Upon arriving at the car park I realized where it would be hidden so enjoy a pleasant stroll to GZ while eating a bag of twistees for afternoon tea. Nice views from GZ, thanks for bringing me here. TFTC Bounty Trackers.

Found by Bob at 1455

I did forget my racket - but I don't think it would have been much use in this case anyway! My TomTom got me to a good spot, and I was at GZ after a short walk; a check of the hint was indicated and, soon after, I had the cache in hand.

Thanks again Bounty Trackers - Drouin seems to be really coming along in terms of population and development - I'd always thought of it as a poor cousin to Warragul, but I think it may be bigger now.

Find # 1455

Well, another beautiful summers day, time to head towards Warragul. I have never cached there before, so I put the bike in the car and off i went. There was a small amount of drizzle on the way but it very quickly cleared up to quite a warm day.

Starting to head towards home now, I was lucky enough to find the cache on the first attempt. Lucky me. Smile

Thanks to Bounty Hunters for the cache.

I brought Mum over from Tassie to visit some friends in Drouin South, so I popped out this afternoon for a bit of R&R/solace and into the shops for a few bits and pieces. This is a lovely park, and an interesting spot to place the cache. I needed two hands to reetrieve it! Thanks bounty trackers.

4th find of the day, and 3263rd total find at 14:28

Thanks for a nice easy stroll up the hill. The cache actually looked a lot further away than the GPS said it was. Maybe perspective gets distorted on sloping ground.

Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks Bounty Trackers for the cache

Found it and signed log. I was headed in a different direction than the GPS. Wasn't what I was expecting. TFTC
 
11-Jan-12
Geokid picked the hide site while we were still quite a walk from it. Quick to spotted, but getting hands on it wasn't so easy, so geokid to the rescue again. TFTC.
 
07-Jan-12
What an interesting structure! Made a quick find and were on our way, wondering about the people who are remembered here. TFTC and bringing us to this lovely park. TN L: pathtag

5105. [font=Century Gothic][green]Like a log further down I was worried that I was in the wrong spot, but the open gate fixed that. The find was out to the clue so instead of adjusting the clue to where the hide was hidden I did the other way around Big Grin.

Nice cache! If it wasn't this rainy, we'd go for a smash of speedminton (brought our rackets!). Thanks for the cache!

Found today with Irontoad. Great spot for a cache especially so close to the badminton club! There were some muggles having a picnic and the male of the group had a remote helicopter which he was completely engrossed with. Took a while to locate this and then I realised you could see through there - quick find once that was discovered but it took Irontoad a while to do the acrobatics to retrieve the cache.

Thanks for the cache Bounty Trackers - took nothing, left nothing and signed log.

Found by Mary & David at 1250. bought lunch at the nearby bakery. We thought we'd be looking for tennis courts, then realised ... very interesting. Our thanks to THE BOUNTY TRACKERS once more.
 
20-Oct-11
I had ideas as to what this would be, as I am sure others do. And probably like others I was wrong. Cache found easily thanks to that good hint.

Slight detour on our day of finding caches full of jewels. I know stinga4 would love this one being a gun at this sport. Process of elimination had this one in hand pretty quickly. Thank BTB for putting a cache on this thing.

I had planned a Warragul cache run for the night and was joined by C@H for the trip. Our first stop was in Berwick before following a trail of caches I had on my list for the night which would have us ending up in Warragul. It was a bitterly cold night with the temperature hovering around the 2 and 3 degree mark so we really had the layering of clothes working tonight.
C@H had previously found this one. As we parked a police car pulled up behind us. The flow of questions followed : What are you guys doing here at 3:00 am, you're doing what, do you get paid for it, I dont understand . . . C@H did his worst to explain geocaching, which we had a good laugh about later on. Another memorial "getting pulled over by the cops" experience and another cache found for the night. Thats one big shuttle cock too. Thanks for the hide.
 
12-Aug-11
When we parked up for quasar to grab this one the cops arrived and asked us all the questions. We explained geocaching and totally failed at giving it any value. Understandably the police women could not understand why we would do it. She questioned us a few times asking us if we get paid, what we get for it etc. She commented how she is paid to be out at 3AM on a cold night and could not understand why we where out. Another WTF moment for a muggle.

Found in the company of the Chief, walenators and wileyclan. Things didn't quite go to plan but it was OK in the end! Phew.

This was cache # 9 of 15 finds on a days, while out caching with my new caching partner Crazy! Nat Girl. An unusually place for this sculpture, I enjoyed the bird sculptures on the fence as well. My thanks to THE BOUNTY TRACKERS for the cache.
 
12-Jun-11
An interesting sculpture, we used the hint to make this one easier.
 
12-Jun-11
Found with the Earthbound Team and Wileyclan on a massive caching day. After a nice walk in we search and searched trying not to knee down, after looking trough the gaps we saw the cache lying on the ground and retreaval was made. Thanks The Bounty Trackers. TFTH...SL....TNLN
 
12-Jun-11
Today we had a bit of an assault on the area going with a team comprising of walenators, wileyclan and Earthbound Chief, which ended up being quite long and fruitful!

Oh the amount of comments that this cache brought out from the adults in the search party that simply did not end for the day.

Arriving at ground zero, we helped EB Nano sort out where the cache should be hidden. Nothing doing so we walenators, Earhtbound Chief and I all had a feel around [P] with no joy for us either

After a little while, Earthbound Chief got up close and personal with the structure and guided my hand as it reached around to grabbed the prize

Thanks for the chuckles and the cache The Bounty Trackers, we put it back where it was supposed to be

Cheers Cool
 
12-Jun-11
Things had gone a bit awry as the cache had fallen down. So the Chief had his face on the structure while he directed Wiley clan, who was on his knees to retrieve the cache. There were a few jokes flying around about the shenanigans! TFTC

I ride past this a couple of times a week so had a fair idea where it was without benefit of a gps. Found without difficulty, thanks, C.

#616 Great view up here, especially on a lovely day like today. Glad the cache hadn't been moved from it's intended position (as I feared after my first attempt at retrieval)! Thanks again THE BOUNTY TRACKERS.

Out of nowhere it began raining.
There was nothing for it but a sprint up the hill with my take away coffee in hand.
Located the cache by feel, as you do here
Thanks

We pulled up at the sports oval and came in via the swimming pool which for a change seemed the best way in for us. As we approached gz we were glad that we had left our rackets behind as they would have certainly been inadequate here. With only limited places that we thought the cache might be we had it in hand in a very short time.
Thanks THE BOUNTY TRACKERS for showing us the picturesque, well maintained park and of course for the cache

Awsome, great to see some of the different pois of the town TFTC

Spladem had been asleep since Wilsons Prom. He now had just woken up. When we started the trip 3/4 of a tank of fuel look like it would be enough. The low fuel warning light 20km's ago told us otherwise. We worked out where my preferred fuel stop was (and one that was open) and decided to chuck a few $ in at the local servo to cover us till we got to the fuel station I wanted. We parked up in the station car park and started our short walk up the hill. The grass was wet and our feet where soon too. At GZ a good clue made it easy to find the cache. We enjoyed this location for a cache. On some days it could be tricky to retrieve. TFTC. *FTF*
