Well Well Well Ballan, Victoria, Australia
By Dig Dug Dag on 10-Jan-16. Waypoint GA8074

On my return from trekking around the sites of Castlemaine I stopped here for a smiley.

Managed to get a quick drink from the nearby well.

The cache was nicely hidden nearby.

I signed the log before I moved on.

Found after the event nearby - we have visited this area a few times now on caching missions. Nobody else about though. TFTC

Have grabbed the TB which has been left in this cache instead of Ancestral Spring.

A quick find in a deserted spot. Making our way back to Melbourne to catch the boat home via some of the back roads. TFTC

This morning, I'm on my way up to a weekend of events by the Murray, but in true Geocaching fashion, have begun by travelling at right angles to the direction of my destination. I think it's going to be a long day...
After filling another Jasmer month by logging the nearby Allan Ostock B, I figured I may as well explore the rest of the reservoir's hides. This was the last stop, just outside the entrance on my way out. I hadn't realised there was a spring pump here until I came looking for the cache.
Not much beats the feeling of finding a nice big cache. Thanks, Dig Dug Dag.

We had previously visited this are in search of a cache so enjoyed the walk and the old well at GZ. After a short hunt we located the cache in an excellent hidey hole. Cache and contents were in excellent condition. Thanks for the cache Dig Dug Dag.

Joint *FTF* with caughtatwork and Lady caughtatwork today. This one was easy to find because Lady caughtatwork found it and I jkust had to log it I love finding an ammo can. So much easier than a mint tin. Thanks very much for this cache here today.
*Recommended* as an ammo can with a 2l sistema. I love these.

Another *FTF* for us here today. GabGab, Lady caughtatwork and I decided to go gnoming after we ran late at Ballarat yesterday and we had to bypass Ballan on the way home. Today we decided to head back to Ballan to clean up the local movable caches and collect a couple of new ones.
This was a very nice area today to get out of the car and head down stream just a little. I have been here for caches in the past, bit no cache was as nice as the one we found today. With the GPS reading 3m at GZ we found another ammo can with a sistema inside. 5 star caching in terms of container. Love to see these sorts of cache and no some mucky little mint tin.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks again for the new cache in the area. It is very much appreciated even if you don't get too many find being listed at Geocaching Australia.
