Description
I am a contenter in the 2015/16 gegnome2 race
I am taking part in the GeGnome Moveable Cache Race of 2015/2016.
Racing commences 00:00:00 1 December 2015 AEDST and concludes 23:59:59 31 January 2016 AEDST. Please come and find me and move me on quickly.
Caches must be found, moved and rehidden by the same geocacher.
There is no limit to the number of times other geocachers can find / move the cache provided there are at least two other finds / moves in between. The owner can also move the cache provided there are at least two moves in between.
If a geocacher moves your geocache overseas and it remains unfound overseas for 1 week or more, the geocacher may move your geocache back to the country of origin without breaking the "2 moves" rule.
There is no limit to the distance other geocachers can move a geocache.
Other geocachers in the game may find / move your geocache, but to play fair they're asked to move it on within 2 days
Geocaches must be hidden where the stated co-ordinates indicate and may then, and only then, be moved.

Logs
We took him on an outing today, then dumped him on the side of the road as he's worn out his welcome at our house.
As this gnome doesn't know doesn't know where it's going, we'll give him a week or two at J & J HQ to think about it. We don't know where he's going either, so it'll be a surprise for us all!
Thanks Tassie Trekkers.
This moveable may fit that brief, as reading previous logs it may still be at the posted co-ords, just sitting there waiting for the next finder to give it a go.
So, if you’re in area why not stop by and help it on its way.
The find at GZ was nice and easy
Cheers
Given it was a sports oval, that seemed reasonable; until I reached GZ. Quickly reassessing and looking for a "gum tree" soon had a gnome in hand. TFTG
Safe travels!!!!
As we turned off the main road we were pleased to see that the track leading to the river was dry. We felt our 2WD, low clearance street car would be able to manage this. We were about a third of the way to the first group when the track deteriorated and we found ourselves straddling some deep ruts the result of 4WD in the wet. Slowly and carefully we made our way towards the hide. We were able to park within 25m of the hide.
Accurate coordinates led us to the well hidden swag which, to our surprise, was a supermarket bag that was well tied up. We had no time to check all the moveable so grabbed the lot and stashed the bag, moveables and all in the car. It was then a slow trip back to the junction and down the next track to the next gathering or what turned out to be an equably daunting trip to the next hide where we found another bag of caches. We then headed back to the junction with the third track and a third group of caches.
We saw some awesome camping spots by the river on our way in and out and were glad to make it out with out any damage to the car apart from a very thick layer of dust.
After a very full day we spent the evening sorting the moveables and now to log them. Don't Gnome where I'm Going was also eager to get out of his plastic prison and spend some time looking around before hitting the road again
We will take this one for a short trip before releasing him in time for the Ides of March.
Another gnome added to the collection ! lol. I'll be getting this one out again soon further south.
TFTC !!
Guess what.....I've found this one. I picked up a large moveable in Echuca a few days ago and when I opened it to grab the log, this little Santa Claus gnome fell out. I have it at home with me, so you'd like to unarchived it I'll set it out in the field again.
Good to see it wasn't actually lost....
Cheers,
