### **MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
A basic tenet of geocaching is that the cache log needs to be signed to record a find, see here; [Logging of All Physical Geocaches.](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#logging ) At the moment this would seem to be extremely difficult if not impossible to meet that requirement in regard to this cache.
Prompt attention by cache owners to any log that indicates anything could be amiss is greatly appreciated by all seekers. The guideline advises; ***"if you can't check/fix it straight away then Disable it till you can."*** see here: [Owner is responsible for visits to the physical location,](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance ) and here's how; [Temporarily Disable and Enable,](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235) also check out this Blog: [Helpful Tips To Keep In Mind As A Geocache Owner.](http://www.geocaching.com/blog/2015/03/you-hid-your-first-geocache-now-what/)
Please respond to this situation by **13th January** to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

When my muggle son asked if we could go and get some lunch and do a bit of geocaching I jumped at the chance. Nice easy find. TFTC
After paying a visit to some lost loved ones in the near by cemetery. Erin & I, decided to do some local caching in the area she grew up in and have a stroll down memory lane
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 despite the smell. TFTC
Whytknight nanton34 and I broke away from the event to collect more caches and this one was the first. It took some effort to reach under and grab this one, however we were certain its intended placement was not too far away where it was returned and hidden from plain sight. Tftc
Found with Nanton34 and Eighth Knox on a night out. It took quite a reach to get this cache and was returned as close as possible.
TFTC.
TFTC.
The placement of this one seemed odd and required a bit of effort to retrieve however whytknight was able to get it withe a little assistance from eighthknox and myself. Checking the pics we returned the cache to its intended hide. TFTC
Went out today for a couple of caches today found this on the way sneaky hide TFTC!
Got into trouble by the workers maybe move this off private property!! Also the guys were nice about this once it had been explained
New Years Day morning and it seems that not many people are up and about early, so this would be to our advantage and we'd cache towards Sandringham area.
This was a nice quiet one, easy to find and return, without the likelihood of being muggled. With the log signed, we were on our way to the next cache.

The third and final find made whilst out with the geokids for a brief late arvo treasure hunt in the area.
It was my turn to actually make the find this time, in-between looking inconspicuous-ish whenever a car passed by.
Signed the log, visited a trackable, and then it was time to head for home and dinner. Thanks for the cache, ethanh_11.

Interesting location, the monuments across the road would have cleared out the supplies of a granite quarry or three.. thanks..!!
Had to get a cache for our P366 tonight and we chose this one as our Friday night cache. Once we arrived at the coordinates a brief search discovered the cache and we happily log a smiley. TFTC
Out and about today doing some chores for MuggleWifeDoes and found myself down near the bay and a heap of unfound caches. Hmmm, what should I do.... Yeah, I need a fix...
Nice quick drive by, just got to find that little sucker. Ah, there it is.

A nice easy find in the early hours of this morning. It so still and no one around, a little bit spooky.
After climbing a nearby tree to drop off some Travel Bugs, I stopped by here for a quick park and grab.
Thank you for placing this cache, for us and others to find ethanh_11.

TFTC! The last of 3 found on a geodog outing. Not much of interest to sniff around here apparently! The wind was picking up and it was starting to get dark - plus being covered in ant bites (previous cache) and needing to relieve myself, had me honed in to finding this quite quickly! Muggle partner seems to have made a shift from "this is boring" to "you're so good at this now!" today! Nice. Interesting businesses around here. Thank you for bringing us here. My partner didn't even know there was a cemetery here - yeesh - has just about lived in the area FOREVER!
One of twenty found today during an afternoon bike ride. Cache in good condition, thanks.
No parking all along the street, but it was Sunday so we stopped. Very soon we were signing the log. Thanks ethanh 11
3.20pm Out and about with Echidna44 for the day., We picked the right day as the weather is just right and it seems to be a long time between searches. Having just retrieved one nearby this was the next one to checkout along the road. Not the most picturesque area to pick but someone thought so as we had company of a photographer with camera and tripod. We quickly made the retrieve from the strange location and moved on.
Thanks ethanh 11 for the hide

We had a few Archibald puzzles solved, so BettyBoo3747 and I did a bit of a caching run around Ricketts Point, grabbing the odd caches as we went though the area.
Where do you park in this street? I reckon the council must have spent a fortune on No Standing signs and posts!
Walked back to GZ, and stuffed around a while before locating the cache.
Thanks, Robmc.

# 7418. Robmc and I had intended to go snorkelling with guinea pigs down Ricketts Point way today but awoke to some light rain and a grey windy day so converted it into a caching run down along the Bay.
We sure did have trouble with all the NO STANDING signs around these suburbs today. The hint did lead us astray a little but with other cachers saying how easy it was I figured we were making hard work of it. I changed the search area and yes it is an easy find.
Thanks ethanh_11

Very easy find. Took me less than a minute to have the cache in my grasp. TFTC!
After finishing my work commitments for this visit I had some time left over for getting out and about and finding some caches. I had a great time with a good variety of cache types and hides. This was the first cache I found today. Coordinates good so after a quick look around I spotted the cache. TFTC, Biggles.
Never knew there was cemetery in Sandringham. God bless those who are resting here x TFTC
On a little caching run with newbie geodaughters and found some nice hides in this area. Thanks to the owners for placing these caches.
Find #680
I had just an hour to spare in the afternoon so managed to swing down to Cheltenham avoiding all the Xmas shoppers at Southland. Wasn't aware of either the cemetery or the rubbish depot down here so it was interesting to head down this street. Took me a little while to zone in on GZ but once I did the cache was spotted. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited a TB that I picked up in the city last week. Thanks for the cache ethanh 11. I'm getting close to the end of unfound caches down this area though they have lasted me a good while.

#100!! How exciting! A proper milestone. This was a very, very quick and easy find- with the help of the pictures! Thank you!
Out on a Sunday evening bike ride, on my own today, good to get out an get some fresh air. Tftc

Started the day with two DNFs on solved puzzles - frustrating!! I then went to Monash but had to park quite a distance away as I didn't have change for the visitors parking!! Ah well, exercize is good. I found most of the ones I looked for and got a feel for the campus where my daughter is currently staying for 6 months. I then picked her up and we went off to Lysterfield National Park where we walked around the lake and saw lots of roos That was one of my goals while here in Australia!! I then dropped her off and made up my numbers with some cache finds nearer to my hotel. This one wasnt' where I was first looking but I got it!

A nice easy find Today, But getting it, to sign log was a different story, a bit of Nature lying a round helped me, TFTC.
Suscoe's 24th find of 28 for today as we worked our way around some of the bayside suburbs.
Today was a delightful day with a gentle breeze and filtered Spring time sun.
A nice quick find here for us this afternoon.
Thanks to ethanh11 for placing this cache.
A nice little hide.

Farewelling loved ones or dropping off rubbish, I guess it depends on which side of the road you choose and for what or whom.... An unusual find, thankfully I have small hands, and was well covered by Kato Potato relocating the car cleverly. TFTC ethanh_11.
After searching the wrong side of the road for a bit the final gz was discovered. Bit of fancy armwork on kyabbott's behalf and the cache was in hand. Tftc
Yes. Good co-ords. Easy find. Had a bit of a look through the cemetery. I live just around the corner and drive by here at night a lot and like the lights they have on the graves.
Well I was more interested today in the rubbish side of things than the departed. The cache was soon found when I read the clue.
Cheers

A sneaky little hide on a cold, dark night. Don't expect the votive candles on the graves to light your way!
MasterIschi and Arthur and Dent went on another epic cache run. We collected 26 of 26 caches including 3 multi and an earthcache. We want to thank all cache owners since we a great time down there.
