A quick stop after the previous Overpass cache. Didn't look like much going on in the showgrounds but the campers were in and out like anything. Good hide, TFTC
Reperio 12:51Day 2 of our trip to Wagga Wagga, and Master Vitruvius and I camped out a Oura for the night. Given it was a weekday, we stayed out of the city area until later in the day, and instead went searching for caches out of town, most of which were nice drive by caches.We moved on to the Pub Crawl series, following with some W2T and T2W caches, and then a host of other caches along the way before heading back into Wagga Wagga to camp for the night. A great day of caching.Gratias RoostamanAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. Wending our way towards Canberra for the Mega. After completing some chores we looked for the nearest cache and with it being so close we wandered on over with a glass of wine in hand. Those trees are prickly TFTC Roostaman
Was a warm one, but we wandered to the shops and grabbed this on our way. Good spot, cheers cobber.

After doing our days logs, I noticed that we needed just one more to even out the numbers, luckily this one was only 80mtrs away.

A quick find while visiting from Canberra. I remember that there used to be a cache inside the show grounds commemorating the Chico Roll. TFTC
Returning from our "unplanned alternative to the QLD mega" holiday in the New England area, we made it to Wagga Wagga last night, and stayed at these showgrounds. So it was great to have a cache to help us navigate here TFTC Roostaman.
Nice camo. A little on the damp side after the rain, which was great to see. Dried container out as good as I could, Co signed ICW Geo Buddy, Mystic Seer. TFTH TFTC. Replaced as found ready for the next Geo Adventurer. Thanks Roostaman for this cache.
Excellent cache. Cache was damp due to the recent rainfall. Found with Geo Buddy, Chippyddd. Travelling around the country-side. This reminds me of the Bebe Ammo can from Sydney. No room for swaps or drops. SL TFTH TFTC. Replaced as found ready for the next hunter. Thanks Roostaman.
Not this time but I’ll be back for a better look.

Thanks for the cache. Had me looking for ages, and almost gave up until i started poking around and found the cache. Wow thats one awesome job at some camo. All looks to be in good order.
TFTC! Great hide, lucky I had my personal tall person Ed_mcd. Some really good Camo on this, cheers
Out geocaching today with Magpie Cottage. Another great find. Thanks for hiding this cache for our enjoyment Roostaman
CIH pretty quick, but oh, how wet can a wet cache get? Not as wet as this wet cache got I bet.

I DNF this cache today, I couldn’t figure out which side of the fence I needed to be on! I kept going back and forth! I was there for so long I decided to sit on the ground, have a drink and think about my options. It was then that a muggle man came over and asked if I was okay and if my car was in fact mine. He had thought I had either broken down or gotten lost!!! After having him notice me, I had to leave pretty quickly.
