Caching in the area we snapped the required pic which has been added to the gallery.
 
Belle, Jesse, Rach and I decided to pause at "Uncle Dans" to pick up a few cold bevies on the way home after fun at Wagga's new river park and lunch at the cafe Jesse manages. The grandies were almost asleep in the car so I offered to give Belle some time out and drive the kids around for a bit and I'd call her if I needed her. They were asleep in less than a minute but I wanted to give Belle more time off. So where should I drive? I've seen all the highlights of Wagga before. Then I thought, are there any trigs I haven't found here yet, and yes there was. So I drove here and took a snap of some sleepy little ones with a very boring CORS. I might even take a couple of virtual photos whilst here. #cachingfromthecarseat haha.

In Wagga for a weekend of caching with The Empire, Happy Pants and Happy Feet.
When I had a chance I ducked out and grabbed a few GCA's & Waymarks.

Haven't visited Wagga since I was based here in the RAAF in 1986.

Thanks for the Cache. Clapping

With a 3 day weekend on hand, what better way to use one of them as a day of caching. Big Grin I started my day off by asking [@AngusnmumyAdventures](http://coord.info/PRRD6GG) if they were able to come and they agreed to meetup and come along for the ride in the morning. After the morning of caching we had lunch at the Palm & Pawn over in North Wagga and then we went our separate ways mainly because Angus needed a rest. I then went to get some things from the shops and afterwards went to find some Trig-Points that have been on my to-do-list for quite some time. I quite enjoyed my day out. Smile TB visit on all caches and I would like to thank all CO’s for placing the caches I found today and for the enjoyment they brought me. Big Grin
Today’s Totals:
3 GC Finds
7 GCA Finds
3 Revisits

After finding the other Trig-Points in Wagga and a little bit more shopping, I made my to this one just before leaving Wagga. Another quick find. TFTTP

This was the third stop on the third day was at the CORS at Wagga, found the building and took the required photo once I found a spot to shoot from. Thanks for the trig Geocaching Australia.

Geocaching Australia (GCA) Cache Find Number 1266 - 14229 overall cache finds.

Found while on a caching run with Sol de Lune and LuckyL10n in the Wagga Wagga region. While I mainly looked for GC caches, when an easy GCA cache comes along we go for that as well. Trigs are particularly nice to track down and find. I was very happy when they became part of the GCA cache family. Its especially satisfying if you have made a big climb up for one ! I have also now joined dragonZone in Clan Cerberus, so there are more reasons to find those GCA caches. Its interesting to find the many different types of trigs. From the traditional metal legs and vanes, to the concrete base with vanes, to the ones on top of water tanks (especially the red ones !), as well the new CORS type. When you look on a GCA map and see all those hundreds and hundreds of blue 'Z's it shows just how many there are out there. Shame so many are on private property and cannot be accessed at all. So as far as I'm concerned every trig that can be found and photographed is a real bonus !

The trig was quickly 'found'. Piccie taken and posted. Another nice CORS added to the list.

Thanks Geocaching Australia !

#GA588 - 08:15; I found myself in Wagga Wagga on family business and was out to refuel the geomobile when I spotted a trig on the hospital near the servo. Checked the GPSr and saw this one wasn't too far away either, so popped over for another quick find before heading back to the motel. TFTC Geocaching Australia Very HappyClan Cerberus

A bit of a bonus for the day. Visited with Sol de Lune, snapped a photo, nearly ran into a police van, observed a domestic and police...now who said caching could be boring? Cool
