Logs
An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -
No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.
Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.
We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.
This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today
As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

A string of DNFs and a failure from the CO to address the missing (destroyed) cache suggests this one should probably be archived?
This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Had a quick look around, but nothing around the vicinity or what seemed the only logical hiding place at the posted coordinates. From all the DNFs here, I think we can confirm it is highly likely it had been muggled / missing / destroyed. Can the CO visit to confirm its status?
Is this it? If so, RIP little buddy. I fear your cache may have been chewed up by a lawn mower 
DNF today. Gardens have been mowed and no camo around to cover a cache. May need to check if still there.
Logbook is damp after the recent rain but still managed to sign it with my shonky biro. Cache was lying in the open. Maybe this location needs a little more careful thought about a better place to hide it.
Easy find, seemed to be too much in the open, have tried to cover with some cammo. TFTC 
Found #1648.
This morning, I went to Woodville West for an appointment. After that, I tried four caches nearby, and found the last three.
Parked around the corner, and walked to GZ. Well, it seems nowhere to hide the cache, except there. No need to check the hint, to find this cache -- it's obvious.
Tried to signed the log, and unable to do so. The cache container is now an ant nest... Countless ants came out of the cache container...
Anyway, thanks for the cache, Heath Loxton.

Was quick and easy. Covered it up a bit though with bark otherwise it will be muggled quickly
Found it! +1
Had to think outside our original idea of where to look. Log needs replacing, will try come again next week if no one else does it in the mean timde

Almost gave up but then checked the obvious place. Log will need to be replaced as it is soaked through. Tftc
17:10 after work I arrived at this cool li'l hide 
SL at 17:10 in fading light with rain showers everywhere but here thankfully, on TGIF 14 July 2017. Added a couple of small moisture-munchers to keep the log within dry [^] TFTC Heathie Loxton

I visited the site after reading some previous logs and i have found the cache in its proper hiding spot just waiting to be found by more enthusiastic cachers.
I appreciate the action of a fellow cacher in changing the cache vessel to an eclipse mints tin.
This is a general reminder to all cachers, in order to allow your find count to be high as possible and to avoid wasting my time on unnecessary cache maintenance, please make your very best efforts to find the cache before logging a did not find.
Thank you,
Heathie.

Called past during a bit of a detour on my way to the airport. Thanks for the cache Heathie Loxton!
Found it with the Oshea Kids. might need to change the container to a weatherproof one!
Day Twenty one of our holiday, BettyBoo3747 and I are still at Semaphore in Adelaide. Deadly treadlies left in the garage today and into the geocar and around the suburbs for our caching.
I didn't have the new co-ordinates in the GPSr so I didn't find much of a log!
Fortunately BB did have, and we were soon across the park to the real hide.
Thanks, Robmc.

#11945. Day 21 of our SA holiday. Another day off the bicycles and we decided to meander southwards to West Lakes and our turnaround point ended up being Henley Beach. I think we need to ride down to HB and back again one day soon. We were muggled out in quite a few areas by kayakers, sailers, fishermen and council workers - so annoying when that happens.
Fortunately I was looking at my iPhone caching App as Rob was finding nothing at the old GZ. We punched some new numbers in and had in fact, already spied the new hiding place as we wandered across the park.
Thanks Heathie Loxton

Hello Geocachers;
I have been really busy with other commitments during year 12 in 2016 and then the always busy Christmas and new year period. Therefore i have not had much time for cache maintenance, especially when ground zero is in an exposed location for this site.
Please note that i will endeavor to have this cache replaced within the next 10 days, i have visited the site and i am aware that the bench has been removed and replaced and the cache removed too.
I apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Happy caching.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Cache for the day required and once again had to head in this direction at lunchtime to reach the nearest un-found traditional to the office in town. Headed to the area with trepidation as it is school holidays and I did expect that the reserve would be full of muggle kids playing. However, arrived on site and not a soul in sight. Phew.
Wandered over to GZ and started searching however the GPS was taking its own good time to settle down and I was wandering all over the place. Eventually read the logs and suddenly it settled down and something in one of the logs made sense and then had hands on the cache. Extracted log, signed and replaced. Rehid the cache ion its hide and headed back to the office to continue the day. Nice little reserve with sun shining like the smiley about to appear on the map.

Holidaying with the family at Adelaide Shores. Needing a caching fix I left them in the pool and headed out solo! After my Willcocks excitement earlier I continued on with a few more. A nice quick find. Thanks
Found during a smilie hunt in the western suburbs.
Thanks for the cache Heathie Loxton

Lovely day for caching with my niece Bianca. Very happy we are the first to find this cache in its new spot. Caching rules!
Hello Geocachers;
This geocache has been replaced and is now located about 5 metres south of the original coordinates, in a more discrete location. Please take care on site and once again you can enjoy finding this cache.

Hello Geocachers;
I was doing site inspections today to audit any backlogged cache maintenance. On this site i have noticed that the cache is no longer in place and nor is the brick that the cache was hidden under. I have done a thorough search around the entire area near ground zero but the brick and cache is gone.
Could any new people who have successfully found this cache please log "Found" and state the location and anyone who could not find this cache please log "Did not find". This will assist me in organizing a replacement cache for this site if need be.

Not a muggle in sight. Sometimes you can be lucky.

Friday night and not wanting to stay home, I contacted GoodLuck to see if she wanted to indulge in some caching. Surprisingly, she said 'yes' 
but I'm sure that she had no idea what she was letting herself in for 
However I did behave myself and had her back at her car before midnight! [^]
GoodLook found a few more caches than me and I found 13, so all in all it was a successful cache run on a beautifully balmy evening with stars above 
Loved that between us, we found every cache we looked for ...... so not a single DNF all night! 
Another quick find and yet another barking dog.
Still, it's always nice to get another smiley
