First find after a long break.
Introducing friends geocaching, Great little cache for their first find.

Found @11:46 while walking Geo Puppy. A couple of runaway dogs interrupted our search. Once they had been caught by their owner we quickly grabbed the cache which doesn't appear to be in its original location.
SL and retured to where it was found. Will contact owner with location details.
Thanks for the cache Hopestar.

A long wander away around midnight. Very much bring a light after dark! Scary bones. Thanks!
Cleaning up a few caches on this side of town with Neville_devil brought us to this little guy. the GPS brought to here as I chose one side of the tree Neville chose the other and Neville came up with the goods. A nice quick find and we were off. As we were getting in the car we saw a few cows that were wondering free so hopefully they cause too much trouble and the farmer gets them back into the yard. TFTC
Either my phone GPS is a little off, or I just can't zoom in far enough to get a super accurate location.. this one I was off by about 2m. But geo-gf located it by practically putting her hand on it! Neat little get-up in a classic container In the middle of nowhere, but still close enough to have a farmer drive by with odd looks!
Not the most inviting of caches that I have pulled up to with a bag of animal bones scattered everywhere. However, a nice quick find and we were on our way again. I love the open views you get from here. Thank you
I was enjoying finding a few odd caches after the event today and this was one. Found easily in this rather rural setting thanks Hopestar.
First time caching... couldn't find it... so much for beginners luck :') will have another shot at it soon
After reading some of the logs we thought we might be in for a long haul but as soon as we approached GZ we turned around and there was the cache. We were out of there before any of the livestock were on to us! TFTC
In need of some exercise to work off last night's excesses, I decided to take a stroll along the rail trail and up Coppards Rd to have a look for this cache. I have been down here quite a few times snapping bird photos and some rather soggy flood photos a few years back and once even to find another cache not too far away.
I arrived at GZ and immediately proceeded to make this much harder than it needed to be, which of course resulted in it also taking much longer than necessary . Sigh! Previous logs convinced me I was in roughly the right area but the GPS led me around in circles for some time before I moved a little further afield and finally made the find !
For a dead-end road it seemed rather busier today than I remembered from previous visits, but I went unnoticed except by the occasional sheep who didn't seem too interested in my activities. No cows in evidence today other than the silly one who took forever to find the cache .
Thanks Hopestar !

Took a while to look for this one. Great hide and I hope others enjoy this too. Thank you
Found by Mary & David at 1450. After a wonderful caching lunch Event, we are continuing on for a while with GeoJo. What a rich diversity of debris can be inspected here - bones, food, cloth, old barbed wire and, eventually, the cache. Our thanks to Hopestar.
Very close to home - finally had some time with maccamob to visit some local caches. We took longer than expected but I was the one who spotted this well constructed cache from the other side. Thanks!

Arrived at a nice ground zero, accompanied by the loudest mooing I've ever heard. Looked for a while before BINGO! A good sized cache, not too big, not too small. Thanks Hopestar for bringing me here to a place I never would have been without geocaching.

Quick find an a very pleasant morning in an area that I have been before and your right I only had the local cows watching me intently as I signed the log and returned all as it should be.
Thanks Hopestar for placing this cache.

Needing our daily cache we headed for this relatively new one after dark. So we are going to blame the lack of light for being the reason we were cache blind tonight. We looked everywhere or so we thought for this one, high and low but to no avail. After a quick message to a PAF we realised our mistake in searching in the wrong area and soon had the tricky one in hand.
Thanks Hopestar for the hide and keeping us on our toes tonight.

I went looking for this cache after dark. It took me much longer than it should have taken. It was even where the GPS said it should be. Thanks placing this cache and giving me a challenge.
Suscoe headed out here this afternoon to enjoy a cache with a blast of cold air with it.
A quick find as the chilly rain fell.
Thanks to Hopestar for placing this cache here.
Back into the car and away we went.

We were minding our own business when the notifications for a few new caches appeared. Hmm, they look interesting, but not now.
A little later, reaching a break in her busy schedule, suss happened to check the emails again. Lo and behold, another one had appeared, and it's only 1.1 km away from the lair. Ok, the vulture was quickly convinced to go on a very short road trip (in this beautiful weather, a walk would have been nice, but time did not permit). Would Darth Briji be around?
No, turns out he is working far away today. Yet, the car and the person we saw from afar could only mean one thing: FTF had been claimed. Congratulations to alchey! Nice to catch up and to see you in action again.
And thanks to Hopestar for getting us out to collect an unexpected smilie this afternoon! Looking forward to meeting you in the field, in the future.

#829. Thanks Hopestar for putting a cache out here. First time I've been out to this part of Geelong. I was able to make a quick find, co-ordinates were good, description excellent and left my mark in your log book. You are right about the likelihood of an audience here though ..... moooarh! When I turned to go back to my car a greeting from across the road came from several 4 legged friends wondering why all these people have been stopping here. All's good and I now have a smiley for 28 Jul which fills the month for me.

The notifications had been going off all morning but nothing close, then they went off again and to my surprise there was one nearby. Stopped what I was doing and headed out, knowing there were a few cachers nearby. Arrived at GZ with no one there or was I to late. With a quick search the cache was spotted with an empty log. Signed & replaced as found returned to the car and Suss vulture arrived. Spent so time talking then went our separate ways.
Well done on your first cache hide Hopestar. Thanks for the Cache.
