Lost my Marbles Vista, South Australia, Australia
By one747 on 08-May-09. Waypoint GC1R377

As there's been no cache to find or log to sign for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Sorry the Cache has decided to go West somewhere...

given up on this one after a few tries........spot seemed to bring memories of a recently moved cache.......searched and search and after many shhhh's to the kids walked away..........marbles 4 antscrew 0

A little disappointed that we didn't find it. Maybe next time.

Yep, we thought we'd lost our marbles too because we searched for ages, trying to be as quiet as possible as there were stirrings from both houses over the fence. Resorted to phoning a friend who gave us a hint and the cache was found quickly after.
This is such a lovely piece of bushland, so we do have to wonder why hide a cache right along someone's fence when there are plenty of great hiding spots away from houses here?

I thought that I'd lost my marbles here as I wasn't able to find the cache despite a five minute search which didn't equate with the one star difficulty rating. The cache was found when I changed the direction of travel and spied something more about something that I'd seen before and discounted for obvious reasons.

Thanks for the cache one747.

The gate at the end of the little court is locked. So a quick walk turned into a longer walk. But the cache was located right where I thought it should be . Left the billfish and took the squashy nosed gnome thingy.

Good hide

No luck for me today. Neighbour was just the other side of the fence so had to be very quiet and careful. Spent about 10 minutes to no avail. One for the try again basket.

Like the others before me, I thought I had lost my marbles. Well at least the cache. A quick call to a couple of previous finders confirmed our suspicion that the cache had lost it's marbles. So I found some marbles in the car. All tucked up and safe now. Clear skies.

Nice to find one that the previous attempt was a DNF!

We drive past here almost every day of the week, and finally found this cache when out bike riding in the area. Saw a koala in a nearby tree. TFTC

Went for a walk with the kids. My daughter was excited to find the geocache.

got asked lots of questions by little muggles aged about 4&6 about what we were doing.haha. SL TFTC

Found after a walk in the long grass. It is a nice reserve that is hidden away. TFTC

Found it after a short walk TNLNSL TFTC

Took a bit of hiking up and down the slope but found it fairly easily. Took TB for new cache, replaced with Nerf Dart.

mmm locked gate, pouring with rain... what to do... what to do.. well darling.. i guess you need to hop the fence whilst i stay in the warmth of car!
Once i eliminated the obvious hides which ended up having nothing to do with the cache.....it was a pretty quick find.

Found it after finding a locked gate, a new housing development, and a very slippery soursob hill!

TFTC

Took Pen, left doll, and blue stones.

After failing to get to GZ at my first entry point, I found another way in and made it to GZ. Dressed in business attire, I had obviously lost my marbles wading through the grass after the rain... But, there was a cache at the other end and all was worth while... [^]

Cheers one747

found while on a day out with little sammy! 1 of 22 for the day tftc

Good to get this one off the list. I have had this one on the list for a long time. I don't know why I did not find it last time.
Thanks one747 for the cache.

Find number 4 on this cold and wet day, thanks for the cache.

Spotted GZ from a distance as the geokids tackled the creek crossing from all directions. Access from the South would be easier in the winter I am guessing. left something took TB.

Nice little walk in along the creek.
Easy find.
Took clockwise dragon TB
TFTC

Just a note to say I have dropped off some more geocoins...

Nice, simple cache on a warmish day. Took tennis ball, left GMH badge. TFTC.

Found with Matto the muggle.

Great walk with beautiful scenery along the way. Encountered slithering tail, not sure if it was a snake or lizard but I didn't hang around long enough to find out. Took trackable dog and left marble and left garfield. Thankyou for a great cache. Team Jacob

An easy find on a lovely sunday walk.
It is our 150th find to boot.
Retrieved Micro geocoin"The White Sheep Australian Flag " and Aussie Track- a- Bear "Blue Deep Seeker" which we will place shortly.
T.F.T.C.

Just visiting dropped off some geocoins and Travel Bears...

Probably took the hard way to get to this but we always seem to do that. TFTC

Yep you could've guessed... We came from the wrong side of the creek but luckily on a little trickly running through here today so was easily jumped.... Sent Dazzatron in search of the cache and he soon had it in hand.... Thanks for the cache

A nice place for a walk at the end of a hot summer's day.

GPS was playing up, found the cache based on Google Maps marker placement on the Satellite View.

An easy find in a quiet area. Signed the log, no swaps. TFTC.

Hi all who read this.... The Wandering Wing Nuts TB seems to have been taken can those who have taken it please log the find.... Regards

Nice easy find once we worked out how to get to it, Thanks for the cache.

Found on a hot day while caching with Acts2youthgroup. We found a longer way in but we got there only to find there was a rather shorter although not necessarily legal way!

This was cache # 29 of 65 for the day, in the company of Alansee on our five day long weekend Adelaide caching Bonanza. We bush bashed our way to this one only to find an easier way once at GZ, i was sure we had lost our marbles caching on such a hot day. My thanks to one747 for the cache.

Found this cache as part of our Invasion Weekend in Adelaide with my fellow Gangsters.
I nearly lost my marbles trying to find this cache. Too often I was drawn back to the obvious, but alas.

Thanks for the hunt

Found on an Adelaide Invasion in the company of Big Matt and Shell, The Rats and Steeba.

not sure how to approach this one but after jumping a locked gate the cache was found after a short search. TFTC.

We almost lost our marbles getting to this cache with access but did get there in the end. TFTC!

Found while out this way, after meeting up with Skippy and 4fun earlier.
TNLNSL
Thanks

WE had to cross the creek to find this cache , which means terrain should be higher
TNLN
Thanks one747

Found on the Keeping Ahead Tour 2009
First of the night cache finds today with Skippy.
Found the terrain to be more that expected as crossing the creek and climbing up the bank a little more strenuous that walking the path.
Thanks

A quick find after a peaceful walk on an awesome day. It's nice to finally do some relaxing caching. TFTC.

Found it!!! Took a TB. Thanks for the hide.

We arrived at the place but we had a little trouble looking for the cache because of two muggles - one was looking for koalas up in the trees! Took badge/pin, Left shell. We were too late for the travel bug SL TFTC

Nope - your marbles are nicely resting here. Loved the steps kindly cut in the sides of the creek. Took Ireland TB. Left Norfolk Island badge. TFTC

Dropping off ome Travel Bugs from a recent trip to Ireland...

A quick find once at GZ. Although navigating the creek was easier said than done.
Took: Bat & Ball, Left: Dinosaur.

Cheers and happy caching.

Came in from the north at night and the GZ was looking rather dodgy from below until I got up there. Must have been mowed today however cache is all good.

walked up from the Kokoda hunt with GeoRanga.

Great adventure on a damp and slippery day.

GeoRanga had a ball too.

My first try was from the private lane. Garmin said it was not. The gate was locked. 10m to GZ and too far.

Drove upstream and walked down the path. Neat cache in an area I sort of remember.

I found your marbles - all good. No swap. SL. Thanks one747 for organising the cache and hunt.

L Plate driving day.
Eventually found our way in, then quickly found the cache (and your marbles )!
It wouldn't take much to make this place into something really special [8].
TN. Left lizard. SL.
Thanks one747.

Went for a lovely walk through a reserve.
Found this one on the edge of it.
I hope a cacher lives on the other side of that fence.

Fez and the two furry ones joined me on my first find. Took large galaxy marble, left mini tennis ball.

Found late in the afternoon. With little time to work with, I made hard work of what I should have found a bit quicker. This is one of TTG's many nice little pieces of native flora. Thanks one747

Find 608 My Way Without a GPS at 9.30 am
Found after a short hike through the soursobs using the back entrance.

Thanks to one747 for your first hidden cache

My gps won't settle down, so no cache for me today. Thanks for the hunt.

I found your marbles!!!
TNLNSL, Cheers.

Quick find on a rainy day. TFTC.

Quick find after work today.

FTF to Adrian Mc.

On the way home from finding another nearby cache the notification for this one came through on my phone so how could we not stop as it was only a slight detour off the road we were on anyway.
I took the liberty of moving the cache by half metre to get it away from someones back fence as I know I detest scratching around at peoples back fences and if people go after this at night it has less chance of upsetting the neighbours if they don't hear bushes rattling at their back fence. The cache is still hidden in an effective manner from muggles.

Left a TB.

TFTC

Mrs TiedyeSmileys was sleeping [I)], ready for a night shift of work when this came up. As we do all caches together there was much pacing, silently urging her to wake up. An hour later she finally woke up, and off we choofed, only to be thwarted once again by Adrian Mc
TFTC

Oh, picked up TB as well.
