Picked this guy up from his location and moved him down the highway a little as there is a new GC cache in that same location...all good to again.
After enjoying Freddo's company on our holiday, we left him to share his journey with someone else
We travel this road regularly for work so made a stop today and a quick find.

Last seen hopping down the road following a wombat
We've had these moveable caches for too long but today we got the chance to get them back out again, hidden with a mate
There have been a few caches in this area for a while now, they've had a find but it looked like they might still be in place so we decided to go for a look and there they were. We'll move them on again in the next few days. Great to see such an old cache still moving! Thanks for the caches
we found Freddo hanging with Stevie and a cow. Left them alone to continue their party
Handed to Tassie Trekkers at a family catchup
Had to go to Launceston today for a family event today so took the remaining caches that had landed on our doorstep and tried to get them all back out again
This moveable cache was one of a group in a bag that arrived on our doorstep. This will help our tally in the Blitz game we hope, moving them all out again will be a big job but all part of the fun. We'll get them out again in the next couple of days. Thanks for the cache
Found a bag of moveable's today in the hands of DEZ055. Signed these after our walk along the Dooleys Heritage Trail. TFTM
Found this whilst out and about with Trimbletas in search of GCA caches to get us on the board for the blitz games. TFTC
Received from old mate at Geilston Bay....many tftc...cheers ST.

DEZ055 rocked back into work with a couple of moveables after returning from the North East yesterday on a job.
Was out in Railton hiding caches when I stopped to find this one while close by. A quick find was made. TFTC
Found It in the hands of Daryvafder.

After a beautiful walk around trevallyn dam we decided to do a spot of geocaching and ended up finding Freddo here.
Will move him along very soon but for now he hopped into my car

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 North.
A chance encounter with the last finder led to finding this cute moveable. TFTM

Found with my gnomes and a lot of other creatures! I keep telling them "no more parties", but do they listen?

Recently I read a post on one of the social media groups lamenting the fact that almost all recent GC CITO events were held in rural areas.
None in the Greater Melbourne Metropolitan area.
I suggested the easy way to fix this was to stand up and organise their own, in an area that suited them.
Leading by example always seems to be the best course of action, so I have hosted four Clean up the beach events on consecutive Sundays, this month.
It's really not that hard.
So... then I thought... maybe I should clean up my act too... Starting with my emails and then my caching bags... I discovered something interesting...
A moveable cache... and when I opened it up... two more moveable caches, nestled safely inside.
My sincere apologies to the respective COs, other players and the game in general.
Situation rectified.
Cache on!
After finding a well known piglet earlier, I went home. After dinner I took a stroll , found a moveable and hid this cute little fellow.
A new, yellow, jumping frog has been secured to the original cache container, I hope you like it.
Cache hidden, waypoint averaged, logged online, coordinates, and hint updated.
Thanks for the adventure

G’day Freddy, it was nice to have made your acquaintance at the Meet the Moveables event at Brimbank Park.

Found and removed from the table at the "Meet The Movables" event in Brimbank Park today.
What great log holder, made to stand the tests of time, not sure about Freddo though. He may have defected. I will see if I can find one of his cousins to proxy for him.
Thanks for the cache JABs.

A quick pickup of moveables today for a secret meeting to take place in just a little while. Your geocache would ike to join the secret activities so it may not move for a little while but it will be safe and sound and will be moved along (and hopefully logged quite a bit) in the not too distant future.
Took nothing, left nothing.

At northern end of the Caltex wayside stop northbound
Freddo wanted to hang around here for a while.
He didn’t like the music we were playing in the car stereo.
Looking for a lift with a younger generation

Freddo was hanging around at my event at Waurn Ponds.
He wanted to hitch a ride northward with me, and I told him if he was prepared to travel to Point Lonsdale and Queenscliff with me tomorrow, we’d take him northward with us on Monday.
He seems apply with that proposition.
He certainly doesn’t take up much room in the vehicle.
He is in safe hands JABs

Drop at Event for 9th of June Waurn Ponds
Moved and ready to be found again.
After a day out meeting traveling cachers in town and then a nice drive down South to a quick event, with the weather being unsure what it was doing we didnt do much walking but grabbed a few roadside hides before heading home and this is when we dropped off these moveables on the Eastern Shore.
Hidden in a common spot that has so far proved a safe place for moveables.

Moved this one closer to Waratah as requested by the CO
A quick find during a brief respite from family duties. A quick loop to Oldina and back netted five moveable caches and a locationless cache so a very profitable run on Christmas Eve. TFTC
Would love for this fellow to stay around Wynyard or better still move closer to Waratah.

After hitching a ride in our suitcase Freddo is ready for action
We are currently touring Victoria with our geovan in tow, using geocaching as a guide. We have visited many amazing locations through geocaching and today our journey bought us past here and to your cache Freddo. After 22 months in residence we were happy to find Freddo and to pick him up and take him on his next adventure.

Along with the other moveable here, this has helped Cerberus claim the Wangaratta dZ. Cache on!
Have grabbed from the Callum Brae stump, even though I've already found this. Freddo will be coming with me to Victoria, to claim some dZs. TFTC again JABs!
An extensive search in the area turned up quite a few spiders with webs and some rubbish, but no caches. Perhaps our GPSrs were out this evening, or perhaps someone else got here first.

On the move at last for a new mission, please don't go looking this one will not be there until later tomorrow.
