By Spladem on 01-Dec-12. Waypoint GA5187

Hope someone can pick up here.

Safe travels.

Yes it was here safe and sound.

Bit of wait going in the car for a short trip.

Take back a little closer to Melbourne.

A review of this moveable has shown that the cache may still be in location, just sitting there waiting to be found. So, if you're in the area, or simply passing through, why not stop and help it on its way again.....

I've admired this cache before, but I'm surprised to find I have failed to log it.
Claimed for the Blitz 2019 this time.

Left to be enjoyed by the next passerby.

TFTC Splad.

Headed back south with a posse.....!

Picked up with some mates and now headed south.....!

finally moved along on a visit to my son, re-hidden ready to be found

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….

Found when in attendance at the winery pop up event. collected to move along.

Found this one on the table at the event for Australia Day for the moveables. Thanks for the moveable which was one of 101 that made their way to Ebenezer from far away places to spend some time in the local winery before scattering to new places. Good luck on any further moves

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST

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.

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.

Headed up to Ebenezer with LuckyL10n to attend the Aussie Day event. 45 degree day made for a bit of a fun trip, however it was pleasant in the winery building. A good few hardy souls were in attendance as well as over 100 moveables. Some good conversation with cachers not met before and a good couple of hours was had by all. The trip home was a little different to what was expected but turned out ok....

Thanks to all the CO's for the caches...

Found at the Australia Day event at Tizzana

Called into Tizzana Winery to buy some wine and saw the moveables and the list. The family wanted to continue on so said "Hi" to a few we'd previously met then headed on with some wine. Diolch for the moveable. I didn't pick up any.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Attended the 'Australia Day Moveable Event 2018' and came face to face with other like minded cachers, one being another lucky (luckyl10n) and 101 moveables in the area. Many thanks to the CO's who have published them over time and others who bought them together for the event.

Found this one at the Australia Day Moveable Event 2018 event held at Tizzana Winery in Ebenezer. Another fantastic turnout at the event run for the current 2018/19 Journey or Destination game being run on Geocaching Australia which saw a total of 101 moveables come together. Thanks for sharing.

Will be at the event this afternoon...

I was happy to have a visit from a pile of movavebles accompanied by SDL before he takes them further north.

Thanks

found in the hands of a cacher with a sack full of movables. TFTC!

#GA3352 - 15:00; After a few days on the road with Sol de lune we have now completed our journey through the mid west of New South Wales and returned home to our final destination. This moveable was one of many awaiting our return and was spotted in the hands of Sdl as it tours the National Capital. TFTC Splad

Grabbed from my event and will move on again shortly. A great little turn for any early-ish event. Good to see those who turned up, and thanks for coming along.

Thanks for the cache, and apologies for the late log.

Found this one, and a pile of others, at the Journey or Destination event in Canberra
TFTC - another smiley, and another square I can choose in the game

After a failed mission to join the crew doing the ‘BLACK OPs - Carpe Noctem’ (GC32WN6) cache this weekend due to being unable to get time off work (on Friday and Saturday) and other commitments arising, I did however sweet talk my way into having Sunday off. This then lead me to take a look around and see what was available within my free day to make it a day out. After taking a look around the GC and GCA caches, I found 2 events on the same day close to each other and I decided on attending them both. After this I took a look at what caches I could find along the way and made my trail to make it an enjoyable day out. Something I didn’t expect was, a FTF which was on cache GA13305. This added to the fun. I would like to thank all the CO’s of the caches I found and for the fun and enjoyment I had while finding them.
Today’s Totals: 44 Finds
2 Events
9 GC (GroundSpeak)
33 GCA

This was one of the 29 moveable caches I found and signed today. TFTC

I spent the morning in the company of some incedible cachers from Canberra and Temora at an Event organised by Sol de Lune to enlighten us on the new GCA Game. I for one understand the game better now so thanks to SDL and Black Bunny for enlightening us. The weather was hot and sunny so at times chairs were moved around to stay in the shade. Masses of Movables appeared and were eagerly found but not moved by all present.

Playing Journey or Destination? Come and find out a bit more, and maybe grab a moveable or two at the same time.

Found (but not moved) during the Meet The Trackables event in Brimbank Park.

Well this one is certainly different.
Found at the Meet the Moveables event at Brimbank Park.
After reading its history I’m glad it didn’t remain archived, but I certainly didn’t offer to continue its journey.
Thanks for sharing it with us Splad.

Headed down to Melbourne for the 'Meet the Moveables' event at Brimbank Park. Lots of moveables in attendance and this was one of them. Managed to sign a lot of logs, along with all the other cachers doing the same thing. A few laughs and a good time was had by all.

A good day to be out and a great event. Also great to see so any older moveables. Thanks for this one, which is now with me in Canberra and will be moved on shortly.

This one was a bit of a surprise, glad I'm not carrying it back tonight. Found at the Meet the Moveables event today

I last saw this one at Alexandra last year. Nice to catch up again.

So many moveable. I hate copy paste logs but today I'll will fall. I'll make a separate note on caches I do anything extra with

Picked this one up for the meet the moveables event.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Coming along to the meet the moveables event, so obviously not archived.

This geocache appears to be MIA so to stop it clogging the search lists we'll archive it. This is done to keep the geocaching Australia clean and up to date.

If the owner can confirm it is in place the listing can be resurrected by placing an "unarchived" log against it.

Not sure if the previous finder did a cut and past, but it seems he either left something or took something as a fairly comprehensive search by Sol de lune and I failed to produce the goods today

Second DNF on this one. Searched the area with LuckyL10n for a good 10 minutes, but alas, nothing could be spotted.

Hopefully it hasn't gone forever......thanks anyway Splad.

The last day of States of the Nation and my first opportunity to get some caches. Let's see what we found and what we can claim.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for this cache here today.

Dropped off quickly to fine others a chance to find and log, and it's too heavy to carry around.
Thanks again.

Found at 10:49
Out looking for some last minute States of the Nation claims and noticed this cache has a logable name. Luckily it fits on my bag so I can carry it subtly.
Thanks Spladem. I think.

I remember seeing this one at the Alexandra Mega with Fitzy - forgot to log it until now !

TFTC !!

Picked up another moveable from here and replaced with this one. Safe travels

Walking around at the Alexandra MEGA event and I aimlessly almost fell over this gnome. What an exciting little collection of moveables out the front of a tent.....I quickly added my name to the logs and was sprung by Ikkibrady mid-signature. We swapped Geocacher codewords and he invited me to take a trackable or two. I grabbed a couple, but this one was hefty and huge.....and I was due in the Show and Shine race soon so needed to be a lightweight for speed. TFTC Splad

Fixed.. Long Live this weird heavy guy..

GCA 1816. Spotted this moveable at the Alexandra Mega.

Only saw a few moveables here which was a bit sad, so this one was a welcome find.

Ready to be found..

Found it at the Alexandra event in Victoria. The CO may want to unarvhive it as it is still in play. TFTC

Going through the photos of trackables I'd seen at the Alexandra Event, I realised this was in fact a GCA Movable. So although I didn't sign the physical log (as I didn't know it had one!) I did see the cache on the trackables table at the event. TFTC!

Holey Moley that's an ugly BINGO! and there was no telling what was living it in - mud, webs . . . . . But a moveable is a something we hardly ever get our hands on so we were happy to find the heavy big thing at the Alexandra Event. TFTC Splad.

Spotted on the table inside the shed near the trackables. I wasn't sure whether there would be GCA caches at the event but nice to see a few. I had a movable in my bag that I brought over from TAS but ended up just bringing it back home. Thanks for sharing this one Splad.

Found it at the Alexandra event registration and TB table.
Surprised to see it is archived. TFTC

Rated: for Overall Experience

Picked it up from Ikkibrady, as it seems to have been at his for to long. Will move on shortly

This cache appearing Mia is entirely by fault. Cache still exists and I have just passed it on to buhfuhguh to move with some other moveables. It has been sitting in my front lawn for far too long and I kept forgetting it was there. My hugest apologies about this one

This cache looks like it may be MIA so we'll archive it to stop it turning up in the lists. If the cache is rediscovered it can be reactivated by placing an unarchived log against it.

No go for me......and reading the previous log, I sort of get the impression that it has been taken, but not moved on. Will try and check with the previous finder....

Thanks anyway...

2nd look for this one. Made a deep find. First thought it was junk as there are a few bits around this area but then saw the qr code and realised I made the find. No log sheet though. Will move when the weather clears

Rated: for Overall Experience

Dropped off while out for the day.

Caching my way home on a Friday afternoon. It doesn't get any better than that. Found after waiting for muggles to pass. Thanks, I'll move on soon.

Left it where I found it as it was too big for me to carry (forgot to bring my back-pack) and it's fairly safe here too

No log book that I could find, I did take a photo of the QR code though should proof be required of my visit. This wasn't quite what I expected it to be, although in it's current state it is about all it's good for!...

Kunama,
This cache had a logsheet when I placed it..
I suggest you have another look..

Cheers for the thumbs up..

Spladem

Well, it was exactly where the coords said it'd be.
So were several spiders, one of which has set up a home inside the structure. There's even a wrapped up meal in there.
This thing isn't water tight, and I don't want to swap any of my stuff for a live wild spider. I made a logbook for it, but without a lid on this thing, there's no point me putting one in. I question whether this should remain a cache...

Rated: for Overall Experience

This was the first of a bunch for me this evening but it wasn't the greatest of starts as even though I found the cache at 18:15, I couldn't find the logbook/logsheet anywhere . I took a pickie just in case (attached).

Left the cache where I found it.

TNLN. Thanks Spladem.

Dropping a few moveables while out fetching s-facit.

Mrs F was first to spot this one and immediately declared that she was certainly not going to be carrying it! Thankfully we had just picked up Load Binder Larry which did a sterling job as carrying strap!
Thanks Spladem

Have updated hint and made minor adjustments to coordinates. Good to go.

The skybirds weren't playing nicely with me here today...

Moved down south.

Picked up today on the way to the Murray Marathon.

Had hoped to take down south but it was either Granma or the anchor and Granma didn't look pleased.

Gotcha - will hang onto you until we travel down to Phillip Island on Boxing Day

Has a new home.

Passed on.

Grabbed

Perhaps I was too slow, perhaps I just missed it.

Ready for the next finder

Thank spladam
