We managed to remove another cache from our to-do list. Stumped... has had us, well, stumped, for a while now. We weren't able to find it when it was initially placed as a multi-cache, and Mr S had no luck trying to find it when it was converted to a traditional cache. Last weekend we went out on another mission, and made the find.
It turns out we (well, Mr S) were looking near the wrong stump. Once we saw that there was another likely hiding spot, it wasn't long before we had the cache in hand. This was our lesson in not being too focussed on the arrow on the GPSr, and stopping to look around to see if there are any other likely hiding spots nearby.
Our to-do list is shrinking, and hopefully we can cross a few more off soon.

Event caches
We are still yet to attend an event cache. The first one we could have attended was C.C.C.C.C. #3 (All Rogues Day) last year, but it was on the same weekend that we moved house. Last month was the first meeting of Geocaching NSW Inc., but that fell on our wedding day. Finally, we think there's an event that we'll be able to attend - the WWFM IV event in Sydney.
After hearing Sonny and Sandy from Podcacher talk about the WWFM III event, we thought it would be fun to take part in a WWFM if there was one organised in Sydney. Ms S will be on the support crew and take some photos and video of the event, while Mr S will take part in the run. Sounds like a fun day, and we'll finally have the chance to put some faces to geocaching names.

Another milestone in our caching career
After a bit of a lull in our caching activity which was caused by the fact we had to organise our wedding, we finally made another find yesterday, and it was another milestone in our caching career.
Pearce Family Plot was the first cache that we found as husband and wife. It was also memorable for the fact that we discovered the battery in our car was flat when we got back to it after finding the cache. After waiting for the NRMA Road Service, we were on our way again.
With daylight saving starting in Sydney this Sunday, we may be able to hunt some caches after work.
