It is missing. Feedback was never great in regards to what I wanted to achieve with this cache so archiving rather then replacing.
parked as close as we could to also be safely off the road and then walked. Only had my phone on me and it would never correctly pinpoint gz. Kept sending us around in circles but we found some likely spots but all we could find were spiderwebs. No luck for us on this one.
Picked up the cache down the road.... It would be a waste to not turn this one into a smiley face.
Water, water, everywhere and all of it to drink.
Fortunately we didn't get swallowed up here.
Thanks for the caches Paul

Find #1415
Another Friday night and I was out with my caching partner, Stemicmitsar. We decided to head for the Dandenongs to attempt some of the new mystery caches and anything else that took our fancy. We walked a total of 14.66km in 3 hours, not including short walks to a few other caches on our way home.
Our last find of the night. It was a quick find and then we were on our way home.

Found @ 10:13pm, find # 3470.
Another Friday night adventure with biggles1024 and tonight we headed for the Dandenongs.
We called it a night and headed for home but we still stopped for some if they were close by.
We continued along the road a little further to this one, we were on the wrong side of the road at first then headed over to the other side, once there the cache was found quickly which was good as it was raining again.
Thanks to Paul the Hippy for placing this cache.

Sorry for the late log. Grabbed this one with Happy pants and the geo kids. Enjoyed this little hide along with our little drama when returning the cache. Thanks Paul the hippy for the cache.
Managed a quick park and grab this afternoon after searching the wrong tree. When my youngest geoson asked to return the cache I said, yeah no worries. Well with his arm disappearing up to his armpit I thought I didn't think it was THAT far in. "Mate where did you put it?"....pause.... "I can't feel it any more dad" was the reply. With that, I don't know where he put it but it went back alot further than intended. I checked for a while but I couldn't find it with my larger hands and I thought the idea of a needs maintenance log by myself wouldn't be an ideal outcome. My youngest geo nephew tried and soon his arm disappeared up to his armpit but after few moments he got his fingers to it and I then put it back to it proper spot. Thanks Paul the Hippy for the cache, fellow cachers beware that there is a deep ravine that can swallow a cache maybe even a whole cacher in this tree.
A belated log.
Found on a quick outing with the kids. Good to see some more caches popping up around Monbulk.

Found easily today. I have a cache only a km or two from here but several km by road. Thanks Paul the Hippy.
I went for a short ride with wife and dog in sidecar this afternoon, and picked up this cache. Thanks Paul.

Found at 2:03 PM GAFF3. The GPSr had us on the other side of the road, but we checked the obvious spot first without success. Didn't spot the other "obvious" spot until we did a bit of a tour.
One of those tanks up on the hill supplies our daughters place with water And the water here doesn't taste of fluoride either!
Thanks Paul_the_Hippy.

Found with niftynevau. Found this before Gone Fishen. No muggles here to contend with. Three of yours today Paul. Keep up the good work. TFTC
Thanks for the explanation of where the water is from It certainly gets around. A precious resource we take too much for granted.
Fairly easy find, spotted at GZ from the car! Signed log and tried to cover it up a bit better. TNLN. TFTC.

2caches in about 300m, geodog has not left the car yet and is staring at me somewhat keen! Tftc
30/06/2013 01:07 Dropped Sue at the nearby Living and Learning Centre for yet another days sewing lessons I had a nice breaky at a local cafe. After that I tried my hand at the closest caches in Monbulk. After an easy collection at the nearby "Gone Fishin" cache, This was not quite where I expected it to be, as I got distracted by an obvious location till I read the hint. Assume nothing!

We found this cache today at 11:50am as the 6th of 26 on our Donna Buang bound Saturday. A second quick roadside stop. Thanks from D, HA & A B-A
Out today with Team_coxy for a fun relaxing day caching.
GPSr had us originally on the wrong side of the road.

Out on a cache run with Datruk on a nice winters day.
Coords had us on the wrong side of the road. After establishing this fact it was a quick find.
Thanks for you efforts and placing this cache.

Just ideal weather today for caching and was running solo picking up some new caches around Mt Dandenong, Olinda & Monbulk this afternoon. Great fun and made even better while listening to the Triple J - Top 100 countdown.
A nice spot for a cache, having found the outer near by this one took a little longer as I suspect it was somewhere else but a process of elimination soon had cache in hand. TFTC Paul the Hippy

Well, four days after being published, "A Dry Log" still had no found logs against its name and although I doubted this one was still un found, I decided to give it a go anyway and then grab some other older caches in the area which I had not yet had a chance to find.
I parked up the road near the big water tank for this one, then walked down the road to GZ. My GPSr initially had me searching on the wrong side. I had almost given up when I glanced over and spotted a couple of possibilities and the cache was soon found.
Thanks to Paul the Hippy for the cache. TNLN

Continuing up from the last cache again parked within meters of GZ and spotted the likely hiding spot from the car bingo signed the log and returned as found.

I had been saving a few caches close to home to fill in some gaps on the calender, this was one of them, I was thinking I wonder if paul can get a cache in the clounds as thats where the water comes from, Thanks Paul am enjoying visiting these locations.
In the locality with my caching mate Slink1. We used bikes where needed, Walked when appropriate, drove where possible. A day of caching enjoyment was had by both of us, and a vote of thanks to the cache owners for the effort and placement of the caches. TNLN SL TFTC.

Well, talk about a drive by. Not only did I park beside GZ, I didn't get out of the car, turn the ignition off or undo my seatbelt!! Geo daughter did all the hardwork for me, and all I got was "Incoming" and a container landed on the seat beside me. Thanks for the cache Paul.
My mumma always told me "If you ain't got nothin nice to say, then say nothing at all".

This one popped up just as I was about to leave for work. Quick drive by. Couple of muggle cars drove by and I tried to loiter inconspicuously behind my tree. TFTC! FTF.
