With nicer weather we decided to go for a drive and find a few caches within my 30KM radius. There was break in the traffic and I drove past it slowly and the wife spotted it. I parked nearby jumped out and grabbed it and took it back to the car to sign it. Then dropped it back in its spot when there was another break in the traffic. TFTC
Tricky one to grab. No parking anywhere... Either need to be dropped off or walk it in. TFTC

Day 4 of our Australian holiday. 11 of the geoart caches were found last night. 44 to go today. Fingers and toes crossed that I can find them all. Solving them was a heap of fun.
S slight detour. After getting hot and bothered.

All that glitters might not be gold in the late afternoon sun. With the generous hint it was a quick park and grab. TFTC
Interesting area, with what I think we’re long haired goats in the fields. As we were not supposed to stop, I stayed in the car while oldmorty got out to grab the cache. Very generous hint for the park and grab. TFTC CDM261
Favourite point here for three reasons... I’ve always wondered what was down this road, I think the title of this cache is really clever, and because I really liked the furry goats. They were cute and plentiful.
This was my 8th find for the day and on Easter Sunday, I reckon the odds were higher than 50. Or should that be lower? Anyway with the great clue, this was a quick sign and go mission so I can find more caches.
Thanks for the fun

Rapidlywild suggested we head up to the Oz Muster event when it was first published, so between us and a few others we set out to solve the puzzles around the area, not that we got to all of the ones we solved, what a shame we will have to return one day to collect them when the mosquitos are not as active.
We had a great time over the weekend, grabbed lots of caches and met some fellow cachers,
Thanks Rapidlywild for another enjoyable geoadventure.venture.

Found after chasing down the OZGM trail with Darksidedan. This place sounds like a bundle of laughs, lots of NO, you're not allowed to do anything - except cache.

Its GeoMuster time around the Lake Mac. Been planning to attend this one for a while and was happy to see it get Mega status. Very enjoyable weekend away with FurfacesLL #1 and catching up with so many different cachers.
After a big day yesterday, we were up and ready for another day of geocaching
After attending the flash mob, we headed south towards Cachentine series and finished them off, then we drove around collecting some other caches.
No issues locating this one
Thanks for the cache hide CDM261 its been a fab weekend!

Quick find while at mega. Thanks to those who placed caches even if they are bloody puzzles and thanks to those who helped with the answers.
Came back today as yesterday was getting very hot and we were getting tired. What a beautiful calm area to be. Driving thru with the cute little goats nibbling fresh grass, everything was so well maintained. Drove thru to Sanitarium Buildings.
Thanks CDM261 for another hide.

This was found yesterday morning on my way to the Mega event. All set for a wonderful weekend of caching fun. I was not able to log this yesterday as I had an accident at cache in Rathminesband spent the evening in hospital. I'm find just a badly sprained ankle. But that ended my weekend and I'm going yo be on crutches for at least a week. I'm so glad I found all the caches I want to before the accident. I should have just call it quits but there bloody saying 'just one more cache '. Thanks for all the hard work putting these caches out.
Found while out and about at the Geomuster, after grabbing some lunch from a nearby shop. Parked where I shouldn't have probably but I wasn't going to be long and it was a quick find with the hint, before signing and replacing. Thanks CDM261.
At the showground for the Mega, 1st day of the event. out for a few more caches.TFTC
First day of the GeoMuster.. Left Austpark at the station to travel to the Royal Easter Show. Started gathering caches on the way back to the Muster. This was one.

Today while at the OzGeoMusster we decided to put our bikes to good use, we loaded Mac into the basket and headed off for a morning of geocaching fun. We found this cache while enjoying our ride, I think because it was Good Friday it was extremely quite, not a vehicle or person in sight.
thanks CDM

Last cache for the evening out during the mega event. The cache was spotted very quickly. We are assuming that security may have seen us but they did not come a bother us.
Thanks for the hide CDM261.

Against the odds we went and found this cache, and a herd of angora goats. StueyGow showed us a funny video of scared goats dropping to the ground in a sudden faint. Made me think of 'Cars' movie. TFTC CDM261
Just arrived in Morrisett for the Mega so took the opportunity to grab a few with Di Morgan this morning before unpacking and taking it easy. A busy area today but didn't stop us from making this quick little hide.
Thanks CDM261 for placing the cache for us to find.

We are now camped at Morisset for the Geo Muster at Easter with our interim caravan.
Today we travelled some backroads away from all the traffic and chaos.
Pretty good as it turned out - noone and nothing much to bother us at all.

Found while on first full day at Morisset for the OZ Mega/Muster 2018 which will be held over the Easter Weekend. This was a quick Drive By for me. Managed to get a big enough break in the traffic to get it found. TFTC.
We have arrived at Morisset for the Mega and today found a few caches in the area with Gullivers Travels54 and this was one of them.
An easy find at GZ.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

WOOHOO - I found it! Attended meetings here for most of the week & decided to stop and grab this one on the way back out. I attended AVONDALE & worked here for years as a Pastor at the College Church. It’s always good to come back to visit. Nice quick & easy find without being spotted. TFTC
We are heading from Brisbane to Bright in Victoria, caching as we go, wherever it is safe to pull up with the caravan. We left Brisbane on 3rd Jan and don't have to be in Bright til the end of the month. Today while we are camped at Morisset we checked out a few more caches.
I reckon the odds are 50 50. Not easy to park, but we managed it find, sign and get out of there... thanks CDM 261

The odds definitely in my favour today. Pulled up about 6m from GZ. One muggle walking in the heat to wait to pass then it was CIH. Clear log! And more unloved days to add to my total. TFTC
Checked this cache today.
Couldn't find the cache where it was supposed to be... searched around and found it under leases and dirt on the ground.
Replaced the log and replaced the cache where it was supposed to be.
Happy hunting...

Since it was such a nice morning decided to walk here from the swinging bridge and do the entire loop around Avondale. This was the next stop after the Boys Walk. Saw lots of goats in the surrounding paddocks. Cache was spied easily but there seemed to be a never ending stream of cars coming into campus. A quick grab and sign then wait to quickly replace again. TFTC
Nice quick find, magnet getting weak. Collage closed to day so no muggles. TFTC
Find #1069
With a return to work looming tomorrow, we decided a quick cache or two and some sightseeing with Dad/Pop around the Watagans was in order. We ended up with five finds, no DNFs, and a couple of leads for our next trip.
Samuel nailed this one before I even got close.... log rather hard to get back into the cache....

A lovely walk along the path and a quick find . Some very healthy Angus bulls in the northern paddock. Reminds me of my parents old farm. TNLN TFTC
Found this one quickly, I have driven past this cache for years! Glad to of finally found it on such a nice day.
“I now have my own account and I am logging this old find under my new username.”
Well the odds were that I did in fact find this one! About time I picked up a few of the more local ones I thought.
I don't attend the nearby college but I have been here many times before. Didn't say hello to any passing cars but they were actually few and far between at my chosen time of the day which was a nice surprise. After finding the cache in the first (sneaky!) place I looked, I sat back in the car to sign before returning it. Mind you, it wasn't until I hopped out of the car that I noticed we'd parked right near the "NO PARKING ANYTIME" sign! Had a bit of a chuckle to myself and then made sure to make the process extra speedy as to get out of there without being questioned. I think that parking down at the free carpark to the left of the boom gates shortly down the road and walking up to GZ would be a much better option.
Thanks so much for this sneaky little cache with a great hint and for bringing me back to somewhere I haven't been in years
