Yay time for a Tuesday Trekking, For a trio of Geo animals.
The Starfish picked up the Rat from the Rat's nest.
We then made our to pick up the Snake from the Snake Pit.
Then changed cars, in to the snake mobile.
Our goal for today was to pick up any solved puzzles and anything that popped up on the map.
We made our way to Bobland,
The Snake parked the Snake mobile.
Followed the GPSr, to a circular wooded area.
We all stamped the logbook and returned the cache . Tftc
 
31-Jan-23
The Tuesday Trekking for members of the Befuddled Puzzle Solving group came around quickly and as usual the group set off in search of solved puzzles and anything else coming into view. Wink I picked up S.A. Sewer Rat from the rat's nest, then on to Blackadders den where we jumped into the Viper Mobile. [^] The it was off towards the Golden Northeast suburbs for a wander. Cool Not all of us required every cache so here are the caches I was able to put my name in the log. Razz

Quite a sneaky hide but we found it. Smile

***Thanks strangelooksDawsons for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

That weekly Tuesday Trek with the Befuddled came around again. A Starfish, Adder and the Rat once more targeted the North Eastern suburbs with the plan to seek more of the letterbox hides however, as usual, things don't go to plan. With many others around including a few high terrain prizes to get we did not find as many of the said letter boxes as we had liked.

All caches were is good condition unless stated otherwise.

Ok so a circular patch of wooded area confronted us, now how to get in without disturbing much of the flora?
We got as near to GZ as we could before entering when the Adder soon uncovered what we were seeking.

Thank you for the cache strangelooksDawsons Find Number 10359 on 31/01/2023

A great day with Michells&hound and JJ52. Someone once said Team Work makes the Dream Work. Today was the Dream Work. I had a fun time driving around the Northern suburbs and stopping to find caches. Listening to the cricket( Aussies beat South Africa in 2 days at the Gabba) while we traveled between caches. Beautiful weather.
 
18-Dec-22
A day out had been organised with Michells&hound and allister w heading out north for some letterboxes and newer caches that none of us had found. It was a good day for caching although did get a bit warm in the afternoon. We had a fun day and covered quite a bit of ground and only had one DNF which was good. [^]

By the time I found the way in to GZ the others had already found the cache. Big Grin

Thanks for the cache strangelooksDawsons. Smile
 
18-Dec-22
Fun day out with JJ52 and Allisterw hitting the bad lands for some dejavú finds, and many letterboxes and then onto the Northern suburbs to make a dent in our combined unfound caches there.
It was a perfect day for caching no scary critters and only 1 dnf. 40 finds for me which was a good haul.
Great team effort today!
The facilities are very impressive here once we found a way in it was a quick find TFTC

I’ve been around the world
A couple of times or maybe more
I’ve seen the sights, I’ve had delights
On every foreign shore
But when my mates all ask me
The place that I adore
I tell them right away

Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair

You can see me in the kitchen
Cooking up a roast
Or Vegemite on toast
Just you and me, a cup of tea
And later on, we’ll settle down
And go out on the porch
And watch the possums play

Give me a home among the gumtrees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two, a k-kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair

Cache retrieved and signed.

Thanks strangelooksDawsons for this cache.

We probably looked sus going into the bushes because there was some sort of event going on and slightly off key singing of the lyrics of "I am who I am" constantly non stop but thankfully they probably didn't see where we went thanks to the bushes .

Found during the Annual Father/Daughter Father's Day Geocaching Traditional Trip (yes its a week early due to Team Honda going on holiday).

The sun was shining, birds were singing and caches were being found

Father’s Day is early this year due to Team_Honda being out of state next week. Therefore the yearly Father / Daughter outing of Magic[8] and Team_Honda had to be brought forward a week.
On a beautiful Spring Day in Winter we set off to collect a few Yellow Faces, we collected 10 including this one.
Many thanks to the placement and ongoing maintenance for our enjoyment.

I recently completed the one cache find in each of the 360 degrees from home location challenge. I have now decided to continue and aim for five finds in each of the 360 degrees. Today I was targeting specific caches in missing cells for this challenge and a few solved mysteries along the way. Very enjoyable to be out and about in the glorious sunshine.

Thanks for the cache strangelooksDawsons.

A quick cache find on a lovely afternoon. No dogs today. A sheep or two. A kangaroo.

I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke für den Cache. Gracias por el caché. Bedankt voor de cache. Kiitos kätköstä. Zikomo posungira. Terima kasih untuk cache. Hvala cache. Köszönöm a cache. Nga mihi mo te keteroki. Dankie vir die kas.
