Day 13 of my interstate trip. Today I left Burrumbuttock which was a great donation camp site and continued north and made it as far as Oura which is East of Wagga Wagga which is where I set up camp for the night. I managed to find 23 caches today and ended up with a bad day for DNF's with 7.Seen these "Brownlow" caches on the map while planing my journey but this is the only one I managed to get along my journey.TFTC Aussie Fun Seakers
Out and about today exploring the area with Grannan55 and Geodogs. Back to turn this frown upside. On our way home from the Rock where we have been for a week. All good here. Now, onto the next one for the day. TNLN TFTC
I went to Walla Walla and checked this cacheHave placed a new one there it is a clear screw top containerI hope it lasts now
I will have to disable this cache until I can check it out sorry for the inconvenience
No good today, had a good look around, should have been fairly straightforward. We will be back. TFTC
Time for a lap of cache finding glory
And at the half way point, the goal was reached.
A search of GZ soon revealed the prize
The fat lady has sung ...
... so it was back to the geomobile for the drive to camp

We travelled down from the boarding school and found it great find. From Jack, Ned, Clancy, Ryan, Will, Henry, Cameron.
Wahoo found it.
So out for another car show, and thought would try my luck again.
It is almost 12months since I was last here looking.
So now got to turn on the happy face.

I will disable this cache for awhile as i cant get there with the covid lockdowns
Well out for a car show, wandered over. We looked high,low dug out all the bark.after 30min of looking called it. So it's an unhappy face for now.
Just out grabbing a few smilies as we were in the area this afternoon for a Sunday drive and followed our gps as we toured around. This one eluded us though and even after an extensive search still came up empty handed, never mind will try again next time we are up this way.

In Albury for a week and made a morning of it in Walla Walla - pretty town. My last one before leaving this area, and a nice simple find in a good spot around the back. I have enjoyed my morning here.
Thanks Aussie Fun Seakers for entertaining me at this location.

We wheeled in here about as ninja as you can be in the big soccer mum car, and made our way to GZ where we found a nice bit of shade on this warmish day.
Dad snuck over for the quick find and sign so as not to attract attention from the family over yonder, and then rehid the cache with a bit more cover.

Quick and easy find, few muggles about but i parked my car in a special way and nobody knew a thing!!. Thanks for the cache. All looks to be in good order!
Found with Cybergran V.
You know, I have no idea how many of these Brownlow Medal caches are out there.
I must be getting close to having them all though cos by crikey I have visited a lot of footy grounds hunting them.
The cache was found to have slipped out of its hidey hole but after signing was returned in good nic to its obvious spot. [8)]

In Walla Walla for a tree climbing expedition this cache was more to my style of geocaching!
An easy find, another Brownlow added to our collection, smiley faces on our maps, a bonus for dalerious and I, thanks Aussie Fun Seakers.

So after resting up for most of yesterday after our evacuation from the fire-devastated Corryong district, I felt enthused enough to come out fro a walk around Walla Walla to see the sights while M stayed in the caravan enjoying the air conditioning. This cache was an easy first find for the day.

Suscoe headed out early today to explore the area up around Culcairn.
We had heard that there were some interesting caches to find.
The day was going to be warm and the car temperature got to 33 degrees as we wandered the roads of this area.
Skies were blue, a bit of wind to go with that and generally quiet roads to navigate.
Thanks to Aussie Fun Seekers for this hide, we have found a few of these over the past few years.

The time has finally arrived for a massive Australian road trip with The Kiwi Chicks. We are GraciesGPSfun , thedbees , Ethness, Infoferret , Jude_E and me Nosynel. We might sometimes sign the geocaches as KCs or TKCs.
Sadly there was no large event in New Zealand in 2019 but there are a few Mega events planned in Australia. New Zealand will have another large event in 2020 in Auckland.
======== NZ Mega 2020 ========
Planning for the NZ Mega 2020 event is well underway. It will be held in Auckland over Labour Weekend, 23 to 26 October 2020. Thanks for hiding this geocache.

We enjoyed a day of caching from Culcairn thru' Morven & Gerogery to Walla Walla & return. It felt as if every DR and TR was covered at some point, so many creative, sneaky or just plain bold hides. Dedicated CO's have placed for geocachers to find or sometimes walk away from in frustration.
Yes, another vote on our Brownlow tally.

Found at 1:03:00 PM with Roostaman.
Out for a drive with Roostaman to find a few more in the Culcairn area. A nice day for a drive with the bonus of some geocaches.
What a great spot this would have been to have camped at. Very reasonable prices too. The cache was a good hide away from the prying eyes of campers.

This Medal was named after Charles Brownlow and use to bare his full name and is awarded for the Fairest and Best player in the AFL competition each season. Geelong star Edward “Carji” Greeves was the first winner in 1924.
During the War years the voting was suspended, and only 4 players have every won it 3 times. The largest winning margin for the votes was in 1977 in its 50th year with Graham Teasdale of South Melbourne receiving 59 votes, then 2nd Kevin Bartlett Richmond 45 votes, that is a big margin.
It was an easy find, and in good condition. Found it, signed it, replaced it, now logged it.

Tuesday a mate and I went 4x4ing at Yaks hills in then heat and dry. Today, the opposit..... Went solo in the Thunderstorms, cool and wet in the open flat farmlands. I decided going to this area for some previous DNF's. Often said I'd get this one day, and I did, and I did, and I did. Thanks Seekers
Murray River December 2018. I headed away with Fitzy_1965 for a weekend caching towards the Murray River near Corowa. We targeted a few series and as many DNFs from previous trips as possible. We did of course generate even more this time, but overall had a great time despite a sharp thunderstorm on Sunday morning. The ground we being prepared, but we had a clear run to get this one.
Thanks.

###**CACHE OWNER PLEASE NOTE**###

This cache is carrying a Needs Maintenance attribute, but it would seem to have had some action on behalf of the CO by a good Samaritan 'Go Grandys ', so it fortunately lives for another day.
However, there still remains the issue of the 'Needs Maintenance' attribute, which should be removed by the cache owner.
You need to post an "Owner Maintenance" log - see here; [**Remove the “Needs Maintenance” icon**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) so that the Needs Maintenance attribute is removed.
Because of the 'Needs Maintenance' attribute, it is still appearing on my listings - **I've removed it for you this time.**
Your prompt attention to any log that indicates things could be amiss will be warmly welcomed and appreciated by all seekers, and your future assistance in this aspect of geocaching will be greatly appreciated.
###Please remember that failure to keep the cache page up to date (as well as maintain the physical cache) can result in the cache being de-listed.###
We would like to thank go Grandys for checking on our cache while they
Are in Walla Walla.
So cache is all good to go again.
