P.I.G - Something Fishy Officer South, Victoria, Australia
By Pinkpiggy7 on 05-Apr-15. Waypoint GC5QW14

A quick and easy puzzle to solve and a very quick find at GZ

TFTC

Initially, I couldn't find this cache as I started to wander around aimlessly - well, not aimlessly, but you know in confusion, and then quite unexpectedly I found it...

With the Mega only just around the corner I have decided to try and make it a milestone find of 7000 but that will require a little bit of work in the next couple of weeks to be in a position to make that happen. That in mind I arrange with AusFox; today to head over this side of the bay today to give the P.I.G and Pretzel series a crack having solved them so long a ago I can hardly remember doing them.
Development seems to be extreme in the area at the moment an it looks to be trying to engulf the series. We had to contend all day with large trucks that were clearing away large amount of earth which was a little tricky on some of the narrow sections of road.
thank you Pinkpiggy7 your hard work with these sries

Joined up with SimsFamily to do a mid week caching trip to visit pigs and dinosaurs that had been solved for a few years now.
The roads were surprisingly busy, which added an extra challenge to the day.
Log signed and replaced as found.

Thanks for the Puzzle cache PinkPiggy7

Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".

So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.

**Thanks to Pinkpiggy7 for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

Out on my own today picking up these caches that I had sloved the puzzles ages ago. Dusty road here but at least its not busy. Nice easy find here and not so many blackberries. Cache in good condition. Thanks for the puzzles Pinkpiggy7

Found in the company of Skylizard, while caching after attending the Flashmob event nearby.
Thanks for this series of puzzles, Pinkpiggy7.

To solve this geocache did my head in and one I had help on, So very glad to be able to finally log it. A bit disappointed with finding cache as log was cactus - added new log in the midst of rain

I had been working through these puzzles through a long Winter term , and finally solved them Friday, last day of school term. Oh joy, woop woop, so excited. I did have a little help for a couple but mostly got there myself, and google of course. So first day of holidays off I set bright and early with coffee, grainwaves, hommus and bananas, determined to not come home unless I found them all. Off I set on the crappiest Spring day that is more like Winter - I had rain, hail, a little sunshine, a gorgeous rainbow and a car covered in mud. Mostly had the roads to myself (excluding Cardinia Road - what a nightmare!) With the development in this area I wonder how long these geocaches will last?

Found the bait and signed the log. Solved the puzzle series and glad bingo bango moments could be enjoyed at GZ although I scored a few tears in the puffy jacket! Also had a couple of déjà vu moments when I realised I’d been there 12 Melbs mths ago! . It’s some time since these puzzles were tackled so just chipping away at finding them in ‘clutches’ hoping they don’t get archived before I get them all. So yes, I’m a long way from home base and enroute or you could say Sidetracked to the BIG EVENT Sidetrack at BUNYIP! Enjoyed exploring the far outer burbs and back roads of the ever expanding great Melbs . TFTC and the FUN!

Solved with lots of help! Almost gave up but found it at last

I decided to try and find some of the P.I.G. series today .. I solved these puzzles ages ago but lockdown and life in general seemed to get in the way .. this one was a cute little cache, hidden is a traditional way .. thanks Pinkpiggy7 I will be back for the rest.

Found it TFTC

cache back in the game

Disabling due to the current situation

replaced log

Replaced log

The area is to wet to go out, and due to life, I am disabling for a week or 2. Anyone who happens to find it is welcome to throw in a new log.

Out and about with Muzza today focusing on the P.I.G. and Thompson Series with a few random caches thrown in for good measure.

TFTC PinkPiggy7

Out today with Squiiix concentrating on two main cache series. We found most in this series with just one DNF, but with the rains of the day before, three were bypassed as we didn't have gumboots or kayaks to access them.



My thanks for the cache, Pinkpiggy7.

Log is mushy and falling apart

After spending plenty of time working our way through the puzzles and pulling piggy apart it is now time for Kristysadventures and I to find the caches and put piggy back together again. Very fishy indeed. Took a while to solve this one. Log is fragile and needs replacing

This puzzle was our last in the series and I had many attempt at it telling Roaming Howie I knew what I was doing! It took me several nights and then I finally got through my two missteps and figured it out... great matching cache! Now we have caught a fish I hope we can also bring home the bacon!!

I had a great time today, collecting (almost) all of this geoart series. I pretty much had the roads to myself (except for the highway ofcourse) and I was thankful for the CO always placing the cache in the most logical spot which helped keep the search times to a minimum, particularly in areas with very long grass. I love solving geoart puzzles- watching the icons jump to their actual locations and "destroying" the artwork until it is completely decimated, and then finding them and watching them jump back into their original geoart position which is now yellow instead of blue!
Ill admit it - I spent AGES on the red herring here before realising my mistake. Dang it! A good solve once I had the key to the puzzle. TFTC!

After finding a few of these caches in November last year I came back to do a few more, unfortunately I kept getting followed by a car so decided to leave and will come back anyhow day and finish them off.

Today was a good day out, made my way down to safety beach/Mornington Peninsula area for a CITO and event. Then headed back via some bike caches. All finished off with an experience with the police.

TFTC

We were in Melbourne this morning for an appointment and, as Mr SKI had solved this series of puzzles a while ago, we decided that it would be a great idea to stop and look for the caches. A beautiful, sunny afternoon made caching even more of an attraction, as we have only recently arrived home after disappearing from Victoria over winter. We have slowly been freezing after encountering the wintery cold conditions that greeted us on our return.
TFTC, and apologies for the generic log as this is a great series that we have really enjoyed solving and finding

Back out here to a quiet country-like road for another puzzle cache find. Loving this series.

A day off work and I needed to be on the east side of Melbourne Friday night so I decided some caching on this side of the city was in order. These have been solved for years and though I didn’t collect them all I made a start at least. Some nice creative containers made me smile as I plodded along. It was super busy around the traps so I had to skip some but maybe I’ll be back. Many thanks for the cache and the great series.

We brought the pushbikes out to help us finish this series. Managed 11 of 14 we were seeking for the day, and think we may have mucked up the other 3.
Thanks PinkPiggy7 for a great afternoons entertainment and exercise. This was a quick and easy discovery.

Our caching hunt today with ilook4geo took us to the other side of Melbourne. We had a list of solved puzzles to change to smiley faces, but even so we still had to pick and choose as we had limited time available and a long list of possibilities. Each log had two more names added to record our visit before we moved on. Our thanks go to Pinkpiggy7 for placing this series of fun and often challenging puzzles and the caches to go with each one.

Decided to do a caching run and pick up some puzzle caches. A lot of the puzzles were hard to solve, but the containers were OK to find. Log signed, all replaced, job done. TFTC.

In Preparation for our Australia tour we found this nice geo art. At home we solved all mysteries. Our target today was to find all prizes. It was a tough game, because the nature was on its top, but we managed them all after more than 4 hours. We are happy and say thanks for the Caches!

First full day of the 3 day whirlwind "Bromance" Parkville Mega FIFO trip.

After a late night (or rather early morning) courtesy of the last flight out of Brisbane and a few caches on the way to our cheap and cheerful Airbnb accommodation near Frankston, Seffnjarah, Swellerfungus and I were a bit slow to get going this morning.

We hit a local bakery for breakfast and then were on the road, targeting the C.F. and PIG series. Along the way we were frustrated by the endless closed roads from roadwork's as the urban sprawl swallows up more farmland.

Most logs were signed "Bromance" to save space. Many thanks Geocaching Melbourne and for placing this puzzle.

#4,611

Day 2 of the Bromance (from Brisbane, Queensland) trip to the Parkville Mega. We stayed overnight in salubrious (AirBNB) accomodation and headed off early for caching. Our targets today are the CF and PIG series from a past Mega that we were unabe to attend. Of courese we cannot drive past virtuals, interesting D/T's, letterboxes, puzzles, earthcaches, wherigos, and challenge caches.
In most cases logs were signed as the "Bromance" that represents Swellerfungus, CrookedPete and seffnjarah to save space in the logsheets.
Thanks to all the CO's who placed and maintain these old series.

Really enjoyable learning how to do these puzzle caches and then gathering the results of much head scratching. thanks for placing and maintaining the series pp7

Oh god, I hope I’m not the only twit that spent waaaaaay too long googling caches in Italy with a fish theme. Makes it a little tough when you don’t speak or understand Italian but I didn’t let that stop me. No, I then started googling what bloody fish the Italians love to eat. This was one of the early puzzles I worked on, so it got put (shoved) into the too hard basket. When I looked at it again, I knew exactly what to do. Some mothers do have em.

At GZ, we were greeted by two beautiful horses that stopped for a pat. Another excellent container, although the log is pretty wet but we still managed to sign.
Thank you Pinkpiggy7. I’m never going to forget this cache.

solves at homework few months ago, great enjoyed with puzzles series so very interest.. my travelling to ACT via melb for overnight after spirit of tasmania from devonport to melb and meet ALL7, wow awesome enjoyed all series, lovely country area...
sign the log with good dry..
TFTC

I solves at homework few months ago, i meet 63roos and We enjoyed all series, lovely country area... cache good safe hide... thanks

I came by last night to collect this one and due to it location I did not spent too long searching. Instead I opted for another to continue my streak yesterday and returned to quickly locate this one in the days light. The puzzle was one of a few in this series I put off solving but was not difficult in the end and the cache marked the completion of the pig series. Now to go home and see if I have all the clues for the final........hmmm where did I put all the clues I found.

Tftc pinkpiggy

I've been meaning to solve and find the P.I.G series in forever and now was the time to do it - I don't cache much during winter but the Hidden Creatures series gave me a push. I managed to solve all the puzzles in a couple of weeks, with a few needing a push from a caching friend or the CO. Thanks Pinkpiggy7
The cache - Cute cache, was a bit fishy at GZ
The puzzle - One of the hard ones. I had some help from a previous finder but once again it's something I should've known well enough to check first, never mind : )

Today was spent finding the P.I.G Series. I think I have these solved for quite some time now and I FINALLY got around to attempting to find their physical locations. I started the day of woefully, spending some time looking for my 1st cache – HQ to all Cachers, before rechecking the puzzle in the field and realising I was severely off the mark, by about 1km or so...
Undeterred, I set off to the next cache on my list, not realising until I got home that I missed one completely. (as in I didn’t see the icon on the screen . The day was off to a slow start... I soon got into the groove of things and soon my eye was in full cache spotting mode.

16th find - I got distracted here by a couple of visitors of the horse kind.

Date: 1 July 2018 Time: 11:12
Find #9575

A beautiful winters day and several souvenirs on offer just for finding caches. Roll back time to March 2015, I was supposed to be making puzzles for the Melbourne Mega Event when this series was published. I solved a handful, then got back to what I was supposed to be doing. After the Mega, I found time to work my way through the remaining unsolved caches.

Today was the day to put smiles on this series, but it started not so well with 4 DNF's. After a chat with the CO and a re-solve of 1 of them, I was back on track.

Gave myself a nice smack in the head at this one. Doh, I need a laydown!

Many thanks to Pinkpiggy7 for the cache. TNLN.

Well what was the plan for today, well that is simple today was the day for me to use the idea of reaching 1750 finds as motivation to get up and out of the house for today. So with that being said I decided to turn my attention over to this little area and clear some more area to the east. Well now it was time to the Pig series that i have been rather lazy with, now I had to power through the remaining caches and uncover the final location, anyways thanks for the cache and the puzzle solving adventure.

I was in Melbourne for a birthday party and Business and found myself with a day to spare. So I decided to find as many puzzle caches as could from long solved and unfound list. So I apologize for the generic logs as I found close to one hundred in the epic binge. I appreciate the effect the various cache owners have put in to creating the puzzles and placement and maintaining the caches. I love doing puzzles. Cheers

Something was fishy here. After going through the motions and getting nowhere, I had to resort to a deeper level word search. And luckily, I found some.
At GZ, something else was fishy.
Thanks Pinkpiggy7 for another great puzzle and cache
Chiefton!!!

I have walked for ages just looking for this elusive cache. Log book soggy so I added a new one. Very happy to find this cute cache before heading home for the day. - Kind thanks PinkPiggy7 for all your hard work.

My GPS was a little unstable and I initially headed off in the wrong direction, fortunately Lyn was looking in the right place and spotted something that seemed a little fishy! TFTC

Puzzles solved for this series. Came here for the day before heading to work in the evening. Nice and found. Thanks Pinkpiggy7 for the cache.

Took a while. Reckon the gps in my phone is getting dodger. Tftc tnln

On the way to Wilson's Prom for an overnight hike with Jacko and Timmo we detoured slightly for this cache. This one almost got away .
A tricky one to solve, but just like fishing, it is easier with mates! Making the find wasn't any easier - our GPSrs kept wandering and alternating between both sides of the road. Eventually we just resorted to geosenses and then made the find relatively quickly.
And that's just the first one in the series done - these could take me a while...
Thanks, Pinkpiggy7.

Really needed the DT for this one so a quick last minute solve with the help of a friend! Today enroute to The Prom managed to swing by here and after a bit of a search made the find. Thanks PP!

Are these getting harder or am I going blind. Ok so I didn't use the GPS and searched what seemed like the obvious spots first then as I was scratching my head I spotted something fishy indeed. Thanks PP7 cache and log good, slightly damp but pretty good.

What a fine specimen.
Thanks for the caches and the fun puzzles Pinkpiggy7

Something fishy here and we found it!

After a couple of nights puzzle solving this excellent series, I decided to head out and make some finds today, just as many as I could before the rain came. I was in luck today as it held off long enough for me to finish the series and consider starting another local series! The puzzles were great, for a beginner puzzle solver like me, and the hides were in theme and very cute. TFTC and TFTP Pinkpiggy7

Another that the kids have loved!!! Tftc we are getting there!!

Hard puzzle to solve without assistance and then a bit of a hunt at gz but found it in the end. One more to go to finish the geoart. Tftc

Another interesting puzzle that seems simple but then makes you work for it.
Today with the storms stopped for the moment, it was a quick stop at the gz. However like the puzzle then had to work for it with the gps always saying that the cache was on the other side of the road.
But interesting container found in the end.
Thanks for the cache Pinkpiggy7

Having solved all the puzzles in the series, today was the day to see how many I could find. I had a pretty good hit rate but there were four that escaped me in time I had available. This certainly was a pretty tricky one to solve. Thanks for setting up a fun series of puzzles. Cheers and TFTC

I have had a lovely afternoon finding all these caches. This is my first try at Geo art. I can't wait to see all the smileys Thanks heaps for all of the puzzles. I have learnt heaps

The last puzzle found after great difficulty solving it. Thanks for a great series Pink Piggy. Now to get to the Final!

Lets go on another night time adventure. After taking another go at solving the last of these puzzles, it was time to go out and find them on another Night Adventure. This was certainly another evening full of laughs, 8 legged cache guardians and A lot of caffeine.
Another stop off at a road side cache. a quick location and find with the log signed and placed back into its hidy hole. TFTC! and for another AMAZING puzzle adventure.

Found @10:55 #5931
Had worked on this clever series apparently about 650 days ago according to the C:GEO and so finally I decided to get out of the house and do the run to put a smiley on each. Took about 3hrs to complete the series with some minor rain bands that passed over quite quickly. It had been quite awhile since I had done a drive-by power trail and quite enjoyed it by the end.

This was the last to solve and I think I just brute force it in the end, the hardest in the series.

TFTC Pinkpiggy7

Find #1444. We spent a week or two solving the puzzles we were missing while watching TV after dinner and today was the day we set out to find a few of them. We had already found a few some months back and we hoped to get a few more today. This was our twentieth find for the day. We needed help from the CO for this one but we were already on the field. We got the required information but without our computer we had to resort to a PAF. Thanks so much for everyone's help here. Thanks Pinkpiggy7 for the cache and a great series.

Lets go on another night time adventure. After taking another go at solving the last of these puzzles, it was time to go out and find them on another Night Adventure. This was certainly another evening full of laughs, 8 legged cache guardians and A lot of caffeine.
Another stop off at a road side cache. a quick location and find with the log signed and placed back into its hidy hole. TFTC! and for another AMAZING puzzle adventure.

The locals be approaching. I was passed by about 4 slow driving vehicles while looking for this. I'm not sure if my solution was off, but the cache was about 10 metres away from where I was looking. TFTC

TFTC. The second in our quest to find the previous weeks DNFs. We pulled up and searched and searched. We then widened the area to look. There it is. Why did we not see it. Can only suggest that it was hot and we suffered from cache blindness. Number 2 off our list.

This was the first of our 6 DNFs on this series. No matter where we looked it eluded us.

A big day today with 33 finds. It took a little time to solve all of the puzzles and I learnt a lot from recently completing the pretzel dinosaur series. For this series I solved as many as possible, PAF for a few, mapped them and collected as many as possible all in one morning. What an enjoyable morning. There were busy roads, tree climbing, fast trucks on dirt roads, lovely bridges and creeks, prickles, barbed wire, reversing, startled birds, pretend photos and phone calls taken. All puzzles were fabulous and all caches were hidden well and cache containers cleverly put together. TFTC and the series.

Sneaky puzzle this one. Sometimes it good to overshoot the mark when travelling past, music up loud, having a great day but often driving straight past a cache spot, reversing can make me see things from a different perspective so that can be helpful too.

Another one where the GPS took us straight to it but alas the log was very wet. I normally have a book of stone paper that is waterproof in the car but I must have taken it out. I did however have some log sheet I'd printed out for another series. So now CO you have a treasure map in a new zip lock bag in your cache.
Thanks Pinkpiggy7 for the great series

Thanks to BorisB&Natasha for fixing up the log in this one. It helps

Geodad aka Fleabag- did the majority of the puzzle solving for this series. So today we headed out pig hunting. Dusty roads and flies was the order of the day. My 5yr old lil geosister was in charge of food and gave us 1 item per find, such as a grape or a M&M. She even got out for 26 of the caches. All caches found within a few minutes searching. Thanks for much for this great series. Like the container. Log book wet.

After solving these some time back I finally managed to get time today along with GT02 to make the assault on this series. Puzzle okay. Cache log book soaked. Took a few minutes back and forth before I saw this one. Thanks to Pinkpiggy7 for placing this cache.

About a month ago I decided to turn my attention to the P.I.G series and on Saturday I completed the final puzzles so I decided that today would be the day to collect them all. It was a lovely sunny day which made the collection even more enjoyable except when I had to trudge through long grass.

This puzzle was one of the last couple that I completed on Saturday. I had been pulling my hair out trying to find a starting point. I must have started and stopped this puzzle a dozen times. I am unsure what the trigger was for me to look at things differently but when I did it all fell into place and I had a workable set of coordinates.

The GPSr was bouncing around a bit but in the end I put it away and used my geo-sense. This proved to be a wise decision as I soon had the cache in hand. The log is very damp. TFTC.

Find # 3962

Found with sharkiefan.

The plan had been organised some time ago to catch up in the big smoke, and grab some of the CF series of caches (and some other caches that were on the map while we were on our way around).
Also in Prep I had managed to get all the final GZ'ds for this PIG series.
Like some of the puzzles, finding the caches were just as hard. don't know if it was tree cover or a strange day, but both of us seemed to have some GZ's off a little. Neverless we managed all but one on this series. Even with a couple of Revisits to claim the smileys.

TFTC Pinkpiggy7

Found on 2nd attempt with FUF009 after doing some maintenance of the CF series. This was a pretty good series although we found some of the coords to be quite out. We had to double back to check a couple we missed. There was one patch of road that was quite scary to try to stop on but we managed to make do. Thankfully I have a tiny car. Tftc

11/12/2016 5:44:00 PM
Solved this series some time ago and decided to collect a few while in the area as I don't get this far east very often.
A fun series of puzzles and this one took me the longest to solve and by far the longest to find. Log book is very damp.
Thanks

Spending a few extra days in the greater Melbourne area after attending the Surf Coast MEGA, and over this side of town to collect some solved puzzles. All good here, cache found without any difficulties, logbook signed, and all replaced as found. Many thanks for the puzzle and the placement [^]

### MEGA - The Surf Coast Event 2016 ###

----------

**DAY ´6**

I am alone again today unfortunately. My daughter had to fly back to Sydney already.

We have planned for the mega event long before hand. I have spotted the GeoArt caches right at the beginning of my planning.
The Pics and the Dino’s were all solved in Germany beforehand. Many were quite a challenge and I had to ask some friends back home for help.
We just couldn’t figure out 3 so we had to ask the owner for help.

I started the Pic cache by beautiful sunshine. I had so look around quite a bit at some spots to locate the cache. I have met a cacher on the way who told me that he couldn’t find the next cache. I looked there for about 30 min but I was able to find all the next ones.

At the end I finally had the final in my end which I was so happy about, however one was still missing. I went back again and looked but couldn’t find it.

Solving the caches was already fun back home. I was happy about the beautiful nature. It’s fun hobby and I was happy to enjoy the quit nature.

Nicely decorated caches, the nice contact, the nice helpfulness and also tolenance.
Thank you

Best regards from Germany
Team sissifalke

I will give favourite points also.

Day 2 of my week long visit to Victoria. Day 1 was spent driving over from Adelaide with AnyMules and as I have done the trip several times, I was only able to pick up 3 finds. One however was rectifying a previous DNF. Having arrived we met Bushfire at our overnight digs in Tynong North where we planned today's hunt over a few laughs, some pizza and of course a few wines.
The plan for today was attack the Pretzel series, pick up some caches we missed at last year's mega, target a few solved mysteries and pick up a few whilst passing. The Suscoes joined us for Pretzel and we found them all. No nasty little blue question marks left in the geoart this time. [^]
Having finished Pretzel it was time to head into Pakenham for some lunch. That is where the Suscoes left us to our own devices and we returned to completing the geoart from last year's mega.
First up this little blue bugger. The only blue mark in my nice pig face of smilies. Once again my GPS wanted me on the road playing with the traffic. But this time we had a secret weapon. The weapon went to work and soon we had the cache in hand. Yep..how fitting...it IS blue.
Thanks Pinkpiggy7. devious puzzle. Log a bit damp but with summer coming it will probably dry!

Log was sodden only just managed to get our names onto the log. Cool container though tftc

#5206

A week of caching and this guy was on my list travelling through Werribee then down along the beach front to Beaumaris and then across to Tynong and then returning to Anglesea for the Surf Coast Mega later in the week travelling with my friends from S.A.
Our aim was to find five C.F. caches that we did not find last Mega, one PIG cache that was a DNF last year, and then attack the Pretzel Series and another 30 odd mysteries, multis and letterbox caches and if a trad crossed our path then we would grab it on our way past.
brisal5 had booked us into a farm stay cottage for a few days and as stated previously we planned to returned to the 2016 Mega at Anglesea. This week I have cached as Bushfire, GOTHS+1 ( I am the +) BAB and today BABS and must thank all the owners of caches that we have found for placing these caches to make this trip possible.
A week of laughs, some great company, some good food and wine and some great caches, what more could you ask for. OH I should also say a couple of DNF's, too good for us this trip, but if I live long enough I hope to return.
After a DNF here last year today it was a very quick find, hard to believe we spent so long here on our last visit.
Thanks Pinkpiggy7 for placing this cache.

Found with Paddle Chick and Buller Trout our Kiwi group over for the Mega signed log BT-PC-KN Thanks for placing the cache

Found on Mega trip with Paddle chick and Kiwi Nomad. Thanks for all of the caches. Enjoying the trip. Always wanted to come back to Victoria

Came to this one as my caching partners for the day had previously DNFd this one. Today the luck had changed and we made the find about 12m away from where the coordinates wanted us. TFTC. 9/11/16, 2:13 pm Find #3108.

Q found this cache. Found in the company of quiet1_au and GJMMelb, TFTC

Found with Lochb and Quiet1_au today as we tackled this series and others. This was one of those that took some time to find. Q eventually found this. Thanks Pinkpiggy7
GJMMelb

I'd worked on the P.I.G. puzzles a while ago and recently discovered the Pretzel/Project Pretzel series so spent some time (when I should really have been studying...) cracking these too. I challenged myself to solve them all myself which I did except for one which G' of GJMMelb gave me the solution for (he solved many of them independently) as time was short. Combining these puzzles with a few others in the area and The Slog series a grand plan for a Big Day Out of caching was hatched with a core list of 133 caches to find! Our merry band of cachers - lochb who did the driving and G' of GJMMelb and myself who did the bulk of the brain and legwork - set out early for a full day of mostly drive-by caching. We succeeded in getting 134 finds before light stopped play! This was despite some setbacks: a handful of DNFs (luckily we found other caches to substitute for those we couldn't find), a couple of errors in solutions that we luckily sorted out and still managed finds, an unwelcome flat read tyre and even a couple of "close encounters" with a helicopter - we weren't sure if they were checking us out or not though. A great day of caching that saw all three of us beat our personal best finds in a day

Lol, I like the choice of container! Log was a little damp but still able to be signed. TFTC

Had this in the unit for a little while and today was the day. Found in the illustrious company of Feathertop who did the hard working jumping out to find this one. Nice puzzle that had a few candles burnt.

Thanks to Pinkpiggy7 and *clear skies* from TeamAstro. Cache the planet!

It has taken me four trips to finally do all of these PIG series. I solved most of them pre mega last year but it is a long way from home out here and once I had solved the pretzels this made a logical big day. I had 13 PIGS to go and they were found in Team Astros company on a lovely spring morning
Thanks Pinkpiggy7

Well we were sitting on the couch relaxing and Mr Geo decided that he wanted to do a coup,e of caches and said to me "havnt you done some puzzle caches?" I said yes ive done a few so he said "ok lets go get some" i wanted to sit for 10mins to plan out our route with the final co-ords but he wanted to leave so i rushed them and we ran out the door, there wasnt too much back and forth and we managed to get a few for the night, this cache was missed by Mr Geo and geokid8 as they were thinking too much. I walked over and found it. Im glad this cache was our first for the night as it is a cool one, and our second ever puzzle cache. TFTC

Found after coaching stinky bobs basketball game. Go the Cardinia Cavs and TFTC

Did some preparations in New Zealand before moving here so I could find the rest of these puzzles.
This one was tricky but thankfully it was a nice quick find.
I enjoyed the container too.
Thanks heaps Pinkpiggy7, cache in good condition. First to sign the new log.
Cheers

Big thanks to KTCVic for replacing the log on this one.

On the 10th of July Dad the T and I the C in KTCvic went out to find the P.I.G series. We had worked out the coordinates to where the caches were we just had to try and find them. Some of the times we both didn’t have a proper look and sometimes we just found them straight away. There were many amazing ideas for what the cache to look like and where to hide them. This was an awesome series and I hope I can find some more series like these series of caches.

Dad and the Lad - PIG series - 35 Caches

With a day up our sleeves and a series not found nearby, we ventured out to make some finds. Between us both some boy looks were had, but an enjoyable day as we explored the rural roads of Cardinia (not for long). We stopped after finding them all for a late lunch and explored Berwick for the new game Pokemon Go.

Replaced the wet log with a new clean one!!

Thanks for the series Pinkpiggy7 had a great day!!

Nice easy find cute little cache

This was where things had come a little unstuck when I entered the corrected coordinates. I entered the ones for Ha-Ha as this one, so I thought we'd done this one when really we'd done Ha-Ha. Not sure how I managed it but we had to go back and check which one we'd actually done and then come back for this one that we'd missed. Thanks to Judith9799 for the correct coordinates. I know I definitely solved this one because it was the second last one I did and I had to get help with it. Another fab themed container

34th P.I.G cache visited today (33rd found) so only the final to solve and find now, yippeee!

I had solved these puzzles sometime ago I had arranged to meet up with #sealteam4 and stormgirl13 to find these. Had to extend my search here by about 10 m. Easy find then. It's all in the name. TFTC
