This cache has gone missing multiple times I’m tired f replacing it as much as other cachers are tired of not being able to find it. Time to let it go.

Sorry but this one is missing. Will get to it when Ivan.

No success today!

Sorry today we couldn't find it

I had a very good look with a torch and a good prod and as I have tiny hands, also a good feel. I really think this one has disappeared.

Nice hide

Day five of our journey from Innes Park ( Home) to St Arnaud. Saturday night in Goondiwindi after driving 765 Klm. Sunday Night in Bourke after driving 654K. Monday Night in Dubbo 475Klm and Tuesday night still in Dubbo. Wednesday night we are in Hay after 564Klm.
Apologies fort boiler plate logs. Arrived and searched and searched and nothing where iit ws supposed to be. Walking away thinking DNF annd Mrs youngoldfella saw a roll of paper on the ground about three meters from GZ. You guessed it. The cache log. It is now in a clip seal bag inside a regular eclipse tin right in the middle under that object. Line trimmer should not reach this. TFTC.

A quick and easy find once Ms Muggle and her 3 kids finally vacated the area! Thanks wbfoto!

Caching in and around West Wyalong and surrounds we picked up a few caches and this was one of them.

Cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Another quick find to add to our LGA list.

Thanks again to wbfoto for this geocache.
How good was this one with the stick leaning up against the lamp post waiting for the next cache hunter. Loved it.

We found it

Got swooped by a magpie on the way to the park to find it! Hard time trynna dog it out

??

A nice quick find after sunset. Now for some dinner at the club. TFTC

Parked in a central location to attack the 3 caches in the vicinity. This was the first, found after a nice walk through the main park to this one.
Used a TOTT to extract this one. Log signed and cache replaced as before.

Found during an epic long weekend of quality caching around the Riverina with fitzy_1965. Lots of km's covered including some fun wheeling in the beautiful countryside meant for a thoroughly enjoyable trip

After a DNF at this one ages ago as it was missing, it was an easy find here as it was out on the lawn! Looks like a lawn trimmer had whipped it out from it's hidey hole. Signed log then placed back where it belongs. Good to turn this one into a

Thanks for the hide, wbfoto

18,556. Found during a meander west of Wagga with specimenX.

Day 3 of our trip, and once breakfast was out of the way we continued our wander. This was the next on the list. A quick drive-by find on this one - crossing a DNF off from 2 years ago !

Thanks wbfoto !!

Accurate coordinates and the hint led us to the right spot but we had to use a small tool before we were able to locate the cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks wbfoto for the cache.

Found 8/6/19 Easy find

Nice easy find while letting the kids have a play. TFTC

What a lovely park.
I'll have to bring the geokids.
Thanks for the cache.

Found although a decent stick would have made it easier. Tftc. Greetings from Adelaide

Easy find with Jojo. Cheers!

Thanks

A nice quick find this time. TFTC

No one around and luckily brought my tott my lovely gf gave me.
Thanks for the cache!

Out and about with Roostaman on a nice sunny day,
tiding up a few caches on a large circle around Temora.
Thanks to all the CO's for an enjoyable day out.

Cache located, log signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, wbfoto, for us and others to find.

**# 23803** Found on a fine sunny day for a drive around with The Drovers.
We both had a lot to do around Temora & Wyalong, so we did.
All good safe hides and mostly quick finds. Nice countryside too.
A good spot for a lunch break in the shade.
Thanks for the cache wbfoto,

After a lovely lunch and a long overdue catch up with some very nearby Muggles, thought we had best grab this WW cache before we continue on our journey home to another WW.
Nice easy find in a very quite park on a hot summers day.
Thanks for placing this Cache wbfoto

Good spot to stop with kids. TFTC

Fabulous spot .. no muggles today being very hot. Tyftc

Found with The X-Trailers as we drove through heading to Adelaide.

Found with Earthlight as we head to Adelaide from the Gold Coast
Easy find

Not too many muggles today
Thanks for the lovely arbor of wisteria it sure smelt great.

After a wonderful time in Barcaldine attending the QOGM 2018, it is now time for me to head back to Victoria. I travelled from Barcaldine to Parkes in the company of Team Crackers. Geoturtle37 and Papi4506 joined us for the trip down to Blackall. A vehicle issue caused me and Team Crackers to stay an extra day in Blackall to await the finish of the public holiday on Monday so that the required part could be purchased and fitted before the journey continued.

Quite a few stops were made to quench the thirst for another cache find and I thank all the CO's for their caches and the enjoyment they provided to the caching community.

Nice quick find. TFTC

Found while staying in town visiting family. The kids loved coming here for the park. Dad loved coming here for the cache. What a great asset for the community West Wyalong has here. Fantastic spot for a break. Thanks for showing us this place wbfoto.

Nice quick easy find for us here today. Thanks for the cache and thanks for bringing us here.

Cache has been replaced Recently. And has been found by others since it has been done. It’s there I checked again today. It’s obvious that this cache is a problem for a certain cacher. They seem to be the only ones who can’t find it. Instead of trying to get it archived maybe they should just stay away. Or do what most others do and take a spare container and log sheet and just replace it if they believe it’s not there. This cache only seems to go missing after they have been there?

Hi there Reviewer,

RE: The cache ""

I'm following up on my "Needs Maintenance" log which is now well over 30 days old & there has been no action by the CO. The cache appears to have been abandoned and should be archived.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Dodged school children to get this one. Lovely park thanks for bringing us here.
Log signed and care taken replacing cache.
TFTC
Regards Lizzie & E

Woohoo! I can continue my trip satisfied now. Didn't find the library one but this one's all good Thanks

All good. Easy find with stick. TFTC

Quick find

Found it. First name on new log. TFTC

Container replaced today. My apologies to the people who waited patently for its replacement without whinging.

Sorry that this one is missing again. It was replaced. I believe it’s a whipper snipper that is the cause. Will replace again. When I get back home in a few weeks. Sorry for any inconvenience.

If it's not there - disable it!

Hi there wbfoto.

This is the 1st of 1 caches we didn't find today. [:(!]

We spent quite some time here at around 11:56:00 AM, but we just couldn't locate your cache, so here's a DNF from us.

Regards
Ian and Penny

Hi there wbfoto,

RE: Your cache **"barnado park"**

We are really sorry to report that the cache is missing.
You promised to replace it over 9 months ago. It really needs some owner TLC.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Still missing in action

I'll try to get to this one within the next week or so for some maintenance. Will post hear again once cache has been replaced. Sorry for any inconvenience

As per logs did not bother to look

In West Wyalong for a couple days out this afternoon to pick up a few caches. Don't know how the previous cacher found this one. I had plenty of time and muggle free to search this very thoroughly. I had hands stick and mirrors. No sign of it. Will put a needs maintenance on it. TFTC

With all the dnf's and a suspect log prior to my visit. I have made a thorough search with all the tools of the trade and no sign of it at all. CO needs to take a look.

Thanks

I've never been lucky enough to have this happen to me before
A work trip, driving to and from Dubbo in NSW
For OHS reasons we all know that fatigue kills and so it is vitally important to stop and take a break, have a stretch of the legs and another coffee or fluid intake session [^]
Over the 3 days I made 14 finds and a couple of those were an EC and a Virtual that I was ever so pleased to find [^]
There were 5 DNFs all up and the 1st DNF was at the very 1st cache stop, although as soon as I saw what the cache was I didn't have much of a look at all as I couldn't keep my colleague waiting! She was fantastic company for the whole trip and ever so generously patient when I needed to stretch my legs [:X]

DNF! Hoping for a quick find of an easy cache but once again there were several DNFs
I tried everything here and it seems I'm now not findng a cache in West Wyalong tonight after all
2 DNFs for 2 cache attempts

TFTC wbfoto

No luck 2day

Found GZ quickly but even with little hands getting right underneath the appropriate cache hide we could not find the little blighter. Think it needs to be checked.

No luck for us today despite a thorough search. Next time !

A short 1000km round trip out to West Wyalong and back with fitzy_1965, AngelG27 & specimenX. This was hopefully the last test for my probation to officially head out with the gang on future geomissions as a fully fledged 'caching wench' We signed all logs as Charlie's Angels today. Had many stories and laughs along the way.

Unfortunately a DNF for us here today. Searched as best we could. I got my hand right under but came up with nothing.

Tftc great park for the geokids

No pen

.

there was no pen to write anything and as this was spur of the moment we didnt have one

Cold morning in west way along. Found.

Beautiful day, epic road trip stop with Wombles. Found and signed.

Oh what a lovely day for locating and actually finding some
Certainty breaks the long trip into pleasant sections

Signed and replaced

This was gone last time we were here, easy find today.

TFTC. We are camped at the West Wyalong Showgounds, mainly waiting out the rain. They got 28ml in the last 24 hours. Rather than rushing off North we though we would spend another day. At least it gives camping grounds a chance to dry out. It is a sunny Saturday and having walked the town we head toward Wyalong and Yidda finding caches as we enjoyed the sunshine.
Not too many mugglets about so it turned out to be a quick find.

Heading to Darwin by the long way up the East Coast grabbing caches along the way. TFTC.

After being muggled out of this one last night by some locals on scooters I came back this morning to try again. it was in the first place I looked, I love when that happens. Great park this is! Cache is in good condition

Quick easy find. TFTC

5th day, found quick with skyejam & sevabo TFTC

TFTC

Log and container replaced thanks to everyone who reported that this needed attention

Tftc found it with geowife Jenny. Cache needs maintenance could not sign log.

Out for a day caching with Dougal1950. TB's stopped by for a visit.

On our way to Brisbane from Adelaide.

A quick grab. It has been wet previously so the pages are stuck together. It may need a replacement container as the end is broken. TFTC.

It was there for so long when i found it there was a nest of ants in it! Ether way it was a pretty good spot

It was abut tricky retrieving the cache. The log book really needs replacing but I did manage to sign it. Thanks for showing us this lovely park.

What is it under a tree or lamp post

Where about a is it isn't there no more

Hahah right in front of me

Found by Mary & David at 1513. Staying overnight on our way north. There is a hole in one end of the container, so the log is turning to mush, and there were several slugs in residence. Just able to make our mark. Needs maintenance. Our thanks to wbfoto.

Nice spot. TFTC!

Hard find

Found it

TFTC. Signed and returned.
This cache needs some TLC.
Sorry I could not replace anything.

Long fingers were all that were required. TFTC.

With my fingers no stick required
A quick find for our second of the day
Log book does need replacing though
TFTC. Now across town we go for another park

Well I did not find it and I searched. I think I could almost bet that it is not there. I hope I am wrong. Thanks anyway, it is a really nice little park

Quick find with swimmagurl! Tftc
