Archive time

Found the zip tie and key ring but no cache attached to said ring and nothing on the ground

Found zip tie and ring. Container missing entirely. Checked ground, no sign

A nice cache

Was needing some supplies from the Big Green Shed in North Geelong as the Leopold one didn't have what we needed.

We picked up those supplies and were surprised to see significant construction happening next door.

While we were in this part of town, we popped out to see if we could find this cache.

It took us some time to find it, but eventually, we did. The cache is a little worse for wear.

Thank you for this Traditional cache Darth Briji

have no clue

Which I have done these caches when it first came out, but it's great fun now.

Nice quick find. Not sure if it was meant to be there though

Thanks for the cache

Thank you to all who have found this cache and enjoyed the Geelong Monopoly Series. I really enjoyed creating this series and loved reading the logs of those who left one. Sadly, I don’t have the motivation to keep this series maintained anymore therefore I will be archiving it over time as they disappear.
Thank you once again to all those who have found and enjoyed this series
Cheers,
Chris

Was looking in vain then read the attributes - TFTC
Bonus - soccer games as under way so I grabbed some hot chips.

Back out again with Rebel Acts looking for a few hides close to our caravan park, in particular some from the monopoly series.

We have now been in Geelong for just over a week and have really enjoyed the sights and the caching. We even got out this morning to complete a new Adventure Lab. The weather is a magnificent Autumn day so we are enjoying that.
There are some real quality hides, and polished cache containers. We are also regularly having difficulty finding some as we have come across quite a number of hides that we have not encountered before. Always good to see some new variety.

Found by Rebel Acts

My good friends Ski Pair were heading down to Geelong for a few days and invited Me to join them, who could resist being chauffeured around and the company and laughs are always good. We had a great time touring the area discovering new locations while finding caches,

Only managed a hand full of caches today as
I had to duck back up to Melbourne for an appointment.

Logs signed as RASP (Rebel Acts Ski Pair)

Thanks Darth Briji for the cache.

Interesting tree. Tftc

Quick find after work!! Very popular sporting facility so got in quick before it was full of muggles.

Thanks

Good one! Check out our YouTube channel to watch us struggle

Funny story...out early Sunday morning solo geocaching and decided to stop by this cache to see if the grass had been cut. It has. Easy path to GZ. However...the metal ring holding the geocache had rusted and to my horror, it broke!!! So, being the good problem solver I am, I fixed it with a keychain and a hair tie lol... Needless to say, I am now having a really bad hair day but the cache is secure for now. The CO might want to fix it. Leaving a favourite point because I had a lot of fun here. Thanks for the tree climb and TFTC

Went to find it today but the grass is so long and did not want to take the chance walking through the long grass to get to it being SNAKE SEASON the grass needs slashing

A little walk to the cache gave us a bit of a break from sitting in the car.
After A quick and easy find we evicted several earwigs from their house, grabbed the required info and got in our way.

There has been a good deal of effort and thought gone into this series, it appears.

TFTC

Only thing to do at tje moment is to take a walk for my allowed excursise and grab a secluded cache with no one around, used sanitizer before retrieving

Thought I’d get out the of the house for an hour on a lazy Sunday and do some caching. Had trouble navigating to GZ but once there cache was quickly in hand.

Good one!

Tftc

I actually got to climb this tree without injury! Tftc

Tftc

Night-caching with the bois.

Tftc

Tftc

Out for some night time caching. Looked like there was some sort of function going on in the club rooms. Found the cache quite quickly with the aid of some phone torches, signed and replaced as it was. TFTC

Stay in Geelong for the weekend. Day 2. Accompanied with theashleys7 for caching day to do the Monopoly series. Found it. Thanks The Monopoly Guy for bringing us here

In town for the flash mob events and have looked at this series for a while now and decides today was the day to complete it. Really enjoyed it TFTC

Yay for a tree climb!!!!

Very soggy under foot.

Tftc

Nice find

*3 Mar 2019, Found @ 1:07 pm, Find # 8971.*

Today I decided to make to trip to Lara to join in on the clean up but after that was done before heading home I decided to find some more caches in the area.
This one was on my list today as this one has a sad face on it for my which I needed to rectify so it was back to GZ for me.
I started looking around and was getting worried as I wasn’t seeing what I was expecting but eventually I spotted the downsized version, the log was signed shortly after.

**Thanks to The Monopoly Guy for placing this cache.**

Finally out this way and new dwelling in place.

New dwelling finally in place.

Fresh log signed: check
Hint collected: check
DNF converted: check
Todays streak find completed: check

But most importantly...
Nearly 17 months of unloved added to the collection: CHECK

Fortunately I had been procrastinating about what to do about today’s streak find. One email saying this one had been enabled and I was straight out the door. TFTC.

New dwelling is constructed. Just a matter of transportation to site

Dodgy tenants again. Eviction notice sent and builders on standby

I didn't read the last two logs and see when it was last found before heading over to GZ.
I did have a bit of a look around but nothing like the others was spotted and after reading the previous logs, I decided to make my way back to the car.

Nothing of the usual variety for this series spotted after a decent rummage around. Evidence in the area suggests the host has had multiple unnecessary amputations. Broadened the search area in case of a muggle dump & run, nothing sighted.

After 30min of looking reading other activities we gave up and walk away. Hopefully its still there

Found by Mary & David at 1606. Walked over to GZ from a nearby car park through rather wet grass. Spotted the familiar container after a short look around, and managed to retrieve it without much difficulty. Our thanks to Darth Briji.

Quick walk across the open space. Ducked into the bushes. Easy grab and sign. Another one down.

After several more along the G2Anglsea trail, and heading to Melbourne, a short diversion soon had this turned into a smiley and another clue gained TFTC Darth Briji

Good find

Caching in and around Geelong on the way to the Anglesea Mega event. Great fun with a range of types and even jagged some difficult and high terrain caches.

A quick grab

TFTC TNLN

Each time we visit Geelong we try to find some more caches in the Monopoly series. This was one of the caches for this trip.

Accurate coordinates led to a quick find in a good location. The cache was in good condition. Thanks Darth_Brijl for the cache.

A quick and easy find as we cache our way through the area today. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.

Out and about grabbing a few caches in the local area and this one was one we found easily.

Thanks Darth Briji for the placement.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one off the list

This was the last in the series for me. I started it in 2014 and have slowly picked it off when I've been in Geelong. After a bit of a look, the cache caught my eye and I soon had it in my grasp. Thanks for an excellent series Darth Briji, I've enjoyed all the caches and collecting the clues.

Was quite a cold day today, but we managed to find this anyway great spot, didn't know it existed. TFTC

Geodog has a bad case of conjunctivitis so we had to walk where no other dogs would be, so this one is far away from the crowd (even with a game on in the main field) so meet our contagious criteria. Gps was all confused so tracked down the right spot on the map instead. This is a very nice peaceful spot looking over the paddocks. Sat in the gum tree at the next corner to write log. TFTC.

High rise living and yes the pile of steaks makes access a little more difficult


Another find by the McPhail family

Yay! Bell Post Hill is back! Made 20% harder with big piles of discarded wood. Thanks heaps, Darth Briji.

Certificate of occupancy has been received and ready for more tenants.
Happy caching!

Certificate of occupancy has been received and ready for more tenants.
Happy caching!

Certificate of occupancy is almost complete. Just a little more red tape and the new dwelling should be ready for tenants

Under construction still

Aw, that sucks

Looks like another insurance claim to be made

Found a cable tie on a branch but nothing else

#97

Almost left without finding this one. Very tricky to spot. Made it to my next appointment just in time.

TFTC

Sorry about the late log. Found a few days ago as part of our 366 matrix. Headed over in the arvo and stand around looking like a weirdo hiding behind the bushes. Luckily their were no little kids around otherwise I may have ended up trying to explain myself. Finally I decided to face my fear and started climbing a tree. Once up I was able to see the little blighter.and then had to try to get down.

Log signed and replaced.

TFTC TNLN.

Found with TeamLauren. Thanks for the cache.

Wanted to grab this one to finish up the northern part of this series. Took a trackable to check out the local real estate, but only for a visit as it turns out! We're going to be a bit sad when his series is finished as we've really enjoyed the work that has gone into it

First time found this year
While I was, er, 'up' retrieving the cache I had a lightbulb moment of what these cache containers represented. Bit slow today...
Haha. TNLNSL TFTC returned as found

Great Hide! Found on the last day of 2015!!

This was entertaining to say the least! My friend and I being of the lazier ground dwellers we paper rock scissored to see who would retrieve the cache. Lucky for me it was her lol! Thanks for the cache Darth Briji!!

Nice find to help with seties

Grabbed on the way to Parent Teacher Interviews at school. We liked the challenge of this find and the fact that we didn't have to be as wary of muggles as we have with so many of the caches in this series. Tftc.

Got bamboozled here some months back by the seemingly inaccessible location. This time we approached via a different path and made our way to GZ where we spotted the goods and then had to retrieve which we did with a minimum of damage to ourselves.

No luck today, will try again next time. TFTH anyway.

Found another nice hide in this series ... Great container TFTC!

Found with Duffmmm at night. Didnt take too long to locate. TFTC

Nice one to find to start of our day out

Found it, tftc

Out with Rebel Llama today. Introduced him to the Monopoly series and now the competition is on... Who will find them all 1st? Hopefully I do, he is so competitive:)
TFTC

My first Monopoly find!!!!!
Narrowed in on GZ very quickly and than the real search began!
Lacinta gave a tip or two as she had previously found a few of Darth Briji Monopoly caches
But I was still the one that found it!!
Winning

TFTC and another series to work on

Not really a FTF but we are the first to sign the new log in the newly designed container. Hopefully this deisign will prove to be less muggled. Love the new design of the container BTW and a favourite point for it.
It took little while to spot it as being smaller branches were hiding it from certain angles. The Geomonkey I had with me scratched her arm while searching but that is part of the caching lifestyle I suppose. TFTC Darth Brijii

Replaced. Micro version of what you'd usually be looking for.

I'll check this cache out at the next opportunity. In the meantime I'm temporarily disabling the listing

Pretty sure this one has gone if the green wire on the ground was any indication.

Headed to Geelong for the second Friday in a row with Tess the geodog and Sorceysal to see if we could complete a couple of challenges, and grab a few more caches in this cache rich town.
This was another in the seires for me only, as SS had already ticked this one off.
Thanks again Darth Briji for another in this great series

Another step closer to solving the mystery

A lovely little stroll on a great autumn arvo. A quick find with get kid before dropping her off at guides. TFTC

Bit of a trek to get out to this one, fairly muggle safe I imagine! Tftc

Found by The Empire @ 2:05pm
One of many finds today, from the You Yangs then onto Geelong, chasing the final to the Monopoly series. Well, I found a carpark at the other cache nearby, there were greens keepers working on the grounds. I started walking towards the cache. I may cast a menacing shadow - read into that what you will. I think I interrupted some young love nearby. The cache was found, clue noted, all in order. Then I made my way back to the other cache, allowing the interrupted to continue. Thanks for the cache Darth Briji.

tftc

Excellent cache and hide! Here all the time for cricket didn't even think to look! Tftc

Tftc

Another colour bites the dust. Easy roll of the dice here. TFTCSL

Nice little pre breakfast stroll. T4TCSL

Never been up here before. Muggle golfer paid no attention and soon had the cache.

Found with Wozzle68 on a day of starting the MONOPOLY series of caches in Geelong and surrounds

TFTC

Down from Ballarat today to get a few of this series this was the first of the day and after out-waiting a muggle and his dog was soon located and signed. Thanks
