Relaxed States Keysborough, Victoria, Australia

This is the fourth version of this cache that has gone missing and is now time to say goodbye. Thanks to everyone that have found this and enjoyed playing the game

Oh darn, this one needs a health check.

No luck here. Expanded the search by a fair radius. With another CO I'd be tempted to say it's gone missing. With Earthbound Control I can't fairly make that claim with certainty. However it might be worth a check, D, especially as Zaydecee DNF'd and they're pretty good at ferreting out well hidden caches.

No luck today. Just lots and lots of ants.

Sadly, no TB in the cache.

While visiting Dingley Village we went out to Parkmore
for some shopping. This cache was nearby so decided
that it would good to fill in another day of our 366 day
Challenge. Lots of tiny ants that decided that I would
make a really good meal. No TB in the cache.

Thanks heaps Earthbound Control

We got lucky, spotted it as we stood in the correct place and looked in the right direction.

The most annoying thing, when you've found it before and you only want to see if the TB is actually there, and and you can't find it.

Found it. Was in the area for a work training course when I came to a path wide enough for a geomobile with an open gate. So I drove in following the orange distance line on the gizmo and went past a playground and toilets and kept driving. Got to a corner in the path when I saw the council truck with the workers and thought I was busted. Turned the mobile around and parked not far from gz. A quick sign and go and no-one none the wiser I thought. I got busted returning the treasure to its hide. When the blokes asked what I was doing, I had to explain. Turns out they were a-okay with it. Interested even. Their superviser had found another treasure some time ago in this park and had chucked it in the bin. But one of the guys had kept the trackable from it. I explained how it all works and he said he might check it all out when he got home. I hope who put out the lost treasure and who lost the trackable reads this to help explain what happened to them. So, this one might be a little safer now.

What a nice place. Thank you for bringing me here Earthbound Chief

A nice quick find during my lunch break today. TFTC.

Working our way through the calender we have now decided to start heading out towards noble Park area

We found this cache on 13/07/2017 and just logging it late

A nice easy cache in a secluded park TFTC

Out and about with mark9375 on a cold but nice sunny winters day this was a very nice area to visit thanks for bringing us here. Spotted a couple of deadly ducks safe and sound in the cahe TFTC

Nice quick find whilst out for a Sunday cache. Tftc

Nice little park - short walk to GZ and a short search located the container.
TFTC

A nice and easy find while on this side of town to pick up a roof rack for my geo vehicle. A couple of muggles around but they weren't interested in what we were doing. TFTC

Geokids said it wasn't a very relaxed State as area infested with ants which made them very jumpy. Quiet and lovely park. Tftc!

Heading to the airport after four days work in Keysborough, I took a slight detour to find the cache of the day. Parked in Kirribilli Avenue and walked in to this interesting park. Searched around a while before the GPSr decided to settle. Still no cache, but expanding the search area slightly helped me spot something suspicious, which turned out to be the cache. Signed the log and replaced the cache. Headed back to the rental car and headed to the airport, where I missed my flight. Not so much due to my cache finding but rather to very heavy traffic along the route.

Fairly quick find after searching the obvious spots

Find #3180

Diverting after work to pick up some stuff from the big Swedish store in Springvale so I was able to check out a few caches in Keysborough on the way through. After a DNF down at the footy club I headed to this one backtracking to some degree around the shopping centre where I had also been earlier. All nice and quiet once I got to the park though and was interested to see this unusual garden hidden away here. I must admit this did take me a while as I convinced myself it was on one spot (and therefore missing when I couldn't find it) but I persevered and spotted it in the end. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache Earthbound Chief.

In the area and noticed this cache we hadn't found. A lovely stroll through this park to GZ. A few possibilities for a hide here. Tried a couple but third one lucky. TFTC

Yay! The geocache went missing. After contacting the owner it was replaced and we were the first to find it

No wonder this hasn't been found for a while.... It was gone.
Container replaced and all set to go.
Please don't be too enthusiastic in the searching and disturbing too much of the native surrounds

Love this garden TFTC

I was making a rare visit to this corner of Melbourne and had just enough time to go chasing a cache before heading north up the toll road. Looking to leave a Trackable behind, I opted for a "Premium Member" cache in the hope that it might be a little safer .

The cache was a straight-forward find with just enough room for a small Trackable. Thanks Earthbound Chief for this cache...you have been keeping it going for a few years now...

Best hidding spot ever but did't take long

Caching in the area today with an ex local made it a little easier getting around and his memories of the surrounding areas made for some interesting talking points as we made our way around gathering some smilies. He remembers this area well as a kid and stories were literally endless, we soon arrived at the gz and made a quick find, thanks Earthbound Chief for the cache and for highlighting this interesting garden.

Another great day out caching with Happy Pants.
I grew up in area and spent lots of time in this park as a kid.
But I think my Geo pal is getting sick of my reminiscing!!!!!
Cheers for the cache

Nice quick find. TFTC

A nice little park which I love the theme of the states. A quick find in a nice location. Log signed and safely back again. Thanks

Suscoe was heading south today for a few days of caching.
6th find for the day.
Well we weren't sure what this relaxing thing was about until we arrived and the penny dropped and we smiled.
The cache was found as expected with good co-ords.
Thanks to the Earthbound Chief for placing this one here.
We studied the objects close by and recognised a few.

Nice easy find coordinates lead me straight to it

Nice and easy in a standard spot. Great little park tftc!

I love getting out and discovering beautiful parks like this one. I love the theme quite unique. Gets a favourite from me for location. Tftf

10.55am A girls out and about day with echidna44 and au.fait . We were blessed with great weather and still early enough not to have to many people around. It was a nice little walk to make the entry. Nice easy find.
Thanks for the cache Earthbound Chief

On a lovely day in a lovely park and with a couple of lovely caching buddies this cache was soon signed and returned in a pleasantly relaxed way TFTC earthbound Chief

Enjoying a relaxed day out caching with xambo4u & au.fait, we made a quick find of this well hidden cache. Thanks Earthbound Chief

today marks our 59th consecutive day caching. We had missed this one as we thought the muggle factor may be hight. It was one of the last close to home that we hadn't found and was decided on for tonight. nice easy find found by almost a man. TFTC 1 more and we're calling our streak

Another interesting park with a difference. Very quiet today, and a quick find. TFTC

Found this one last week, had a few issues with my phone, gps had me out in the ocean for a while. Ended up taking a guess as to the location and it paid off! Tftc SL

Found with Mrs Cheese and Oooie

easy find !! Did not take long at all !!

Beautiful spot with lots of birds!

Found with NSWboy24, tftc

Found with Revolvant, Monday arvo at 7:10pm. 1st Cache found Ye-Ha

Nice

TFTC! Plenty of room for more caches in this park!

Was just about to give up when I spotted a perfect hiding spot and guess what I found inside!! Thanks for the cache!!!

Woo hoo

Woop

Found easy. Grandkids actually found it. Rickhunter and Jayhunter were my companions today. Cache in good order. Replaced well.

Heading in from a narrow laneway with GJMMelb, I was reading the hint thinking it wasn't much help until we rounded the corner and I spotted the sign - well at least we can safely rule out the "troll" option! The GPSs were on target and was on the wrong side of the hide this time, investigating some potential hides when I think it was J' who made the discovery. TFTC

In the area today with Quiet1_au, on the way to the "Big Scary Bird" we had some time to grab some on the way, this being the third. What a pretty area in this park! The GPS led us to a likely looking spot where the well hidden cache was discovered by JMelb. TFTC Earthbound - GJMMelb... We got an sms from our other friends saying they had arrived early so Next stop birdy!!!

Tree

Found it

Thanks for this, our 100th find. Now for a haircut.

Very well hidden and a lot of fun!

Easy find! But didn't have a pen to sign the log book!

Another interesting park I would never have visited but for geocaching.

TFTC

Great little park nice easy find thanks

Nice find with the kids, didn't take anything but left some stuff

This is a really good one for beginners!

Find #111

Picked this one up after grabbing a cache nearby. A nice little park with an easy to find cache. The hint had me intrigued so when I got home I looked up what a sandgroper was and all I can say is, wow!

Thanks for the cache

Father and Son - 15 caches - A game of Basketball

On a morning Katy had her car booked in for a service and an haircut appointment, Campbell and Trent decided to head out grab some caches as well as have a game of basketball somewhere on the way. We started heading in the Direction of Parkmore shopping centre, and a loop back towards Endeavour Hills.

We parked on the road nearest the cache and walked in this nice park, Campbell noticing some of the states names as we got close. We soon arrived at GZ where Campbell chose the right direction and found the cache.

Thanks for the cache Earthbound Chief!!!

Just wandering by on a walk exploring the area. Didn't byo pen to sign the log book. TNLN

Came down to Dandenong south to purchase a camper ready for mega 2014 in Murray Bridge and decided to grab a couple of caches while we had a few hours to spare before heading home

lovely location to take GEO-Pug for a little run before the long drive home, always helps to have a ball to throw towards GZ.... need to find that ball , soon had cache in hand

thanks for the cache

Out for an afternoon searching for trackables. Took trackable puppy and left 2 trackables to replace it.
TFTC

Quick find after working in the area. Great little park and I fortunately had it to myself. Dropped off a TB. Great place for the dog. TFTC

Nice way to use nature for a cache! TFTC

Nice way to use nature for a cache! TFTC

My very first cache! So excited when I found it!

Tftc one of the many on the books for tonight. Out with my geobuddy in this wonderful night.

Brilliant day to do some caching.

encore une de découverte

This was a quick find as i was getting desperate on my way home. TFTC. 14/31 days on caching.

Skipped out between Waterpolo and Hockey for a quick Aug 10 find

Nice walk around the gardens. Geo kids loved tracking across Australia. TFTC

Found at 14:00 - A nice traditonal hide while out caching with muggle Vaz. He walked past it and was looking on the other side of the hide, and had no idea of what was clearly out of place
TFTC

Out caching with the family this afternoon and this was a quick find in a pretty cool park.

Out with the kids since they had a pupil free school day. Constantly raining but they wanted to go caching anyway. Council workers were in the park so thought this would be a DNF on arrival but they ended up being about 60-70m away and out of view once we arrived at GZ. TFTC.

Nice one

Cool hint!! Thanks

Lovely park, once we were at GZ the cache was soon spotted. It was difficult to remove from it's hiding place but we eventually managed to free it. Good hide. SL.
TFTC, Merann.

Great hiding spot, just been to WA and back

Well this one sent me round and round. In the end, best guess found the target. TTTC

Good hiding spot no swap just signed thanks guys

Found it with friends. great hiding spot. TFTC

Drove around this one a bit before realizing there was not actually a car-park or even park access on one of the back streets that looked closer to the cache and a safer spot to park the car (the main road was busy with after-work-traffic).

After a quick walk I spotted the sign related to the clue and was quite confused as to how that related to the rest of the park, what was there or even the cache which was some distance away. But no matter after a short walk I arrived at GZ and took longer getting the cache from it's hiding place than I did searching around for it. Eventually got it out, SL and returned it to where it was hidden.

TFTC.

Good hiding spot not too hard. Made a trade.

The first night time cache run with geo gf on this hot and steamy night. Ants are all over the cache and I had ants all over my hands but thanx for the cache Earthbound,nice little park

Found at 19:45
My phone (with the good GPS) had gone dead so gave a go with my wife's old iPhone. We got to within about 10m and I managed to find after a few minutes. Thanks Earthbound Chief for the cache. The kids and I had fun walking through all the states.

A neat idea for a park. Enjoyed the wander and the idea of all the different states.

Does this mean I can claim another interstate cache???

Very well hid! This was a good find

A quick walk by South Australia to get to the cache in WA, on the way back I came past Tasmania and New South Wales. I didn't see Queensland but I'm sure that's not all that important .
Thanks for the journey Earthbound Chief

Good spot!
