I think it's safe to say that this cache has been moved and is no longer there. Please fix this because we would love to finish this mini-series
Tricky but easy found it wait for compass to catch up didnt write as i had no pen
Geohubby had a seminar in town this afternoon and was catching the train from Melbourne after spending the morning at work. This of course would have meant a rather long walk home, so I decided to be magnanimous and offer him a lift home...to Geelong...which of course meant that I had the perfect excuse to spend the afternoon caching before he finished .
The weather wasn't exactly what I'd ordered, but it wasn't as wet as last time and the forecast snow hadn't arrived as yet so after a bracing coffee, I headed out.
This was find number four and the weather continued to hold. A quick look and I found this guy staring straight at me. I quickly signed the log and replaced the cache back where I thought it should be and in such a way that it wasn't so obvious.
Thanks lionjrb !

Found while having a lovely little walk in this "newly discovered area" even though we have driven past many times it was the first time we had walked around here, sneaky little hide, took a little while, but eventually found in-between dodging muggles, we had a clear space and grabbed cache. TFTC
sneaky little hide, discovered on a Caching journey around ballarat on the way home from geelong with Wildnic26, lovely area and great cache hide
Ballarat was our next stop on our meandering route from Adelaide to Melbourne to catch the boat back to Tassie. We spent a day caching in the area.
Despite the sun having set and we were caching by torchlight, accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a well hidden cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks lionjrb for the cache.

After being in Ballarat last w/e for Pi Day I decided to return but this time with the mountain bike to grab some of the various creek caches and other trail guys not that I mind walking but this seemed a better option.
Left the 4x4 and onto the M.B to do these three caches and on arrival it did not take long to spot as there were not many locations that you could hide a cache.
Thanks again lionjrb.

Took the grandchildren down to seek this one out but could not see it where it was supposed to be hidden. Disappointed, we were about to retreat when the 4 year old said: "What about over here..." I looked at the GPS and it had adjusted itself somewhat so we ventured over and had success at 4:40pm. SL TFTC The girls hadn't seen one like it before and were fascinated!

Suscoe and the rogaining sister were out and about today on a search for smilies.
This was our 12th find of the day.
A cool day followed us today.
Well after not finding this a while ago due to it being MIA, it was nice to find it at home today!
Log signed and on our way after we discussed the school of shopping trollies in the creek!
We wondered what they eat and if they breed here.
Thanks to lionjrb for placing this cache here.

Much easier than the previous find. A few muggles around so my shoe laces were tied and retied. The container isn't quite as snug as I think it would have been originally. Might need checking.

Continuing our stroll along here, we wondered what a gorignak is, almost a backwards kangaroo?

Find # 1848 @ 1932 H
Found with sharkiefan
Spending the weekend in Ballarat, decisions were made to hit the Buninyong area and see how many smilies we could rack up.
After the hot day we had a rest and then grabbed a couple more on the way to get tea.
I Moved the hide to check under it, only to soon be told it was in fact the hide it self

So found lots of caches with Sarrett and the kids. Accidentally left the kids hats at a nearby cache so I quickly picked this one up while picking up the hats!
A quick find at 1:35pm on a brisk walk along the track. Was starting to look a bit like rain so I was trying to keep moving. One more to get before heading back to the car and on to the Grampians.
thanks lionjrb

Tried this one a month ago, but turns out it must have missing. This time I had geokids 1&3 with me. When we got to GZ, the 3 of us all went to check what turned out to be the cache at the same time, so we all claimed the find for this one. Great camo. TFTC lionjrb and for bringing us along this trail.
After being offered a weekend caching to and from Ballarat with Tounga and Moneydork, how could I refuse[?]
Sushilord joined us too and for 3 days we laughed and cached and laughed and cached until we could cache no more. [|)]
As for the topics of conversation, apparently mirth, maniacal murder and mayhem were the common themes for the weekend along with a few other topics
My total for a great weekend was 1 event attended in Ballarat , 113 cache finds 7 DNFs and a FTF as I wound my way home, alone, in the early morning
Another quick find for us on a pleasant little walk

Found on the weekend attack on Mexican caches by a couple of Kiwis and a couple of Aussies, surprisingly there were no slayings although we talked a lot about maniacal murders along the way.
Thanks for the cache lionjrb.

We walked the Canadian Creek Trail from the Chinese Miners Memorial. Quite a lovely little walk. Thanks for the caches.
Found on a fantastic weekend away with Moneydork (Hero Husband), Locus Cache and Sushilord. It was not a quiet trip but oh so worth it! Lots of caching, lots of laughter and finally some sleep thrown in when we just couldn't carry on!
Thanks for your cache and helping make our weekend so great.

The goal was to clear Black Hill and surrounds.
Some great caches around here.
Thanks for placing them, cute hide here.

It wasn't as cold today and I liked caching using the sling again.
Thanks for placing the caches so I could get out and find them.

Spent quite a bit of time looking. I widened my search in case the coordinates were out. I studied past logs to see if I could get some hints, but went away empty handed.
Suscoe had no luck here today. we couldn't locate it, not sure what we were doing wrong.
Checked with some local knowledge and all roads pointed to Rome except Rome wasn't where it used to be.
Will keep an eye on this and hope to drop by again.

Found with DoorMatt during a lovely (freezing) day of adventuring and geocaching around Ballarat. This one was a quick and easy find. Had to be careful not to knock it off the edge into the creek! TFTC
Found on a day trip to Ballarat with the Geo-grandkids, after arriving at GZ the Geo Grandkids started their search while we kept watch. It was not long till the clever hide was discovered by or Geo Grand Daughter...... she was sooooo happy.
We were in Ballarat the day this cache was placed, but did not have the time to find it back then.
thanks to lionjrb for this cache.

Found with Eminor93 on a geocaching trip to Ballarat. A quick find for us, thanks for the cache.
A quick visit to Ballarat today to do a bit of shopping and with a couple of hours to spare, I thought I would find a few caches as well.
Another quick find between muggles. Would be a nice walk along here on a warmer day. Thanks for the cache lionjrb

Nice quick find after the short walk from the road, there was a pair of muggles in the backyard of a very close by house but somehow I managed to locate the container and retrieve the log without any torch assistance

This was a nicely constructed container. I enjoyed my walk along the trail here collecting the caches as I went.
Thanks for the cache.

This one a bit tricky - accidentally ended up in the creek. Retrieved it & completed log!!
Final find on my afternoon caching by bike adventure. Cache was quickly spotted and my mark made. Whilst I was filling the log a little kid came up and wanted to know how long it's take to walk to Geelong rd. I gave a estimate in minutes, only to be asked how long that was. I asked him if knew where he was going, and was assured that he did and with that he was off. Strange.
Thanks for bringing me here.

Out with the geokids this morning looking for some "hidden treasures". Nice find by Master 5. Thanks
Second time searching for this one, today it just appeared so easy, don't know why it was so hard the first time. Lots of muggles walking on this nice day. Thanks for the hide.
We found your cache Canadian Creek Trail: Gorignak as part of our goal to fill the calender, with this find another day is filled on 6/06/2014 6:32 pm. This is our find #3787 and find #1 today. Great cache, nice camo, nice quick find in the dark.
The cache is in good shape.
Thanks lionjrb for the cache!
Found by Mary & David at 0945. We had planned to do the BSRT caches today, but the rain brought about a change of plans. After a DNF at "Duck", we took the short walk to this one, where we had much better luck. Found the nicely hidden cache in the second place we checked. Our thanks to lionjrb.
Ninth find on a successful afternoon of short walk caches with geobuddy BJ. There are no TBs in this cache. Left a pathtag, TN. TFTC
