I looked everywhere for a log behind posy and looked in the trees and around the facility and did not find it

Driving from Richmond to Springwood and picking up some caches along the way. With so many caches to choose from, I randomly selected a number of caches that did not require a lot of bushwalking.
I remember the Village People. They were very popular in the days that I frequented the disco's (for our younger readers: that is what we called a club back in the days).
Darn those were the days. Now I was running out of steam while I negotiated the many steps

Don't know what's wrong with Martin cousins, that was really easy!
Not so easy coming off the highway at the right spot when heading westward to park as close as possible to GZ. Missed the correct turn and had to do a bit of a tour round Warrimoo before I ended up back near the pedestrian overpass.
Once the geomobile was settled I was able to test my bung leg on all those steps. It's working much better this week.
I walked GZ just as a train came in. Spotted everything mentioned in the hint and the cache.
Nooooo - no pen in my bag.
I thought I was going to have to walk all the way back to the geomobile for a replacement. Fortunately before I had begun the step climb I realised there was a nice sharp pencil inside the cache. Well done, WaywardWoman, saved my leg.

Too good for me today or gone, idk, spent all my time up stairs before calling it quits
Tftc, I'm glad this cache got replaced, and the surrounding area has been cleaned up an was one aswell!
A temporary container has been placed until I can source a new one . Cache on!
Dnf bc it looked like there was no cache near the log so it might need maintenance
After completing a new-ish AL at Springwood, I decided to grab a few caches around the area before taking on another at Mt Riverview that I haven't done yet. A straightforward find here ... thanks to WW for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
Easy little park and grab. The cache is in good condition, signed and replaced. Thanks WaywardWomen for placing the cache.
After carer's responsibilities reduced my finds in 2021 to a single cache and only one other in 2032 I am now back in the saddle. Second of elevenen finds this afternoon.

We are on another short (three day) caching holiday in Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains, staying for two nights in a park cabin at the Ingenia Nepean River BIG4 Holiday Park at Emu Plains. Hoping to collect the latest GFA puzzle & Wherigo caches around Luddenham & Wallacia, a leftover WGA puzzle cache at Warragamba, some leftover PGA puzzle caches at Penrith, two Adventure Labs in the lower Blue Mountains, plus any other caches we happen upon during our travels.
When we booked the holiday cabin a month ago there was no predictions of the flooding rains that the area was to experience during the past week, so we are unsure of exactly what of the previously planned caching locations will actually be accessible on this trip. This was our 1st find of the day (day 2), and 11th find of the holiday.
On our way up the mountains to start an Adventure Lab at Valley Heights we stopped off at this cache for our first cache stop of the day. Used the pedestrian overbridge to cross the highway and reach GZ, where the cache was a nice quick find. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC WaywardWoman.

Find #5376
I’m not sure if I just didn’t look hard enough but I could not see anything there and I couldn’t even properly check as it was on the bridge
Out on an afternoon walk up through the park with the dogs I send geomum in for the search, she was over the moon with the find.
Thanks Wayward woman hope you had a wonderfully Christmas and all the best in 2022

A nice quick find on my day walk in my local area. Have been intending to do this one for some time but always had the dog with me. He is not so crazy about the geocaching.
Thanks heaps for the distraction during this crazy times.
Love the epic camo

We needed a geocache close to home to earn the International Geocaching Day souvenir so this cache fitted the bill perfectly. Nobody around stations these days so it was a quick find. TFTC
Walk to the shop for some lollies and a detour across the bridge fo a geocache. 4 Clifthangers along for the trip. Its been a nice way of exercising during lockdown. TFTC
Lockdown caused some delays in getting back to the Mountains. Happy to finally make the trek back and mark this one as found. Thanks for the cache check WW.
Missing- The yellow Village person is no longer. I have placed a film canister in its place. Cache on!
I'm the village idiot today. There's a log behind the post but not the one it's not the log I'm looking for
#7850 (1 of 14 today including 5 Adventure Labs)
Yet another day in April where my calendar finds are low, so headed up the Blue Mountains for some numbers.
Problem is, when up here quality over quantity always takes hold, and today was no exception. Did three bush caches in Warrimoo, one of which was unfound in almost 2 years - where is everyone?
The day ended badly, though with a DNF and a bad calc on a multi- still not sure where I went wrong there, but I'm confident some person's bedroom is not GZ.
On the bright side, I made my 100th Virtual find! HUZZAH!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
"It's fun to stay at the..."
Thanks to this cache, I had that song running through my head all day!
Parked at the shops and walked over the highway.
Nice quick find at GZ (cute container), and with no one around signed, replaced and headed back to the car.
Good start to the day.

Quick find after parking legally. A bus came to collect a waiting muggle, but they were too busy on their phone to be interested in what I was up to. Cute camo. TFTC
quick find with Ris768 just as it started to rain, thanks WaywardWoman for placing & maintaining this cache

TYFTC. Very cute cache!

A very wet morning, so decided to take DinomusPrime to do a few caches!!! A quick find. Another one in the fun themed series of caches. Signed log and returned as found.
Found the log and a great place on where it could be hidden but no cache.
Might need to be checked

Went looking for this but was unlucky. Messaged the owner and it had been muggled but we were in the right spot so we were told it could be a found one. Thanks and very sorry this cache has been muggled. It really sucks when that happens.

Second cache for the day, on our way to buy new school shoes. And once again, Monkey Girl was ahead of me and spotted the cache before I could get to it. She was on a roll today.

I parked in the side road to the west of GZ and had a short walk along the path for an easy find.
Caching with oldmorty on our way to Blackheath.
Nice quick find after generous hint.

Up from Sydney to stay at Blackheath for the weekend with frazeydaze and time to visit the latest offerings from the CO - "The Village People" series. After lunch at Glenbrook it was time to start hunting - unfortunately I didn't check to see that the Glenbrook cache had been re-enabled. Not to worry, something to do on the way home on Sunday. The four caches found this afternoon were at Lapstone, Blaxland, Warrimoo and Valley Heights. Thanks for this fun series WaywardWoman and I'm looking forward to more in this series.
Parked close by. Good hint at gz meant a quick find. No hint, would make this a lot harder to find. Signed and replaced. Tftc

Popped up as I was leaving work and wondered if I might be thwarted for the honours like I was this morning in Glenbrook. Of course the traffic was slow, but not as slow as me getting up those stairs to the bridge. I’ll take the ramp next time. Tftc WW!

I just had time for one more before dinner and made the crossing for a quick find.
