Yes, well I did plan on repairing the cache, but when I got there it had been muggled anyway, so I give up! Now archived.

1.40PM

Parked at the cricket ground, watched the locals playing cricket for a bit, before heading away from ground for a search. Was not aware it had been disabled, but found it without any problems, log was slightly damp, but I have written on worse Smile

Thanks to squalid for the cache.

Hey found it unfortunately it's waterlogged and the log was wet Sad
 
05-Feb-11
Well, we did get a huge amount of rain over the last couple of days, but I think I'm going to have to find a more water-proof container for this hide. Disabled until I can get to it.

No one at this park today, I think they were all at the Fort I saw a Cache! (GC2CZKQ) park instead!

Found quickly.

Thanks squalid for this cache.

12th find of 30 for the day, caching on my own. particularly challenging as there was kids riding bikes and cricket practice in the nearby nets. Had to resort to the "Fake Phone Call" technique and all was good. TFTC.

Still very wet & slimy, added plastic bag and sheet of paper for future logs, otherwise enjoyed this one. TFTC Smile
 
18-Dec-10
Found it with the 5 year old geokid who was with me. He'd never done a cache before, and was fascinated by the way the GPS worked and seemed to know where we were. I prefer to come to this little park over the much bigger one nearby because this one is always more peaceful and quiet. The log book was absolutely sopping wet and slimy--couldn't sign it.
 
17-Dec-10
The log books is sopping wet and really slimy and gross. It rather needs a new one. =)
 
20-Nov-10
I needed to resort to the clue here, otherwise I would have been stamping all over the garden beds. Happily it was quick find and there was not really anyone around.

Thanks for bringing me here,

Found it @ approx. 19:20



A nice easy find, on a great melbourne afternoon.

A quick run around the area after work.



Log is damp.

Today was the return date and I was'nt going to let this pass.



With slightly better co-ords I was soon scouring around and recognised what looked like a great little hide.



Not sure how I missed it last time.



Don't think I was looking hard enough. icon_smile_blush.gif



Philipp and I signed the log and were soon on our way.

On my way to the CITO event I called passed here with no luck.

Either its dissapeared in the replacement of the tan bark or a very good hide.

Thanks anyway!!

13-Sep-10
No luck Sad. GPS took us to the middle of the grass, just like in the satellite photo. Nowhere to hide there and so, we tried some spots nearby but no luck. Wondered if it is in the garden beds there and hopefully not covered by the fresh mulch. Will have to come back and try again.
 
07-Sep-10
/7 @ 0500, for an early morning caching run after work Smile
Will have to come back to this one, as gps was going nowhere sensible. Plus the odd muggle around made things interesting!
Seegs.

14-Aug-10
Found @ 2:20AM and I see by the logbook some one else has been out tonight ? Smile Tried to find a new puzzle maybe ? A nice simple hide and easy late at night, not like the other times I have driven past and not even bothered to stop. TFTC
 
14-Aug-10
first of 1 this morning 12.20am, (or 16th of 15 for last night depending on how you want to look at it..either way.. it's time to go home and recharge my geo batteries for another caching assault tomorrow.. which will include the milestone of my 400th cache... and perhaps my first hide..

Quick easy find. TFTC SL
 
27-Jul-10
Went and checked the cache today and it's still there........
 
25-Jul-10
Maybe not today. Found the place where the clue's discription fitted but it's not there.
 
24-Jul-10
Found the "near" object referred to in the hint, but no cache.

#48 @15.09 - I had a nice relaxing sit down eating a late lunch waiting for a muggle and his dawgh to wonder off. SL TFTC
 
09-Jul-10
Last one of the morning - nice and fast as I was running out of time before the next commitment. TFTC.

Found on an after dark caching sweep. Sounded like someone was celebrating something at the club rooms at the footy ground! I just signed the log..

22-Jun-10
I have now replaced the logbook and it's ready to go again....
 
13-Jun-10
Found today at 2.53pm with the kids Wild, Uno, Reverse and Skip. Hadn't read earlier logs and printed this one up a few weeks ago so didn't know it was disabled. Left a few pieces of paper from a notebook and placed in a dry bag that I had with me. thanks for this one Squalid. Kids enjoyed the park.
 
12-Jun-10
Alas - due to the plastic bag not being sealed properly - this cache will need a new log. Could you also please add my mark if you can as well? Cheers.
 
12-Jun-10
Will get to this as soon as I can..disabled in meantime
 
12-Jun-10
Found, but I was unable to sign the log as the plastic bag wasn't resealed by a previous cacher and the paper log is like a recently used tea bag! This cache will need some serious TLC ASAP.
 
29-May-10
The log sheet at this cache needs to be replaced as it is full and looking a bit second hand.
 
29-May-10
Found @ 4.35pm, #184. A quick find with the kids and then a play in the park.

Cache 3 for the day. A sausage roll gave us the energy to make a quick find. Found with Jackam crew.
 
16-May-10
a few muggles and game in progress, but a nice and easy find. thanks
 
13-May-10
I was out and about this evening and this was #2 of 6 night caches that the dog and I found. Although people were leaving the nearby sporting clubrooms it proved to be an easy find by torchlight.

Thanks Squalid.
 
08-May-10
Found pretty quickly whilst a footy game was going on. Found by spike.
 
24-Apr-10
Found while on a caching day out - tftc tnln
 
24-Apr-10
Tried yesterday without the hint - no luck. Back again today and worried that the football crowd would notice me but they were too engrossed in the game. Tried to follow the hint but it didn't match reality, so I used the "What would a geocacher do?" approach with success. Good spot - TFTC. Note: it needs a new log, the current one is full. Cheers.

18-Apr-10
The nearby football match seemed a world away as I sat and ate lunch in this nice little spot.

Very simple and effective camo.

Thanks for the great cache, Squalid.
 
17-Apr-10
Great, now I'll have to go and see if I can find my own cache!
 
17-Apr-10
Went here with a friend while I was at his place. There was a game on and a lot of muggles around, but still managed to find it after a look. Signed the log and Hid it back. TFTC Squalid!!!

Today was a completely selfish "my time" day.
Tank full of fuel, nowhere to be till 5pm and NO KIDS.
(Curse school holidays!)
Number 5 of an even dozen for the day.
Nice quick cache - TFTC
 
05-Apr-10
Found at 16:46 on a 40km bike ride with my mate Daniel. Had us stumped for a while, but got there in the end. My GPSr had me convinced that it was one particular bush, though Daniel thought it may have been elsewhere. The GPSr turned out to be right in the end even if it did seem unlikely at first. It was only after I got down on my knees that I saw something that looked like a cache and there it was. Thanks Squalid.
 
20-Mar-10
Still haven't checked it, but from all accounts it's there
 
17-Mar-10
Disabled until I can check it when there's no-one else around
 
17-Mar-10
Looks like it has gone. lots of empty bottles but no cache
 
17-Mar-10
Lots of people around today but searched anyway
and good news it was there, dont know if the close onlookers will have a look themselves but it is there.
TFTC SL
 
01-Mar-10
Can someone please let us know if it is still there?
 
27-Feb-10
We had no luck with this one, even though the GPS seemed to be spot on today, We resorted to the clue and found part thereof but as for the cache it alluded us.
 
24-Jan-10
stumbled again checked up on the cache for us and it's still there and OK - many thanks stumbled again!
 
17-Jan-10
Suspending this until I can check it out this week
 
16-Jan-10
Couldn't find as well, not sure if too hard to get to due to recent tree fall?

Quick find, no one around at all, although i expect this park would be very busy at times. TFTC

A nice easy hide, even though a muggle walking her dog gave us a few looks. TFTH...SL...TNLN

I had a few minutes to kill before I was due at the cache owner's house for secret pathtag business, so I decided to check out one of their caches on the way. A sneaky little hide, but the clue helped. TFTC.
 
27-Dec-09
2682. We had come past this one earlier but muggles on the swings were a dampener on that attempt. We found ourselves nearby again and this time no problem. A quick find and rehide and away we were.

TFTC and the chief.

Needed a spot to eat our subway so thought why not do a cache also! TFTC

Bike rider with Mum watching, almost on top of GZ. Drat. Ah well, go play on the playground EB Nano and we'll sit on the seat & watch you. It's the first time in his existence he's knocked an offer like that back! "I WANT TREASURE!" So we remain on the seat and give him the clue. Small children scratching around in gardens doesn't attract as much attention as it does to adults. He found some interesting seed pods first, then jackpot! Luckily the eureka moment wasn't accompanied by a shriek of "I found it" at full banshee volume. SL. Then a pair of teens showed up so Nano had to put it back too! We did check his handiwork. Not bad for 5, makes a geoparent proud! TFTC

A tricky cache for the second of the day. I was wandering around for a while before discovering the cunningly hidden cache in a nice logical spot.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks Squalid for this cache experience today. It was quite warm out today and I was very much looking forward to the event later tonight not too far away.
*Overall Experience: 3*

good hide. i think the garden bed had seen better days. probably from all the geocacher activity, i was thown off the scent by the 2nd stone but after a moment to gather my thoughts moved in for my third of the day....
 
30-Aug-09
First of the day today found at 1210, nice little park and the geodaught enjoyed the swings while we found the cache. Good hide. Thanks Squalid.
 
16-Aug-09
Parked in the car park very close to GZ and after a quick stroll throught the park I managaed to find the cache under moonlight. A tricky cache to find under moonlight but evetually had the cache in hand. TFTC. TNLNSL.

Using a little discretion and after a short break it was in for an easy find, log in and return cache to original position without being detected. It's never easy when junior footy training is on!

Found at 1300. Arrived at GZ to find a couple of kids playing nearby, and one guy waiting across the road for what turned out to be a taxi. Hung around on the nearby seats until the taxi picked up the guy, and a few spots of rain later to drive the kids away, the cache was mine. Nice park.

Thanks.
