Out in the PeuGEOt today with little littlecogs on the mission of getting our 500th cache.TFTC

Out with Cogs06 on a quest for 25 caches.TFTC

On my way to St Arnaud for 3 or 4 nights. Enjoying my stay here. Two weeks left before going home

My last find for the day as I was driving to my accommodation in St Arnaud. Thank you for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment,

Heading out for a lovely family day out exploring some of the area, made our way here, TFTC and the fun

This caches guardians greeted me nicely, tiny ants everywhere. A quickly signed the log and replaced it so they could continue doing their job.TFTC Nards NugglesKeep smiling

Nice quick, easy vinyl. Looks like a good year for harvest.

Found it thanks

TFTC nice easy find

Nice easy start to the morning

Found today log was a little wet. Thank you

Heading off from Rutherglen for a two day trip to Millicent and this was my next stop. Cache was found without however I suspect it's been underwater...or water has got it. Good news though it's basically dry.

Thanks for this one Nards Nuggles...

Thanks. Log is a little bit damp. Think I would avoid this one if it was summer due to snake habitat

Found

Great cache thanks

Nice cache.

This turned into a bit of an adventure. First I walked along the road then realised unless I wanted drenched feet it would be better to walk along the old railway line from near where we parked, then I got down on the other side just in case it was too steep for me nearer the hide. It was a great, fun hide which I had to access through long grass and lots of mossies due to water by the side of road. Everything was in good condition.

On our way to the Mega with shop in tow. After an overnight stop in Marnoo where we narrowly escaped a rather large Fallen branch just in front of the car (That would have made a fair noise but we didn't hear it!...There's a joke in there somewhere,,) we made our way to St Arnaud for a spot of Breakky and found a few on the way..A thankfully quick find as the Mozzies here are insane!!! TFTC

Flowcon

We are on our maiden voyage in our caravan but have stayed close to home and the dealer in case we have any teething problems.

Had to make a trip from St Arnaud to Horsham today to purchase a new mask for my CPAP. A Sunday repair job with super glue and gorilla tape just didn't do the job.

A quick find on our way back to St Arnaud, it was far to wet to find any caches on the way to Horsham.

Day three of our short South Australian trip with BettyBoo3747 and the geo-doggies.
The weather was a lot nicer today, but it was a traveling day - St Arnaud to Patchewollock.
A few AdLabs and a few caches near the road.

We didn't stop in Marnoo today, just traveling through.
Stopped to grab this quick cache though.
Thanks, Robmc.

#18842. Day 3 of our Vic/SA trip with Robmc the geodogs and our bicycles. A blue sky day today but still cold. A day spent travelling from St Arnaud to Patchewollock doing some AdLabs and various other caches along the way.

We had just pulled over to let large tanks pass by when Rob jumped out and I realised there was a cache right here. A quick find, added our names to the log book and continued on our way.

Thanks Nards_Nuggles

Nice easy find. Should go missing this time. Didn’t sign to many ants.

Found it. Tftc . We have been doing the silo and water tower and tank art all over Victoria with a fair bit of caching as well.
Greetings from Adelaide

Full of swaps

Found as we head to St. Arnaud

Many thanks Nards_Nuggles for providing and maintaining this game piece for our enjoyment.

found with gridge98 on a holiday in Victoria, after Tasmania.

Found with hevwalker on way home, parked in the large car parking space which was perfect for the car and van and walked back to GZ. Thanks for the cache.

A short stop here today cache is all good

With the 2021 Wangaratta Mega completed we headed off back home towards SA via some back roads and the major towns along the way to collect a few caches and also have a look around.

Thanks for the cache

Found while stretching my legs on the way to South Australia for work

Of course you stop if you see a drive by. But you have to be alert - don't you!!??

Thanks to Nards_Nuggles and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]

A nice quick grab as we drove by. TFTC

Nice little spot on the way to the Silo art trail, thank you

Easy find. TFTC

A qick find along the old railway line, thanks for placing an interesting cache SL, TFTC

Found it pretty easily, had a lot of fun

Found it with my dad, had lots of fun!

TFTC . Nards never ceases to amaze with his inventive geocaches. Quick find on our way to Stawell.

With travel plans disrupted due to border closures there was an opportunity to plan a caching trip and having been unable to attend last years mega it was decided to explore this area.

Found with gwd.aussie while out complete some challenges.

TFTC

On a road trip trying to complete some challenges.
And this one was on the list or it got in the way

Out caching with D@geo
Thank you for the hide Nards_Nuggles

Tftc

Tftc nice drive from dunolly

After parking in the nearby rest stop I made my way to GZ. I didn't realise until I was part way to the cache, but the old embankment beside the cache is actually the former Lubeck to Bolangum railway line which had a station at Marnoo.
I liked the manner in which the cache was hidden (nice to see something other than a container under a pile of sticks!) and soon had my name in the log book. TFTC.

Sailing thru on our silo trail adventure.

TFTC first timers nice easy one to start with.

Needs new sign in sheet.

Find #181@ 12:05pm on 9/2/20 nice to find big caches TFTC

I was looking for a cache to fit a TB, was only small but failed to fit it in a few other small and regular caches. No issues here... so much room to fit in the well stocked cache. Thanks for a full sized regular!

TFTC Nice size and easy to find. Left a couple of phone / ipod cases.

Well the Mega was over, my geobuddies headed back home and now I was off to SA to continue my geotrip solo

Stopped off on the way outta town as I was heading to SA. Quick find.

Thanks for the hide, Nards_Nuggles

As we wander the great land seeing the sights, this is one of the caches we have done.

As we wander we also stumble upon lovely events this weekend it was a Mega Great to see evereyone even had some fun

Thanks to Nards_Nuggles for placing the cache for us to find.

Found this one 8m east of where GPSr wanted me to be.

Thanks

Here in St Arnaud for the Mega event we had a great day caching and exploring the roads less travelled.

Cache and contents were in good condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

This was one of many caches we found while meandering towards St Arnaud for the 2019 Victorian Mega.
TFTC Nards_Nuggles.

Day 2 Natimuk to St Arnaud

quick find at gz.
Came over to the 2019 mega in St Arnaud with Mogni. We where joined by jj52, Aussie M and M plus others at different times over the mega weekend. Many caches where found over the course of the 8 day trip. Targeting multi's on the way there and back plus the challenge trail in Mount Beckworth reserve. The creative trails around St Arnaud where the highlight of the trip.

We are staying at St Arnaud for the Mega and chose to do some of the Silo Trail today. We had a great day out. Managed to get some great photos as well as grab some smileys.
It was a lovely day for this drive although a little distressing to see how dry it is up here.
Thanks to all the CO's that placed and maintain the caches for us to find. You gave us a most enjoyable day trip.

Staying in St Arnaud for the week for the mega.
Today we set off for a day trip to check out the silo art trail and various caches along the way.
Thanks for the placing and maintaining this cache, Nards_Nuggles

In St Arnaud for the weekend finding a few new caches since our last visit. We always love bush caching rather than city caching so we were very happy to be back and enjoying this great location.
Headed out west to pick up a multi that we had DNF’d last year and had the added bonus of this hide.

Thanks Nards_Nuggles for the placement.

School holidays always calls for at least one midweek caching day, so we are out today with the youngest (8) of TheFriendlyFords. Nice, easy find, tftc

Originally went to the wrong tree, but happened to be on the right side for once. TFTC.

Quick stop while on a long drive to Horsham. Nice to stretch the legs. TFTC

Had to wait for the rain to die down a bit before I made the dash to claim the find. Nice big cache with good camouflage hidden in plain sight. TFTC

Easy to find and nice quick walk

There was a deal of water laying around but we managed to find a path to GZ without getting that wet. Accurate coordinates and a bold hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Nards_Nuggles for the cache.

Suscoe was heading to Bendigo this morning.
We awoke to heavy clouds out to the west and thought we better get a wriggle on if we wanted to find a few caches before the rain arrived.
So in mild temperatures and a blue sky in the east we left Horsham and headed off.
The countryside looks green but a few empty dams highlighted the lack of rain.

Thanks to Nards_Nuggles for this hide. Knew it was probably one of yours after spotting it as we approached.
An interesting spot for a cache.
We wondered if this was an old railway alignment?

Found at 11:28 AM GAFF1.
On our way to St. Arnaud and we are stopping along the way to find the caches on this road.
A beautiful still chilly day as compared to yesterday that was clear but had a minus 50 degree wind chill factor [xx(]
Nice swaps in there that intrigued us - what are these stories about?
Thanks Nards_Nuggles

St Arnaud to Brim
Today we headed out going towards the silo art trail.
We stopped to Pick up caches were suitable with a caravan in tow.
It was good travelling amongst all the farming land.
Thanks for placing this cache Nards_Nuggles

Maintained

Wow that tree that has blown over was a very big one and we wouldn't like to have been driving along when it came down. Wow what a big cache, one of the biggest we have come across. saw it from aways away. TFTC. SL. Left a few swaps as the cache is big enought for them. Thanks for putting a cache way out here and making us stop. Cheers.

Stopped to stretch my legs as I journeyed by. Didnt take long to find the cache at GZ. Signrd log before making my way back to the car and continue my journey

Found it. Bit little of searching to find it

Another yay, found it!!

Needed to stretch legs as driving past here on Friday afternoon. Nice easy find.

TFTC

Found on another trek across the Nullarbor could not believe how much rubbish is on the side of this hwy
Tnlnsl
Tftc

We are heading out to do the silo trail today and stopping from time to time for a cache. this was the first, and we found it in good order.
TFTC.

In St Arnuad for a caching weekend but heading to Horsham for the night with Happy pants, grabbing some different hides, that we hadn't already found, as we meandered through some of the back roads. We made some great discoveries, clever hides and generally enjoyed the caches we found, which took us to some interesting places, that I wouldn't probably see if it wasn't for caching.. We enjoyed some fun and laughs along the way.

Driving through town at night and took the opportunity to stop and make this quick find under torch light.

Thanks Nards_Nuggles for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

Day 4 of my latest road trip through undiscovered regions in Vic and SA. Started a wet morning in Swanhill but the clouds dispersed and made way for blue skies and sunshine for most of the day until I reached Horsham where the rain started again, off and on to St Arnaud where I lay my head for the night.
A total of 27 trads today.

#19 A quick stop here, cold and wet so no danger of snakes or dehydration/heatstroke
Cache in good condition.

Thanks Nards_Nuggles

Since moving from New Zealand in 2016 I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T all multiple times.
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go to is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
I enjoy finding well maintained caches in fun and unique cache containers. No one likes finding a mint tin – but a find is a find after all.
Well she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, an d if she had to die
Tryin' she had one little promise
She was gonna keep
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
It was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
She could the cars roll by
Out on 441
Like waves crashin' in the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God it's so painful
Something that's so close
And still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl

But of moisture in container. Nice and easy find. TFTC

Found while tripping from St Arnaud to Mildura travelling via the Sola Art trail. This was my first find for the day and it is always nice to start off with an easyone. TFTC.
