One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 28 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Can confirm previous log by ianandpenny. Major bridgeworks being undertaken and road access blocked from either direction. May need archiving temporarily until works completed.

Ther is quite a lot of work going on at the bridge here and the road is closed. It may pay to disable the cache until the work is complete.

Journeying back to Bendigo following a successful Cohuna Matata event, I took my usual round about way which was definitely not the most direct route to add to the numbers. A quick find then it was off to find some more before eventually arriving home late in the evening. Many thanks Beerjoeyjoe for placing this cache.

# 3013. Robmc and I had attended the Cohuna Matata Event over the long week-end. Today we were collecting a few more in the area. We came here and were surprised to see the lonely plaque by the side of an extremely dry and dusty landscape. We were also surprised to see the flood sign nearby. The cache was sitting in the open as it won't fit back where it came from due to some damage to the structure. TFTC

Found with BPJTHillas during the Cohuna event. TFTC
BTW - not sure about logging finds on your own hides...(even when you do maintenance)
 
11-Mar-13
A long weekend's caching around Cohuna with Bettyboo3747.
Not too much left of the old town. Did it have anything to do with the 9 meter flood marker nearby?
Of course a Pub was the first building to go up.
Thanks, Robmc.
PS: I think the hide has been compromised a bit. The cache was on the ground nearby and wouldn't fit where we thought it should go.

An Epic trip from Mildura to Mount Beauty - This was the Eighth find for the day, on a very cold night. We collected 54 caches for the day. We traveled many side roads, saw many sights, experienced many interesting caches and areas, and the trip took about 18 hours. It was frosty and misty on the bridge at 4.30 am. Took TB.

Found by Roma and Max.
This is one of the rare occasions where we have missed logging a cache, for whatever reason!
However better late than never and we recall enjoying the search and our later meeting with Wazza and his team at the next cache in town.
Thanks and cheers,
from Romax.

This log marks the 1268th smiley to be recorded in the stats of WazzaAndWenches.

We'd heard good reports about a food joint in Swan Hill so decided to take a weekend off and try out the tucker. Of course, we'd have to find a few caches along the way...

A quick and easy find. As we hit the highway on the way back to Kerang we spotted Romax turning off in front of us to also search for this cache. We caught up with them in Kerang a short time later.

Thanks Beerjoeyjoe

Spotted this one while logging a few caches gave the plodder a buzz and decided to chase this one down at night! Great to see another local cache thanks to beerjoeyjoe!

A Saturday night telephone call from 'The Comrades' - "Hey want to go get a recently added Kerang cache?". "Absolutely!" my reply. So off we went around 9pm and by torchlight had the cache to hand after a short search. I went back a few days later to see the cache site in daylight and it's better to find in daylight. Some good fishing spots nearby too. Thank you to 'Beerjoeyjoe' for the cache and location. TNLN.

Yahoo my first to find, log to follow TFTC

Thanks for the opportunity to be the first to find. A nice simple one on my way home from Melbourne. And after recieving an email on the the publication the night before I was pretty excited about being first to sign the log.

I had no idea the site was here so thank you for showing me this interesting site from the past.

Dropped two TB's I retrieved from the Ozmega over Easter. Took Silver Para Olympic Pin
