Attended a farewell event at Bells Parade at Latrobe and passed on all the moveable caches we had in the vehicle to another team that was also in attendance
Out and about on a beautiful autumn day to rehide some moveables we'd had for a bit and couldn't resist the chance to pick these ones up to try to do more in the Crystal Cavern. We weren't sure if they'd still be in place after the last found log but there they were just waiting for us. We'll try to get these back out again as soon as possible, thanks for the cache
We spent the long weekend in the area working through some geoart and anything else that caught our attention.
We don't often go to the moveables but figured why not. Way too many to move them all but we had a lot of fun meeting them. TFTCs

Hi whitewebbs
After a night with little sleep, we left home early to catch up a great caching mate from the North West Coast
Moveables were exchanged, of which, this was one
Sainting the cache at 0845 hours
Sirius and I walked part of the Geilston Bay Track looking for caches along the way
It was great to see an cacher as experienced as he is at work - good experience
Thanks for sharing some time together this morning Sirius; greatly enjoyed and appreciated
TFTC and cheers

On our way to Wilmot to do a new history cache we found spots to drop off most of the moveable caches we've collected recently, they're ready to move on
We needed a find today to fill a gap on our dragon zone calendar so mr sharnie's tribe headed out before starting his afternoon shift to see what he could find. A quick find in a familiar spot netted him three moveable caches, bonus!! We'll move these ones out again in a couple of days. Thanks for the cache
Finally moved to Leven River...with 2 mates...cheers ST.
Went down to the glen huon area to find a few movables. This was a nice quick find on the trip around. Only 2 DNF's.

Grabbed from under Neville's and Boris's protection.
There were so many there that it took me a while to grab them all, lucky Neville and Boris move very slowly.....

Parties are not allowed on a school night, yet Neville and Boris have defied the rules again! Oh I guess it is technically school holidays. But I have to work tomorrow so there better not be too much noise at this movable gathering.
Thanks for the movable cache!

Dropped in to party with Neville and Boris
A day out for double points started on the Paradise Peninsula, Sandford then down to Tasman Peninsula and off to the middle of Tasmania to Tunbridge, (well almost) and back to Oatlands for tea with muggle Mum and Tassie Trekkers. That was foiled due to everything being shut on the public holiday. Had to resort to a monte carlo biscuit and thermos coffee! Good to catch up with family and swap some moveables. Now headed South.

Found a group of moveables while out finding somewhere to place our Large caches, We decided to leave them in their hiding places for another team to find as we wouldnt have been able to move them for a wile. TFTC

We seem to have collected up a few moveable caches recently so decided to get some of them out and moving again. This one is out with a mate for company
About to head out to do the last of the Christmas shopping when we noticed that there were several new moveables in the area. So shopping was put on hold while we searched for and found several caches we'd seen before and some new ones. We'll move these on in the next couple of days. TFTC
Two frogs and an angel waiting in a quiet spot
This was one of the caches we found at the base of a tree under bark and a brick. As we have seen this cache before we will take it for a ride and move it on soon.
rescued from the seagulls at Mures. Will move on soon. TFTM

I found it but it hopped away before I could actually move it myself

Will drop at the above coordinates about 8 pm on the 1st of March
Found myself with energy after work so went for a quick stroll to collect some frogs. Thanks for this
I came looking for a frog that I hadn't found yet, and ended up carrying out the lot. I'll return the container this weekend.
At the frog party......JAB's would probably like his frog carrying conatiner back at some stage too
Hmmm. Spent so much time looking in the trees for this one moving further away from GZ cuz it couldn't be found at the 6 foot mark.
Then Tim Tam goes back and falls out of the tree and finds Hopeful on the ground. Bet he was getting height sickness up there and jumped out

After spending what seemed like an eternity looking 6ft up trees (which isn't easy when you are only 5'5") I fell out of said tree and thought to myself I wonder if the frog did the same. Sure enough laying upside down in the dirt was poor Hopeful. Have picked him up and dusted him off. Will send him back out soon
Collected from JAB's Letterbox, just been waiting for them to be moved there before moving on. All are hidden on the domain
Thanks for the frog
Thanks for the frog
I apologise. I didn't actually go back with the coords, but went and collected it. I just looked on google satellite, and it does look like they were out. So I've moved it to a new location, and we'll try it there, and nearby is Frogeater, so you might be able to get both with the visit. I hope there's more success here.
Came for a sticky beak as we were in the area and we like a challenge. I think the hider needs to confirm the frog as we couldn't find it either
I tried so hard to find this frog! Look at the base of every Steele pole. but no luck in finding the frog! Maybe it decide to jump into the river let! Who knows! Maybe I was not trying hard enough?
