Lifted almost every rock I could find and looked under the bridge and the rails nothing around must have washed away..
After looking for about 20min but couldn’t locate will try again on a brighter, less drizzley day
Finally had the chance to replace this cache. Hopefully it will stay in place this time!
Sadly it looks like my geocache at Lakeside has been swept away when the waters under the bridge have become very high. I am going to disable the cache for a little while to wait until the water levels go down a bit before replacing the cache.
I hunted high and low for way too long, dodging muggles with dogs, muggles on scooters, muggles walking, and took so many pics pretending to take in the scenery but alas no cache was to be found. The water was flowing after recent rain and I wan.t prepared to go paddling, so will have to come back another day. Thanks Trickytracey for a challenge here
Found! Not sure if coordinates are off or if it's been moved ever so slightly but a great little geocache - thanks! Some very muddy feet here - some planned for and some not!
It was very tricking trying to find it, but we eventually did. The spot it was in was very clever.
Out for a weekend away at a church ladies camp in Neerim, so came down early to find some caches...
Cool little park

Away for the weekend with omegaman and Happy pants, signing the logs under the team name HHO. Up early and on the road, grabbing a few caches before leaving town. There were a number of muggles about, so had to use a bit of stealth and diversion while trying to find this. Nice to see something a little different and eventually extracted to sign log.
Thanks trickytracey for placing the cache for us to find.

Found this one after a few minutes of searching this morning and luckily we didn't need to get wet in locating this sneaky little hide. It was Happy Feet that got her fingers to this one first in between passing muggles. Thanks trickytracey for the hide.

In town just for the weekend for our annual birthday weekend away.
Happy pants, Happy feet and myself are signing the logs under the team name HHO.
Cheers for the cache.
Lots of jogging muggles around Gz.

Found by Head Chef whilst looking at the eldest’s new house about 170m away
Found ourselves in town for a belated mothers day brunch. With the girls wandering the shopping strip, I scarpered away to grab a few caches. Approached another cache in this park but was scared off by the muggle family enjoying the equipment. With no-one here I was free to conduct a very thorough search, but due to something in past logs, a chose a different approach and very quickly discovered a well hidden cache. TNLNSL. TFTC. Kkams
I was going to have to travel to Drouin to collect my CWA branch's entries in the Craft exhibition (yay we won prizes!!), and as Kato Potato is not only a member of my CWA branch but also my bestest caching buddy, I asked if she wanted to tag along and cache after. I'd travelled on precisely this street only a few months ago to visit a patient but hadn't the time to grab this cache. Today, I was luckier and after attempting to troll, I spotted it and managed a retrieval between visits from a pesky scootering family. TFTC trickytracey
On a lovely excursion to Drouin with Mummy Short Legs to visit the CWA Creative Arts Exhibition (and collect our prizes) this afternoon and of course we took the opportunity to pick up a few local caches too.
This was our first for the afternoon and we enjoyed the stroll although once at GZ we were forced to examine the view very thoroughly (what is with the one extreme orange roof among all the grey ones!?) while a muggle child scooted past... then back again... then past again.... and then again with their entire muggle family! Luckily MSL had the fix on the cache and we signed it in the quiet times! Thanks for the cache trickytracey

Today we explored the area of Drouin and surrounds using Geocaching as a guide.
We picking up a few caches and this was one of them. An easy find at GZ.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found the sneaky spot this was hidden in after a thorough search. Very clever. Worth a favourite point from me. Great park developing in this area. Lots of Muggles coming from both directions didn't help. TFTC
Out with Yorsys today. Find 5590 at 12:38 pm. Tricky hide this one. Had us old blokes fooled till Yorsys spotted it.

Sneeky little sucker. Found with the Swaggies at 22 September 2017 12:46 pm. Find 1580
Great location for a cache. This is a micro. Nephew and niece found it tricky but great way to teach about micro caches. Logged and replaced. TFTC
Couldn't find it the first time but went back today and spotted it straight away. Great hide!
In Warragul for a morning tea to celebrate volunteer week, I decided that I couldn't return home without a couple more smiley faces.
It was a beautiful afternoon for a stroll with Bentley geo-dog
A quick find

Omg this was tough to find. Didn't have a pen so will have to come back another time to write on it.
Found on an afternoon after work where I had a bit of spare time. Thanks for the cache Trickytracey - it was a tricky one!
After a search with lisamia2 going to mark this one as dnf. Hopefully after all the dnf before me this cache can be replaced
Unfortunately we add our names to the dnf list after a lengthy search in all possible areas and a gps that was telling us it was over the fence in the swamp. Think its time the co double checked this cache due to the large number of dnfs and the log that needs replacing and cant be written on. We will be back once we know its been checked and the log replaced.
Oh my glob! I finally found it! Why, don't I feel like a chump! But I told you I'd find it eventually. And at dusk too, with poorer light, I just had an "aha" moment! And the dog was also happy as he was sick of sitting and waiting for me to look fruitlessly in the wrong goddamn spots! Maybe I should teach him to seek caches out sometime? TFTC!
Hey first geocache find
I'm like a smackhead looking for another hit
Im gonna be late for everything from now on

Great spot. Took some friends and they were impressed. I think they're hooked too now.
This one is gonna be my white whale I think! I live nearby so I brought the dog down for a regular walk and the poor thing had to watch me traipse around in the mud for 20 minutes with no luck! Any chance of a hint? Really good hide!
DNF, either I wasn't looking hard enough or the recent rains have washed it away? To be fair it's my first day geocaching, so it's quite possible it's just me!
Another great find while in the area for the Melbourne Mega.
Thanks for adding to the enjoyment of this trip.
Found after a long search.

In the Drouin area for the day. 2 DFN's and three finds.
Second cache Second DFN Second time I've not found this cache.
I hope this isn't an omen for the rest of the day.
Looked everywhere with no luck. Maybe next time.
