This cache has become a target for muggles. We will archive it and consider hiding it again after some time has passed. Hopefully the bison tube collector will have lost interest by then.
This was our first time Geocaching. Had to look up what a Bison tube was but still no luck.
Found log and what may be the cache container but it needs maintenace as the log was just stuffed in the hiding spot.
Ms FV attending conference in Bendigo and taken the opportunity to grab some smilie faces.
Nice hide.

Away for a long weekend of caching with Freddo and Four Fun.
Over 300 caches in 4 days means that the logs will be mainly generic.
The main target of our mission was to finish off the Mt Disappointment series. We achieved our target along with other caches as we headed east and then west.
My apologies for the generic logs.

The cache had not been done up properly or disturbed as it was in 2 pieces, so after logging I put it all back together. All well in the end.
Thanks
Thanks
An easy find for my birthday morning in Bendigo! Now off to the mines and the dragon museum!
Nice and quick find on a chilly morning. Was staying at the nearby caravan park so it made sense to go grab it. TFTC metamorphic mac
Quick and easy one. First one for the day. Happy Birthday Anja

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.
The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.
**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by 17th August,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?
You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:
- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.
- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.
- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 17th August). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.
You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will unfortunately have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.
Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the instructions posted above.

Found on a day out with the Learner driver while she's busy clocking up hours. I remember the original park and grab. This is still a goody but as previously mentioned the lid is missing off the bison tube so I'm not sure how long it will stay dry. TFTC TNLNSL

Found - log page is full. Only half a container though? Not sure if that’s the idea.
Quick find for Geoson 6.

We had previously found remnants of this cache a few years ago. So I was very happy to have found this cache again. Signed a very minuscule piece of paper. TFTC. The Geokids enjoyed the playground.

Found with boo09 on our way home from Bendigo after football and some shopping.
A fairly quick find after we were almost muggled out. 8 year old boo09 was a great distraction.
TFTC. It needs some attention.

Day 14 of a streak, as we are travelling a bit this year we are hoping to do it without going insane.
Its tricky to find a time when this spot is empty but today I was in luck. The cache has no lid and a still has a lolly wrapper as its log so it really needs some love.
TFTC though - isn't it time you guys came out and played again?

Out for a day of caching with the Geo-Mum while visiting the family in Bendigo for Christmas. This was the last of eleven caches for the day. Whilst we had been here before it was when the cache was missing but today Mr Pooky made a quick easy find on our way back to Bendigo. TFTC.
After searching on the wrong side foind what I was looking for. Great hide. CIGC TNLN TFTC
What do you do on a grey late winters day when there is no Orienteering? Check for geocaches of course!
We found the original in March 16, now this one today, will there be others. SL TFTC
Found today with CBJH1900 after a very chilly start to the day. TFTC. Seemed to visit this place some years back so it was a quick find today!
Dropped the grandkids at school and a bit of quiet time, another to add to my count tftc
Heading to St Arnaud for the weekend and grabbing a few along the way. We made this find as it was loaded on my GPS, it was only when logging that I saw it had be disabled but it is still there.
Thanks metamorphic mac for placing the cache for us to find.

Suscoe's last day in Bendigo for this trip.
Woke to a cloudy sky and a few drops of rain which disappeared very quickly making way for a sunny day.
We wandered the western side of the city with some interesting locations found as we followed the GPS.
We are already looking forward to our next trip up this way.
Thanks to metamorphic mac for this nice hide.
We decided to lunch nearby and we enjoyed the surrounds of this little park.
Oh the delightful late Autumn sun shine.
A great day to be alive on.

Geocaching has taken me on many adventures over the years all over Australia and overseas. It has also introduced me to a brilliant and diverse group of people, many of whom are now close friends.
Today I was lucky enough to be out and about so I targeted this cache.
Sorry for the late log, but thanks for adding to the adventure!

Find # 4273 @ 1800 H
Found with Tyred n Cranky
Over in Bendigo for the day to attend the Central Victorian Get Together Event,
Last stop for the day when heading home. I can remember getting the old cache here and was great to see this small park put back on the caching map.
Sadly the "Hide" was in place but only with a log, no bison tube was found.

We are staying at the caravan park and after checking the GPS found a good reason to check out the locality. The actual bison tube seems to have gone missing so the log is without protection. TFTC.
Made a quick find here, We remember doing another one here some time ago.
A good hiding spot. Signed and replaced. TFTC.

On my way to the '9 Months to the event in Alexandra event' in Wedderburn today. A quick find and first to log the newly replaced cache! I think I've been to this park for a cache before, but these types of parks are pretty common in this and surrounding areas. Thanks for the cache metamorphic mac.

And here I was again in Bendigo
Don't worry ...
... I'm not staying
But I may as well grab some caches on me way through
This one on the outskirts tickled me fancy,
and after searching the nearby scenery for about 10 minutes longer than I should have,
found the cache
Nice hide [^]
I'll give it a fave point

Find #1194 for me. Having failed at Bendigo Stadium, I moved on to this cache - one of the few local ones still left for me to find. On arrival, there was a muggle with a dog right at GZ. Ugh! Luckily for me the muggle got up to leave then with a smile said "I know what you're doing" Whew! Muggle wasn't a muggle afterall! Now that I was free to search I spotted the clever hide immediately then chatted with my new friend about several local geocaches. I did find the original but that was over 4 years ago so my memory of it had faded.Thanks for placing this new replacement cache metamorphic mac!
Geofamily trip to Victoria... Cool!
Mrs Moneydork, Moneydork, sushilord and I left Friday morning for a 4 day jaunt over the border to find a cache or two
Two nights in Wangaratta and then a night in Bendigo left me with 10 DNFs and 205 cache finds one of which was a FTF
Day 4 was travelling from Bendigo to Berri then home and with 2 DNFs and 21 finds, it was another good day
As I walked in, I thought this place looked familiar
Then as I found the cache, I realised that the hide was exactly where I have been before!
That made for a very quick find

The geofamily are off on another trip to Mexico. Fun, sore backsides (for some) and Dad getting the geomobile stuck and breaking his bike, TWICE were the highlights of the trip. One of the running jokes for the trip was 'If it's 2.5T it's laying on the ground, if it's 2.5D it's under that pile of rocks or in the open, if it's listed as large we are looking for an eclipse tin' which came about due to a number of early finds. The lasting memory from this trip will be the grass seeds!!!
Geodad is driving around in circles again, it's anybodies guess where we'll stop next. This was the first on the way out of town, we all remember visiting this location on a previous trip.
Thanks for the cache metamorphic mac.

Oh a second to find! That's the closest I've been to a first. In Bendigo for the week end and needed a cache find for today. So found this one on the way home from IGA. TFTC
FTF! I knew exactly where to go for this cache so it was a quick trip to GZ. Love this sneaky little hide! I beautiful morning to be out and about before it heats up later this afternoon. Thank you for the cache metamorphic mac!
