Good one. Lovely spot. Thanks

Nice quick park and grab. TFTC

Fun find with the kids ️

On the way home from Bendigo after a few days staying with a muggle friend. A bit of a search soon had this found and the log signed and I am on my way. Thanks for the enjoyment

Quick one! Tftc

Good little find thanks!

TFTC! Nice little place to stop and stretch legs on a trip.

A trip to check out some of the awesome places in Victoria. TFTC.
A nice quick drive-by grab.

Talboc to Longwood
Stopped on the road to do a couple of caches with the caravan on.
Have now set up camp at the Longwood sports ground.

Thanks for placing your cache.

Nice and easy find, #1 for the day

Traveling north to an astronomy dark sky site and stopped at a few AdLabs and some odd caches on the way.
Fortunately no mini-muggles playing here today.
Made for an easy search.
Thanks, Robmc.

Chook was travelling to Mia Mia today to play journo at a horse endurance ride there. Our geocaching addiction dictates that one cannot waste fuel by driving past caches While she couldn't get them all, she did choose a handful to find, and this was one of them.

Being a cold drizzly day, there was luckily no-one around so Chook was able to make a nice quick find. All good at GZ.

We have settled into our new base on Mt Alexander and ducking out from time to time to grab some nearby caches.

It was a quick visit here from camp today to grab the two caches in town. Originally walking in opposite directions the technology eventually aligned and we arrived at the same GZ for a quick find. No cherubs on the equipment today.

Thanks tigersden for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to find.

Cache condition – damp but the log book was dry.

Who would of thought we would be sprung by muggles here. They kept walking but didn't take their eyes off us until they were well up the road! TFTC

Thank goodness there were no children at the playground this am as it sure made finding this cache a lot easier. Nice little playground.
TFTC tigersden

Easy find today. Thanks tigersden

TFTC good instructions

Found thanks glad no kids in playground

I wasn't too sure about this cache as I approached GZ. There were a lot of cars parked nearby but all the muggles must have been inside in the warmth. A quick find, sign and replace and I was off after the next cache. I haven't ever been in this area before so thanks for bringing me here.

Bit tricky- kids gave up but hubby found it

After doing the house chores in the morning - Bunadoorian and I decided we would go caching up and around Bendigo as we hadn't done many up there finishing the day off with the Event at Kennnington. After lunch at the nice bakery in Heathcote we headed off on our scenic drive to towns we hadn't been to before before arriving at Bendigo.

This was our eighth cache of the day. I found the nicely hidden cache. TFTC tigersden and for bringing us to this nice area.

Grub62 found this cache while I was playing in the playground. TFTC.

25 September 2019 12:32 pm. Used to dance in this hall as a kid being dragged around by mum and dad tho Old Time dances. Nice to see it in daylight. A day for cutting grass apparently as a friendly local stopped for a chat. Showed him the cache so he knew I wasn't a strange,shifty person

Found it

Found it

Bloody sore knees [:(!] meant that I couldn't drive up to the Wollongong Mega so a shorter caching trip was required since my leave had been approved for the purpose of geocaching

A day trip to and from Mt Beckworth was planned but with the wet weather and soreness[xx(], it became a two day trip with an overnight stay in Clunes[^]
After a brief visit into the clouds and rain at Mt Beckworth on Sunday afternoon with a couple of finds and then a VERY smelly Rex who rolled in something dead[xx(][:(!][xx(] it was decided that a warm sleep was required after a dog wash and so Clunes became the night camp[^]
Getting into the key safe at the motel was harder than most puzzle cache padlocks I had to hang up on the manager, get the headtorch and concentrate to get the key (Backup plan was that the kindly manager would come to rescue me if needed!) [^] Thus ended Sunday with tea being pistachios, dried coconut and apricots while lying on a motel bed [|)]

Monday morning was chatting with a lovely local woman (who has a Lab and a Beagle - rescue dogs) and having her watch me replace the first attempted cache (with CO's permission) while dodging the local 'politician's' who were cheery as while getting ready for the NAIDOC week flag raising. The local lady ended up putting me on the phone to her hubby Poor man was being passed around a bit as he also had to contend with being handed over to a 'politician' too

After the 1st cache find was on the board, a great 'Shearer's Breakfast' was had at the Quigley & Clarke Cafe - Restaurant (and wishing I could have stayed for their tea that night as the menu looked delicious and was 3 courses for $30!) then it was time to cache Clunes and enjoy the scenery and sights! [^]

Finally it was back to Mt Beckworth for another late afternoon trip in and out with another couple of finds as the sun set before heading for home[|)] A new email on the way meant a detour towards Harcourt and a new cache was found (to make my 3rd FTF for the trip) then it was a foggy trip home to end a short but pleasant cache trip with a total of 16 cache finds [|)]

A leg break for Rex and I and a quick find
I added a home made log book in a new bag so cache is all ok at the moment [^]
As soon as I saw the name, I knew who the CO would be

TNLN. SL. TFTC tigersden

Log needs replacing and moldy but great spot

Out with Mr X for the day going to an open garden. pulled over for the nice easy find in the playground thanks for the cache

**Find #2631**

Out on the Geo-cycle for a ride. A nice easy find today.

Thanks **tigersden**

TFTC.

Straightforward find, log damp and full. T4TC

We were up in Bendigo as Geoturtle got tickets to attend the netball on up there over the weekend. Now that we are heading home, we only have a little time to grab a couple of caches. Very surprised that the public table top was polished granite. Quick find. Thanks for the cache and bringing us here.

We pulled off the highway to come and search for this cache, which we soon located once at Ground Zero. We signed the log book and then replaced as found. Thanks so much for the cache and greetings from Zimbabwe

Some lovely birds at this one

Nice cache Tigersden. Found on way to visit a geocaching friend for a few days. But he was a friend for about 11 years before Geocaching even started! TFTC!

On a well earned break in Castlemaine and I’m spending the time just touring the whole area, enjoying the sites and picking up caches as I go.
I don’t usually do too many playgrounds as I get to many funny looks, but this one was empty and a quick search I had the log signed.
Thanks tigersden TFTC.

I usually don’t like children’s playground caches as retrieving them usually involves getting down onto hands and knees and groping around under the bottom of slides or platforms. This was not in the playground footprint and did require a bit of a hunt, but in the end it was an easy find with no stretch for me. I’m sorry I didn’t have time in the dying light to find some swag to put in the cache to make it more attractive to children.

Not very hard

??

I think I found it but it had been damaged... I have messaged the original member

Nice easy find. Pen not working and forgot to bring our own so didn't sign but tftc.

Too easy! Great for kids

Too easy! Good for kids.

found today, had to have a break from driving so got this one during a break.

Thanks tigersden

Suscoe enjoyed a delightful day today wandering around the Bendigo region.
It was a sunny day again and with the temperature reaching 30 degrees it was a beaut day.
We found a range of caches from bushland to farmland and city locations.
We always love this area and today was no exception.
Thanks to tigersden for this hide.
A quiet spot apart from the peloton heading south at some speed.

A nice easy find this morning on my way to lumch with a friend in Bendigo. Thanks.

Great spot! Interesting church up the back to look at. Container is abit wet though.

Tftc. On holidays from qld

First find on our holiday to visit family. GPS was having some troubles but it was an easy find when we started looking where we expected it to be. Tftc

Didn't manage to find this one. Had a bunch of muggles in the car who didn't understand.

Cache #2

Great find kids might need some help

Find # 4457

A Lazy Saturday driving around the country side collecting smileys.
Well I have never been over to Mt Alexander so what better way to see it.

After coming off the mount it was time for some quick grabs a little further from home.
Coming back from Redesdale thankfully the local kids were not using the equipment making for a quick grab.

TFTC

A nice quick find here today lovely spot. Cache quite damp but signable.
Signed and replaced. TFTC.

On the way to Malmsbury for lunch at MOTO BEAN we did some geocaching and found some great hide

Found Atila's 2nd cache while out for a bike ride Lovely spot to stop for a snack but unfortunately I'm too big to go down the playground slide. Emptied some water from the cache and the log was a bit damp but I was still able to sign it TFTC!
