Good Day,

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

With the young son in tow we visited stromlo observatory before heading to kambah burns club for lunch then followed by a dip at kambah pool. A great day with a few caches along the way. Such a fantastic day with a day in the low 30s.

A too-easy find as it was sitting in the open. Signed log and replaced where it looked like it had previously resided under greater cover.

I got to finish up work a bit earlier and had to pick up a delivery at the Australia Post place in Mitchell, so of course the logical thing to do was get on the bike and make a caching trip out of it.

The first cache of my meticulously planned (!) journey to Mitchell. A nice easy find of a good sized cache to get things ticking along. TNLNSL TFTC Smile

We had planned today a trip to Canberra to do some specific caches with Wilbert67 and the bounus was grabbing some extra once as well.
We had great weather leaving the rain behind us this morning, fun company made it a great day. TFTC

A long and hard day of caching in Canberra with J+J.AU. Lots of puzzles solved in the last weeks and they were not easy. Also qualified for a few challenges and picked up a couple of traditionals. This one was one of the easier traditionals, but needed to be picked up. Happy to have found this cache!

Went for an evening wander, and because it was night I was slightly less graceful than normal - I didn't fall over though! Found the cache and I think I've now gotten all the grass seeds off of me Smile took something and left a cooler thing - TFTC!
 
27-Aug-17
We parked across the road and walked over to this cache. It was very easy to find. Tftc!
 
27-Aug-17
AddictedGamer and I were up early and figured we might as well go out.

Chilly morning and quiet except for a couple walking. As they passed, we crossed the road from where we parked and straight to GZ. Quickly found, signed and back to the warm car. Tftc!!!

Found it. Nice racing car!

After visiting Franklin Dental Care, and having a very pleasant experience may I say, I've decided to seek out some of the local caches. I've never been to this suburb so it's great being able to explore.
This cache wasn't where I thought but was quickly located it after following a well trodden path. It is in good condition though the log could do with a bag. There is is some lovely play equipment nearby. Great little suburb. Tftc

After dinner, Miskit and I decided to go grab a cache. It was a cool but clear evening, and I was glad to get out of the house. This cache was not too far away and the cache's name had always intrigued me. As we were in the dark, I resorted to the hint straight away, which was helpful. At GZ I noticed something out of the corner of my eye, and there was the cache! Miskit, laziest online logger ever, decided not to have his name in the log book!
Thx for the cache!

A park without a parking area? Does anyone walk here?? Good hint, it is very overgrown. TFTC
 
14-Jun-17
Tuesday 13 June 2017 - another glorious Winter's day without a cloud in view enjoying the brilliant blue sky. Mid afternoon found 3 from 4 caches taking Nonna for a drive to keep here entertained. Quick and easy find thx to the hint as GZ was out by 4m. TFTC aztecher.

Came out here for my daily yesterday, decided to come back for another one today ... found one, then decided to grab another ... this one.
TFTC - handy that I didn't need my kayak, that I didn't have with me Smile
A nice little poke around (for a few minutes longer than it should have taken me - lol) in another interesting little spot ...
 
16-Jan-17
On a hot day like today a boat would be nice though but perhaps a little hard to launch here! Oh well, at least the local bird life is enjoying the water. After 3 weeks of holidays and relying on the steady gps I'm not such a fan of the phone bouncing about now. So without waiting for it to settle, over thought this completely and walked straight past. Found it on the return pass. Thanks for the cache aztecher.
 
19-Dec-16
Nice hidey hole. Bit creepy though with all those reeds moving around! Something came up near me on the reed side (probably only a bird but in this heat my imagination was working overtime) so we skedaddled real quick! TFTC
 
19-Dec-16
It was funny watching Mum get freaked out here, LOL

F(H)ound It! No.1376 - @4:01:00 PM

Almost need a boat today or one of those Florida Everglades fan forced thingies. After several days of rain the ground is saturated and every step is soggy. There was a family of muggles at the nearby playground but luckily I was well out of sight at GZ. Cache is clean and dry. The hint helped Big Grin Thanks for the cache, aztecher

A quick drive by grab. TFTC.

This is the last of seven for me today. It's a cloudy day, not much wind, and I've been shopping at Majura Park. I need my morale rebuilt, so I'm going geocaching. I don't have the GeoSchnauzers, so I'll do some suburban in-fill with park and grab techniques.

Thanks for the clue, it made the search easier than it might otherwise have been. Good hide, aztecher.
 
04-Aug-16
We brought our dinghy, scuba gear and snorkel, but as the description says....you don't need a boat!
So...following the trail, we soon found the cache, and behind the bushes inscribed our signature.

Thanks aztecher,

#1486 Still on foot caching with the Green-Martian, I almost came up with the goods, but GM found the cache in its hiding place. Even after all this rain, the cache was in great shape. Thanks aztecher.

#1138. 133 days in a row.

I stopped by this area after work, so that I could keep my streak going. I'd solved a nearby puzzle a while ago, but hadn't got around to picking it up. Today was the day and since I was in the area I decided to grab this one as well. It was a little tougher to find this one since it had started getting dark by the time I got here, but I was able to find it by the light from my phone.
 
03-Apr-16
Nice easy find. Beware the spikes shrubbery though

At first I thought I was going to have to use the provided blow up 'toy', then I realised all I had to do was look harder...

#1861 FFTD. I tried to grab this one a week or so ago, but it had rained overnight & I got soaked as I rummaged through the heavily, water-laden bushes. In the end, I gave up & wet to dry off. Conditions were much better today & it seemed less bushy ! Not sure why. Anyway, it was a quick find today.

A well hidden cache, given the size. Took a little while to spot it. Toughest thing here was parking.

Thanks for showing me a new spot.
 
22-Aug-15
Found with GrimRaider on a suburban cache run. Clue was very helpful as cache is well hidden and so hopefully muggle-free. Cache in good condition - thanks for the hide Smile

I chose this for tonight's cache as I didn't feel like going very far. Unfortunately as I had emptied the car out before taking it in for a service yesterday, I didn't come prepared with a torch. I had to resort to the flashlight on my phone. In the end it was touch rather than sight that located the cache. TFTC.
 
04-Aug-15
Found 9:47 pm. Well I wanted to still continue my streak by finding a cache for the day even if it was cold out. This cache and another nearby came up on the radar so decided to come out here and first try the other and then headed over to this one. Parked the geovehicle near GZ and walked over. I guess counting bushes depends in which way you come. My first little searches were fruitless. Then a little further looking turned up the goods. Signed the log and replaced back where I had found it.
Thanks for the cache.
 
02-Aug-15
Headed out on a short geocaching mission this afternoon in between showers with Bobl27 and geohound.

Fourth and last one of the day. We needed the hint for this one, but we knew it could not too sneaky given its size. Yep - there it is - hidden well in a suitable spot for this sized container. Thanks for the cache!
 
02-Aug-15
Found six today with angelG and the hound in between the rain and as dicky knee permitted Smile

Last one of the day and a reasonably quick find. A boat may have been needed if it had kept raining!

Thanks for the cache !

A find to fill a gap in our geo-calendar. Enzo made a very quick find here, just as zita was starting to read the description. Nice. TNLNSL TFTC Smile

26-Jul-15
Found @ 1:47pm after a walk with Hodge the geohound

It rained while we searched for this one but stopped so I could sign the log. Didn't see the listed TB "Red Goes Faster".

Thanks aztecher
 
25-Jul-15
Nice and easy find. Considered taking the tb for an upcoming trip but decided against it. Tftc!
 
22-Jul-15
This took a bit of searching. I do like reeds. TFTC aztecher.
