Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Not quite a drive by cache but easy none the less. The cache rests along The Thin Black Line.
The thin BLACK line? Where is it? What is it? What does it do?
The only clues I will give you are that it keeps the wheels of industry turning. It keeps your computer buzzing. It warms you on a cold winters night and cools you in the middle of summer.

No it is not electricity........yet!!

Easy find not far off Hwy but the mossies are deadly.

This one took a little longer as we were unable to work out the black line.

My cousin and her son tagged along to take a look at caching. Found out that the flowers around the power pole out on the road were for one of my cousins friends who was killed in a car accident last year.

Team Casho’s Boy weekend of caching up north.

With the girls at home the boys decided to go a caching.

Armed with a list of lower end caches. No disrespect to the caches or their owners there were many wonderful caches, locations and things to see in our travels. We just set up a search for those with a terrain level of around 2 – 2 ½ for this trip to build up our numbers heading towards our 1000th find in our first year. As this was the case many of our logs would just read easy find so to expand on that we are including a run down on bits of our trip in all logs.

Trip
Wollongong – Raymond Terrace – Nelsons Bay and home via the Central Coast area.
Visiting relo’s while in the area (I know a major waist of caching time).
Found not only our 900th find but also out 950th, on our way to the big 1000.

Things we seen
Views, fireworks, kids jumping their bikes off the end of a wharf, a kangaroo, a koala, crabs by the hundreds, lizards, a crock, a turtle, kookaburra, aliens, ducks, dogs, boats, tankers, a weather station, the Coast Guard, police, ambulance and the fire brigade and that was just for starters.

Removed a box of matches from a cache in a bush area. Not such a good idea I thought.

Got bitten by mozzies, invaded by school kids while trying to return a cache, did some 4 wheel driving, got busted by muggles, introduced my muggle family to caching, collected some travellers, found some new and interesting hide styles and carried out maintenance on several caches while on the go. On the way home had to take the long way due to a fatal car accident on Picton Rd. Stopped to help a driver who got a puncher as a result of the accident. Seen his car fall off the jack while we were passing by, legs under the car (all ok there thankfully). Kids got paid for our assistance as I would not accept the money. This detour proved longer then it should have due to the 3 new caches in Appin last week.

Our thanks to the girls for allowing us to cache without then (not that they had any other choice) and the many cache owners who placed the caches we attended.

We look forward to catching up with fellow cacher’s at the Geocaching Association of NSW Nurragingy Christmas Party GC1ZCCX December 12 2009, were all going well this will be our 1000th find.

Looks like the Oz Wagga Wagga Mega Event (April 2-5, 2010) GC1Y5R has just hit the MEGA requirements and we can’t wait to be part of it.

Merry Christmas
Happy and safe caching.
Team Casho
