Appears to have gone missing again. Archiving cache due to number of times it has gone missing.
The park was completely deserted on this now sunny afternoon. The coords were good and after a quick search the container was soon spotted. Thanks for placing this cache.
Spent some time here with taurus1955 and BentleyTB, but failed to locate the cache.
We were looking everywhere around the geozone but it wasn't in any of our obvious hides. I think the cache is no longer effective as we found on the ground covered in bark. Have replaced where we found it and suitable hidden.
Nice park, Tfth.

The compass took us everywhere but eventually we found the cache. Magnets are not working so magnets need to be replaced.
No. 6 find out of 7 tries for the afternoon jaunt with Wal-Len. Only found a couple of magnets first then found the blighter. Needs maintenance methinks. Great park for afternoon tea.
Suscoe was out and about today heading to Leongatha and Korumburra for a bit of caching.
It was an overcast day which kept the temperature quite pleasant.
We saw some beaut country around here.
Our 3rd find of the day.

Quick find....area deserted. Cache in need of maintenance as container has detached. Temp fixed but soon it will lose its effectiveness. Tftc.

First cache find for our holiday in Victoria. Very cold brrrrrrr. Visiting my grandparents in leongatha. Have been coming to this park since I was a little girl tftc
We were coming home from a singing function at the Mirboo North Brewery and decided to find just one cache on the way. This had us driving around a housing estate until we actually found the park. When we did however, it was an easy find. Handy to have Bek (9) with us for muggle cover.
Finally catching up on logs...
The thing I really love about caching is the places you see.. I would never hvae known this park existed...
Thanks KnowMads for placing this cache :)

Good hide thanks, very quick and easy find 5th and final find for the day!
Didn't find twice in a row now. Possible that it may have been regarded as trash and thrown out??
Found it, third attempt and this time no mugglers so we went for it! Thanks for the cache:)
Drove to Leongatha to cache around the area, and to complete part of the rail trail.
Thanks to all the owners, for the effort that you put into the construction and the hides.
As we enjoyed the day, we hope to return to complete a few more.
Many thanks for placing this cache, know-mads, for us and others to find.

Thanks for the cache - found 16/11/14 Harveyspectre and the running girls 15:45 hrs
After a couple of attempts to get at cache with no Muggles around finally attended to cache and straightened out as good as we could.
Sometimes the easiest finds prove difficult in the rain. That makes 50 finds for me. TFTC -the Kearneys
I was excited to bring my geotoddler to a park I frequented during family trips from our home in Melbourne to our holiday home at Venus Bay - Leongatha has always been a favourite stop and this playground was part of the reason why. It's now become a favourite stop for us from our new home in Traralgon on our way to the new holiday home in Inverloch. The geotoddler had a fantastic time in the playground while his parents hunted down a cache.
This would have been an easy cache had it been where it should be - the gps was incredibly accurate today and kept taking me to one particular side of the gz where the geohubby's keen eye spotted the squashed cache stomped into the ground about half a metre from where it clearly should be. After a struggle to re-inflate the cache, we managed to extract the log with some difficulty and sign it. The cache has been replaced in a likely location. TFTC know-mads.

Nice pleasant park on a hot sunny day. Had to wait for some muggles to leave who were right at GZ. Thanks know-mads for bring me here. SL.
Found on a sunny Wednesday morning while on a bit of a shopping trip to the Gatha. The Guruess did the shopping while I did the caching .. seems good to me. Nice playground in a pleasant part of town. TFTC
With the others 'Targeting' the stores nearby, I shot down here for a look and soon had the stash in hand after the GPSr settled down at 15:30.
TNLSNL, although our Happy New Year to the cache geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks know-mads.
