Easy find. Needs urgent repairs.

Almost ended in the water but it’s definitely not that far. No magnets left though.

Found this just on the ground, container was open/broken and log was tossed aside, so not sure of its proper spot.
Yep easily found, but heavily water damaged. Someone has made it slightly easier by colouring a surrounding rock in blue chalk!
Yohaan & Neil found it!! Our very first cache!Wasn’t very hard to find. Great fun activity
Nice easy find. However after all this rain the log book is wicked and moldy. TFTC
Our local park, so the kids love to find this one repeatedly. Log book is very mouldy and needs maintenance.
We collected some litter. “Pick up 3 for the sea!”

Found it again! Second time.
It’s getting wet and mouldy. Box needs replacing and log book is nearly full.

Eweek!!! Don't squash the cockroaches more like! Executed a couple who tried to take refuge under my keys. Left some trademarks. Tftc lid is pretty broken.
After a short search I thought I was in the wrong area. Widened my search then cache was in hand pretty quick. Container lid damaged. 1 clip broken, 1 missing. Able to still get a tight close for now.

Not sure if we were not looking in the right area or if the recent rain has washed it away! :/

Staying in area with a friend tonight before heading down to Geelong for the Christmas events. I was needing a cache for the calendar this seemed like a good one. A relatively quick find.

YAY - found it today while caching with BRK1960. Thanks for this cache - it was quite easy to spot . We signed our names and were off.
PS - The Troll Dolls (TN6TR0) were with us on our caching adventures today.

I would have walked into the pond if I’d followed the finding device’s directions this afternoon. However I turned and started looking elsewhere for some more likely place. My geopartner was a bit quicker off the blocks , noting a familiar type construction often used to cover a geocache. Yep, that was it! Cache found, log signed and we were on our way.
Tftc! Container is cracked, may need maintenance. We traded some little treasures.
Drove via the backstreets from #5 and parked close to this. Another good hide TFTC Ketchthor
Found this one quickly between muggles walking their dogs. Nice spot tucked in suburbia. Collected TB and will move it along. Thanks for the cache.
Up early as I couldn't sleep in the strange bed, where we were staying at the nearby AirBnB. Gave me the perfect opportunity to clean up some of the local caches, while the rest of the family snoozed on. It was a bit showery this morning but it didn't deter me. The biggest issue, was the lack of maintainence done, on so many of the local hides.
Parked nearby and wandered into make this find. Wander about looking for something a bit more covered before spotting the obvious hide, more out in the open, than I had expected.
I am currently writing detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to average one hundred words or more in each log. As of the start of 2018 my average was only 47 words per log, which seems a long way from the 100 target. Given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After over 7000 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including yesterday), the average log length is just over 50 words. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task before the end of next year. It's surprising how much is has increase since doing this.
Thanks Ketchthor for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

We are staying with friends in the area, so decided to come out and find a few caches on the way home from the RAAF Museum. An easy find by Geogirl #1. TFTC!

Hardly any muggles around and a few good safe hides.
Thanks for the cache Ketchthor,

Over the last month have been out getting caches within 10km of home, trying to fill our calendar.
GPS was loaded with caches, computer away for repairs, so had to wait to log them all.....
thanks to ketchthor for this cache, all in good order.

The weather looks like it is finally changing for the better so I decided to take the bike out for a spin in an area I haven't been to before so that is how I ended up at Point Cook.
A quick find. TNLN. TFTC.

*Out and about grabbing a cache to keep my streak alive*...
**335** *consecutive days with finds*
Another one crossed off in this series. Good to be back from my 4+ months away and time to clean up some of the many new caches (and one or two older ones).
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment Ketchthor. Appreciate your effort.

Headed down to Point Cook on a chilly Saturday afternoon and grabbed a few caches while we were in the area. TFTC
Yay. A win after a few muggle infestations. Walked past the cache several times before finding it. TFTC
Out here for the 5 months to the mega event. Grabbing some local caches the GPS was spot on with this one. So why would we trust it. Took way longer then needed great hide
Seeing a number of hides in the area we headed over targeting those of D2 or above. Some tough hides and tricky locations where the GPSr also would not steady. We saw one needed an elevation device so unfortunately had to give it a miss and it was to find a small rather than a micro near the end. TFTC.
This was a nice easy find and there was nobody around to hinder the search. Our name was added to the list of finders and all was put back as it had been found. Thanks to Ketchthor for another cache in this area.
