After having this cache muggled twice in a short period of time and having moved my horses from these paddocks, I have decided it is time to retire this cache. Thank you to everyone who took the time to search and left lovely comments.

Went to see if the CO has replaced the cache so I could log it, but there's nothing there. Since the last log has been nearly a month ago, I'm suggesting this needs to be archived.
Went to check up on my first cache find and it was missing, maybe muggled because there wasn't any trace of it. And we're broken bottles around the GZ.
No one around just before dusk on a Sunday evening made for a nice easy find. Co-ordinates spot on. I didn't bother going to pat the horses, I'm more of a motorbike guy. TFTC.
Quick and easy. A narrow road with nowhere much to park so went past and did a U turn so kids could get out on the right side without being near the road.
Found this one quite easily. My girls enjoyed feeding the horses some grass they had pulled up.

We parked nearby and tried to remain inconspicous with the nearby horse owners cleaning up.
We made a quick grab of the cache and put it back just as quickly

Found with Crazy! Nat Girl , we had no trouble finding this despite both are grs's telling us in was on the road, plenty of horses and cows here. Thanks for the cache.
Parked in a drive-way a little to the NW of the cache location. Over the road was a white ute and small red car, with a lady tending the fence/gate where the horses were kept. Since she did not pay any attention to me, I took a stroll down the road and found GZ. Trees provided cover from the fence-fixing lady, but not from the curious horses over the road all of whom were staring right at me as I retrieved the cache and sat under the tree to sign the log. I'm not sure what the horses or fence-fixing-lady thought because none of them said a thing.
Cache was intact and everything appeared as usual, however, there was not any sign of the three trackables that have been logged into the Inventory.

I drove past this cache a couple of weeks ago, but there were far too many horse riders in the vicinity. Today I just had to wait for some VicRoads muggles to move on. While I waited, my GPSr settled and it was a quick find. TFTC. SL
Found it, thanks Maggies lens.
Hard to imagine the area having a muggle issue, no blue car today, red and white.

At last! Considering I was with maggieslens when she placed this one, it has taken me ages to actually find it and log it. Dropped TB. TFTC
Missed this on the first pass, had to do a uey and then we were ok. Wondered if the red car was yours, then logged the cache and left. Thanks Maggies_lens.
Find # 883 Found @13:14Hrs
Out on a Cache Raid in the Area this one was a nice easy find after we parked the car right next to GZ.

Nice and close to home. Introduced a young muggle to geocaching on this one. Case and contents in great order. TFTC.
Close to home. Easy find, which was great, because I was introducing a young muggle to the art! TFTC.
I had been saving this for when we did a Lysterfield run, but I just had to hit the big 20! Cache and log are nice and dry, TFTC! TNLN, SL.
Found without any problems on a windy morning, although it was to get worse. Thanks Maggies_lens.
C found this cache pretty quickly, which he was pretty chuffed with. TNLN. TFTC!!
Saw a nice hare on the way to cache, which added to the surprise of the afternoon, great to see different wildlife.
Also, on a side note the herd of Angus in the opposite paddock, must have thought T's car sounded like the same one that brings them some hay, as they all came wondering over quick smart, the lead cow a bit put out when we drove off.

I had to find a cache that was a driveby and a reasonable distance from home so that my car battery could recharge itself after a jumpstart. To top it off when I left home it was raining and it kept raining most of the way there. Lucky for me this one was a nice easy cache but no horsies to say hello to today. I made it all the way there and home without stalling and by the time I got home again my Jazzy Cacher was fixed, YAY. TFTC Maggies Lens.
Quick find-which was appreciated in all this rain!! Didn't have a pen on me so couldn't sign log. Left fluffy chick, took nothing.

A bit worried as there are a few trees here, but then found the one with not too much grass around the base. And got it!

Nice an easy little find, the wind was really cold this day and my fingers are stiff and cold while writing this.

Found while introducing some more devotees including bestie and newbygeokids... TFTC Maggs! Horsey says Hi...
I found this cache today at 12:30pm in company of Pprass as the 2nd of 13 on our hot and humid afternoon of geocaching. As we located the cache, we weren't sure if it was you at the horsie gate so we took some other precautions of looking in the boot instead for a couple of minutes. Thanks from D B-A.
This took me a lot longer than expected.
But duly found and signed for the first one for the new year.
Said good morning to the horses and the cows.

First time geocaching for me, wife and 2 of our 4 children. Took us longer than we expected to find the cache but we had a ball. We are all hooked and lots of fun. Replaced a plastic thong with a toy VW beetle.
Found by Mary & David, in company with pprass and robmc, at 1720. Stopped off here on our way back to pprass HQ. A couple of curious horses came over to watch our antics. Found fairly quickly in a spot that was almost too obvious. It was less so when we left. Our thanks to Maggies_lens.
Found at 5:21:19 PM GAFF5 in the company of maccamob and Robmc. We used to cache a lot around here when the SE Caching Mafia was active. Wasn't expecting the cache to be placed in such an exposed position so simply ignored that spot.
Thanks Maggies_lens
Thanks Maggies_lens
On our way back from the Jack Speak series to Wiliamstown via Monbulk (never said we were going straight home!). We stopped in to say Hi to the horse collection, and grab your cache.
Thanks, Robmc.
Thanks, Robmc.

There was no equine interaction for us today. We suspect they were more interested in dinner at the opposite side of the paddock.

01-11 3rd find of the day at 13:09 and 1349th find in total.
With today being Melbourne Cup day, this one seemed to be a fitting cache to do.
The horses sure were friendly but the bigger one sure is in need of a bit of TLC.
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks Maggies_lens for the caching fun!

Found today, nice n' easy. Then saw a person on one side of the fence racing the horse. Needless to say the horse won.
Found @ 4:15pm . find # 1090
After not being able to have a look for this one last time I came past due to so many people about, I came back past and there was no one to be seen.
Jumped out of the car and a quick search, the log was being signed.
Thanks to Maggies lens for this cache.

Pulled up safely off the road and wandered over to GZ. The cache was exposed, so I covered it up when replacing. There was a car parked in the paddock, it was red not blue, and the owner wasn't anywhere to be seen - out riding perhaps. Thanks for the cache.
Did a fast drive by with Slink 1 and the boys. Could not help wondering if the owner was there watching! Right colour car! TFTC SL
Little bear likes those horses and they seem to like her! There is now a Bear in there!;) TFTH
Yes I can imagine that anyone stopping just there and nosing around the fence line would attract attention from the local farmers.
I had to do some maintenance on a cache of mine not too far from here, so I decided to pick up a couple of smileys on the way home. This was the first of two. Nice quick find.
There was a blue car parked in the nearby field, and a few people near them, so if you saw a red Subaru parked at the cache, that was me. Thanks for the cache.

Out for a few hours today to find some caches after a walk around Lysterfield lake. Parked across the road and gave the horse in the nearby paddock a bit of a pat which he / she seemed to appreciate. I waited for a muggle car to pass by and then made the find.
Thanks to Maggies lens for the cache. Took nothing, left Woody Blueman TB.

After a long awaited geocache sesh. I find myself heading to the roads near Hallam in an attempt to find some caches.(after having such a dreadful cold) We arrived quite suddenly as Damo almost crashed his car and I generally fed the near by horse while waiting for him to load his app.. Very easy find for me and off to the next one.
Hows that for a novel trailrunnig!

NEW CONTAINER AND NEW LOG BOOK, LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL WAS MUGGLED. PLEASE BE MINDFUL THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY A VERY HIGH MUGGLE AREA, ESPECIALLY AFTER SCHOOL HOURS AND ON WEEKENDS. I HAVE MADE THE CONTAINER SMALLER. PLEASE RE-HIDE IT CAREFULLY AND MAKE SURE YOU CAN'T SEE IT FROM THE ROAD OR IF YOU ARE PATTING THE HORSES.
Found it! Too easy saw it from the road person before didn't cover back up properly..
As usual I have Monday night all to myself with not a care in the world. I left straight from work and headed to the south east along the Princes Highway to try and grab a few east and south east of Dandenong. The night was threatening to rain but by 1 am not a drop had been seen. This cache was one of those collected. I spent a few minutes searching the wrong side of the road, but once I moved to the other side the cache was found quickly. Thanks Maggie lens for taking me here.
Found 12:45, this pleasant drive by, also provided the perfect place for a spot of lunch.
TNLN, CSI=2, thanks Maggies_lens.

Over the last 2 years I have undergone 2 back operations and being zombied out on pills of all sorts. It seems there has been a lot of caches that I have found on what some call blank days in their calendar and these logs are those caches.
I aplogise for not logging these earlier and hopefully will start logging on time from now on.
Many thanks to Maggie Lens for the cache.
Regards Mr.Coffee and the "Hi HO Hi Ho it off to logging caches I Go" Coffee Clan.
easy found even though i stumbled around in dark , found at 10:30pm , took TB left pen TFTC
The Chief was being watched very closely by the locals in their warm winter coats. TFTC
I was in the area and after a short detour was parked in front of GZ. No muggle activity about but two cars passed by while I was there. A nice quick and easy driveby with a nice sized cache that was soon found and the log signed. Thanks for the hide.
After two long days working at Lysterfield Park, I was very ready to get home to bed. I finished the day spending an hour or so cleaning the vehicle we have been testing for a week, as it was to be returned the next morning and they probably wouldn't have liked large mud clumps all over it! I headed out of the depot and toward this cache, very slowly, along the wet dirt roads, I didn't want to make the truck dirty again! Pulled up here and noticed someone was tending their horses near the GZ so I busied myself sorting out bags and stuff for a while, then when they had wondered away snuck over to grab the cache staying out of view. While I was signing the log they left so returning the cache was easy. I left two travel bugs (cemetery bat and walkabout tag blue), took one travel bug (Kangaroomeringue). The cache is in good condition. Thanks for the cache Maggies lens.
Continuing on our cache a day quest Mrs Crackers visited here this afternoon. After finding a safe park she said hello to the horses on the way to gz where the cache was a nice easy find as it was slightly exposed
We took the coin and rehid the cache better than we found it
Thanks Maggies_lens for the cache
