This was so fun for me and my little sisters and cousin. It took us a few minutes to find it but was still worth it. Thanks to whoever put it here.

I was in New Lynn helping a friend move house and had time to grab a couple of caches on my way home. It was a bit of a hobble to gz as Ive injured my knee and once at gz I found this one on the ground. So after I had found my way to the log and signed it I returned the cache to where it should be as per the hint.

My taller companion soon made the found. We joked about how some passers by might think it was a stash of drugs. Very clever cache and nicely decorated. A lot of effort gone into this. Fav point given. Thanks.
 
Found it, but on the ground. Put it back in accordance with the hint, nearby to where we found it (head height in gum). Loved the jar stack!

TfTc very inventive!

We were in the area to complete a multi, and it would be rude to ignore a few trads close by. I was glad of the hint about the knot, especially with the other litter around, so it was a very quick find. Well, finding the cache was quick, finding the log took a bit longer. It reminds me of a cache I own, only this one has far more layers and pretty pictures on the layers.

I took an afternoon walk from my daughter's place to the park to find this cache. I had a pretty good idea what I'd be looking for and was not disappointed. Thanks for the fun and TFTC, Biggles.

Caching and catching up out west with Team Welsh this morning.
Neither of us had found this one, so we headed over to check it out. We enjoyed the stroll on a rare sunny winter's morning, and made a quick find of the container. Then the fun began. Nice to find something a little bit different. Adding a Favourite point, thanks.

Last cache of the day today and everywhere we have been seems to be a busy place with sports and this was no exception. Mrs kc found a parking spot and we donned our boots to walk over to gz. Cache soon located (no longer secured) but wedged in nicely. Had lots of fun with what we found inside and thanks for something a bit different.

24-Jun-23
Had been a while since we had cached (since we exhausted our scooter battery radius around our house !) then we saw a new one pop up from rusty. It was spitting a little but it didn’t stop us. Also dropped off some painted rocks at the same time.

This is an awesome one, very cool. Thank you

Righto... this cache! I meant to come and claim FTF on this one when it popped out, but I had been indulging in the fruit of the vines at the time and it apparently told me I was unable to drive, such a shame, bad timing was all that was...lol. So my other little buddy, not the C.O but her hubbie got the prize here.

So today, it was a gorgeous day and so warm and so I thought I'd pick this up on my way home. So glad I did, I got out my e-bike from my van and cycled to GZ. Not sure what I was to expect, and after a brief search, I found something worth staring at. Aaahhh haaah! This looks interesting.

Got to grips with what I saw, and I couldn't stop smiling, OK, that comes out, oh wait! That comes out... oh wait there's more, that comes out too...lol. This is such a fun cache rusty, I really, really enjoyed it and it was my fav for the day. So simple but also so cool.

Then seeing as I was having so much fun, I popped over to her place to say hi after texting her to see if she was home (she was) and we had a great chat for a few more hours, thank you for the hide rusty. Either my last FP I can give or the 2nd to last, well deserved too. I have to get out and cache a bit to earn more FP's.

BTW, it WAS my last FP...lol.

MrsJag finished work early and being a beautiful Autumn day, she detoured to Archibald Park to find this cache. Having visited this park previously, the best parking spot was soon located and after passing the great playground, was soon at gz.
The cache was quickly located and a nice spot by the Whau River was found to discover the Matryoshka dolls.
Thanks Rusty for a fun cache.
 
05-Jun-23
Very cool Russian dolls idea.
