    Found GC1WXE1 A Road Anarchy A417 - Stand & Deliver

    This checkin to GC1WXE1 A Road Anarchy A417 - Stand & Deliver reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Not the first place I looked! Came out this way, this morning, to find the nearby 2021-12-22 51 -2 geohashpoint (it's about two kilometres West of this GZ) and, during my return โ€ฆ

    Found GC5VKVN Walk by the Firehouse #4

    This checkin to GC5VKVN Walk by the Firehouse #4 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I first tried to find this cache back in 2018, but the cache container had been destroyed leaving only a fragment of it left. Today, as I was out on a lunchtime cycle nearby anyway, โ€ฆ

    Couldn't find GC9K2D0 The Footpath Wonder

    This checkin to GC9K2D0 The Footpath Wonder reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Saw the notification pop up and thought this was an obvious FTF opportunity, so me and a geokid zipped out and mounted a search. After about 20 minutes of hunting we double checked hint cache details - โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC1E9YX Uninhabited Island reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Geosense sent me straight to this one during a short visit to Stratford. Some fellow volunteers and I stayed at the hotel last night for our AGM and Christmas party and I couldn't resist coming out to find โ€ฆ

    Performed maintenance for GC9EXXC Shady Seat on The Green

    This checkin to GC9EXXC Shady Seat on The Green reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I was out on a head-clearing walk anyway this evening as I waited for my computer to catch up with me on some batch processing work, so I figured I'd check on this cache, which โ€ฆ

    Performed maintenance for GC8W7QW Forgotten Bridge

    This checkin to GC8W7QW Forgotten Bridge reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Took a late hike out here for a maintenance checkup before winter: make sure the waterproof seal is good etc. Really creepy to walk out here alone in the night fog, silent except for the occasional startling loud โ€ฆ

Staying at the nearby hotel I came out last night to try and find this but quickly gave up rather than poke around in the gloomy night. I'd brought a torch for exactly this kind of โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC9GKJA A Fine Pair # 1625 ~ Eynsham reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Dropped by for a maintenance visit. All is well except for a discrepancy between the paper and online logs, which I'm following up with the cachers in question.

    Update: I've verified that everybody who's โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC9GKJA A Fine Pair # 1625 ~ Eynsham reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I like to check in on my new caches after about a week in the field to ensure there are no teething troubles with their hiding place/weatherproofing etc. All looks good here!

The second of the caches in this series that I found in between errands, this afternoon, was probably the easiest, because the hiding place reminds me distinctly of one of my own hides! โ€ฆ

I'd picked this one out as an essential for this afternoon's "between jobs" hunt, because it completes my Solar System Wonders set.
