Unfortunately, I am now interstate, and those who have volunteered to help with my caches, will not be around for a while, so I will have to archive this. Cheers, BL.
May be gone, will check it out. If someone else has a look, and its there somewhere, please feel free to still log it. Cheers, BL.
Didn't find it- think its been taken- cement broken and shifted and a nice little square dent in the ground where I think it should have been....maybe worth checking.
Found with Parko's as a part of the Geocaching Scout competition. Thanks for the cache
It was road trip time again and this time we were headed to South Australia!! Our impetus was a cheap kayak, and the plethora of new caches around Murray Bridge. I'm a sucker for sudoku, geoart and Powertrails - Murray Bridge was too good too refuse and so with the Geopup packed in the car we were off!!
This was the second of two caches in close proximity, and as a bonus this also had accomodation close by!!!

Easy find... Wasn't covered too well so saw it before reaching gz... Recovered a little better... Tftc
A quick change of direction and another find, this time under the nose of a truckie. mr sharnie's tribe went into lurking smoker mode and noone would have guessed a thing! TFTC

We are not comming back this way so it's just across the road so why not. Dropped off TB for journey north.
Found at 2:58 PM GAFF1. A quick dash across the road with the van in tow (there is surprisingly few vehicles on this Hwy) and the cache was quickly grabbed.
Thanks Blacklegend

A quick find although GZ was a bit messy but the cache was safe and clean. Had a bit of difficulty with the clue as we couldn't see any pine trees around! Soon worked it out. TFTC
Quick find although 'pine' through us a bit.
Took tb as he has been sitting here awhile.

Nice easy find but the return was not so easy. The garbage man muggle arrived at just the wrong time so I pretended to be observing the birds in the trees. I bit silly really as it was pissing rain! Anyway I waited a while and got it back safely with a crab removed and a TB left ("Keego" - 7HDWQN). Thanks and cheers.
Had a long drive, so used the clues. It is right where you said. Thank you for the stop and the cache.
Quick stop in this rest area as many more miles to travel - thanks for the clues and the cache.
#596 on day 174 of continuous caching this one was an easy find. The mood for the day was set as the course had finished and was now able to enjoy some serious caching and get on with it over the next two days this was one of 9 for today which saw me working my way toward Tocumwal.
7 of 9 for the day and it is nearly time to get and find some food but just one more this is the same old story when route caching you just always want to get one more and so before you know it, its midnight and the start of a new day of caching.
Thanks Blacklegend for another great cache in the stop cache revive and survive theme series.

Found on our two week expedition to the Oz Mega In Albury. SL TNLN TFTC. Quick find between the pulling in and out of many semi's
Another quick find after the muggles finished their lunch. We also decided to have a cuppa and a leisurely 'go through the cache'.

micheena - Not on our way to Queensland, but the weekend at Leeton. Easy find, but no TB in cache.
#2195 We had driven to this one on a previous trip but at that time there were people set up in deck chairs - they didn't look like they were moving any time soon so we gave it a miss. Today we had the place to ourselves and Dad made the find. Thanks once again Blacklegend.
Good quick find on a drive by on the way home from moto gp aust. Container was sitting out in the open, so has been returned to it's hideyhole and covered. Took army man left spider, SL TFTC
Time to head out of Finlay. Despite the main road I had the place to myself and could poke around until I found this one. Thanks.

WanderingAus wandered by with the WanderingMrs (aka SWMBO) on day 117 of our annual Climatic Refugee trip, after 11 weeks in Darwin and a couple of weeks meandering across and down through Queensland then slowly down the Kidman Way to Griffith. The WanderingMrs had determined through the wonders of the Information Superhighway that there was line dancing a couple of nights in Griffith, so we checked in to the caravan park for six nights.
After that we continued on down the Kidman Way, with a stop at Jerilderie for lunch, then carried on until this cache loomed on the horizon (well, actually on the TomTom). The WanderingMrs over-shot the northern entrance to the rest area so she pulled the rig into the rest area from the southern end and drove slowly along until TomTom and the gpsr caught up with the whiplash turn, then I walked back and made a very quick and easy GAFF 0 find.
My find No 4243, LCC, TNLNSL, dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC, my WanderingAus GeoMobile TB and a couple of other travellers in for a visit before grabbing them back again.
Legoman Lucas (ref = TB2A8M4) was placed in On the way to Queensland on 25 April 2011 by Rallywrxwagon.
Smokey Bear Geocoin (ref = TB1ZGB7) was also placed in On the way to Queensland on 25 April 2011 by Rallywrxwagon.
On 26 April 2011 Derringer wrote "... Took a geocoin and TB" but I checked and they were different travellers.
There was no mention of these travellers before 4 June 2011 when Harrowang wrote "... hoping to pick up a TB or GC too. There were none in the cache, so previous cachers must have forgotten to log them out of this one".
Sadly these travellers have gone to the big travel hotel in the sky, time for the cache owner to mark them as missing.

Found with and by my muggle niece on our way to a wedding in the Hunter Valley. This was her fifth cache over 2 states on her first day of caching. I think she is now addicted!
On our way to Queensland and hoping for some warmer weather. Nice to stretch our legs for a minutes. TFTC
On the moment we found the cache we were not on our way to Queensland but on the way to Geelong, on this moment we found our first cache in Brisbane so arrived in Queensland,

Thank you for making our drive from Griffith to Geelong that much more enjoyable by placing your cache here !
Found a PathTag in the cache, not really sure what to do with it.....never found or even seen one before. I've sent the owner a message, hopefully he'll be able to educate me .
Cheers,

Happy to find this cache at 1.30pm and hoping to pick up a TB or GC too. There were none in the cache, so previous cachers must have forgotten to log them out of this one. There was a great variety of swaps to choose from tho'. Took: mini dumpster Left: Corvette kiwi racer TB. We are on a mini road trip from Wangaratta to Echuca, via Finley, Jerilderie, Conargo and Deniliquin. Most enjoyable journey so far exploring a part of NSW new to us.
Found on my way home from Tenterfield. Home tonight in Mount Gambier

TFTC again Blacklegend. The cache is also fine.

Found funnily enough on the way to Brisbane. Sad that some of these rest areas fall into disrepair, it would be great for the RTA and Service Clubs to help clean them up a bit.
Thanks for the cache and the encouragement to stop and have a break from driving Blacklegend.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed the log.

Stopped in on the way back from Griffith. Easy find, as it started to rain again. TNLN. Thanks.
Staying in Tocumwal visiting some family and friends (namely Blacklegend), shot up to Finley to grab the cache and clear out a few caches I hadn't done in the area. Arrived at GZ to find a grey army couple had set up for a break right at the rest stop. Talked to them for about 15 minutes then went and retrieved the cache and signed the log. TFTC.
Found on a day out with BL and GeoJames... easiest of finds, although the fat black spider guarding the cache wasn't impressed.
Found on our way back from the NSW outback, nice quick find many thanks BL17.

Last day of the month and also our last cache in N.S.W. this trip.
an easy find with all the hints given.
Too early in the day to stop for a cuppa but would be a good stop for travellers.

On way to home in Melbourne from Brisbane. Stopped there as we need to have a break for a while and found it with Alchemy2.. Notice one old house which there is empty. Poor House seems lonely as no one around in the house. TFTC
A happy stop on our way back from QLD. Didn't really think about caching until here and used the app on the iphone to find some. Spent a long time here and couldn't find it - looks like the next visitors did though! (must of had a male look around - lol) Thanks for the cache location!!
Found by Greg 1445H 11/06/10. A nice break at a quick driveby on the way to Griffith. I am continually surprised at how such exposed caches seem to last. TNLN TFTC.
Great little spot for a break noone here so had it to ourselves to look SL TNLN TFTC
A short deviation on the way to Tocumwal and this cache was in hand although not after an embarrassing oversight!
Found at 0910. Stopped by on the way to Nathalia to visit my parents leading up to the ANZAC Day event. I had this one shortened to just say 'Queensland' so I could identify the cache, so when I reached GZ, it read, 'Arriving To Queensland'....I wish.
