Harry the Gnome Usher, Western Australia, Australia
By daryllm123 on 01-Dec-10. Waypoint GA2915

Unfortunately I couldn't find Harry

The GPS lead me out into a pretty open area on the other side of the fence to my car. I searched all around the fence, the fallen trees and logs, even the big tree in the carpark.

If the hint is literal, I didn't see any of this item around here, although I did find a chain. If the hint is cryptic, I have no idea what it's referring to.

Dropping off.

Will move on soon.

We left this gnome with a friend in a lovely tuart forest.

Got him!

Dropped off in Subi

It has been a while since I've come across a gnome cache. Will move him onto a new location soon.

Harry is now below the next Geocaching.com cache heading south on the HWY.

It was a hot day when we found Harry so we found him and moved him onto a shadier rest stop.

Harry is now resting beside another cache cooling down after his trek across the Nullarbor. Saying that, it is 40 today!! but still cooler. We had a day on the Nullarbor of 50 Bye bye Harry, it's been fun.

Harry has been by the river long enough and he wanted a change of scenery. How did the last lot get him up into that tree? Poor Mr M who fell and hurt his elbows earlier in the day had to retrieve him and it wasn't easy. How about a trip across the Nullarbor?" we asked and he jumped at the chance. Little did he know..... anyway he's off to WA to get a few kilometres under his belt. TFTC.

Harry has a new little place down by the river.

Dropped at my cache at the front of my house for now.

Grabbed at the event and depositing him at my house.
I hear he is going south for the rest of winter.

Was this gnome left at the pub or was it taken by someone I have a frog thst has gone Mia at the same location

Found amongst an amazing collection of moving Froggy freinds that hopped onto the table at today's pub lunch! Thanks to Black Bunny for bringing them down.

Nice to see this little cache lasting beyond the gnome race, many have not been so lucky. Found this little guy on a table of frogs and gnomes on a lovely caching lunch. BlackBunny had quite a few of these little critters in his swag.

Found at a table full of recent-arrival interstate amphibians at the "Pub Lunch Mon July 16 - It's Tax Time".

Thanks for the gnome.

We've made it back to Canberra. This guy is now pretty close to the border, but just on the ACT side.

Visiting relatives just up the road, I had to grab this guy while waiting for them to get home.

Harry came to the eastern suburbs and thought Trumper Park would be a very nice spot to sit a while. He went and found a nice hiding spot just off the path in the roots of a fallen tree.

A gnome I hadn't previously met despite him having visited Sydney before. Oh well, can get to make his acquaintance now!

'Harry the Gnome' has joined the Froggy fun and followed his new Mates to this lovely Park, he expect to be picked up and moved very soon.

Found an old friend, 'Harry' has come for a short visit for old times sake. He kept company with some frogs and will be on his way tomorrow.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Harry is now out in Lithgow, seeing the sights.

But I suspect he'll come back east soon.

Discovered at Fourth annual caching event at Rouse Hill

Found Harry at the Fourth Annual Hills Geocaching Event!

Good to see that he's still 'on the road' and doing well.

Will transport him up to Lithgow soon.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Moving to the event tomorrow with my human friend. Can't wait to meet all those nice friendly humans. I'll have to smile extra nicely, so I can hitch a ride.
Don't look for me before the 14th at 10am.

Grr! Too late yet again!

Did not find this one, it had been gnapped already.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Oh Harry I finally found you after leaving you behind in Canberra. Harry has missed his brother though by quite a few months who I believe is now in Tassie.
Never mind Harry can rest up at my place, his log is a little damp, so while it dries out he is helping himself to a nice long cold drink.

Oh Harry I am so sorry that I didn't see you. Well I thought I saw you but it was your brother that I grabbed. Naughty albida33 put both of you in the same hidey hole and you both showed up as one gnome. Ahhhhh siamese twins. Please try and find your way to Sydney to meet up with your brother.

Ready to go

2nd gnome from this spot today

Albida

Placed out near one of my caches goodluck TFTG

Found on a push bike ride around Civic today. Stopped at gz and spied harry in the bush. TFTG

Moved to a more cultural area ... maybe time for some learning? Hanging out near the Anthropology school.

Another unfound gnome bites the dust......well, not literally but you know what I mean

Might bring a bit closer into town so that he can keep moving....not too much traffic out Uriarra way at the moment.

Harry is now the missing pilion passenger.

Oh wow, is this guy related to heave-ho? What did you feed him before he set off?

Anyway, i have plans for this one.

Offloaded but not left on his own in the dark!

Delivered to my door Thanks for the gnome!

354. A quick grab in the dark with no torch and peak hour headlights shining in my eyes. He's a fairly heavy chap isn't he.

TFTG and the Butler.

OK - all moved...

Received from Norkmeister. Where to next?

Rated: for Overall Experience

Dropped off to Tankengine. Don't bother looking for this one.

grabbed on a night time caching run

Candy Cane 101 and I went for a walk this afternoon, placing gnomes in this area, according to some very specific instructions by Black Bunny. We haven't been told why, but we suspect a pattern is emerging. We also suspect that we were told to do it in a certain way, just to make us cross the creek the maximum number of times en route. We had fun anyway, and saw a lot of kangaroos and a few brown bunnies.

Went for a drive with black bunny and Just a cacher to a event., when the event was over, there were 50 gnomes and pathtag swapping
Thanks for the gnome

Rated: for Overall Experience

Grabbed this fellow to bring back to Canberra after the GLF & GFF event at Mt Victoria. One of 50 gnomes at the GLF & GFF event.

A chance to catch up with some Sydney cachers that we have only parried with on the forums, enjoy some good company and swap some tags.

Thanks for the gnome

We found this gnome while attending the Blue Mountains Gnome Event. TFTG

Found at the gnome event at Mount Victoria.
It was a great day! The gnomes enjoyed it, and so did the non-gnomes.
Good food, good company, good pathtags, and magnificent weather and views!

Rated: for Overall Experience

Went for a drive today to catch up with a few gnomes that I heard were gathering at an event in the Blue Mt's. Something about the GLF and GFF calling a truce.

Meet a few gnoming aficiandos and even eat my way through a couple of gnome cup cakes (Thanks to Just a Cacher for those) while signing (almost) all the logs.

A great way, and a great spot, to spend an hour or 2.

Thanks to all who attended, great to meet you, along with the gnomes.

Found at the Blue Mountains gnome event

'Harry the Gnome' is ready to party with his mates, some new and some he has already met in his travels. With the GLF and the GFF comparing notes let's hope for a lasting peace.
Don't go looking for him before Saturday the 2nd of July, he won't come out and play until then!

'Harry the Gnome' is on his way to some fun and games in Mt Victoria for the weekend. His transport has been well organized and he will soon be at the meeting point.

Harry's on the go! He's heading off on another exciting GFF mission!

Another new GFF mission for Harry! Believe it or not, he may end up in the ACT!

Rated: for Overall Experience

'Harry' has now moved to the GFF Resort for a holiday. He will no doubt enjoy all the facilities offered by the Center.

Do not go looking for him there, this is a top secret location and not at the published co-ords.

'Harry the Gnome' is now getting a well earned rest, the last leg of his journey will take him back to the GFF headquarter for a short holiday. He will be back on the road very soon. Don't go looking for him he is gone from here!

Rated: for Overall Experience

Harry is heading west again, perhaps for a refresher course at the GFF Headquarters.

I'm not sure.

My task was to deliver him to Leura Railway Station, known to many gnomes!

GFF Gnome rescue operation continuing . . .

Quarry Road site showed signs of someone cutting timber recently!

Will check with strike-a-light for more information . . .

Harry now heading for re-assignment . . .

Rated: for Overall Experience

'Harry the Gnome' has been rescued and is now awaiting pick up by the local GFF officer for his debrief, no doubt he will have some story to tell.

Boy was Harry happy to see some friendly faces, after being found on the ground once, there he was again! Was it the wind or some unhappy critter defending his territory? In any case he is on his way to a more relaxing location.

Rated: for Overall Experience

While driving down Quarry Road on a NSW State Survey Marker outing, I decided to stop and check how Harry and Luke were doing.

Harry was lying on the ground under his look-out tree. He seemed to be in good condition and his log was dry, so I replaced him appropriately.

However, Luke had gone AWOL!

Harry was in a pretty good position for his work, but I decided to 'tweak' his exact location and camo.

He should be fine now, with a much better view of his immediate Quarry Road surroundings.

Passing through this quiet area of Dural early in the morning, at the wheel of GeoBuru2, I put on my GFF hat and decided to check on 'Harry the Gnome' and his latest surveillance mission.

I'm pleased to report that he was bright and alert and on the job.

This new GFF training has made a world of difference for our gnomes.

Keep up the good work, Harry!

Rated: for Overall Experience

Found him waiting at Blossom*s home, he wanted to travel out to Quarry Road, Dural to make sure every body is keeping a look out for unwanted types now resting under a log at gnomes lookout

I opened the door this evening and found Mud Gninja and Harry on the doorstep. Harry was quite happy to chat but Mud-Gninja silcenced him so I didn't learn anything of their plans.

Harry has been sent with some dispatches to communicate plans to other GFF members

Gamma dispersal point activated

Rated: for Overall Experience

The third Gnome Team (The C Team) has reached its dispersal point. All members have their new duties assigned and will rely on help from local human at Dispersal Point Gamma to reach satisfactory destinations.
Of course all Gnomes will report back to Clwydd Headquarters from time to time to advise of their findings.

'Harry the Gnome' has reached his assigned assembly point, where he will be joined by his team mates. He has joined his transportation and is only waiting for all to be present. They will all be on the move in a few days. He is anxious to start his new adventures.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Harry is now passing through Katoomba, above 1100 metres, on his way to accomplish an important GFF mission.

I'm sorry that I can't say more about it right now.

But soon, all will be revealed. And Harry will be part of it.

He's very excited.

Found Harry again in the Great Lithgow Area -- very content and obviously well trained now. He's keen to have an important mission.

I'll do my part and move him along east.

Where will he end up?

On the Clwydd Headquarters knows!

Rated: for Overall Experience

'Harry the Gnome' has moved to his new abode, right here at gnome central. I don't know what these Gnomes are planning but I bet it is not good! I will keep an eye on them, but they are very stealthy.

'Harry the Gnome' has been offered transport to the GFF headquarters and he was very pleased not to have to make his own way there. His debriefing went well and full membership was offered and accepted. He is now on his way to the Clwydd GHQ to help protect from the unwarranted incursions by the GLF (turn head and spit!).

Rated: for Overall Experience

Leura is the way station for Harry's trip. He arrived here with four other Victorian gnomes, plus Honorary Gnome Lizzy . . .

I managed to waylay a convoy of captured gnomes being sent to Gnometanamo Bay (aka 'Clwydd') and logged them all before they were put back into line. Something's going on!

Harry followed his mates into the GeoBuru2 though my open window.

Like the others, he wanted to live free and be happy.

So he was told to join the GFF!

That's what great publicity we're getting . . .

Rated: for Overall Experience

Who would have thought they'd be so popular? Wasn't even sitting in my driveway with the engine running waiting for these (ay Yurt?) So, barely signed logs, before I pretty much threw them at a passing geomobile and off they went. A fleeting visit, but good to see some Gnomes after a few weeks

POP! In my backyard?? (almost), raced down while the kids were having dinner and just at dusk, sans gps, found 5 little fellas just chillin in the reeds. Grabbed them and came home. Funny looking thing!

Rated: for Overall Experience

After a bit of a road trip Harry called a gnome convention and they all got out at a park and hid behind some reeds.

Had to go past here and when I stopped Harry recognised me and followed a group of gnomes into my car, last seen heading north.

6 for one in this standard location for finding gnomes in the west.

Now this is the middle of nowehere.
So many new estates springing up around here, you never know when they're going to stop.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks drayllm123 for Harry. He's out and about again, so look out for the moved log shortly.

Poor Harry is now a little lost out in the back paddocks of the west.

Please go and save him!!

On the way home after the Floatee event yesterday, I stopped past and picke dup Harry.

Will move on soon.

T FTG

Harry walked the dogs with me but ran away and hid in the bushes, last seen just behind a log under some scrub, not far from the carpark.

Picked up Harry while he was distracted by Gnaughty Gnorma, will move him on soon.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Watching Gnorma "strutting her stuff". Hurry, there's five gnomes here for the price of one!

Found this guy with two of his friends loitering under a bridge. Yes Yurt, he was there! They were difficult to access with all the recent rain. I'll move him on very soon.
