Another nice day for a cache or two with Purrfect Di and Jack.
Had another good look around, checked over many logs.
Seems this is most likely missing, so donated a nice new mint tin as it's an older cache site. Keep it going!
It is a nice park. DustyandDizz

Checked in the box, on the box, around the box, under the box, but no luck. Lovely park tho!
No sign of this one today.
We looked in and on every box we could find. Coords don't take us anywhere useful, out in open.
Bowlers nearby must have really wondered...
Thanks for the challenge DustyandDizz ,
will place on the watch list and return asap when it's been found or maintained!

Erin1405 and I did a round trip from Alice Springs down South along the coast and ended up in Sydney. We had a marvellous time on this amazing continent viewing a lot of new and beautiful impressions. Of course we searced and found some caches just like that one. Thanks a lot for hiding and many greetings from Germany.
I found this cache together with B.F.Pierce during our wonderful vacation in Australia. We drove four weeks with a camper van through this amazing country from Alice Springs to Sydney. We enjoyed the great people, wildlife and countryside so much. Thank you for the great cache! Best regards from Germany!
GPS had us in an open area so we searched around a fair bit. Eventually we had exhausted most options and like always found in the last place we looked. Log signed and replaced as found. tftc
Nice straight forward find, although not on top, rather inside instead ! So it is now true to the clue. Thanks DustyandDizz.
#122 As others have said, coords are a bit off, and it's hidden IN a box, not on it.
Found whilst walking Lavender Federation track to Murray Bridge. TFTC
Found on a lovely day exploring Mintaro and Clare. Thanks for bringing us here and TFTC.
Stopped for lunch here today and was very pleased to see there was a cache to be found within metres of the picnic table! Thanks for the cache postiegirl06 and TheKellyGang!
As others said, coords are a bit off but after reading other comments it was a quick find. TFTC.
We are on a 10 day holiday from Bendigo to Whyalla to swim with the giant cuttlefish. We are now on our way home and staying at Brinkworth for a couple of nights. Today we discovered we had no more caches in the GPSr and no cable to load them so we have been forced to join the 21st century and cache by phone. We had been advised to visit Mintaro and checkout the old buildings but first we checked out the convenient ones. TFTC
Found it, although not near co-ordinates. Magnet no longer used and nearer to facilities.
Out for a country drive in the mid north taking muggle parents out for the day, we picked up a few caches along the way including this one, nice to finally cross this one off as a previous nemisis cache, coords are out and cache hide no longer matches clue albeit close

This place has a lot spots, finally found the right one. The coordinates are not really precise. Tftc
We replaced the container with one we had in our bag & also put a log in it. Ufortunately we could see it "on" so we popped it "in" until the cache owner can visit & sort it out. TFTC
Excited to do a geocache but it's been taken we didn't have anything in the car so couldn't replace the geocache.
Found Gz and only a magnet left. I think this has been stolen. After having coffee at Reilly's we went back to put a new cache container at GZ but some lovely muggle couple were having a picnic. Oh well. Perhaps someone else could do this,
No luck today and no surprise given all the previous dnfs. Very wet and muddy here but had a look around anyway with no luck
Out with the family for a day visiting some wineries and s grabbing a few caches close by. Stopped here to give the kids a rest and looked everywhere and came up empty handed
After all the other DNFs I wasn't surprised that I didn't find it...
From what I can see I think it has been muggled . Great park though!

Had a look but no luck. GZ had me in the open on a path near a table. Looked at he nearby toilet block and gardens but no joy.
Found about 15m southish of coords as previously suggested. Was on the ground, quite in the open. Had no idea where to hide so just did our best to rehide in same area. Added a pencil and extra swaps. No sign of plastic bag mentioned by last finder. Good luck!
Quickly found. Put some new paper and the old into new plastic bag and replaced. TFTC
Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi. Driving past and needed a break so to stretch the legs stopped and found a cache. Signed log and replaced. Gratias pro cache
Not the best cache we've found – there were earwigs in the logbook! Nice park though.
A quick find on our way from Mannum to Clare on our three week caching holiday on the big island. No cache container, only found the logbook in it's snaplock bag. TFTC
Found It!
This one took me quite a bit longer to spot than it ever should have. The coords are a bit out as well. Try 15 meters to the south. Nice park though!

I was looking at the septic tank for awhile convinced it was there. Finally found it.
We found it hard to find it took us half an hour the paper is full we need another paper to write our name good fun
Lovely lunch and glass of wine at Reillys then grabbed this easy cache before heading back to Adelaide. TFTC
Third time lucky! A cool day but not many about, although looks to be a gathering at the bowls club......found quickly with the help of the clue DNF previous logs. TFTC
it took awhile till I found the box. What a huge tree just near the park. TFTC
Another stop at an old haunt of my Bestie's.
Spent awhile with geokids on the equipment and finding the new location of the cache. Afraid we would not have found it if not for the hint. Don't think it is set how it is intentioned?
Nice hide none-the-less.
Thanks
