One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

After lunch near the beach we had a few minutes to spare to look for this cache before heading off to the Movies at Marion Megaplex. However, after a quick search we had to leave empty handed. Hopefully it was because the sun was shining so brightly today that we had cache blindness. Will have to try again another day.

had no luck here
stuck my hand right into some places and felt around on where i thought the cache would be
after getting a hint from a previous finder i thought it was gonna be there
i think this needs to be checked by the CO

25-Aug-12
Not obvious as wandered past looking innocent on a very busy muggle corner.
 
07-Jul-12
Came at nightime with torches to see if we could find it, found the remains of a yellow pencil as previously commented, muggled perhaps?
 
01-Jul-12
We searched several likely spots on and around the sculpture, but came up with nothing. We did find a short lead pencil, yellow in colour, lying on the ground. Hopefully it wasn't from a muggled cache.
 
19-Jun-12
Lots of spots to hide, many muggles. Will come back at night
 
02-May-12
Great sculpture. TFTC

I am going to forget about the Rain Makers, for a month or so, every time I go there ,it is like Muggle central. so it looks like a night time search. my health is improving and Judi is on the improve after her back surgery. Thank you to every one who has answered my seemingly never ending questions.


Good Caching and health to every one.


Colin.

I had been here before on a multi mission. I recall some problems that time but not this time. An ambo went past with lights and sirens -so heads turned. Perfect timing but we hope their patient will be OK. Clear skies from TeamAstro. BTW it rained after I left here. Cool.
 
Tricky little spot, my mates and I grew up around here and for the last few years I have lived in the ACT where I started caching. It's nice to come back and see some of the changes (and lot's of things stay them same). This area will boom in the next few years being so close to the beach and there are still so many realestate bargains around here - Amazing you only have to look at what has happened interstate to see what will happen to the SA coastline.

Found on a trip down south, whilst A was doing a Tupperware demo just up the road. Had some time to kill, so why not cache.

When this one was the closest cache it was even harder to say no. I know that you wouldnt want us to stop caching, so it's fitting we find one of yours. Get well soon, and look forward to enjoying many more beers with you.

Logging from gz on this lovely sunny spring day.

Great cache location. Used to play on this all the time as a kid. TFTC.
 
01-Sep-10
Found while it was raining. I think that this cache is an easier find in the dark, my torch easily light up the possible hiding spots. It was just a process of elimination.

Thanks thewhitedoggang.

Well had a search with no luck, but the rain Makers did make it rain. But I will not be beaten Smile.
