Grabbing some caches with omegama1971 and Happy pants and this was one of the few we couldn't find. Look about in all the logs and other likely place but nothing found. Hard to believe there has been no other DNF since April, with all the other finds nearby. Needs a check from CO.
A little overcast and cool today. Arrived near GZ and all quiet. Searched a couple of likely spots and had the cache in hand, signed log. Then off the the next cache in this area. TFTC
12:36, 4 Jan 17, Find # 126, Out for a day caching with my daughter Ali and Sezzy2683 on her side of town.
Sezzy was driving up this track and bump and bump and bump, over the speed humps we went, not sure why so many speed humps for a small track but it was fun none the less, we parked and got out and I noticed the old building beside us and said is that what I think it was.. she said yes thats the old stadium.
Anyway we headed off to find this one and once again not long out of the car and I hear a Found IT.. damn I have taught her well.. Sezzy and I walk over and there is Ali with it in her hands saying look at this one. I knew I brought her for a reason. haha....
The log was signed and then Ali replaced it to where she found it. I took a pic of the building and then we headed off to find some more in the area. TFTC.

Nice, easy find today. Presumably due to the temperature and break there were no usual suspects in the park at all which made for a very quick search.
This cache was a good reminder that sometimes simple caches can still be satisfying finds.
Located after a short search late tonight - simple but effective camo as well.
Thanks for the cache, Two_Drews.

After finishing up lunch at 2 Brothers Brewery I decided to pick up a few caches in and around the area. A nice easy find in a familiar hiding place. TFTC
A quick and easy drive by as we cache our way around the area today. I visited this park some time ago and found #2, but there was a family enjoying a picnic quite close to gz and I wasn't game to risk it. But they say that good things come to those who wait, and so it was today, and not a muggle to be seen. We like your hide too, simple but very effective. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Doing a quick couple of caches after school pick up. We had to be quite speedy as the sky looked like it was going to pour rain on us at any minute. Despite the extra pressure we managed to find the great hiding spot in short order. After waiting for some Muggles and Puggles to move on by, we retrieved the cache and signed the log. TFTC
McBagi's adventure log: #058-K. Nice easy find in the gorgeous sunshine today. Cheers.
This one was quite easy. After a half fail on number 2, I headed down to this one, which sorta was very dodgy as people kept walking pass me. Just like one just did right now. Anyways, not too long after arriving at GZ, the cache was in hand and logged. Tftc
Tftc easy find but the natural camo was upside down. Nice find on Good Friday. Going to find the other one in the park. Never knew that St Kilda plays near here. Thanks
Ahh - the glory days of St Kilda...Thought I would take advantage of a long weekend in Melbourne and got out the bike, intending on collecting a couple and then going home. 8 hours later!. Liked this little hide and the park is excellent. TFTC
This is day 25 of our trip out of Sydney touring the southern states of Victoria and Tasmania.
We were glad to find the closest entrance to this park area and the cache. The cache itself was no too hard to find and after the log had been signed the cache was replaced as found. TFTC.

Found this one quickly once seeing the likely hiding place. Old log full, enough room in cache to add makeshift new log sheet to last a while longer. Thanks for the series Two Drews. Gradually making my way around to them all.
Thanks for bringing me to this lovely park. Spending time between appointments. Great camo. TFTC
Fond memories as in the distant past visited here to view the Saints home games. Excellent camo hide, nice work.. thanks..!!
Great day for a walk with Geo dog who seemed rather pleased at the turn of events, turning up to a new park. Few people around but nice pleasant walk after some feral weather. I even managed to get muggle partner to come along (oo it's getting chilly I have to go back for my hat - no geostamina!)
Had a pretty good idea where to look straight off. Had a bit of trouble returning it without being spotted!
TFTC!

Thanks so much for this geocache! I enjoyed looking for it and enjoyed the park too. Because I'm a newbie I was practically on top of it for 20 minutes before I found it but it was satisfying when I found it in the end. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to look for the others in the series but I will definitely come back and bring my puppy! Cheers!
One of the funniest moments we have had in our short geocaching career. Knowing it was probably in one of the huge XXXXs on the ground, I went to the end of one and picked up an implement to start digging some of the other stuff out. As I was doing so, I looked at my geokids and asked them if they could see anything in the larger XXXX.
"See anything, guys? See anything, guys?" I said.
"Dad, look at the [implement] you're using."
"Oh." Indeed, the cache was on the implement itself.
And then the geokids started cracking up at me and my cluelessness. Hilarious.
Great hide (obviously), and thank you for the great geofamily moment that we won't forget!

Did this series in reverse, headed out with my doglet to disguise my searches. This was my first find of the three, originally rather perplexed as my android app gps lead me to the centre of the grassy field. Counting on my phone leading me astray yet again I followed my first instincts to where I felt the cache might be hiding, given the name. However I found a disgusting amount of beer cans and alcohol bottles pretending to be caches. Not sure if practical joke or seriously twisted litterbugs. Came close to giving up after doubting my intuition, but spotted the hide when I took off towards #2. Nice camo! Log totally full, had to write over old logs tftc though!
Suscoe's 11th find on a cloudy day.
All quiet here this morning, not one dog to be seen.
Thanks to the Two Drews for placing this cache here.

OK. 1 out of 2 so we really wanted this one so geoboy and myself went off to where the GPS told us. silly us for believing a GPS! Headed back into the underbrush and straight for a logical location and bang - geoboy found it right away. Log very full as well so will need changing, but we found a tiny spot and scribbled in it and placed it back again. 2 out of 3 done and out of time to go back and retry the first one. Next time. TFT series. Will complete it soon.
Excellent find on a nice quiet morning only the sounds of the birds and a happy dog. Needs a new log tftf
Didn't have any luck with Water Widjit and had to get a cache as part of our P366. After a previous DNF with Log It, happy to advise a find tonight. Clever container. TFTC
Found with geokid on a cold wintery night as the light was fading. Grabbed this one but muggle dog walkers elsewhere in the park. Will come back for others log full (!)
Found on a geocaching walk with geoson and a friend.
As a long time Saints supporter, this was rather special. The cache was found easily, and afterwards, we had a walk around the oval.
Thanks Two_Drews

Second cache for the day on Easter Sunday with a bunch of new cache gowers. Lovely day out. TFTC
Such a sweet hide! Great camo and construction. As foretold in the description, a family of muggles appeared out of nowhere. Take care!
Love the gone to the dogs series. Needed an excuse to get out of the house, read get away from the kids for half an hour! Very smart as usual. Log is full but signed where i could squeeze myself in. TFTC
Log book pretty full, but can find a space here and there. A very quick find in the most obvious location.
had a mission to get to baby bunting this morning thought we would try and get to our number 500, this cluster was loaded into the radar. the log book here is essentially full but room can be found.
Twas a quick find today as we wound our way through the dog walking muggles. Well, not that many but enough of them. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here.
We found this cache today at 1:45pm as number 8 of 12 on our Southland and Back Tour. Huzzah, after a lot of trips to this area, we finally have all of this series complete except for the couple that disappeared before we could grab them. Really enjoyed all of the caches in this series and the places that it took us. Thanks from D, HA and A B-A.
My third cache for the day to sooth my nerves. I looked in the wrong end at first but quickly got my hand on it. Not sure, but the hide might need replacing, it was broken. Also need a new log. Thanks.
After an unsuccessfully attempt at #1, approached this cache. Reading the title of the cache, saw the hiding place and quickly had the cache in hand. As I was signing and preparing to replace, a muggle dog surprised me and face kissed (licked) me.. on the lips!! Eww! Dog owner who was walking on the nearby path signaled an apology and I waved my thanks, waited for them to leave and returned the cache.
Can't say I've ever been dog kissed before... ever. Not an animal lover, sorry...

Excellent. A superb day here today. I managed to get this one without there being a single person or dog in this party of the park. A lovely place to escape the frenetic pace of the city folk.
A quieter section of the park allowed for a quick find. This is the seventh one of the series that au.fait and I have found. A most enjoyable walk, thanks for showing us these two parks Two Drews
Enjoying this well planned and well constructed series of caches. This one was no exception and was quickly found and signed in a quiet area of this park. TFTC Two Drews
Such great camo. After checking here first we widened our search area after reading previous logs and then came back to the original spot I thought. Lesson leant, look around, trust my instincts and next time I won't wear my faux fur vest to a dog park as all the dogs seemed to really really like me!! Geo son thought this was really funny and made me walk through twice.
Another well hidden cache.
You will need a new logbook soon as there is just one page left!

Well, this one was a bit more of a challenge. The garden bed had been cleaned up by parks staff and I thought they may have removed the cache. I eventually widened my search from GZ and then it was located. Another quality cache by Two Drews.
Found with Quiet1_au. My brother is a long time saints fan and often went here to watch the Saints. The playing ground looks much better these days but the stands have 'gone to the dogs' so the speak. There were a few dog walkers around this sunny but cool afternoon as we walked to Gz. Fortunately there was enough cover for us to look for the cache with the muggles passing by. Q found the cache quickly in what looked like the correct location. We logged and were on our way to the next. Thanks Two Drews

Out with G' of GJMMelb this afternoon, we parked in the carpark and then decided which one to tackle first - reverse order it was to be, this cache being closest and most likely to cause some trouble with access (no problem as it turned out). Approaching GZ, we had some dog-walking muggles to contend with but the GPS was good and lead us to the right place where I was lucky to pick the right side this time, and helped by the cache lying exposed (possibly missing half of it's camouflage?)... The cache was still safe though and after signing the log I replaced it, making sure it was out of sight this time. TFTC
Find #307
Came by on a windy Friday arvo complete with Geobaby in the pram to tackle the three caches in this park. Having done others in the series I was looking forward to these. This first one I found the trickiest and had me looking around some likely spots close by. Eventually I spotted it and despite the clever camo it shouldn't have taken me so long I feel. Next problem was I realised I left my pen int he car but as we made our way back that direction I found another partial pen on the ground and used that instead. TNLNSL and on to the next one. Thanks for the cache Two Drews.

Just like ahomburg I found this cache exposed, lying some distance from the gz coords. I placed it back where I believed it belonged and partly concealed it under some leaf litter. Thanks fir the cache =D

Find #3885
Streak: 299
Headed out tonight after work to continue on the streak and find another cache. Currently I am having to go a little further for these finds, but I sure am glad they are here. I found this one out in the open, I have placed it back, hopefully in the correct place.
Thanks to Two_Drews for placing this cache. TNLN

Found on a nice sunny afternoon. Surprisingly, a nice quick find - though clever camouflage had me questioning for a minute! Cheers for this little series
#383 @ 10:07AM On holidays from Sunshine Coast Queensland. Great camo. Found by our 8yo son. ~ TFTC Two_Drews
#213 @ 10:07 ~ On holidays from Qld & out grabbing some caches. Geokid found this before I even got there which is surprising as the hide was quite clever. TFTC Two_Drews
It wasn't where I thought it might be but it was found quickly. Nicely cammoed although some outer camo has fallen off. Still hides well.
Thanks Two Drews
Thanks Two Drews
Just time for a few quick caches in an area that I don't usually frequent.
No dog to walk today, but an empty park to search in.
Surprisingly quick find. Nice camo.
Thanks, Robmc.

Found today while out and about with the Geodog. We had dogs coming from us in all directions but we managed to out wait them all before I could make the find! GPS batteries also died just we were approaching GZ but we had plenty of time to wander around and spot what I was looking for. Signed log. Thanks for the cache Two Drews.
This has to Bethe busiest park in Melbourne. Took seconds to make the find; Ten minutes to get a muggle free moment to swipe it and sign it. Further five minutes pretending to be on phone to return it. Will have to try the others another day/time. Thanks for the cache!
First find as I circumnavigated the home of the Saints, but very little activity today. Well-constricted cache with good camo, but found it quickly. TFTC
Glad that the muggle activity was more sparse in this area as It made for a quick find. I'm starting to get anxious to see whether or not the better half has had any luck with "Water Widget". Signed the log and returned the cache so I could make my way back to our starting point. TFTC, Two Drews.
A nice stroll to GZ today and a quick find of that nicely camouflaged container. I also managed to return the pencil to the container after finding it lying on the ground.
A pleasant walk to the last of the three available caches in this area. A easy find once the gps settled.
Went for a early morning bike ride and cache hunt today. There were three caches that were fairly close together so I decide to do the sweep in reverse. This was the first one on my list. After waiting for a dog walker to pass on by. I went in to make the find. Nice camo and container. TFTC.
Spotted a good spot where this cache might be, sure enough it was there well hidden,
Thanks two drews [:x]
