenge heidiseeki.
Two out of three from the QE series so far. Hopefully we can keep the smiley theme on a roll

Quick find here - a quick detour to find a few caches on the way home from a weekend kayaking on the Blackwood river Tftc
Today I looked at what I would look for and my eyes went to Busselton. I saw two DNFs that I could possible avenge.
Way back I came along this road to collect these caches. This was one I could not find. In the meantime it has been replaced and it’s been on my to-do list ever since.
The weather was looking good, until I arrived in Busselton, when it started to rain. I managed to squeeze off the road and went in to look for the cache. This didn’t take too long because of the way I came in. The cache was clearly in sight from my angle of approach.
One DNF avenged, on to the next.

This was a nice easy cache to find after arriving at GZ with ilook4geo. It was only a selection of the caches available that we headed for today and we are happy to be able to claim a find here after signing both names on the log. Thanks for this cache go to heidiseeki.
Out for some more caching around Busselton with goingplaces2 and this was on our target list for the day. The container was found, the log was signed, all was replaced as found. Job done! TFTC.
We had to do these caches on the Queens Jubilee weekend. Looking in all the wrong places at first. TFTC
FINALLY, got around to find this cache or confirm it's loss. It was there but had been separated from it's suspension and was covered by a tangle of long grass. It has been removed and a replacement installed. Very slight correction to coordinates. The published coordinates updated. Happy hunting. QEIII is back on the throne.
A few too many DNFs so I'll check it out within a couple of weeks when I get home
With the previous DNFs I didn’t hold out too much hope for finding this cache. And so it was no surprise that I came up empty handed after a good search.
Couldn't locate this one today despite a 10 minute search. Ah well, Onto the next
Finally our girls weekend has arrived Kapelula, Meme28, Geotrekka and I C Nothing are heading south with four full days of caching to celebrate some birthdays and geo milestones. We have been puzzling like crazy in preparation so our aim is to find those caches and everything else that takes our fancy. Maybe even a challenge or two. Signed log as Kameingt.
Found after a short search whilst out on an extended weekend road trip to Busselton, Dunsborough and surrounds with I C Nothing, Meme28 and geotrakka. Signed log as KAMEINGT.
Heading south with Kapelula ICNothing and geotrakka (KAMEINGT) on our girls weekend.
Another smiley after standing right next to it!

Away on a girls weekend to Bussleton with ICnothing, Kapelula and meme28. Hoping to hit some milestones during our adventures. Signing as a team this weekend KAMEINGT. Thank you to all the COs for placing their caches along the way for is to enjoy.
Find 18 of 19 with 7 DNFs on a mountain bike tour of Busso. A few cricketing and golf puzzles were solved just before our departure and Sunday targetted for having a look while the place was relatively quiet, which was a good move or we might have had a few more DNFs!
Parked up, nice quick find. Drove off, sounded like the car had been decorated with "just married". Must remember that low slung cars don't mix with the overgrown verges. Took half a tree for a nice long ride.
TFTC heidiseeki!

Was thinking this was going to be my second DNF of the day but luckily with the fading light I had my trusty torch with me and managed to get a glint off the hide in my third trip past the cache.
Thanks heidiseeki for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 2318 for me.

With the relaxation of the Covid-19 isolation and regions rules our minds turned to Geocaching. After some hasty arrangements we headed south to meet up with richlink.
While the 'links were catching up with family, we set out to clean up some of the unfound caches in the area. This was one of those caches, thanks heidiseeki

Quick drive by fortunately as it's getting quite warm and the deal was I kept the motor and aircon running while she hopped out and logged it.
Interesting fishing , no horse in the paddock today. At least the weather is lovely thanks
Been staying down at Bussleton at he Catholic youth camp for a week and popped out today to grab a few more caches. Thanks for the cache heidieseeki. This was a quick park and grab for me.
What to do on the last day of the year? Cache of course. Quick clean up of the areas trads. Took some hunting but my fishing was successful. TFTC
Hi there heidiseeki.
We found your cache **"QE III"** at 7:27:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 23700).
The day promised to be another warm one, so we decided that logging some caches around Busselton would be a good idea. We started in Queen Elizabeth road, and then logged a few more caches using a "next closest" method. We thoroughly enjoyed our drive, walks and the scenery - even though the flies were particularly "sticky" today.. We found 10 caches & DNF'd 0.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.
Thank you heidiseeki for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

I had some time off work and decided to get away for a couple of nights camping and caching. I love this part of the State so there was no hesitation about my destination for the adventure. This cache was one I stopped for along the way. Cheers and TFTC.

I have had this series on my radar ever since it was published but this is the first opportunity we have had to come & look for them. TFTC heidiseeki
Hi there heidiseeki. While out on the road today we found this cache after a short search - and the container and log are in good condition. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to heidiseeki for this cache - our find 7838
We returned to Bussellton last Tuesday to locate another 12 puzzle caches from the original Arrow series. Success on all but 1 so we are feeling very happy with ourselves. To celebrate we took on the QE series before heading home. Success on all of them but not all fell into the park and grab category.
Thanks for the caches all of which were found in good condition.

It was getting pretty warm as we made our way along the road. This gz had some longish grass so we were on the look out for nasties as we searched. Not easy to spot immediately but we got there in the end. Thanks heidiseeki
Decided on a trip down south with redlipsandunicorns and Barnzy12 to pick up some caches. Managed to turn a few blue dots into smileys and the main caches were the QE series which all were found except for one due to a dead animal at GZ and it really stinks so we gave up searching. Picked up a couple on the way back in the bunbury area and the last one in San Remo before heading home. Left home at 6.30am and was back at home by 4pm so was pretty happy with the days efforts. Thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches

Headed down to Busselton and the surrounding area today with OOH YEH and RLAU to cleanup a bunch of the newly published caches. Good fun and good company, that’s what caching is about!
Thanks to the local COs for their caches.

Well done Pood I have a feeling that we expected your tag at the top of the list.
Wow - a lovely surprise Heidiseeki, and a bonus #FTF#.
We saw the email come through and time to spare, we easily ducked down the road to find this cache and after seeing the Cruiseship in Geographe Bay the other day, it’s very fitting to see some caches in honour of the Royals, especially as this is the Avenue named after the Queen.
