I decided that this cache has had it's day. It was a bit of a gag to begin with and all the other reasons for it to exist here are gone. The container is in good condition, so it can go back out.
On towards #2 along this road for my after work stroll. This one was located nice and quickly as there was no camo on the cache when I found it. Opened the cache to locate a VERY full log and managed to hijack a spot against someone else's name to sign my find.
Replaced the cache in found location and placed some additional camo over it.
Thanks for the find Noikmeister

The log on this one is chocker block full and requires replacement. Thanks Noikmeister
Found peter and me found it cache .. my mum stay in van coz she cant walk too long way [Time to Find: 4 min]
Parked near the gate of the road and walked down to find the caches along here. Unfortunately, the cache was not hidden at all, and was a bit damp inside. I could easily sign my name on the logbook though. I re-hid it in a better way. Thanks noikmeister!
After a big day in the lab I was in the mood for a bit of fresh air and exercise to nab some caches
Continuing on with my evening stroll down the old road, and this one was next on the radar.
Nice easy find after navigating through the long grass.
Thanks for the hide, noikmeister

TFTC beautiful little spot. Always wondered what this building was and still have no idea lol. TNLNSL
#1265 - 14:10; Out this way again on another errand, so decided to pick up the daily quota away from home to help keep the current streak alive. Picked up a one nearby, then after parking the geomobile headed off on foot for a couple or three more. This turned out to be number three of five for the mini mission. Made it to GZ fairly easily for a quick find and log. TFTC noikmeister
It's time for another walk (and drive) with the GeoDogs. This one was the fourth of five we did today. We've only walked about 500 metres so fa, but there's only 250 or so to the next one!!!. It's still very today. TFTC.
Today was just a day of mainly simple caches around Canberra, hoping for some quick finds. This was a nice quick (instant) find.
My thanks to noikmeister for the cache.

Geocache #645.
Found on Monday, 9th September 2013 at 2:34 PM.
Conditions: sunny.
Current streak #40 days.
Today's finds 28 of 52.
My 544th find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013. With just over a week of the competition remaining, I had some leave owing and decided to take it for a geo-adventure in the Australian Capital Territory and Canberra. What a way to celebrate Canberra's centenary, as well as the Federal election!
On day two of my trip, and after completing the NRL power trail early this morning, I continued the search for more in the afternoon. Once at GZ, it was a quick find and I soon had the CIH and log signed. TFTC noikmeister.

We arrived early for our appointment so went for a little walk to pick up these 3 (we had not realised the road was blocked). We picked up. Three French Hens, We Waived Wagga Wagga and Four Calling Birds. We had quick searches at each location and did not take too long to make the finds, particularly the last one. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

Had to work around the guy shifting dirt @ this one with his backo. Wonder what he thought of us
Finally getting around to doing these couple that are just down the road from GSA. Nice little walk. TFTC.
Another quick find on a bike/scooter walk with the kids. I'm glad I'm doing this one today and not in the height of summer. The warmth in the air today makes me think the snakes won't be too far away. Log signed and dutifully returned. TFTC
Quick find even though we did a cross country trip to it - why would you we choose the hard way when there is a perfectly good car free road nearby, beats me. TFTC noikmeister.
Another lunchtime walk along this stretch to keep the run going. I didn't waive Wagga Wagga, and was so glad I went to the first Oz Mega - it was a real treat. Not sure how long my run of megas will last, but I hope to at least get to 3. Now on 16 for this run, and it is starting to get trying - definitely not something I want to sustain in the longer term. TFTC.
I didn't skip Wagga and enjoyed Australia's first Mega event. Sure I'd searched here before in the darkness once with Hoojar and The Rats but this morning (yes I logged a DNF almost two years ago!) made short work of this one. TFTC!
After leaving the family in DFO, I headed out to grab some caches nearby.
Went for a walk and a quick find and sign. TFTC.

Managed to stuff 'The Great Outdoors' into the little container

2333 Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1200.Just love these nice flat terrain caches in the bush.SL Tnx noikmeister.
We went for a walk down this road to find three caches. We saw rabbits, rabbits and more rabbits! We did find the cache though. TFTC
'2013: Day 8' - We've been down this road caching before, but last time we were here there were lines all over the road. It was a bit sad to see it all repaved. We strolled down and picked up the three caches on this stretch of road. A lot of rabbits running around which was entertaining. Thanks for the cache.
Parked at the end of the closed road and walked out to these three caches. A quoick find in a quiet quiet hidden part of canberra. TFTC.
Find # 4998 on my trek to 5k in the ACT.
More spare time today to get the required few before the big one.
Well you missed a big party at Wagga, where a good time was had by all.
TNLNSL TFTC noikmeister,

A lovely lunchtime walk, this time with a pen. Wary of snakes, though as grass is very long. Fortunately none seen or heard. No travel bug in cache. TFTC.
After a quick walk made my way to gc thank you

Second one on our little trek along here and this one made me realise that it has been two years since the Wagga Mega -wow time flies when you are our caching! At GZ So made the quick find however we left the cache with a little more camo than it had when we arrived.
As we retuned to the road we approached the old road bridge and then spotted the old, old road bridge. Funny how progress leaves it marks! TFTC

We found this one on the same walk as when we found "Three French Hens" and "Four Calling Birds". The ground was very wet underfoot but we managed to find the cache quite quickly. TNLNSL TFTC
I parked at the suggested spot and this was the second of three caches along this old road, just avoided getting my feet wet, and after finding the cache dropped off TB, thanks.
This took me a while to find. Fortunately I had the place to myself and I could search without interruption.
Out on a sunny Sunday caching wander with BatgirlandCo.
A nice easy find in this unloved part of town. I'd never been out here before, certainly interesting.
TFTC!

Found with Little Red Shoes, accompanied by BeveJo. We were at OzMega Wagga - great event, but glad to see there was something to do while we were out of town
We picked up the find this time while out at the nearby dog agility trials.

Thought I'd knock out all of these on a freezing cold morning. This stretch was particularly foggy. Always wondered what was down here and bery disappointed I didn't get to see those awesome line markings.
Slowly catching up with my late logging was here in May with Code 1. Yes it was a long walk from the car but there was a few caches to collect and it was a nice flat walk. Broken up by a few caches to collect. What and why was the old bridge cut? Almost got run over by a strange bike.
JABs.

Picked this one up on the way back along the road. Had a look at the old concrete bridge with a slot cut in it from some type of machine.
Took a couple of moments to find under the leaf litter on the ground.

Went the long way and found the creek first. Leaf cover made it all the more fun.
