A park and grab find as my wife and I made our way home from holidays.
Log is wet and the container is brittle, broken lid - didn't have a replacement

After attending a GC event, Nibletricecakes and I tackled this trail. Great to get more shots in the current Battleships game. TFTC Minniek.
Out in Goulburn with GLISS! to find some GCA’s for the current game. Great to have a little trail to attack. Thanks for the cache.
I planned to travel through Goulburn to the coast this week and had some stuff to drop off to the CO & Co. I wasn't going to get any geocaching done because of towing the caravan. However, long story short...
Thanks so much for letting me stop here for the night and go find a few caches. It was good getting to know you better.

Much quieter once past that turnoff. Visited Goulburn based on the weather prediction but Sunday traffic mayhem. Thanks Minniek.
Found with CBRChic and mtrax on the way to the Oz Geomuster at Wollongong. We signed using a stamp "Kayak Cachers".
Thanks MinnieK.

Found with Throsbyonchurch and DustyJasperJet. A couple of the logs haven't been signed but I cannot remember which ones, please feel free to delete them. I'll put them on my list to sign next time I am in Goulburn. Thanks for the cache hide.
Goulburn trip January 6th 2019. I decided to come up to Goulburn to try and grab the caches that were ready to be found. The trip up Mount Grey was the highlight. A good day and it was not too hot.
Thanks

Went on a trip to Goulburn with teamMerlin, Splitty Miller JJCC, alnic39, lachnic62 & ZoNic66. Overall we found 10 GA caches as part of the summer games and a few GC caches along the way.
A quick find was made at GZ. With the cache in hand we signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for bringing me to the area and thanks for placing the cache minniek

Found with Kittykatch and Smittengranny on our way back from Sydney chasing old caches.
Lovely day to be out and about and happy to pick this one up.
There was a huge spider on this one. Scared the crap out of me. Hope I scared it too.

Smittengranny got out of the car to help me find this one, only to find it laying on the ground, totally exposed - how did I miss that?? So we SL and put it back as per hint. TFTC

This cache brought back memories of the violet crumble bars we shared with our study groups in our matric years. Neither of us can remember when we last had one - may be we'll have to see if we can get one to celebrate finding caches in this series.
Initially we failed to spot this cache. However on close inspection we spotted the cache container among the rubbish that had been dumped under the sign. We retrieved the sistema and added our name to the log book. The container and contents were in very good condition.
Thanks for this cache Minniek. If we looked over the ground level rubbish the view over the countryside was very pretty. We placed the container between
the guard rail post and the rail. Hopefully this will keep it safe.

A quick stop on my way to Queanbeyan this evening. Rushing a little to beat darkness.

#GA2811 - 12:32; After a busy week of caching with Sol de lune on our 2018 GeoMuster Mega adventure, which took us as far north as Kingscliffe and included many, many stops along the highways and byways there and back for nearly 200 GCA finds, we decided to clear up a few more in the local(ish) area to see if we could break the 200 barrier for the Mega mission. The last mission of a long week of caching saw us hit Goulburn and pick up a couple of series. After climbing the dizzy heights of Mt Gray for six out of seven in that series, we collected a couple of other caches before tackling the remainder of this series, having found some on earlier visits, including a couple before they were published! All good with this one and quickly added our names to the log and ended up with 205 GCA finds for the week. A new record for me I suspect TFTC minniek

Last day of the Sol de Lune / LuckyL10n NSW adventure. After attending the Morisset Mega, it was 4 day drive up to and return from Tweed Heads grabbing a load of GCA caches along the way. Seemed appropriate to clean out Goulburn on the way home as well.
We started with the series on Mt Gray and then headed around Goulburn picking off a few others before hitting the rest of this series. No problems making this find and our names were soon in the log book.
Thanks Minniek....good to finally grab these ones as well.

Found on the start of our mega adventure to ACT, NSW, QLD and beyond.
Today was another fine day for a drive around Goulburn with Tassie Trekkers.
Not many muggles around today and a good variety of hides.
Thanks for the cache minniek,
