Cache has disappeared. Assuming it was considered rubbish by those who cleaned the area up.
I fear it has been destroyed by someone who doesn't know how to use a chainsaw properly.
No luck for what should have been straightforward. Was the cache a victim of recent pruning?
Running some errands with Dad in Cranbourne today.
Last stop was vacuuming the back of the car to get rid of the accumulation of hay since the last time we vacuumed (miniature pony problems!!) which we normally do at home but decided to wash the bugs off the windshield too while out & about at the car wash.
The rain had temporarily stopped so decided to squeeze in a quick cache and this one was the closest.
Talk about a drive thru cache!! We pulled up at GZ, I lent out the window and grabbed the container, signed the log and replaced the cache all without getting out of the car!!
The O ring has disappeared so some moisture is starting to creep in- log still signable
Thanks for the cache alkysina

Thanks for placing this cache alkysina. We enjoyed the nice quick find on our way home.
Payed a visit socond time looking think l left my eyes in the car the first time. Quick easy find with the scout tavel bug
Arrived at GZ to find an unmarked police car with lights flashing and a car pulled over. Dilemma, what to do? Well of course easty115 and I discretely searched while the policemen were busy chatting. Quick easy find SL TFTC
Had a quick look while the boys checked out tackle world across the road. But l did have my tb scout coin in my pocket for the mini adventure
Great, quick one for kids. Especially the activity involved in finding it! TFTC!!
Find #2061
Had a work meeting out this way so once i was done I had a little time to spend before heading home. I struggled to find a convenient parking space for this one (remarkably once I got there on foot and saw I could have driven to GZ!). Once in position a certain feature stood out and after a quick check the cache was in hand. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache alkysina. My own Scouts experience was not a particularly fun one but that is at least as much my fault as theirs I can say with hindsight!

Found with youngest son xXiSolemnlySwearXx this evening while middle son at basketball practice nearby. Forget the car traffic it was the muggle foot traffic on this surprisingly busy path we had to watch out for so xXiSSXx was my lookout while I retrieved and signed the log. Loved the bison tube.

It seems like such a long time away from caching with renovations, many work commitments and general business over the last 8 months today was a welcome and fun time out. No real plan today merely get out and cache, took a couple of caches to find our groove managing 29 for the arvo.
Many thanks to alkysina for the time an effort in placing the hides. TNLN TFTC SL

I found this cache today at 9:40am as number 8 of 53 on my Australia Day Northern South Gippsland Loop. A very nice cache container for such an open place but I appreciated it. Thanks from D B-A.
Well after a break in caching due to family issues, renovations, work commitments and general business, Slink1 and I managed to get away and do a few - as they say.
So thanks to alkysina and thanks for the cache. TNLN SL

Fleabag-, GT02 and I finally had time to head out today and find all the puzzles we had been working on over the last few weeks. We had a great time driving around locating all these today. Even did a lot of "that looks like a good spot for a cache" and managed to find 3 out of the 6 puzzles we still have left to solve so that was handy. Once we finish all the puzzles then we need to get into the WhereIGos.
While we were heading back home after a few hours and some successful random searching we stopped at a few on the way back.
A nice quick find since the place was deserted.
Thanks alkysina for the cache, the hunt and the fun.

Spiffy- Fleabag- and I were caching in the area and stopped for this one. Quick find at GZ. Thanks alkysina for the cache and the fun.
TFTC. Was great to visit a scout hall. My dad was heavily involved is scouting and I know he would have loved caching. We spent many weekends orienteering together
Found with eartheddivine and GeoJulz. Found on the way back from the doctors. Good spot.
Working in the area for a month, so trying to get a few each morning. Easy drive by cache.
No muggles around this early.

Doing a few drivebys tonight with grumygramps1 to break the week up. Lots of cache about so should be a productive night as I close on 1000cache for 2015. TFTC
Another quick find. Can't believe I never thought to look for this one before! TFTC.
Catching up on some long lost forgotten logs, found with Yoshi Warriors and Happy Feet during the mega weekend. So sorry about the late logs. TFTC
Found with Moosetash, Happy Pants & Happy Feet1 on the Mega weekend. After pulling over, we managed to make a quick find. TFTC alkysina.
In the area for the Mega and catching up with other geo family and friends. We enjoyed doing this cache, in between doing the nearby series. A quick find by the ex scouts.
Thanks for placing & maintaining the cache for us to find.

Found in great condition. On the other side of the bay for the MEGA event. There were many fun sessions such as creative containers workshops, what makes a great EarthCache and a wherigo session. There was a break in between some activities which was a great opportunity to have lunch and find a few caches. This was the fifth cache today. Arrived at GZ and quickly found my first of this container. TFTC TNLN SL. Thanks for a fun cache.

We enjoyed attending the 2015 MEGA event.
It was a blast caching in an area we hadn't ever cached before.
We found some great caches and had a fantastic time.
So cool to see streams of cachers all over the place.
Thanks for the hide.

Second cache for our homebound journey after attending the Melbourne Mega Event, a nice quick find. A very good sized container allowed me to drop a travel bug that hopefully will be moved on quickly as I have held on to it way too long!

My apologies for the extremely late log. I have let myself get badly behind and am now trying to catch up.
Arrived in Melbourne this morning and had been trying to work my my up to 299 caches ahead of the Mega tomorrow. Unfortunately, a number of DNFs meant I was only able to reach 298 before heading out to my accommodation in Cranbourne this evening. Therefore, I was very happy to discover this one only a short distance from where I was staying!
I love this style of container; it's very solid! TFTC

Here for the Mega and out caching with Lgoody & roostaman.
So much variety in the caches and in the weather!
Very happy that we did not experience any rain to speak of.
Great to cache in a new environment.

I was in the area today with my two boys and my oldest moving from cubs to scouts shortly, insisted we stop here to look for this cache. Parking near GZ it didn't take long before we were sitting under the shade of a tree and signing the log.
Thanks for the hide.
