Tftc, nice one on our trip back to Junee. Thanks Farmers 5 we love your caches.

The last find on a lovely sunny winter's day. tftc.

Thankyou for the hide

Day 14 of my interstate trip. Today I left Oura and continued to head closer to Sydney but only got as far as Grenfell where I stay for the night. I managed to find 20 caches today and ended up with 2 DNF's today.A quick find while traveling the New South Wales country side.TFTC The Farmers 5

Easy find

Found on our way to West Wyalong. Thanks for the history lesson. Very interesting. Tftc

The hide location feels very exposed but the locals were still in bed so easy find and retrieval.

Found with Margo. Alls well. Tftc.

was tricky! for those that need help look low.

#20923. Day 1 of a short holiday over the border in NSW with Robmc and the geodoggies. We had a pleasant journey gathering caches along the way before arriving in Cootamundra for the niight. Enjoyed the sunshine and the scenery once the fog lifted.

Unfortunately we did not sight the sillver post or plaque near GZ. Interesting information on the cache page. This is certainly a beautiful old building and it is a shame that it is no longer in use. Might be time to update the cache notes to remove the wording that the cache is a 400ml Sistema.

Thanks The Farmers 5

Day one on our short trip north to find some better weather. BettyBoo3747, the geodoggies and I are heading to Cowra and back. Tonight we have made it as far as Cootamundra.

Interesting history of the familiar face on the $10 note.
Might need to alter the description about the cache size though.
Thanks, Robmc.

A trip to check out some of the awesome places in NSW and grab some old caches. TFTC.
Building is looking neglected. Shame. Interesting history.

Found on the trip home after another awesome, annual QOGM event. On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird (aka Mrs Geo, Salty Chook, the Old Boiler, Old Chook, Dirty Bird, Angry Bird & occasionally even Love Bird). It’s a great day for caching.

Appreciate the research undertaken to bring us to this spot. I’ve spent many a tenner and I’m sure this find will be remembered next time I have a note in my hand

Thanks The Farmers 5 for taking time to set out and maintain this hide and for showing us this very special part of the world

That took longer than it should but glad I had my gloves and there was a hint. TFTC and SL at 10:50am.

What a lovely old building. SL at 11.34am #9797 TFTC The Farmers5 as we travel towards Junee & Cootamundra

The old school looks a bit sad, and would have been a magnificent building. Mr SKI spent many years teaching in small rural school like this one and is always sad to see them closed. They were always the centre of rural communities.

It was time to move on from Wagga, so we said goodbye to good friends and set off on our way to Cootamundra via Bethungra. Its still bitterly cold, but thankfully today there were only a few showers and we managed to dodge most of them.
It was mainly traditionals today although we managed an interesting Virtual and a couple of multis.
All in all a casual day traveling with plenty of stops..

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache The Farmers 5.

Quick find with SJG66 on our Wagga Tour. TFTC

Found with O319 caching around Wagga for the day

TFTC

TFTF. Careful of spiders hanging from the trees around the place. Walked through a couple of big webs getting to where the cache is located

Tftc, quickly found this one.

Didn’t find, somebody lives here so I didn’t want to be caught snooping around

2 years ago I dnf'd this cache
Today - muggles near GZ
WTH!!!

Day 9 of our NSW Road Trip and today we are caching from Wagga Wagga to Parkes via Temora. Just a few cache finds today as we need to be in Forbes to meet up with a good friend for lunch. Thanks to the COs for the placement and maintenance of your caches - it is really appreciated.

Out and about caching today from West Wyalong to Parkes. Due to the number of logs found, I have done a generic log. Thank you to all CO's for placing the cache in the locations where found. Found cache and signed log. TFTC

A lovely old school building, such a shame it is in disrepair. Thanks for the history lesson and good hint.

Tft$ SL easy find.

To many spiders

I keep trying my best with these caches but coming up short. Difficult in these conditions with long grass and trees, and big spiders hanging everywhere you look. Will try again in cooler weather!

Interesting history. Love old country school. Went to one myself!!! TFTC

New log sheet added .
Good luck !

Coordinates spot on which made for another quick find this afternoon, thanks.

I joined a weekend away to 'The Rock' with Fitzy_1965, MinnieK, Nibletricecakes, Gliss! & Cosmonaut97. The main aim was a climb up the Lion of Kengal and the caches in the Olympic Highway Stock Reserve. We achieved everything on the agenda, even though some of took longer than expected. We had a great weekend staying at Baby&MrsGopher's place where the hospitality was fantastic. On Sunday afternoon I headed out by myself to Henty and Wagga Wagga. On Monday I spent the morning in North Wagga and on the Coolamon Highway.

My last day around the Wagga Wagga area took me to the northern areas.

Thanks for the cache The Farmers 5

No luck for me here today. Might give it a go later

TFTC. The cache needs a little TLC... paper is wet and destroyed. There was other plastic film paper which gremlindaddy wrote on. No room for swaps.

Awesome!! TFTC

A quick find but on log inside it so placed a piece of note book paper in it.TFTC

Well placed. We really enjoyed this one.

Found it. Quick one. TFTC

Was bird banding near West Wyalong but it was a very quiet weekend so we headed off early. Did cache maintenance on a couple of local caches I own, got a coffee and looked for wildlife at the Wyalong wetlands before heading home. With the time I had I could get a few caches so the route was slightly longer via Temora. Turned out to be a TB day so traded a few which was nice.

This has always been missing when I have passed so I thought I would take advantage of recent replacement and sign it before it goes again. This is weird spot - access via a private drive way, the school is vacant but the house behind is clearly occupied. Glad I found this smaller cache quickly (would be a bugger in longer grass) and so could quickly get out of dodge.
TFTC The Farmers 5

All about coming from the right direction. Thank you for replacing owner! A happy find

A new cache is now in place with fresh log sheet.
A new hint added.Good luck.

Unfortunately we couldn’t find it

Not enough time, kids needing a toilet

Once again farmers five seem to have too many dnfs and now us. Spent some time looked all along the fence with no luck. Did the owner check it himself? Maybe co - ords are off?

Cache check organised and all good. Clue added to page. Good luck .

Nibletricecakes and I spent a bit of time looking here but did not come away with a find. Beautiful chapel nearby - almosts makes ya wanna get hitched. Lol.

Sadly no luck for Gliss!! And I today, but we did enjoy a walk around the Brucedale chapel gardens whilst we were here. Will try again next time Tftc

no go today

Wagga Wagga March 2019 trip. Day 3. The day started with and event and ten took me North to Coolamon to make a start on those caches before finishing in Wagga with the water pond caches. I spent quite awhile poking around in the deep leaf litter, listening to the householder shouting about something, hopefully not me.

Thanks.

Found with nissan 65 on a few days off work so we decided to get away and do some caching. So dry out here. Thanku for the cache

Love the history and old school house but just could not find the cache ️

We had a thorough look here without any luck

T4TC - I love a good history lesson and a beautiful building.
Thanks Farmers 5.

Headed out to Brucedale for a catchup with Mary today. Now that the school has closed down I need her help to learn some new things, they say that I am unable to go to a normal school, I disturb the other kids to much. Upon arriving she welcomed me in and we had a little chat and some morning tea before we began. Some of the things she helped me with today was my maths and grammer.

We finished up, talked about some of the past and what will be happening in the future then arranged for my next visit. My ride from [@AngusnmumyAdventures](http://coord.info/PRRD6GG) was there to collect me and we headed home.

Thanks for this cache The Farmers 5 Lil Donna

A late Friday drive to Temora/Wagga and just a few finds on the way. I certainly Like caching more in daylight!

That old building would make a lovely house. TFTC The Farmers 5.

First one since leaving Tasnania

Tftc

Great info, easy find for me today

The Lost Wanderers were heading north to attend the society event of the yea with Skullracing when we needed to make a pitstop. A convenient cache happened to be along the way that had a great history lesson attached. Mr Lost Wanderer and some other bloke from Skullracing whose name we can never remember jumped out and made a quick find. Thanks for the cache Farmers 5.

We were on our way to sunny Temora with the Lost Wanderers to attend a very good friends 40th birthday, and this one popped up on the screen so wheeled in for a look.
The two dads jumped out to make the quick find while the mums tried to keep the kids in the cars. After a small amount of circling, the cache was found and log book signed while a close by dog was having a loud chat with the wind.
Thanks Greg for the history lesson.
Cheers

Nicely hidden cache. Found it with VikingNav while exploring the area today. I dropped a TB. Thanks for the fun cache!

Stopped here while on the way south. Thanks for teaching this yank some of Australia's history. TFTC

Tftc. Great cache.

A favorite point for this one from me. I had thought this was going to be just another edge of the road cache as I picked my way through the long grasses. My was I in for a treat! What I observed was a beautiful old school house, something I hadn't expected and was delighted to find. I quickly pulled up the cache description and began to read all about some of the original settlers of this area. Fantastic. I do hope the wonderful piece of history isn't going to be allowed to go into disrepair.

The cache was found easily, it was visible as I approached, I signed the log and carefully replace where I had found it.

Found this cache on our way to the OZ Geo Muster at Morisset NSW.

Ian & Sue - Team Pathfinder uses T.P. to sign smaller logs.

Found by Mary & David at 0915. Stayed in town last night and today we're on our way north again, to eventually attend the Oz GeoMuster. Lovely sunshine already, and we can hear the magpies but no cows. Mary was delighted with the historical cache notes. Earns a FP. Our thanks to The Farmers 5.

I found this one on a road trip from Vic to the NSW mid north coast. An easy find. TFTC.

Day 4 of our caravan trip going South from Queensland . Heading towards my birthplace, Culcairn.

Tftc

Found it on my way to Melbourne with bikesu.Tftc

I got a bit nervous about this one, as I was outside someone's house...then I skulked up the fenceline and saw the old school house, and then the cache. TFTC.

Tftc

TFTC. Appreciated the history!

Lef Nanango Qld on Monday 6th November and made it to Alexandra on Friday 17th. We cached our way via Dubbo, Shepparton, Bendigo and Canberra. Now on our way home and staying in Parkes tonight. Naturally we are caching our way back both GC and GCA.
Parked safe here and after a short walk arrived at the fence and I soon had the container in hand. All good. TFTC The Farmers 5

On the way to June for a couple days out this morning to pick up a few caches we missed on the last run.TFTC

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one of the list

Another great day of caching in Wagga Wagga and Junee. I stopped to log this find. Thanks for the cache.

Suscoe was out and about in the Riverina today in the very good company of Phetlern.
It was a very cold start to the day with sub zero temperatures, but this slowly gave way to a sunny day which felt warmish at times.
We headed north of Wagga today and had a great day out travelling the country roads.
Thanks to The Farmers 5 for this hide, a favourite from us for the importance of this location. Well done for this one and nice to say hello to you as well this evening.
Getting dark now, time to head back to the warmth.

16:56
Along with Suscoe, we made our way to Junee via the "Friendship Run". The weather was perfect, allowing us to seek out a variety of caches, some of which were very sneaky. As always the co'ordinates lead us to a place with significant historical connections.

Thanks The Farmers 5 for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Looked up and there it was. Quick find tftc

Found while tavelling south towards home today. A clever hide that I overlooked at first.

TFTC. We had to drive into Wagga Wagga from Temora this morning. The trip in was a quick hour. It took us 2 1/2 hours to drive back as we attempted caches along the Olympic highway.
We have previously read about Mary Gilmour in Silverton, this sort of completes the Gilmour history for us, or at least closes a loop.

Out for a short ride on the bike with BAB - decided on catching up on a few caches that I didn't have at this time - Some marvelous history here - The chapel and grounds are absolutely beautiful - Cache in good condition - TNLN - Log signed - TFTC

Had to take a few people over to Wagga and I had some free time. Why not go and get a cache or 2.
Nice quick find on my way home. TFTC

Wagga day 2, Wilks Park
We had a great morning out caching with Coongoola. It was the TD Friendship trail that we had targeted today. Then continuing onto Junee.
An amazing woman
A good variety of caches & DT locations visited.
Thanks for placing this cache The Farmers 5

We're on our way to the Mega at Alice Springs .

Thanks for placing this cache The Farmers 5. This is number 1539 for us now.

Out and about with The Drovers to grab some caches in the Junee and Wagga area today and this was one of them.

Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

TFTC The Farmers 5

Ventured out to grab a cache for October.
Didn't find the plaque, but found the cache after a short search.
Signed and returned as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, The Farmers 5, for us and others to find.

I can't even begin to imagine living in those times - slower travel with dust, heat and flies, not many places to purchase food or accommodation and then living in the heat near Broken Hill
A favourite because it makes me think and appreciate some of our modern conveniences
TFTC

Ask me if you want to know what name I **signed the log book** transferring finds to this new caching name. Was OCW and as part of “Team” Throsbyonchurch.

I found this cache jointly with TOC and now I have my own account I am claiming my fair share of the finds. I can cache on my own now. As I didn't have a caching name so there's no log book for me. Thank you for the hide.

Tftc

Found it . -- 4:21 PM -- SL TNLN TFTH. Thanks for bringing us here.
Cache in good condition.
Travelled to Junee for The Farmers 5 events at the Monte Cristo and the Licorice/Chocolate Factory. Lived in Junee for a few months, returned home for a couple of years and moved to Wagga for 3 years and returned home again. Love it down here. So we were hopeful of bagging a good number of caches this weekend.

*** NO trackables found in this cache ***

Co ords were spot o for this cache. Enjoyed reading the history of this lady - times must have been hard back then . Aren't we lucky to be born in this era with all the mod cons. Spent some time chatting to the lady next door and learnt more about the area. Thanks.

this was a nice cache easy find tftc

Easy Find at a great location

10636. Found during a caching run down to the Wagga region this ANZAC Day long weekend.

Day 3 of my trip was nearly over, so I started heading home and this was the next cache on my list. Parked nearby and walked in to GZ. A quick find at GZ. An interesting area to visit and to have a look around. Log was signed, cache returned and I headed off to the next one.

Thanks again The Farmers 5 !
