Description
Let's get round them all and try to get a photographic log of the Bridges in Tasmania
We all use bridges to cross from one side to the other
Some are bigger than others, some wider.
Keep this cache next to the bridge that has meaning in your life or the one you cross daily or just the one you like the most
Describe the importance of this bridge to you
Please try and take a photo of "your" bridge and post here to build a photographic library of out bridges
Cheers OldSaint.

Sometimes in life you can write a LONG sorry note but the last 2 years what can I say – put that sh-t behind you & cache on. I do have this movable & plaining to cache HARD from Easter onwards. Sorry to movable owner but its in good condition – please unarchive it.
Almost 8 months since this moveable was last found or sighted, so we'll archive it to stop others looking for something that is not in location. If it does reappear, the listing can be re-instated...
I did a side trip on my long day trip to pick up 7 movables at the same location – 7 for the $ of 1 visit – in was like winning lotto – will move on – many thanks for your movable – a smile on the dial as they say 
Dropped off on the Grabben Gullen Road.
Hello again. Picked up in a bag of small moveables.

I finally had a chance to move a bunch of moveables in my possession this week. The are 'Resting' between a place of wanderer rest and permanent rest in a the stump of a tree that was put to rest quite some time ago.
In stump just off the road across from the Holiday Park entry and a couple of meters back toward the cemetery entry. Should be covered in a bit of leaf litter.

Found this moveable, as well as a swag of other ones between Casino and Lismore NSW - Never before have so many moveable caches appeared in my local area, so I took a drive and picked them all up. There's a few other cachers that I'm sure will love to see them too, so I'll share the love around and then they'll soon be on their way to their next location. Thanks for hiding this one!
Out caching with Smittengranny in the rain and managed to grab this cache on the way through. It was firmly stuck in the post but managed to finally get it out. Thanks for the cache - Smittengranny will move it on soon.
I was out caching with Kittykatch this afternoon and picked this one up. I will move it on soon. Thanks for sharing it OldSaint.

Dropped this off on the way into the ACT to move it on it's way.
Was stuck for a while due to the holder not doing too much travelling lately.
The tub at the drop off point was broken and damp inside so will need to be replaced (we left the TB's in a plastic bag).

With a day off and an event in ‘The Rock’ plus pre-geocaching lead to a great day out. I also got a FTF on the cache ‘Break the Drive – Urana’ (GA12529). 
I started out with collecting the finds around Urana which included the most disgusting cache I have ever found (GC3BDFX). [xx(]
[xx(] I completely disapprove of that cache and hope to never see a hide like that ever again. [xx(][xx(] I visited a few different spots around and I enjoyed the ‘Leap year 2020 at The Rock’ event hosted by B&MG. A great BBQ and many geo-conversations were had by all. There were also many GCA moveable caches signed while we were there. TB visit on all caches. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the caching community. TFTE and TFTC’s

Event day in Shepparton. time to take this one for another trip.
I’ve escaped from Tasmania! I hid in a cacher’s luggage and flew across the water to the mainland, to discover more bridges here.
I heard there was an event in Shepparton near a swing bridge across the Goulburn River today, so that is where you will find me, on the moveables table, hoping to cadge a ride further north.
Who knows I might even make it to the nation’s capital, or even get to see the holy grail, Sydney Harbour Bridge!

Found at my January Catchup event at Hadspen yesterday, and I was going to move it to the big island next week.
But then I noticed it is supposed to stay in Tasmania so will relocate it here instead.
Please note this is currently in in transit.

We attended the January Catchup event in Hadspen today as did four other teams and lots of moveable caches and some TBs. This moveable cache was one of the many on the table at the event, TFTC
We hadn't been this way for some time as the introduction of FOGO bins to the Central Coast means fewer visits to the tip (waste management centre)for us. A build up of fallen branches in recent winds gave us a reason to come this way so stopped to pick up a few moveables close by. This was one of them
Thanks for the moveable OldSaint.
Grabbed and will move on soon.

found at a 'chance meeting'at the Sunshine Home with OldSaint and whitewebbs. Whitewebbs took this movable to rehide.
Reading previous logs, this moveable may still be in location OR may have been found, removed and not relocated yet. We know moveables can sometimes be forgotten / missed / left in the bottom of a caching bag, so a check has been undertaken on this one.
An update will be posted within 28 days….

This fine summer's evening attended geocaching australia event: The Moveables are Here!!, graciously hosted by Tassie Trekkers. Was fortunate to make it to the event as was not working and I only noted that it was going to be held on the previous evening - almost missed it. So many moveables in the one spot, roughly 150 in attendance. Nothing for it but to record a couple of notebook pages full of numbers. Found at an event in Riverside, no bridges around here, so regrettably none to describe.. I do so like a good bridge though.. thanks..!!

Found at the Snug moveable meet along with many other moveables. What a busy time I will have logging all these moveables. I found four moveables at Evandale and bought these along for the ride. Other people bought many more though! Everyone had a great time. Today’s event will help everyone in their position on the ladder for the summer game. The game is described below

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST
This new game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.
On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.
For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile
Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.
Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.
Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.
Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.
Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.
Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.
Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.
At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.
A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache. In general the following applies:
A moved log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with no new co-ordinates may indicate one of two situations:
The cache has been found and left in place.
The best way to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether it is still in place.
The cache has been found and the cacher has taken it away to re-hide it.
The best was to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether they have taken it away.
In essence, you will need to read the last log to determine whether the cache is in place or whether the cache has been moved. Remember that even though the logs indicate the cache may be at a certain location, it may have been picked up and moved only moments before you arrived. That's part of the challenge of a moving cache; you're never quite sure whether it's a DNF because you can't spot it or it's been moved along.

Thanks for the cache
The event was a great idea (well done Stainless Steel Rat) as it tied in with a nearby GC event that was scheduled after this. Coming at the start of the new summer games also allowed the attendees to rack up a few points for the Journey or Destination Game (information below)
The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST
This new game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.
On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.
For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile
Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.
Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.
Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.
Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.
Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.
Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.
Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.
At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.
A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache. In general the following applies:
A moved log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with no new co-ordinates may indicate one of two situations:
The cache has been found and left in place.
The best way to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether it is still in place.
The cache has been found and the cacher has taken it away to re-hide it.
The best was to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether they have taken it away.
In essence, you will need to read the last log to determine whether the cache is in place or whether the cache has been moved. Remember that even though the logs indicate the cache may be at a certain location, it may have been picked up and moved only moments before you arrived. That's part of the challenge of a moving cache; you're never quite sure whether it's a DNF because you can't spot it or it's been moved along.

Wow what a collection of moveables there was to be had today at the Snug Event and this was one of them. It was like feeding time at the Zoo. A well supported event. Well done SSR on getting us together. TFTM
