Took a while of driving around the retirement village to spot this one. I'm sure i could have got closer, but...
Rated: for Overall Experience
Have been meaning to get this one for some time now as I'm up this way once a month, but I had to wait for daylight savings to kick in so I had enough light to be able to get a decent photo.
Another day trip to the big smoke with LuckyL10n to grab a few trigs and hopefully a gegnome or two....
Been out this way twice this year and each time have driven straight past this one. Not today. Remembered to stop and soon had the photo's taken.
Another trig crossed off the list.....

#GA506 - 14:10; Back in Sydney with the geohoney for the weekend, so after dropping her off for some retail therapy, it was off to grab a few caches. Drove past this one last weekend when I was up here with Sol de lune, fitzy_1965 and toyhunters, so dropped in today to make the find. TFTC Geocaching Australia .

Shot off a photo from the street so as not to ruffle any resident's feathers. Found at 2:56 pm.

Got 5 trigs today in the end. Took this shot from the driveway through the trees so as not to trespass too much. Nice views from around here.

Found on a run of Trigs in the area this evening. Bit hard to see the roof in this photo.
Drove past this one the other afternoon. It's a bit hard to get a clear shot without trespassing onto the property, so here is one through the trees.
On the way home from work I ducked in to view this one. Certainly a large complex of buildings behind the brick wall I pass often.
What a great old set of buildings. A pity we can't wander through and admire them really, but maybe one decade they will convert it to a historic venue and allow the public in.
Another one on the way home from "Kiss Me Quick" - easy to park out front and walk in for the photo. Trigs on everything around here it seems.
Logged this one while passing through Ryde on business.
Easy to photograph from near street.
Spire designated an official TS by the NSW Department of Lands.

On the way to work a few quick Trigs to do. Parked out the front of this Retirement village and walked in a little way down the drive to take the photo on a nice sunny day.

Found today on my little Trig hunt, no problem finding this one in the retirement village, lucky for me I blended right in with the residents, so no worries getting the photos.
