Quaero quero Huntly, Victoria, Australia
By The Morris on 27-Jul-12. Waypoint GC3RCHP

Needs a rethink

Need to be looked at May be pirated looked every where around pole 1 found paper clip and nail in pole, looked under every rock just have a check thanks

Please do maintance. May have been washed away

I had a good look for this one with Cybergran V without any luck. I did enjoy looking at the magnificent wood saw sculptures. They even looked great from the other side of the fence as we turned the car. They are such a treasure for the community here.

Once we approached from the right side it was an easy find since the container was lying out in the open. Added our names and put it back in the logical spot. Great sculptures and a very well-maintained little spot.
Thanks The Morris

Nice emorial

Found on our way through to Creswick from our trip up North. Love the sculptures.

Cache #4 - amazing sculptures of our servicemen and women. Found cache on the ground next to its hide, placed it back in what I believe was its original location

This year for ANZAC day I was away camping, thankyou for bringing me to this place so I could pay my respects.
All the flowers were straightened and the cache was found.
Thankyou

Hooray one for me but I found it on the ground near where it should be, replaced it before the big crowd gets here tomorrow for the Anzac Day service, love the carvings

Nice hide
Thanks The Morris for bring me here and cache

Cache was gone from the location described in the hint so we replaced it from the resources of the Pajero. Love the carvings.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This cache was found using a Garmin Montana 650t. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

Well it looks like fine weather for another adventure So joining Firesafe Freddo and 3lg at Dimboola we headed off the target was the high voltage series. We picked up alot of caches for that weekend and had a great weekend doing it we loved the views and finds all with great company

Thanks to The Morris for placing the caches for us to find

Found on a 4 day caching run with Firesafe, Freddo and Honeysucker, its the final day and now we make our way homeward bound collecting caches along the way, weather was perfect and i got to see some very interesting cache hides, a big thank you to all for hiding these caches for us to find on our journey and look forward to one day returning back to Victoria to cache more of this beautiful state. TFTC

# 7484 Found on the third leg of our S.K.I.D.R.O. adventure,
on the way to Bendigo for a few days.
Almost there and one quick stop before we come to a stop.
No sign of any muggles around and a quick find.
Thanks for the cache The Morris,
Roostaman.

Good cache!

Great monument, but a shame that the plaques have all been stolen . TFTC.

Easy find and cook container...

Out caching with lumpyjrb on my birthday, this was a nice quick find and I did like the carvings. TFTC.

Found with Lionjrb. Tftc . Interesting carvings.

Quick and easy to find ... TFTC

Why did I stop here ?
To seek a cache of course
I was in Huntly for the Hunt, Lee

A delightful little memorial park set the scene.
Distracted by the plaques I wandered for a while.
Hey !!
There's a plaque here commemorating a member of one of the Mounted Infantry at Galipoli who died on the battlefield in August 1915 [:o]
How's that for history !! [^]

A short distance away I found the cache.

But wait !!
Where are the three carved statues.
Surely the trio of traffic cones were not a modern art version of proper statuary ?[:o]

I guess the carvings have been removed for a while until some proper concrete bases can be installed.

TFTC and visit to an interesting place [^]

Found @ 10:45 - Very nice camo, had me thinking and re checking the hint
TFTC.

micheena - nice easy drive by on our way home.

Great coords lead us straight to the cache. SL TFTC

Found at 3:14:00 PM while travelling to Bendigo. No sign of the carvings today they have been replaced with plastic bollards.

Thanks The Morris

My wife and I went on a tour to locate some historic horse troughs and geocaches. We found this on our first day. tftc.
Crusty.

Lovely remembrance area. TFTC

TFTC, 4th for the day

Removing maintenance flag as it has been well looked after by Romax. Very disappointed the statues haven't returned but at least now there is a metal wattle sculpture nearby.

out for a quick cache found straight a way tftc

A neat hide. Reading the hint would make it too easy. Piyt about the absent sculptures TFTC The Morris

Clever hide. Pity the carvings were not there. TFTC.

In the area with Dunko on a on a planned caching run.
Bikes deployed where needed, Walking when appropriate, drive by where
possible. A big day of caching enjoyment was had by both of us, and a
vote of thanks to The Morris for the effort and placement of the
caches. TNLN SL TFTC.

Out and about at large with Slink1 on a on a planned caching run.
An afternoon of caching enjoyment was had by our little group, and a
vote of thanks to all the CO's for the effort and placement of the
caches. TNLN SL TFTC.

So easy but still a cute little hiding spot. Thanks.

Someone's car had broken down across the highway but the tow truck stopped there also hid me from their view as I retrieved the cache.

Quick find on the way to Echuca for a few days.
Great carvings, and well worth dropping a cache in the area.
Thanks The Morris for another Q cache

Found by DotG, Quick drive by, no carvings though. Cache was in good condition, SL TFTC.

Lovely little restful area, and rather appropriate for all the plaques on view. Nicely hidden cache too. SL, TFTC!

Found at 10:40AM on the 21st of April by Ray and Maya as we head for Gosford via the inland route.
Our second easy find for the day. TFTC. The Nomads.

Where have all those marvelous carved statues disappeared to, here's hoping their departure isn't permanent.
However all the memorial plaques are there and we found the container cap, replaced it, and all is well again.

we found cache open with no lid out on the ground why do muggles tamper with the fun popped in paperand replaced where we thought it may have come from.

Found with Parko's as a part of the Geocaching Scout competition. Thanks for the cache

Quick find after spending the night in Bendigo. Thanks The Morris

sad to see you lying there on the ground replaced your paper and snuggled you back in to the first.

Great little location and nice hide. Thanks

A day's caching in Bendigo with half of The Morris (someone has to do some work!), and Bettyboo3747.
We didn't see any sculptures, but we did find three Morris's! Relations?
Hopefully they will return (the sculptures not the people in the memorial)
Thanks, Robmc.

# 2907. Robmc and I were travelling with the CO today and at this point we were heading for "Y is for Yellow". Stopped in here to grab Quaero quero as a Q cache for the A-Z Bendigo Challenge. Unfortunately the 4 have gone MIA and have been for some time apparently. Oh well, will have to revisit them another day. Rob discovered the nicely hidden container and we were soon on our way. Thanks The Morris for the cache.

Our 2nd day of caching in the Bedigo region.
Have been to some great areas this morning, old gold mine sites, parkes & waterways.
All have been good quality caches.
Last one on our afternoon out. Nice to have crossed paths with you earlier in the day.
Thanks The Morris

#3770 Found on our way out of town after spending some time in this lovely city for the Flash Mob & GCA dinner event. We really liked the name of this cache.....something out of the ordinary however reading the cache page there is a reason for it & a good one at that . A lovely little GZ that was deserted when we arrived mid afternoon on the Sunday. A nice cache container (great in the weather) was found well tucked away. Our thanks to The Morris for highlighting this POI & perhaps we might be on our way to achieving the requirements for the "other" cache. Cheers [^]

Found certain items of interest missing, would of loved to have seen these. Clever little hide found, signed and returned TFTC

Found by PR&F on 16/2/13 @ 9.45am with harry_stamper.
Quick easy find on our way to the Flash Mob.
Thanks The Morris

Just what I needed a Q for the A-Z challenge! No statues here today may have to return to check them out another day! TFTC!!!

Lately I have been trying to fill in the "Finds for Each Day of the Year" graph in my statistics, but it's 11pm and I haven't made a find today! AND I am also running out of quick easy caches in Bendigo!
To nut out a puzzle or roadtrip across town..?? I suck at puzzles so it wasn't a hard question..

Thanks heaps to The Morris for this great little find.

We have visited this spot several times and were surprised to find today that the sculpture were absent. I hope they are away for cleaning and reappear soon.

It was great to find another Q for the A-Z challenge, however we are very stuck trying to find a Y that it is some way do-able!

TFTC

Clever hide, TFTC.

Found the cache but didnt get to view the carvings.
Nice hide again.
TFTC TNLNSL

Found by Mary & David at 0905. The plaque showed us where the carvings once stood. Now just orange bollards stand there. With any luck, they are away being refurbished. Hope they haven't been vandalised. Enjoyed the peace and quiet, the solemnity and the gardens. Our thanks to The Morris.

an amazing and beautiful park, after removing cobwebs i had the cache in hand, tftc

Forgot to log this this one.
We found it on Bendigo cup day with fnlee and maca5
Nice carvings pitty someone has removed the plaques from each of them.
TFTC

# 359 - we really like this kind of hide, there's another in Bendigo which caused us much grief! TFTC The Morris

Found on a night caching trip.

Found at 4.00pm. Excellent Memorial Park to those that have served for Australia. . Maybe the plaques are being updated, as they were not attached to the wood sculptures. Cache was quickly in hand and signed. TFTC

We woke up this morning to a much better day today with the sun shining and we again joined forces with Alansee to see what was in store today. Although we had already picked up a Q yesterday we thought that you could never have enough Q's and came to grab tis one as well. We were very impressed with the sculptures here, we even know a series that they would have fitted into quite well. As the area was totally deserted today the cache was found right where the GPSr needle said that it should be and we were very quickly adding our names to the log.
Thanks once more The Morris for the cache.

Found with Team Crackers this morning. We had started off wanting a Q for the A-Z challenge and ended up with 3! Thanks The Morris. A real shame that the plaques on the nearby wooden statues have been taken.

I've had fun hunting for and finding this cache, It never ceases to amaze me how the CO in the first instance comes up with the idea for placing a cache at this location. After signing the log and then replacing the cache, another find becons me. Thanks The Morris for the cache.

Suscoe's third find of the day.
Really interesting carvings here, pity they are hidden away a little from the highway.
Thanks to The Morris for bringing us here.

First of two Q caches today. Nice how they provided a suitably carved seat to enable cachers to log in comfort too.

Found at 4.40 on our caching trip around the area. Very impressive statues. Thanks The Morris

Never noticed these statues before thanks for showing them to me

Nice easy find. Interesting spot. Tftc

Heading home from Bendigo. Wasn't sure I could grab this one as a function in the hall, smokers out front. Snuck down the back and grabbed by torchlight. Tftc
Now one more for the Bendigo A -Z challenge, that elusive Z.

The Coffee's picked this one up today.
Thanks for the cache The Morris
Regards The Coffee's

Had been down to Bendigo for the day with Co from Lostmonster&Co as Lost had to work.We had been to the International Geocaching Day Event and where heading out of town.We pulled in and where lucky to get a park despite the fact it was 9.30 pm so we didnt hang about to much here we did see the statues and would like to have had a better look.Maybe next time.

A day trip down to Bendigo for the Inernational Geocaching Day Event. Travelled with PD, as Lostmonster was working today. Found on our way home. The Hall was full of people, but no one was outside. So stealth was required and with the hint the cache was found quickly. Didn't have a chance to look at the wooden sculptures, not a good idea with torches..........cheers The Morris

A great place for a cache. easy find Love going to these places with history with them.
TFTC.

Journeying to Bendigo for tomorrows International Geocaching Day event. I managed to make the 2 hour drive take 5, making a number of finds along the way.

A very interesting spot! I took the chance and the break in the rain to have a quick look around before locating the cache.

This log marks the 1405th smiley to be recorded in the stats of WazzaAndWenches.

We couldn't make it down last night to help Tigersden celebrate 250 hides and we also has a prior commitment this morning so couldn't make it to the 4x4 event. We could, however, have a drive through the scrub late in the day and find a few on our own.

Another letter crossed off our A-Z Challenge. Just two to go.

Thanks The Morris and thanks for the coffee and chat earlier in the day.

Another big day caching in Bendigo and surrounds with 67 finds and no DNF's. Started the day caching out to Axedale then spending a day with the Central Victorian Geocachers on a 4WD adventure through the Fosterville Hills.

There were a number of caches placed for the event including a smiley face geoart in the forest. Also completed a number of challenge caches for various milestones and made a find on an unpublished cache.

Finished the day with some CBD night caching before heading back to the cabin for a bourbon and pizza.

Some good wood carving here. TFTC.

Ventured out here with friends whilst the men we were busy moving a rainwater tank. Miss 5 picked up some stars that were lying on the ground, presumably the aftermouth of a wedding at the adjacent hall and added them to the cache. TFTC

Found on our way to Echuca.
We bought pies at the local bakery and had them here.
A nice easy cache and a great place to stop as we would never have seen these great chainsaw sculptures.
Thanks to The Morris.

Found with Mum & dad.
What a fun place to have lunch.
I ran around for ages finding lots of numbers!
Thanks The Morris.

Quick and easy grab with Chaplain Mike today. Find number 7 of 8. SL TNLN TFTC!

Find 5 of 6 today, with Smart Sassy Siren on her way to her 250th find.

Thanks The Morris, had I been home when released, I'd have got this as a FTF. But instead, I was at Bairnsdale getting FTF's instead and releasing new styled caches.

Spending the weekend in Echuca/Moama for a getaway so greetings from Melbourne! But heading home now & nice to stop by for a break to do this cache! We liked the statues! SL. TFTC.
Our TB's Visited too!

What a great place to show us The Morris!!!! Thankyou.
We have driven past here hundreds of times and have never
noticed this little area. Fantastic carvings aren't they.
Easy find so SL and headed off to the next one.

10:54
These are certainly amazing carvings, the grain on the sailor is beautiful. We now have more than our share of "Q's" but I guess we are not allowed to onsell! Bronze Medal for us! Given the CO the cache police were really surprised to find this cache without identification or stash note.

TNLN . . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt The Morris.

Found by Roma and Max.
We were just setting off for Roma to get a haircut this morning when we became aware of your new hide!
Seven Hours later with four new caches found and she was in the chair getting her trim!
We have been wondering when someone would put these wonderful carvings on the geocaching circuit, some people are so very clever with wood working tools.
Thanks The Morris for another "Q", we also have one in the pipeline.
Cheers,
from Romax.

Raced out as soon as this one came through to us but beaten by Romax again... Anyway it gave us a chance to try out Maddi's new GPS as we don't have ours back yet Amazing carvings TFTC The Morris.
