Aunt Pearl's Missing Jewels (Ruby) Longwarry, Victoria, Australia
By Bounty Trackers on 31-May-11. Waypoint GC2X9ZM

second time this has gone missing so its time to achieve

I'm sorry to say

But aunt pearls jewels are missing

Looked for a while but could not find

Tftc

searched quite thouroughly for this one looked high looked low looked in the bushes and hollows no cache to be found this series vwould have been great had all the components in place

Dropping off a TB.

But no jewels to be found

Found it but none of aunt pearls jewels were there.

We found this cache today at 5:00pm as the 17th of 18 on our 4x4-2 Bunyip Tour in company of Pprass.One of the quickest finds for the day here. About 4 years since we completed the other Longwarry cache. Thanks from D & HA B-A.

Found at 5:00 PM GAFF1 in the company Rabbitto.
We spotted this cache from a distance and made a quick find which was convenient as we had a dinner appointment with the rest of the crew that conquered the 4x4-2 caches earlier in the day.
Thanks Bounty Trackers..

After a previous dnf this was a nice easy find - in fact too easy. Left it with more appropriate camo.

No Ruby's are left in the cache but a nice quick find

Lots of muggles around, but we were quiet as mice...

Third for the day

Quick find today. All good with cache.

Quick find with crigithis. The cache wasen't properly covered up and we could see it when we arrived. Now it's properly covered. TFTC Bounty Trackers.

Finally back to something important - caching - tnln. tftc

Nice easy find with wife and johnny220083 ! Tftc

Found this cache at night.

Had to wait for muggles to walk past before we could safely get this one.

Put some more jewel in

Geo Kid 3 gets this one by herself to stop the fighting over who turn it is to find a cache.TFTC

Found while out with Pau Pau & Co. TFTC

good hiding spot but may need refilling

Found it. Another in an interesting set of caches although a fairly easy one to find. SL TFTC.

good hiding spot TFTC but there was only one left and my family and me found it

Woohoo!!! Found it.

We located this one very quickly - another down in the Aunt Pearl series. To help out Ladybug left one of her very expensive and unique K.I. bug necklaces. Hope Aunt Pearl can make use of these. Thanks Bounty Trackers.

We are really enjoying completing the Aunt Pearl series even though we are completing things backwards. The story behind the series is a good one.
A quick find this time.
Only one ruby there so left it for others.
TNLN. TFTC

Would think this one could be a bit harder during school times but that just adds another aspect to the challenge. Luckily for us it's school hol's so the find was a relatively quick one. Only 1 ruby left in the cache now. Thanks Bounty Trackers, we're enjoying Aunt Pearl's shenanigans.

TFTC Only one Ruby left. Nice easy find. Great series

Picked up a Ruby, quick find. TFTC.

A quick pickup.

Quick find had to wait out a couple of school muggles but the bell had them soon running off to class. Log signed and ruby retreived TFTC

Found it & took a Ruby.TFTC

Another wet gippsland afternoon. Took one stone left a small gold bear. TFTC.

We tried for this one last year and although we looked in the obvious spot there was nothing around, this time around we visited, recognized the spot, no one was around so we went for it. Found easily and logged, thanks Bounty Trackers for the cache.

Found at 1620 school holidays so the coast was clear. TNLN
Thanks for the cache.

quick find on the way home great series

Trying to catch up on finds from months ago, apologies for the belated log.

Out on a caching outing with Coley_Babee.
Found in the obvious loaction.

Thanks Bounty Trackers for this cache.

Today was the second day of our excursion out of Tasmania touring from Melbourne to Canberra and return via Gippsland. We visited a number of towns today between Melbourne and Sale and were lucky enough to find some caches along the way. Despite being overcast at times and some very infrequent drizzle, we have had an excellent day. As we approached GZ we thought we may have muggle problems as workmen were repairing guttering on the community hall. However, the cache was sufficiently far away and out of line of sight for the muggles not to be a problem. A quick find. After we took one, two rubies remain. TFTC Bounty Trackers

It looks like the hall is getting a facelift. Hopefully it will still be open to host the next dance.
Thanks for the cache.

Janes 2nd find for the day!! TFTC! TNSL!

5309.[font=Century Gothic][green]Back down this way to send off a lifelong family friend. I guess the trips will be less frequent now. Still have neices in the area so will get this way again. Found quickly as I showed FFP around the old houses Marg lived in.

Rated: for Overall Experience

Today we were meeting friends kinda out this way to see some glow worms.. I made an earlyer start and got a bunch of caches. Fun was had and km were driven.. Its great to get out of town even for just an afternoon.. I should do it more often.. Thanks for bringing me out here Bounty Trackers.. find #2248

Found by Bob at 1355

This was my 5th in the series and, to date, the hides had a pretty consistent them - so I was a little surprised at where the GPSr was pointing when I got out of the car for this one (what could Aunt Pearl have been up to?)

Anyway, the cache was another nice, quick find and Auntie's necklace was really starting to shape up.

TNLN

Thanks once more Bounty Trackers

What was Aunt Pearl doing here! Great hiding spot thank you!

Tftc I'm starting to think aunt pearl wasn't a pure woman

Find # 1458

Well, another beautiful summers day, time to head towards Warragul> 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.

My third in the series was in a similar to my first. A nice easy find. Geez, that Aunt Pearl really gets around doesnt she?

Thanks to Bounty Hunters for the cache. Took Ruby, left nothing.

Found @1610 #1147
The 4th Aunt Pearl cache found but sadly no ruby to collect today. They were all gone. Hopefully I can still complete this fun series without it? TFTC Bounty Trackers.

TFTC; Nice and quick; although missing jewel. Found by TeamMorno (Hazey1 + Saulman1010)

Team Morno (Mornington), Consisting today of Hazey1 and myself out and about on a kid free weekend, today a trip to Yarragon's progressive garage sale and grab a few caches on the way. Heading back West now on our way home, nighttime caching!
Another nice easy find but alas no jewls in this one either.
TFTC

11th find of the day, and 3247th total find at 12:47

We (sort of) retraced Aunties journey but unfortunately some of her baubles must have been found by other seekers.

There were no rubies to be found here.

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

The Empire made this find last week now it was my turn - tftc Bounty Trackers

Found by Mary & David at 1100, just where we looked last time when it was MIA. Swapped pathtags. No rubies left either. Our thanks again to Bounty Trackers for replacing it. .

Found by The Empire @ 4:10pm
Find number 11 of 16 in the cold, windy 'summer' weather. Ahhhhh, I get it now, nice idea! Thanks for the cache to THE BOUNTY TRACKERS.
Note to the cache owner - I took the last ruby.
- M

We had bypassed this one yesterday, heading along a different track to Warragul, so had to shoot back today to collect the last jewel. Heading back to Warragul now to the reward cache.

Checked on this today all ok

Quick find, took the last Ruby gem to make our necklace.

Quick find on series run with Cracka1. Took last Ruby.

01-01 6th find of the day at 14:47 and 1363rd find in total.
A very hot day to be hinting jewels but a nice spot.
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks Bounty Trackers for the caching fun!

First easy find for the day!

Had to time our searching with the cars. We made an awful lot of "phone calls" on the GPS, as it was quite busy

Found another one Aunt Pearl. Great series.

Another jewel found to add to my collection to return to Aunt Pearl.

Arrived at GZ which was quiet, but not the road running by.

I had to avoid obtaining the cache, whilst car after car drove past.

I knew exactly where it was too, which was frustrating.

got it in the end, and added the ruby to my jewels.

TFTC

Mary & David ran out of luck here. Our GZ must have been the same as Alansee's, and we had the same result. A good spot for a cache except that it was empty. Our thanks anyway to THE BOUNTY TRACKERS.

DNF. There were school kids out in the fields when I arrived but they soon went inside. A thorough search revealed only a very likely hiding spot with potential covering items but no cache.

Found 16:35, after a brief search.

TNLN, CSI=1, thanks to THE BOUNTY TRACKERS.

2 down!

Great run of caches this...

On my way home with Xambo4U and Roulette after spending the weekend at Rawson with a group of square dance friends.
Nice quick find so we could move on quickly.
TFTC

6.20 On the way back from a great weekend with a group of squares in Rawson. Checking out a a few caches on the way with Toycar and Roulette. Nice easy find. Another jewel to the collection
Thanks for the cache.

A bit trickier this time - she must of been really under the weather by now.

Early morning pick-up.

Another in the series ticked off, and another jewel added to the collection.
Thanks again Bounty Hunters

found with Kmace. a nice hide considering how exposed it is. Then again the traffic in this town is not much to worry about. Found a facinater in black and purple with feather. I tried it on but kmace woundnt take a pic. you all miss out. Maybe shes waiting for me to but on my best evening gown.

Found with Irontoad today after a little look around. Unfortunately the step that caused Aunt Pearl to lose her jewels nearly caused kmace to require first aid again - mind you it does help if you are not fiddling with your gps and trying to walk at the same time!

TFTC The Bounty Trackers. We will be back to finish this series

Another enjoyable find in the series on a day where the weather was being very kind to us. Can't say the same for Nautilus' tummy. She battled on and we had this one quickly. Grabbed our jewel and headed around to one of my hides for her to find. Thanks TBT for placing a hide here.

Was quite ill with a hangover when getting this cache, didnt know what was worse the hangover or thinking caching a good idea whilst hung over. Hangover's sure do remind me why not to drink. eewwwwwww.. self inflicted agony.. special thanks to JM for putting up with a sick me for most the morning, making numerous quick toilet stops amongst the cache stops.. lol..

first one in this set. look forward to completing it. Not a lot of rubys left though.

Still trying to see how long we can go finding a cache a day we headed out this way again, over 40k to find our closest cache without going into the city and trying to find urban caches on a weekend.
We pulled up in the car park and were happy we were the only ones, unlike when Aunt Pearl was here. We think the shandy's must have been having an effect on her as she was a long way off track to get to the FJ when she lost her pearls here. They were a nice easy find but we had no pen so back to the car to sign the log.
This is where it went pear shaped as a car pulled up in the side street looking straight at GZ so we could not put it back. We waited 20 minutes but he still just sat in the car on his phone. We decided to try our luck with the nearby Divided Waters so we took Aunt Pearls jewels with us. After a find there we returned to find an elderly couple in the car park having a cuppa. The man in the car finally left and about 10 minutes later the older couple packed up and left. We wasted no time in replacing the cache and heading back home for lunch.
Thanks once more THE BOUNTY TRACKERS.

Found it!

Easy find with george007au

Easy find with cgeorge9004 but I didn't have a pen

Nice quick find with Gonefishen07 looking on. SL TFTC

Found this Ruby jewel..
Nice hide
TFTC

No 1 of this series, it was a nice easy find with geo child, had to tell geo child off who was wanting to take all the jewels. I had to explain that we only needed one and to leave them for other people to get. So we took one and geo child left the rest for someone else to get. TFTC

Headed out for a night cache run along the Princes Hwy to find some of the new caches along the route. Found this one while on the way back home. Second of the jewel finds for the night. A nice straight forward driveby with no muggles about at this time of night. TFTC.

Caching day
Found it
TFTC

Ha Ha, my little brother wouldn't touch the cache, even though he was insisting this one was his find...there was a frog sitting on top!

This was cache # 12 of 15 finds on a days, while out caching with my new caching partner Crazy! Nat Girl. Rubies have always been my favorite gem. My thanks to THE BOUNTY TRACKERS for the cache.

My string of Gems was getting rather full, if only they were real!

Found with the Earthbound Team and Wileyclan on a massive caching day. As we pulled up there was a race to find this one by Wileyclan and EB Nano, with the EB finding it first but with a frog as a cache guardian. Thanks The Bounty Trackers. TFTH...SL....TNLN

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!

As we pulled up with this one, Earthbound Nano (who shall hereforth be called EB Nano) and I had some funa and were racing each other for the cache. He very quickly had spotted it but wasn't touching it as there was a frog sitting on it. I myself dislike frogs so gave it a nudge with a stick so it would move along. Grabbing the jewel to give back to Aunt Pearl (who we met later in the day and I must say, didn't look like I expected) I replaced the cache as EB Nano ran around telling the world about the frog. I love the enthusiam of kids, it makes caching all the more fun

Thanks for another stop in the series The Bounty Trackers


Cheers

Nice spot. TFTC

Gps went nuts but found it. No frog guard this time.

EB Nano just had to find a cache before he busted! But there was a frog on it! A REAL ONE! TFTC
