[u]MAINTENAINCE REQUIRED?[/u]
[blue]I notice from one or more recent log entries that this cache [u]appears[/u] to be in need of owner intervention. Therefore, I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Prompt attention by cache owners to any log that indicates anything could be amiss is greatly appreciated by all seekers. The guideline advises; "if you can't fix it straight away then "Disable" it till you can."
Please respond to this situation by 30th November to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
And don't forget, once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log see here; http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404 and an "Enable Listing" log see here; https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 to get your cache up and running again.[/blue]

good cache.. added abother piece of paper so able to mark our name.. found with sarahdis n wheelzy
Eek log book needs maintenance good little hide though, I was looking in the wrong place with Karina
An easy find as intended and all was quiet on a cool Saturday. The log has definitely seen much better days. Thanks Nautilus7497.
Found this simple cache but unfortunately I'm unable to sign the log as it's completely waterlogged. The containers don't appear to seal properly.
Found it! Was pretty easy, just looks suss. Searching in the dark again. Pretended to pray as people went by.

Log is still looking a little bedraggled but good spot for practicing your stealth moves! TFTC
Something was going on in the church this morning but I don't think we were spotted. Two caches for the price of one here. Only one smiley though.
Woo hoo our first night time cache dropped in before rock and roll lessons at the RSL. There were actually two caches at this location found both . Both of the logs are wet and one container was full to the brim with water TFTC
Quick find with the kids!! The paper is very wet and needs replacement. We tried to sign. Thanks
Coordinates are a bit off but found it. Log needs replacing as it is soaked through. TFTC
Had to dodge the lil old lady muggles manning the stalls nearby, but managed to kneel and pray and find the cache all in one movement.
Log is mash, could not even sign it.
Needs some TLC.
Thanks

Yep. Plenty of eyes across the street. But they didn't count on our sneaky arms and Grebren distraction techniques. Objective achieved, discreet find. TFTC.
Nice little cache but doesn't all fit and it looks like one if the logs is rain damaged. TFTC.
Nice easy find for a change. Shame the lid was off and contents spilt. Doesn't all fit in.
Found this one with help from the hint, as my gps lead me to a slightly different area. This area was very busy today with lots of muggles, so I had to wait a while before I could sign the log and replace the cache. TFTC.

Find # 3331
Streak: 95 days
I had planned a few extra days over the Melbourne Cup Day weekend about a month ago and when the time arrived, the weather looked like it was going to be perfect.
Heading home early after some Leg cramp issues, I decided to stop for a cache and some breakfast in Traralgon. Anyway, no muggles about today, so I was able to find the cache quite quickly. As mentioned in previous log, log book was soaked through, so I brought a replacement log sheet in a clip lock bag as a temporary measure.
Thanks to Nautilus7497 for the cache. TNLN

Entire contents saturated. Log is totally destroyed. Unable to sign. No trackable in cache
Emptied inner and outer containers of water. Log too wet to do anything with.
Log was soaked and the cache container full of water, maybe the urn needs a hole drilled in the bottom?
I arrived at this cache in the dark and set about finding the cache container. I found the interesting container in the third place i looked and I hoped the internal was in better condition than the outer.
Unfortunately the outer container had filled with water that has filled the inner and both are in need of urgent maintenance.
I emptied the water and scribed my name on the wet paper but it was nearly impossible to write on, I took a few photos just in case.
Our thanks to Nautilus 7497 for the cache, there must be some interesting history at the location, pity I didnt have some spare books and bags with me as i would have gladly fixed it.

September Stroll was born earlier in the week with an idea hatched to head in a loop towards Sale starting from Moe. Heading north up to Heyfield, across to Stratford then down to Sale before arriving home late, it was a magnificent spring day to enjoy East Gippsland.
We parked down the road and walked to GZ, Katy found the cache quite quickly, unfortunately the cache was soaking wet full of water. This cache is in dire need of maintenance.
Thanks for the cache Nautilus7497!!!

# 3881. Robmc and I are heading back to Melbourne today after caching around the area for a few days now. We are picking up a few on the way home (or rather I am, as he has done quite a few previously).
Oooh it was wet and colder by now. Parked around the corner and walked to this one. Found container quickly and emptied out the water. There was something nearby that was an indicator for the cache, for those astute hunters. So we left it there. Signed and back to the car for the next one. TFTC

On our way home after a few days caching in Gippsland with BettyBoo3747.
As others have said the cache was full of water today. We emptied it out, and replaced in its hide.
An interesting spot.
Thanks, Robmc.

Found with Redwiccan. Tipped out some water that was in the bottom, took nothing, left mini tape dispenser. TFTC!
Great clues we had fun finding this one we looked a little bit suss cos we were searching for it in the dark and had to use the torch but all was good we found it and we were very happy to have not been caught by anybody we kept as stealthy as possible thanks
Had to take my mums new benz in for its first service so I dropped it off at Mercedes and walked to 4 caches and this one was the second. The co-ords where spot on as I found in the first place I looked. sl .Thanks Nautilus for the cache
# 5452 Found on a trip into Morwell to check out the caches in town.
Found a few in town and a few more out and around the surrounding back roads too.
Nice and quiet and not many muggles around while I was here.
Quick find and off to the next one. TNLNSL TFTC Nautilus7497,

Trying to catch up finds from months ago, apologies for the belated log.
1st found in the company of Coley_Babee.
Caching today to attend the local event plus some other caches if time permits.
Quiet Saturday, except for the yobbos.
Thanks again Nautilus7497 for this cache.

Being a Saturday, GZ was nice and quiet, so we parked nearby and wandered around to GZ.
We spotted what we thought might be the cache, and thankfully it was, as I was scared it could be something else!!
Some goons drove past and tooted and yelled at us whilst we were signing the log!!!

Fortunately for us the area was very quite today while we searched. Great location. Happy Australia Day. SL TFTC
Found this one with the GeoHawk family on our way to Orbost, took snake and left a camp bouncy ball, TFTC!
Strange !! Went to replace cache and found Two!! Found the original replaced cache with it's log book and goodies and it was in good condition then I found a Mystery Cache which is a nice container but not real water-proof, so decided to put a smaller cache in the urn And take the original replaced cache back and now to see if I can work out the mystery ?? So thanks too the cacher who left the urn with a water-proof cache inside it now should be good - enjoy everybody
Although showing as temporarily unavailable, it is still there although it had water inside it & needs attention. TFTC
sat arvo a good time to visit nice and quiet.

Found whilst taking virgin cachers younglings out for their first caching - a little of blind leading the blind trying to learn new gps. Cach in poor condition - only emergency paper, just dirty. Cleaned out best we could placed swaps and new temp log - will need a log book bag and pencil. TFTC
TFTC - Maintinance request posted. Left small swaps for kids no trackables in cache.
Even though we were staying in town for two nights, knowing that I would be passing this cache today I left it untouched.
A quick find was made this morning (the log sheet is very damp).
Thanks for the cache Nautilus7497.

This was the first of a few caches for me today where the coordinates appeared to be way out of whack. A read of the hint though soon had me with the stash in hand at 07:40. A nice container but it is quite damp inside.
For reference, the coordinates I measured were S38° 11.528 E146° 31.671.
TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Nautilus7497.
PS: There was no sign of the [url=http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?guid=401ff733-cd61-4bc3-a6b5-d65fd3b63c74]BP Travel Tag[/url] traveller in the cache.

No trouble finding this one, bt water damage to the log book needs to be addressed. TFTC
I think this cache needs some divine intervention. The only thing left is a single piece of paper. TFTC.
I have emailed the last person on the physical log 'chelseakitten' (they havent logged online) in regards to the missing travel bug. waiting for a response.
A lovely plague dedicated to Thelma Edebohls in the garden, I wonder if anyone has found it too
Did not find the BP travel bug in cache, but did find a travel bug called 'flutey' NX442D, have moved him to a cache in Moe.
