Geocache Description:

Should be a quick find. Everyone's favorite container hidden near the shoreline.

Back on May 24th, 2014 the HampdenTFrogger family unknowingly embarked on a two year long adventure. Up until this point, we would go geocaching once or twice a year, just as something to do. In 2014, we found a bunch of caches on the 24th and then found some more on the 25th. Our oldest Daughter, who goes by Tadpole, had strong geosenses from the beginner. We could point in a direction and say 300' that way, and Tadpole would bound of into the thicket and pop up with a cache.

On May 26th, 2014, we decided to go to Mosman Park instead of going geocaching. After spending some time beach-combing, we headed back to let the kids play at the park. Suddenly, Tadpole stopped and pulled the original cache from it's hiding spot. No Geocaching App, no GPS, she just sensed it. Since we had geocached three days in a row, we decided to start a streak.

30 days turned into 100 days;
A year turned into 366 days, then 455 days;
Once at 455 days, we decided to cache through leap day;
We ended up going 732 days, from May 24th 2014 to May 24th 2016.

Since this is the cache that started our streak, we were a little sad when we couldn't find it we went back to let the kids log it.

The cache is a traditional ammo can that my daughter HampdenFeFrogger gave me for Father's Day, please use stealth when retrieving it, there are often muggles around.

There is an unactivated trackable in the cache for FTF!
