I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

I am No longer in the area so if someone could put a new container there it would be great. It seems like a great stop to break up the boring drive

A swung by this cache as I was passing and the area has had a complete makeover with all the bottlebrush trees cut right back and the area covered in woodchips. It's actually looking quite nice! The cache is definitely gone!

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Unfortunately, there's been no response from the CO to my NM log dated 12/6/19. Subsequent logs would indicate the area has had a makeover and the cache has been removed. Time to bring this one to the attention of a Reviewer.

Assumed it’s not there because the bottle brush’s are cut down

They've cut down the trees and plants and probably took the geocache

Unfortunately there was no sign of this cache looking at the hint left by Calypso62. There was very fresh much in the area, a couple of rocks near the electricity box and no cache. While we were looking some council workers pulled up so we moved on, they were doing gardening and spreading much. Our assumption is they found it and tossed it.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

It was found just lying there! When I opened the cache I found the contents wet and smelly. This one needs some TLC by the CO. I left the cache next to the electrical box under a couple of rocks.

Time for some maintenance on this cache as per my "Found It" log.

Yaaay!! I'm off on my Brisbane trip. Sad to be leaving my lady and her kids. I shall have to cheer myself up with geocaching ...

I've done some pocket queries and some research on the results. I'm trying to meet lots of targets for Professor Rapidly Wild's UGC series at home, so I'm seeking :

Two caches placed in 2000 - One found so far
One cache placed in 2001 - One found so far, target met
119 caches of size "Regular" - Forty-eight found counting this one
20 caches of size "Large" - Eighteen found so far
One letterbox in Qld - Two found, target met
One letterbox in NSW - Two found counting this one, target met
One cache placed on 18 June of any year - Two found, target met

Any puzzles and multicaches I can reasonably find. (Five puzzle caches, two multi cache)

I've located enough caches to find on this trip on this trip to complete all but the last target. So we'll see how I go.

I'm on my way home. I left three days ago, and stopped in Tweed Heads, then Coffs Harbour and now Port Macquarie. I'm sneaking up on my fiancee. We are missing each other. I've left a little earlier than planned, and I'm telling her I'm getting back Wedbesday, but planning Tuesday as a surprise. It worked well, too. I'm heading for the northern outskirts of Sydney today, by easy stages. This was my fourth for the day. It was an easy find. The dogs and I had another rest break and a short walk.

Day 1, Monday - 12 in total, including five "Regular" sized caches.
Day 2, Tuesday - 16 in total, including one "Large" and eight "Regular" sized caches
Day 3, Wednesday - 21 in total, including thirteen "Regular" sized caches and one Qld letterbox
Day 4, Thursday - 4 in total, comprising four "Regular" sized caches and one Qld letterbox
Day 5, Friday - one, to keep my streak going.
Day 6, Saturday - one, to keep my streak going.
Day 7, Sunday - one, "Regular", to keep my streak going.
Day 8, Monday - one, to keep my streak going.
Day 9, Tuesday - one, to keep my streak going. Day 324, target 366.
Day 10, Wednesday - 8 in total today, six "Large" and two "Regular"
Day 11, Thursday - 16 in total today, two "Regular", three puzzle, two multi caches.
Day 12, Friday - 5 in total today, two "Large", one placed in 2000, two placed on 18th June.
Day 13, Saturday - 7 in total today, one placed in 2001, two "Large" and five "Regular"
Day 14, Sunday - 11 in total today, five "Regular", six "Large", one puzzle.
Day 15, Monday - 6 in total today

Find #2642
We're off to South West Rocks for a family weekend, so after having driven past here on numerous occasions with 'something else' to do, we decided today to pull off the highway and grab this, and the hide took longer than I would admit to.... Maybe we should have pulled off on one of our trips in milder weather, today at nearly 40 degrees it was pretty ordinary.... TFTC.... the cache needs a refresh - the logs are quite worn out/full and damp.....

Tyftc..took shell left card. Found with Cached Up Mummies

Found with CacheMonkeys

Stopped here on the way to Brisbane from Sydney A nice quiet spot to stretch, away from all the holiday commuters TFTC

Didn’t put too much effort into this one. Lots of nettles bad bees. Maybe in winter

Found with girlfriend 4:53 pm. We had gone up the coast to Port Macquarie now on the way back to the Central Coast. But as usual I want to find if possible caches along the way. This came up on the radar. This cache though still took a bit of time to locate and finally I spotted something.
Down low I got. Signed the log and then returned the cache to it’s hide spot. I dropped off a toy ring into the cache. Now onto the next one nearby.
Thanks for the cache.

It was getting late so had to keep moving north.

We have travelled up from Sydney’s Northern Beaches to Port Macquarie for our annual summer holiday, camping in our Jayco Swan Outback camper trailer at the Breakwall (Sundowner) Holiday Park. With our Port Macquarie holiday now over we were all packed up and back on the road heading for home in Sydney, but planned on stopping along the way for a few more roadside caches. This was our 2nd find of the day, and 134th find of the holiday.

it was time for a driving break, and a cache, so we pulled off the highway for this one. We all searched for a while but it was geoson#1 who eventually made the find and had CIH. The rest of us spent far too much time at the wrong hint items. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC its_jono.

Took a bit to locate this cache - we thought (like most caches we found) that it would be a little bit buried. But when found we took a little “Australia Day” bottle cap key ring.
