Find #5179. Found @ 14:50 with The Good Lady Wife, skirrel, j-bean.

On a holiday getaway multi-day road trip with the family, traveling from Melbourne to Adelaide via Renmark and back to Melbourne.

Since our last cache was a DNF, we decided to actually make a find in the township. After a bit of looking j-bean made the find.

Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache Aussie Fun Seakers
 
12-Jun-22
Cold morning activity looking for a tiny cache. TFTC
 
15-May-22
dalerious and I hightailed it up to St Arnaud for the weekend, and as usual we had a full consignment of caches on our wishlist to try and sign. The majority was leaning my way, as there was a whole bag of Challenge caches for me to scratch my name into, as well as some down right quality mixes that sets St Arnaud apart from the crowd. More night caches than you can poke a stick at, and did I mention the wherigo's Smile. We sure are spoilt for choice here, that's for sure Razz.
This marks off another Aussie Fun Seekers BM, which we grabbed on the way back home. TFTC Smile which was found in good condition.
The bonus here is that I had to dnf this one back in 2019 and I have been waiting all this time to get back here to change a blue to yellow Smile.
 
15-May-22
Nothing unusual about watching over the footy grounds on the weekend with a pie in one hand and a hot coffee in the other.
It may have been a little odd though that catnap777 and I were the only ones there. Wink
With tummies lined, there was not a muggle in sight as we slipped out of the car to find this tiny cache that simply wasn't there the last time cat' was. Razz

TFTC Lorna. All good here now. [^]
 
02-May-22
The smallest micro we’ve ever had!! Walked past it thinking it was part of the building. TFTC!! Love Tassie
 
22-Apr-22
I’m having this week off as others at work had the Easter break off so it was my turn and another trip up North to Mildura was planned.
I was able to leave Melbourne nice and early to get a few caches in before reaching my destination for the night which was Culgoa.
I have driven through Wedderburn that many times and have never stopped to have a look.
My Grandmother’s sister used to have the post office and house when they were combined back in the 70’s and maybe 80’s and I Romberg visiting then.
Nothing going on at the oval today so after a couple of laps of GZ I soon spotted the sneaky cache.

Thanks Aussie Fun Seakers TFTC.

5th find, and this is our first micro find too. Missed it on the first look, went back and looked again and there is was. Didn’t have a pen so not signed. Brand new log so might try come back with a pen so we can sign it. Thanks a bunch! Miss 6 was very excited to find such a tiny “treasure”. (Told me off for not having a pen too).

Loved this cache as we play footy/hockey/netball here each season against Wedderburn. Kids enjoyed searching for this one and it didn’t take too long before they spotted it. Log is full so we didn’t log our find on it, TFTC
 
20-Nov-21
Quick find with tassie expat while exploring this nice area. Accurate coords but log is full. Thanks for placing it.

02-Jan-21
Love this Brownlow series. I have found quite a few and am hoping to recify a dnf nearby, caused by the footy being in action and too many people around. Found while staying at the Wedderburn caravan park which is fabulous.
 
26-Dec-20
Tftc. GPS played up a bit but got there. Very fun. Our first find since lockdown!
 
15-Nov-20
Came to watch the trots but they were not running today. Just kidding. Found quickly and on our way.
 
15-Nov-20
It’s little alright. That takes a while to rewind so a sit on the grass and as lovely. It’s so peaceful. Thanks
 
23-Oct-20
No sports happening here for the last few months because of COVID we presume. So no muggles to hinder our search today and we soon spied the sneaky fellow. SL at 1.45pm #7174 TFTC Aussie Fun Seakers - seems fitting to find a couple of Brownlow Medal caches at this time of the year and maybe even on this AFL Grand Final weekend!

Enjoying a meander down some roads we don't normally travel to grab a few caches on the way home. This one almost passed us by, but it showed itself in the nick of time. Many thanks for help making it an enjoyable day.

Mini road trip to Tresco this afternoon with Boo09, Neisha07 & Chan02.

A nice quick find here after lunch. TFTC

We started the day looking for some caches in Wedderburn. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Aussie Fun Seekers for the cache.
 
19-Nov-19
Found on my last day I Wedderburn I had to wait while a couple of teachers were taking some students for a walk which seem to go past the GZ then halfway into town then return back across the oval to the school. TFTC.

After a big day at the St Arnaud Mega I still had some time and more surprisingly some energy left to do a couple of caches before dark.
Totally deserted here so a nice easy find was made.
Thanks Aussie Fun Seakers for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

A weekend of caching with AlphaDeltaIndigo and Ying-Yang in St Arnaud, along with a heap of other people. We stayed at Wedderburn, and commuted to St Arnaud each day, and what an amazing area this was to cache in! We very much enjoyed our trip to the Northern Grampians Shire! My fifth Victorian Mega (sixth overall) and can't wait to come back next year and do it again!

This was find number 2 of 4 for the day for me. TFTC Aussie Fun Seakers!
 
15-Nov-19
First one for the day. Hope the weather improves or I will just want to stay under. Tftc

14-Nov-19
Boort to St Arnaud
Time to head to our final location, we stopped on the way finding caches where we thought itm was suitable to stop with a caravan on.
Arrived into St Arnaud at 11am & have set up camp in the overflow section ner the club.
Following lunch & a rest we headed out of town to find some of the many caches around.
Thankyou for placing this cache Aussie Fun Seakers

13-Nov-19
Found while traveling to the St Arnaud mega with Dr Owl. A quick stop to break the journey.

Thanks for the cache Aussie Fun Seekers.
 
13-Nov-19
An Owl and a Fish set off on a caching adventure to St Arnaud. As this decision was made too late to get good accommodation in the town, Wedderburn was chosen as their base of operations. After settling in and a huge meal at the pub, Owl set out to find the last few caches before her next milestone. This was the first and proved elusive until the Fish put his hands on it. And this deserves the traditional South Australian nano rant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_povMw8DWSI

With pwala and crank1 at St Arnaud Mega.
Today we drive the car "country" to see plenty farm and animals, with such lovely weather.

11-May-19
Spent ages looking for this cache , could not locate the little b...........! Hope to have time tomorrow for another look around.
 
07-May-19
Could not find next time… wrong leg ?
 
30-Apr-19
Yep. It's there. GPS was out a couple of metres. The hint helped as long as you have the correct leg. TFTC.
 
29-Apr-19
this is a bit of a late log but I was heading back to Melbourne from Charlton and dropped in to hunt the caches here at the trotting track. This was the first. I actually drove into the reserve expecting a road around the track but had to drive on the actual trotting track! Took it really easy, don't want to churn it up, and drove around to within a few metres of GZ. Had a bit of a look around the obvious structure and after a look at the hint, had the cache in hand quite quickly. Thanks to Aussie Fun Seakers for this one
