By FMH1977 on 21-Aug-24. Waypoint GCAWW3N

Found with catnap777 16 November 2024 10:10amClever clue....We needed it. Our weekend was based around hunting down a new Georig. We checked out a couple of car yards, and went for a couple of test drives, but walked away empty handed and went Geocaching instead. [:o)]Here we found a piece of paradise and a real sense of community. [^]We also found a cache. A wonderful place to explore. [^]TFTC&theAdLabTour FMH1977.

16 November 2024 10:09 Eventually found with dalerious. It took us a little bit to figure out the clever hint. Loved the simple cleverness of itCache soon in our hands when we had the ah ha moment.Thank you for bringing this area to our attention by providing the adlab and bonus cache. We really enjoyed the area. There was a market on today which brought the crowd in, but we managed to get everything done before it got too busy.Thank you FMH1977.

I had completed the AdLab on another day but came back today to collect the bonus. Such a great and busy place to wander around. Thanks for the Bonus.

I enjoyed my walk around the area collecting the clues to this cache. Once at GZ I looked and felt around for quite a while. When I thought I'd searched everywhere, I checked previous logs, then used a PAF. I was given a hint that turned out to be not quite right, but put me in the right area to search and find the cache in a place I'd searched earlier.Thanks to FMH1977 for the adlab and the bonus.

Thankyou for the Ad Lad, such a lovely area to wander around and great for the kids as well. TFTC

Found this one backwards with the assistance of the CO and some merry geocachers. I thought I had done the AdLab. Turned out I hadnt. Oops! Signed the log, then went to do the ALs. TFTC!

Group effort here. We worked out the required coordinates and crowded around at GZ trying not too look too suspicious. Some muffins were consumed on site as well. TFTC

Enjoyed the stroll around Ceres completing the Adventure Lab. With the information in hand and the coords calculated, headed off to get this bonus. Joined up with others who attended the Arlies event to make the find. TFTC FMH1977.

I enjoyed the wander around the gardens (with the CO giving a group a prsonalized tour) gathering the information required to calculate the coordinates. Once done we assembled at GZ located the cache and signed the log. Thank you FMH1977. A favourite point awarded.

A lovely wander around the gardens and a quick find on the way back to the car after the event. Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, FMH1977 ??~????????~

The CO gave a group of us a personalised tour of the ad lab and then we moved onto the bonus. A quick find was found with the clever hint. Good times. Have a FP.

We enjoyed our walk around the park gathering clued for the bonus cache coords. I particularly liked looking at the garden beds in the community garden. Lots of people here enjoying the day. We arrived back at the event location to do the final calculations for the cache and realised the group gathered at the same location were doing calculations so we all made our way to the WP with FHM1977 as our guide. A favourite point given. Thanks FMH1977 for the cache.

Caught up with the gang at gz here. Nice hide.

Grafted to find this one ! Had to even borrow a bed. Found by iamapom at 14:25 on 13/10/2024. Thanks to FMH1977 for the Mystery. This is Iamapoms find number 2884. Greetings from Melbourne Australia.

Grand Final Eve public holiday was deemed to be a day for geocaching. Ceres is such a relaxing place to wander around. I completed the adventure lab and collated the number for the bonus cache. At GZ the cache was found in a logical place after a short search. I could spend all day strolling around the gardens and nursery here.

Out and about with omegaman, there are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.This is one of the caches found today. A quick dash around and we were off to find the cache. Several bags of saw dust were piled in front of GZ making it a little tricky to retrieve.Thanks FMH1977 for the cache.

Out with au.fait on a Sunday drive, we stopped to do the AdLab at this wonderful place, then saw there was a bonus cache. We did the calculations and started our search, but needed a PAF to finally locate the sneaky cache. Thanks FMH1977.

11:24Overnight, a plan was hatched to steal the latest prize from under the noses of the First To Find gangs. It had languished at Ceres well into its second day by the time we'd had our breakfast shift in the prison boot factory.A few of us had come to this realisation, so we pooled resources.Once we escaped the work crew outside Pentridge, we headed to the getaway cars, trying not to draw too much attention. Finding places to stash the vehicles for our departure post-heist proved to be the trickiest part of the operation.RoamingHowie, BlackOpal2005, n0w0rries, Slowdog and I worked our way through the interesting waypoints to gather the information we needed, wandering hilariously back and forth past one point.The most logical hiding spot was indeed where we uncovered the booty, but it took a couple of sweeps before our joint **FTF** (#73) could be recorded.The shared experience made it all the more fun.Thanks, FMH1977. Nice to get one here in daylight.Now for another getaway. Oh, the car's just here... perfect.#9211
