Well this used to be a favourite game as a kid! The area to GZ was fenced off but no machinery near by so we snuck over the fence & made our way to GZ. Signed & replaced! TFTC!
A late afternoon find. I managed the find although the area was fenced off. Thanks for Geogetters for the puzzle and cache.
Monopoly was the family favourite around most households in Australia. Well it was at mine but it would always end in arguments or tears lol. The area was fenced off as the workers were doing landscaping and other general works. I approached the worker but he was too busy cutting branches so I hustled went to GZ found the cache and signed the log before quietly sneaking back out and onto my next adventure. TFTC
Well its the long weekend and I was wondering what to do so a trip up to Bendigo was called for.This weekend will help me continue along with my streak which I want to get to 183 as any more is just to hard to achieve.Im having to resort to detours on the way home from work but a weekend trip away will help me along and also any excuse to get out of Melbourne is a great idea.After a great day yesterday of caching and sight seeing and a good nights rest (after finding somewhere to stay as Bendigo appears to be booked out) its time for some more caching and to slowly make my way home.One of my favourite games growing up but I did hate losing all of the time.I had to wait for the coast to be clear to sneak in through the fencing to get to this one.Thanks Geogetters TFTC.
Time to get away for the weekend, so a weekend trip to Bendigo (& St Arnaud) was organised with Geoturtle37.One of my favourite games growing up.We needed to squeeze through the temporary fencing to reach gz.Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, Geogetters ~~
Found with Grubbs1337, Snowy27 and ITWimdy. ??A great day out with Dad.Thanks for the cache ??
After a 10 year hiatus, I've returned to Geocaching, this time with a 4yo and keen to complete puzzles! This was a great puzzle and a fabulous find, Ms 4 was very impressed. TFTC Geogetters
Sooo many Eastern Rosellas....... but they stayed pretty high in the trees. Unlike the pesky myna birds. I enjoyed a lovely walk around the reservoir in wintry sunshine. Many thanks for the puzzle & the cache
A few days in Bendigo staying with a muggle friend. Met up with Bogonghazy for lunch and went hunting for this one as we were lunching close by. Thanks for the enjoyment
While we were looking we found this large discarded egg? Found with joybell53 TFTC
Enjoyed solving and finding this one. Thanks for a nice day out for Mother’s Day
YAPIDKA! Terrific spot. Out and about on trusty treadles having a great time exploring the fab GBNP - love the iron barks and carpets of wildflowers…then there’s the spiders…webs across tracks deter the arachnophobe - but there is a nicer way - creeping under them so their hard work is not destroyed. Reminders of all those ‘childhood games’ played about this time of year when not racing around outside was fun. TFTC and the info!
Second find and I located it quite quickly despite it being tucked away neatly. Geo wife admired the ducks while I was busy.
Thanks again
Thanks again
We like monopoly and this puzzle didn't give us too much trouble. The cache was secure and we'll hidden at gz. Thanks.
Went and found this one today. It was such a nice day and a fun little find and puzzle. Thanks!
Nice quick find for us today! Careful of the Bull ants!

This game continues to cause heated arguments in my family! Many times it ended with the board being tossed upside down and someone leaving in tears!!! TFTC
Haven't played this game much, only modified versions for fitness activities. Tftc
Finally got out my 50 year old monopoly game board to solve the puzzle. Boy rent was cheap in those days. Thanks for the puzzle cache. It is such a nice day to be out geocaching. There was an opening in the lid and a family of bugs have moved in to the container. Not dangerous ones though.
Out for a walk to stretch the legs. Decided to wander around the lake and grab a few caches. This was one of the easier puzzles in this series. Haven’t played Monoploy for many years.
A quick find here

After quite an adventurous day for us, including the new skill of tyre changing, this was a relaxing find. Whilst out here we have been playing Monopoly at night so this was an appropriate puzzle and find. Thanks Geogetters
Played Monopoly last night … but with cards. Luckily Snips and Co had already solved the puzzle. So a quick find because of her. YAY.
Love the hide! Got one of the numbers wrong at first so had to re do it. Cheers, Plathe Fam
Wow, heaps of passing muggles this morning, nice cache placement and puzzle, thanks
Found with catnap777 @ 5:55pm. Last one without a torch.
Needing a weekend away, cat' and I decided to hit up Bendigo for a bunch of caches including a handful of these "Anyone for...." mysteries that we had both enjoyed solving in quiet times together.
Monoppoly was another game my siblings and I spent a lot of time playing. We also spent a lot of time picking up and putting away all the game peices after the board went flying across the room signalling the end of another less than successful game against my more entrepreneurial older sister. [xx(]

Dalerious and I had great pleasure in working through these very clever puzzles We managed to set up a weekend away to get cracking on signing our names in each log. Some of the logs were too wet to sign though which is unfortunate, but that didn't deter us from enjoying the variety of areas looking for each hide Thank you Geogetters for providing a ripper set of Mysteries [:o]
Hamish, Elliot and Alice found this cache. Hamish has been practicing his maths skills to help solve the clue.
In the area today with Glanville Girls cleaning up a few solved mystery's. Thanks for placing and maintaining for our enjoyment. A super quick find in this nice area.
Out caching in the area today with Wozzle 68 picking up the remainder of the puzzles in this series that had been solved many years ago. This one was a super quick find for wozzle68. He had it in hand before I even got out of the car. Thanks for placing.

On our way to try and solve a multi, we solved this one a while ago and thought we would grab it on the way

Found today walking from LittleBoss's home in our 2hr exercise limit.
We took and used hand sanitiser before touching each cache, and used our own stamp.
Thanks for these puzzles, some of the very few that I can work out.

After a few days away in Mildura with Snap Happy, omegaman1971, Happy Feet, Happy Pants and The Empire, it was now time to head for home, I detoured Via Bendigo to do the labs in town and a hand full of caches along the way.
Thanks Geogetters for the cache.

Find No. 3187. Found at 2.05pm.
A day trip to Bendigo with Geodog Penny on board, to wander around finding caches here and there and this is eight of 16 that we found for the day.
We managed to do a few of the games puzzles plus a few others in between. We started in the area behind Lansell Plaza and finished out at White Hills.
We enjoyed our day wandering around seeing parts of Bendigo we have never seen before.
Parked in a Parking Bay and walked around to this one only to discover that we could of drove closer to it. How often does that happen when caching?

Found the correct coordinates, however we couldn't find the container. Very unfortunate but a fun puzzle
TFTC. We came to Bendigo to attend an evening event. Rather than just and up and down trip from Maryborough we decided to spend a good afternoon caching. As you do. We had solved puzzles to find as well as targeting a few multis to edge closer to a challenge cache. Another one found in this series. Slowly getting through them . Still have some to solve.
After a fun game of monopoly we came and spotted someone which resembled a hotel which concealed the cache.
Thanks for the cache Geogetters.

Day 8 of our epic trek to the St Arnaud Mega via Geelong and return via wherever the caches are.
The constant was my travel companion for the entire trip, - Anymules but we were joined by other cachers in our travels.
With the Mega event finished we continued caching around Bendigo where we were based. We had solved numerous puzzles before heading over last year but only managed to find a few so we wanted to put a bigger dent in those and turn them into smilies. [^] Of course we would be stopping for others as we passed.
My GPS decided to spit the dummy and I was left to cache by phone for the rest of the day. Learning the new app as I went. Another quick find for Anymules as I stopped to take a picture of some nearby cache guardians.
**Thanks Geogetters for this cache. **

Headed out today on a roadtrip to the St Arnaud Mega via Bendigo.
My aim was to attend today's event here at the reservoir but was 5 minutes too late for that.
Oh well, time to play some monopoly then.
How times have changed. According to The Guardian, "what does Monopoly for Millennials involve? Well, it's just like normal Monopoly, but instead of money you collect 'experience points' by visiting such things as a music festival, a farmers' market, a vegetarian bistro, a bike share, your friend's couch …"
Cache was found easily.
Thanks, Geogetters.

Yay! Another find this morning. Lots of muggle activity so had to be very stealthy. Luckily there was some flora and fauna to take photos of! Thank you for the puzzle and the cache Geogetters!
Another great puzzle in the series! We thought we knew everything there was to know about monopoly but apparently we’ve been playing in wrong this whole time! Made a quick find at gz, a beautiful area to go for a walk! Thanks for the cache!
Holidaying in Bendigo for a few days and enjoying the caches in the area. Enjoyed solving the puzzle. TFTC
Added more log sheets to cache. To my surprise, cache was living in a new hole, and a possum was living in the original hole.
Out on a walk with Ruthie91, 12 week old grandgeo R and muggle family members. Up from Melbourne for a day trip. Log in good condition but full thanks for this terrific puzzle and hide.
Having solved the puzzle before coming to Bendigo for holidays we were eager to get out and find it. Log book signed. Cache in good condition. TFTC
Out this afternoon after a bad storm had gone by. These caches we found were located near where we have been staying. Thank you to all CO's who have placed them, they took me places to where I would not have walked too.
Having several days in and around Bendigo following the Parkville Event in Melbourne on the weekend.
I have enjoyed visiting a variety of interesting places and appreciate the time and effort that all the COs have put into placing the caches. Thank you so much.

Isn’t this the game that causes the most fights between siblings? Everyone wants to be the Banker, nobody likes paying the high rentals on properties, everyone fights over who is going to buy Park Lane & Mayfair and oh the tears when the one in jail can’t throw a double to save themselves. Now there are so many versions, including an Australian one, where the place names are all changed. Even some clever geocacher has created a whole series in a similar vein around Geelong! The game continues to evolve...SL at 3.38pm TNLN #5315 TFTC Geogetters - and we must have answered the questions correctly because we found the cache!
We were not far away having breakfast, feeling like I'd landed on Mayfair and paid out a fortune, so this cache seemed rather appropriate. The only thing missing was a family squabble! Accurate coordinates and a keen eye led to a quick find in a lovely area. Thanks Geogetters.
*In town for my Grandson's 1st Birthday*.
Out early with Happy Feet grabbing one or two on what is to be a 40°+ day.
This was found fairly quickly with no muggles about at this time of morning. Having this one solved some time ago, it was just a case of stopping off to grab it.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment Geogetters... Appreciate your efforts...

Stamped and returned as found...
