It seems that I really do need to do some maintenance on this one so it should be back up and running shortly.
Sorry for the wet/missing hide.

After quite a search for the right plaque we set off for gz. We searched for some time before checking logs. Now we wonder if we searched in vain!
Found while on a family holiday in Hamilton from South Australia
Thank you for this one. I could sign the log but took a photo of the cache which can be sent on CO request. The reason is it is full of water.

On our way to Melbourne so what can we do to break up the trip? I know, Geocaching!
This one was our first find for today, located the cache but was unable to sign the log as the container has been broken and is full of water.

Found at 4:13 PM GAFF5 in the company of Phetlern. Surprised that a cache could be placed in this property - we were going to check outside when it was suddenly spotted.
Can understand why such a facility was built so far away from populated cities in those days.
Thanks jugglingogre

Driving westward in convoy with team Pprass with the ultimate destination for the end of the week being the ‘Big Little Event at Nelson. Great to see these old buildings still being utilised and thanks for the history lesson.

Thanks for bringing us to this little slice of history. GeoD believes these sort of caches are the true representation of what geocaching is truly about.

A clear and simple multicache. Thank you for bringing us to the little known piece of Hamilton history.
good way to stretch the legs after the fun run. a simple multicache that takes you to some amazing scented flowers (BYO pen and antihistamines ). good history TFTC
Staying at the Grampians for the week. Time for some sight seeing & the best way is thru geocaching. We managed to complete the 1st part of this cache but got muggled out at the final co-ords with lots of muggles coming & going.
Didn't spot a sole while snooping around here on a work day. I stuffed up one of the coords and ended up at the other hospital which sounded like a real solution when I plotted it. Epic fail. Luckily I'd taken a photo of the stone and re did the math. Doh. Obvious GZ when I arrived and a quick and relaxing find occurred. No sweat. Well just a bit!
Promise I did not leave a plastic dinosaur! Thanks to jugglingogre and clear skies from TeamAstro.
Found with geokids after a trip to the dentist. Geokid 9 retrieved the cache. Signed and replaced. TFTC

Found by Mary & David at 1620. Just fascinating. Mary is an RN and still doing a few shifts. They rang her to work today and tomorrow, but we already had this little trip planned. Naturally, she was very interested ion the cache notes. What gorgeous roses too. Our thanks once more to jugglingogre.

I did the homework for this when I had caching fever one evening at the beginning of September. A security guard flashing his torch around near GZ put me off going for the find at the time, so today I returned and made a very quick find with even turning on the GPS.
Grabbed the geocoin and continued our journey to the Grampians.
Thanks again Mr Ogre
