Back into hiding place for next finder.
Dropped off at the Deer Park Hunt Club.
Picked this one up on way home after an afternoon of Geocaching. Will be out and about shortly.
Hiding in a resting place for next find.
Moved and ready to be found again.
After a day out meeting traveling cachers in town and then a nice drive down South to a quick event, with the weather being unsure what it was doing we didnt do much walking but grabbed a few roadside hides before heading home and this is when we dropped off these moveables on the Eastern Shore.
Hidden in a common spot that has so far proved a safe place for moveables.

Hi Ilivtrekking
A great caching day today. Another day out with Budge and a total of 37 caches found.
Travel:
Left Huonville for Lenah Valley at 0515 hours, met the Blue Flier and then on to Launceston and return to Huonville at 2240 hours.
Another 14.53 kilometres were covered on foot requiring 19217 steps burning 2322 calories.
Weather:
Overcast and drizzly morning. A fine afternoon and a bit warmer.
Thanks to Budge for a great day, great company, laughs and above all else his friendship
GA5823 "Weeping Angel 23"
On our way to Launceston, stopped on the highway to collect this hitch hiker
Had to cross the highway, risking life and limb to gather the wee angel and have it join us on our travels for the day
Sainted the cache at 0703 hours as the second find for the day
TFTC and cheers

Passed on to Grumbligrot to continue the journey
A quick find while passing through Ulverstone. Grabbed this moveable cache and some others and will take them towards the north of the state asap. TFTC
under cover waiting for its next move with a group of friends.
After initially failing to find Happy Sticky Frog and this cache Mrs Y'stassie met a local fisher muggle who, after inquiring as to whether she had lost something and finding she was looking for a geocache that he had found, admitted to muggling this cache and the frog after he had seen someone hiding things. Fortunately he had not disposed of the 'toys' and Mrs Y'stassie was able to retreaved them.
Another interesting chapter to add to Weeping Angel's travel story.
This little angel will be out and ready to continue her tour of Tassie in the New Year.

After hitching a ride in our suitcase - Weeping Angel (23) is back out and ready for action
Was flying towards the beach when decided to come down for a rest
Just found this. This weeping angel is joining another and they're both flying on together today. They're looking for a nice quite place which will be logged this evening.

Cheers

After being flat out with cycling, and neglecting a lot of home duties like gardening, I finally managed to update my GPS and get out this afternoon for some caching, for the first time in about a month. This was the third cache I looked for, and the third I didn't find.
Dropped with another moveable in bush behind shelter.
After working out that the last log should have been a move not a found I traveled down to GZ to try and find the angel.
Unfortunately I did not look at the hint before departing and didn't have access to it when I arrived so had to do a long search but eventually found it.
The tag had come away from the angel so will have to tie it on again.
Thanks for the cache.

Picked Up Tonight Whilst In The Area although the coordinates had me at the wrong tree.

Spotted this this Angel at the coexist event minus a couple of wings but otherwise in good order.
Was found by scouts out in the park - will take this to the 4th July GCA Event - Kings Park
Thinking the previous DNF might of been the "kiss of death" for this one, I've decided to flout the rules and move it to a new location (and an easier find!) to show that it really does exist.
Happy caching!

I came to find this one this morning, but left empty handed.
There were plenty of trees but most were further into the bushes than I cared to go.
I didn't see a single rock despite checking several trees...

Cruising around with Bubba Bear looking to drop off this angel. Another easy (?) drive by. Not far from the road. No need to go far into the bush looking for this one.
Dropped off with another angel and a moveable that was already here.
Picked up whilst out on a shopping expedition in the area. TFTC. Will move on soon.
I'm afraid weeping angel 20 has met the same fate- lost the top of her wings during the chase...occupational hazard for weeping angels
Mmm... this could be a problem. I seem to remember something in the rules that the criteria of an entrant in this year's race is that it must have wings.
I'm sure that "dewinged" will qualify.
