This was cache #100 for us! Nice little milestone so far. The geofamily and I had some time to kill, so thought we'd get a few finds in, after a quick team effort, no one was fooled, signed the log and were on our way! TFTC
Found It.....Found this one while on a return trip from dropping off supplies to the Wildlife Shelter down at Barwon Heads after the Surfcoast Fires. On arrival at G.Z. the Geo Hubby had to wait out the traffic and make a dash under the sign only to realize in his haste he forgot a pen so after the said writing tool was handed over the cache was located and signed. Thanks LibzHat for the cache
On a geocaching road trip. Enjoying the area and variety of caches.
Thanks for adding to the enjoyment of this trip.

Not fooled by anything here except the hint itself! Would have been straight on it, but searched in all the wrong places first after reading it. Eventually found it anyway, but took too long and ended up being visited by someone from the race course who was driving by. After explaining geocaching to him, he insisted that the race club had nothing to do with anything of the sort, and wasn't happy until we assured him it was to do with the show grounds instead. Quickly signed the log and returned. Off to pick up the girls and do a few more caches.
Three down 2 to go for my P366.
Needed a cache find today. I was at the nearby Geelong show and afterwards ducked here for a smiley.
Nice and quick find it was too.
No muggles in my sight.
Interesting to see how many got wheel clamped by the sherriff in the car park.

All was quiet at GZ so we grabbed the opportunity to locate the cache.

Dear Libzhat, Thanks for the hide and info. We were in the area narrowing in on our 400th find and this provided a good start to the day. GeoBen found this one quite quickly. Thanks and kind regards, The Famous Geo 5.

Have had this one on my to find list for a while but just never managed to get here.... Today was the day.... This cache would be impossible at show time.... TFTC
Much easier attempting this one when there wasn't an event on. Parked nice and close to GZ and used the car as cover for the retrieval. TFTC
Nice quick stop on a beautiful Sunday geocaching detour. Didn't get many today, but it is always nice to get a couple more smilies on the map

What a fantastic showground $22.00 a night camping, we will be back to do the rail trail. Thanks for the cache.
Took us a while to find as the hint threw us off a bit. Or maybe we had misinterpreded it.
TFTC this was our last for the day as we had now walked 11 kms along the rail trail.

Camping at the showgrounds for a few days so we wandered out to find this cache. TFTC
Ah caching at it's best when the day is getting close to the end, being able to stay in the car while the Mrs quickly finds the cache gotta love these. Thanks LibzHat for the cache
While completing the Monopoly series did a quick detour to get this one quick find. TFTC
We picked this cache up at 4:26pm. We were driving past on our way to the last cache in the Monopoly series, and we could help but stop and hunt.
Thanks for the cache LibzHat.

We had just finished perusing the nearby market, when I thought I would do a quick search for any nearby caches. We chose this one as was a bit further away from muggles than a few others in the vicinity. Accurate co-ords led to a quick find. TFTC Libzhat.
I seem to have missed logging an entire caching trip, and this is one of the caches visited by Team Packetstorm and myself. My apologies for the late log.
We had not had much luck at the cache up the road, so it was nice to find this one instead. Thanks to LibzHat for the cache.

After driving past an unavailable cache just slightly more up the road, TI08 and I stopped in at this cache.
Its amazing how many times, and for how many reasons i have been through these gates.
Last time was for the caravan and camping show where I ended up very sunburnt
Had no problems locating and signing this cache.

We set a task to find at least a Cache a day for the whole month of July.
As we are new to Geocaching, (logging our first cache on 23/6/14) and not having many smiley faces on our map and a longer list of DNF due not much experience in what to look for. So this month we aim to add more smileys to our map.
a quick find.
thankyou

Very quiet when I came through here. A quick scout about and I had your cache in hand. I was doing the cycle trail caches so this was a diversion from there.

Found with trailrunning on a trip to Geelong to clean up around 50 for the day/night, we did a few aound Melbourne on our way out and back as well, some Quality caches were found tonight. Thanks LibzHat for the cache.
It's the Monday of the Queen's Birthday weekend and Rebel Acts and I want to travel to Geelong to clean up all the caches north of the Barwon River. While we were not successful in getting them all we were able to find 50 caches at a rate of 1 cache every 10 minutes. We also had a chance meeting with Ballarat team HIGHROD just before they left for home.
On a few occasions we used the help of the self-proclaimed Geelong Geocaching HQ (Bushfire) to help us along the way. While the weather was cold, the pace was enough to see me caching in a t-shirt for most of the day and night, until the fog descended of course.
Co-ords had us at the other end, but soon found.
A great time was had and some really good caches discovered. Thanks to the CO's for their efforts. We will return..

My main objective of this trip was the WWFM IX event in Geelong at ridiculous o'clock. Now the main event was over, it was time to explore Geelong.
A nice easy drive-by between the surprising amount of traffic passing by at this time of morning. Thanks for the smiley, LibzHat.

A nice quick find at GZ today using the clue as there was no muggle action in the area.
In Geelong today for the flash mob events and caching with Glanville Girls, Beckster22 and Tomstache.

After a DNF at the previous location I thought I'd come back to put a smile to this one.
Arrived at GZ to find the attendant changing the dates on the sign, so I waited till he moved on, with spot on coords the cache was found.

In the fading light we immediately spotted something a little odd which thankfully turned out not to be the cache as it wouldn't have lasted very long. A quick look around and the actual container was spotted. Thanks to LibzHat for the cache.
[font=Comic Sans MS]What do you do when you have a good weather forecast for Saturday? You plan a day caching out here . Square Pegs and I left Melbourne at sunrise this morning and stopped here to have a look for the cache which was found with accurate co-ords and in good condition. After finding a red herring and trying to open it we realised that we didn't have the cache so we had another look and there it was!
Thanks LibzHat for making this an enjoyable day exploring.

I had to rethink this one a little and find a more suitable spot as it had been muggled a few times. It should be all safe at its new home.
Have had to disable this as it has been muggled. Will have to rethink how this is hidden to stop it being muggled.
A DNF for me as well.
It was getting dark and the local home owner asking if everything was ok as I looked around.

Found with Bogonghazy whilst in town for a long weekend, picking up our new Caravan, testing it out before heading to OzMega, and attending the Puzzle Solving Event as well. Thanks to LibzHat for another of your hides this weekend. BH spotted this one quickly enough. Cheers, and Thanks, Lisa
Sully1 and I had come to Geelong to pick up a new van and to attend the Puzzle Solving Event on the Friday night. We grabbed a few caches this morning while Sully practiced towing the van around and trying to avoid any backing. Another well blended in cache, thanks again Libzhat
Pretty darn good coordinates, meaningful difficulty/terrain ratings and a quick find of a well disguised container, albeit one I've seen quite a few times before, got that smile back on my face at 09:20 and that alone is deserving of a fave point.
TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks LibzHat.

Another glorious day on the Bellarine, so why not a bit of geocaching! It's been great having a whole lot of caches at or back door that we can slip out and do as and when we want, but that luxury has come to an end as we finished off the G2Q.
This one was also on our radar so we picked it up as we headed back down the trail to our geo-vehicle.

Found! Was out today in the 42 deg heat after dropping my other car off to get the windows tinted, perfect timing. A quick stop by here to find cache quickly. Interesting container, have to give this one lots of credit, haven't found one like this yet. Geofamily stayed in car about 30m away. Quickly signed, plenty of cars going past.

Slink1 and I decided to tackle the Bellarine Rail Trail this weekend so with minimal preparation we decided to pack up the car and head off to Geelong. We set off and enjoyed the variety of hides and as with all caching some presented more of a challenge then others. We completed most of the trail but had to give it away when the light left us. We tackled the remaining few in the morning. Thanks to LibzHat for the care and effort in placing these
Another weekend in sight with Dunko and I discussing possibilities, the Bellarine Rail Trail was
mentioned as a what if and sounds like fun. Winner! so Saturday morning we set off, arrived at the mid trail point as a starting location with the idea of heading to Queenscliff then if all went well go back towards Geelong such a great mix of challenging caches along the way and are a credit to the cache owners. A big thank you to LibzHat for the effort and placement of this cache

[Had a really good look with my kids around] the flower garden where the red letter box is, [but couldn't find it. Will go back and search another time.]
Have replaced the log so all good to sign now. Could people please make sure they remember how this cache is placed and put back together the way they found it. Thanks LibzHat
On the way past and just time for a quick cache or two. This one was nice and easy for caching eyes. Loggy is soggy and could be replaced. Thanks Libzhat
