This one may need to be checked, looked all over and based on the hint, also looks like fresh mulch in the area
Maintenance done. I have replaced this one a couple times now and as I am not going that way for awhile it is time for it to go.
Camped at Korumburra, and even with light rain, we went out to pick up a few caches.
We had a good look, but no luck here for us today.
Thanks for the hunt anyway, Gonefishen07.

I think we might have converted muggle friends to geo-cachers with this one! After introducing them to the game with another cache, one of our friends had his hands on this one in just a couple of minutes. Made it worthwhile struggling out for a few finds while I was feeling so sick today.
even with some muggles in the picnic shelter our muggle accompanyant found it swiftly

26/09/2014 5.20pm - 6th for the day - with dgfb33 & geogran1937. Play equipment muggles thinned to only 2 & they didn't notice what we got up to.
Flying solo once again on South Gippsland. Cache was not well hidden when I arrived. This has been rectified. Beautiful park... will be coming back. TFTF.
Another late night cache find, thank you to Cindles for driving us and stewart.sophie for accompanying me! TFTC
In town today to do a little work and am now on my way home.
Had a fair look around but there is only so many places it can be and here isn't one of them.
Thanks for the cache Gonefishen07

Found it with my mum (a muggle) and my sister (soon to be a geocaher herself). TFTC
After settling in to our Korumburra accommodation, we had time for a short walk to this nearby cache. Found it easily enough with 4MAAL at 5:15pm.

What a lovely park, especially on a easant afternoon. I resorted to the clue as there were so many muggles and it helped me be more discreet. TFTC
Found this one but had nothing to trade. BRING SOMETHING TO TRADE DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE because there was some pretty cool stuff in it. Remember to bring a pen!
Quick find but had to be patient with return. Was exposed to the elements...hopefully rectified. TN left souvenir coin. TFTC
Being an Adult Male often cacheing by myself i don,t enjoy playgrounds.... BUT.... this hide was well away from the main play area so GREAT! Wish more CO,s would do the same and my cacheing would be more fun... For this reason this hide gets a FAV from me. TFTC picked up TB
A quick and easy find - again the boys were using the detectors in the playground finding coins as cover (and productive cover too! )

Unable to find it l think it has gone missing search around rock under over and around. The last entry was last month l will Keep an eye open for entries If someone can find it.
A quick find today while passing though. Just picked up the new car and decided to run it in.
Collected this cache between the storms. It was slightly damp though everything seemed to be intact.

Find # 2912
Well, its the weekend again and my caching partner in crime SedgwickDave and I decided our regular caching day would be on a Sunday and we were to head out towards Korumburra for lunch, picking up some select caches on the way. Despite winter being with us, it was not too cold and we even saw the sun in patches during the day.
We were both wanting lunch by now, so after a plan of action we decided on a few caches within town before grabbing some lunch. There were a few muggles playing in the nearby playground, engrossed in their own fun. There were not too many options for this one, we initially feared for the cache due to the newly placed bark, but no problems there, cache was found sitting pretty.
Thanks to Gonefishen07 for the cache. TNLN

Caching about today along the country roads on the way to Korumburra trying out my new toy the Nexus7 with Ahomburg. Do enjoy these bigger drives as it fun to see where the cachers lead you. The weather turn out to be rather nice and a good mix of different caches types found. The 3 type rule achieved once more. A good result today with 20 finds and 2 DNFs, I still see plenty more to grab which will be for another trip soon.
Nice park, almost found the cache myself on the first attempt, looks like there has been some recent garden activities by the council. TFTC Gonefishen07

Had to work our way around a few muggles, but as soon as the time was right we went in quickly and found the cache.
Enjoy caching around Korumburra.
Nice park here
Thanks Gonefishen07 for bring me here and cache

Wasn't where it was supposed to be so put it back where the clue says ... No more cache creep!!
Aparrently this cache has some cache creep. When looking at plaque it is somewhere near rose bush on left. As soon as possible I will try to get up that way to place it back beside the big rock.
As per each of the other parks I visited today, its likely the warm weather was keeping the muggles away, because they were all empty even on a Sunday. Quickly found the hint location once at GZ, however there was nothing adjacent to it, so I had a good long look around before some teen-muggles arrived to sit on the swings and make searching more difficult. Luckily they ignored me and I was able to look around a bit more, I'd even entered a 'DNF' into c:geo before taking one last look at a slightly different location and there was the cache well hidden. Getting it out and back was not easy without getting scratched, but I did get the log signed and the cache returned and covered to the spot where I found it. TFTC.
Hot day so not much activity in area. Unfortunately even after hint we were unable to find cache. Will try on way out tomorrow.
Sounds like it should have been a easy find, needs to be done when the muggles are all in bed. A great park.
Took a trip from home (Wonthaggi) to Korumburra today which enabled us to get a few finds that are not often visited.

Dropped off Signal Travel Tag SG8DRZ

Nice easy find. Geo stepdaughter grabbed the GPS and ran off and found this one before I could get out of the ute. Nice place!
A lovely (hot) sunny day with days off for both of us - perfect day for caching. Our day started with a morning rush to get out of the house, then calmed down as the day progressed. At 4:30 we finished our hunt with a stunning 14/19!!! (stunning for me (: (:)
Easy find by - wait for it - ME!! hehe - day1976 finds most of them. TFTC

A great Park particularly for those with children.There was no trackable in here. TFTC
Quick find after using the facilities nearby, almost got caught by a couple of wagging high school muggles. Mad the use of the rotunda to sit out the shower before moving on to Stoney Creek. TFTC
Down here for a couple of months, which is fortunate because it took me a few goes to find a quiet time to get this! Such a popular park for kids, and teens on bikes. TNLN TFTC
Decided it would be a good day for a drive as i would have all the public places to myself, just as long as i could brave the icy wind and driving rain. A surprisingly quick find. TFTC.
Found while on a Roadtrip to Korumburra. I havent been down this way since I was a kid, Today was a great trip down memory lane and a great chance to explore all the hidden treasures just off the road.
It was freezing cold just after sun up this morning while I searched, so no muggles. Thanks for the cache

Today was a fairly long day, with not much numerical output (2 dashpoints and 8 caches) but a great experience nevertheless.
My main objective was an attempt at the FTF on Oberons End at the Prom, but first I scored two dashpoints at Hallam and Drouin, and a nearby cache. Then I completed the necessary 17km walk from Tidal River to get to Oberons End and return, and then I snared another 6 caches on the way home.
This was my last cache for the night, before I headed off back to Melbourne.
It was dark when I got here. The hint was very specific and when I looked at the location there was a vacant depression where the cache should have been.
I looked all around the edges of the object at GZ, and was just about to write it off as most likely muggled, when I saw something about two metres into the garden behind the plaque rock.
I looked and sure enough it was the cache.
It seemed quite complete, and it looked as though it may have been just swept or raked away from its hiding place during a garden clean up.
Anyway, I carefully replaced it where is looked like it should have been and covered it over with leaf litter.
Hope it will now be okay.

The prickly aliens were a pain in the ass but was a fun find and a great place to come to

Found this one on a wet Sunday driving about.
Left a green paper clip.
Cache is now back in the right spot according to the hint.
