Found by Mary and David at 15:00. On our way to SA to see our daughter and family. We'll never get there at this rate. Always time for just one more cache. Our thanks to Nards_Nuggles.
TFTC. We are camped at Green Hill. Lake Ararat for the long weekend as we make our way slowly to Penola. An overcast morning with promise of sun today. Decided to take a trip out to Stawell to complete the Adventure Lab and pick up other caches that have been placed since our last trip out this way. A productive day with 8 finds as well as the Adventure Lab.
We had not planned to come out to the 37th parallel but it was a pleasant day for a drive. Find was made quickly.

Found this a few weeks ago with my daughter and forgot to log it. The area had allot of water in so had to walk to the closest drove way to cross the water. Once over the water my 4 year old quickly had it in hand.
Found while driving between Sealake and Ararat. Made a quick find while being closely supervise by a sheep that came over to the fence to check me out. I think it had seen it all before because it soon walked off. TFTC.
Spending our first Christmas together with AlexiKatty and our first trip to halls gap trying to stay on target for my milestone for the Wangaratta mega in January. It's a nice day and beautiful to be out hear on this sunny day. Very happy to add this smile to my map.

A quick find and sign as we head out to do a little bit of Easter exploring. TFTC!
After a crazy year, it’s time to get away for a bit of R&R, and of course a cache or two.
Day two. With rain on the horizon, today I opted to explore in Sebastian.
I quite like this latitude! 37 is a most excellent number!
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache, Nards_Nuggles

With a bright and early start from home we headed towards the Southern Wimmera, to collect a few more scattered caches. Our route took more twists and turns than we had expected, luckily we were rewarded with a good number of those addictive little yellow smiles such as this, with comprehensive cache notes and quirky art work!
Our thanks to 'Nards_Nuggles' for adding this cache to the geo-gameboard.

What a nice big cache container. Left a heap of swaps for the kids. TFTC. SL. Thanks for putting a cache at this spot and making us stop. Nice walk through the big gum trees. Nice quick easy find on a nice warm day and on our way to Halls Gap for the weekend. Cheers.
Oh no !!
Not another geographically significant cache to find !! [:o]
I'll bet the sign isn't on the 37th
Sure 'nuff !!
First thing I *had* to do was find out where the real parallel was [:o)]
Yeah !! 'Bout 200 metres south of the sign
It's amazing any boundary fences are in the right place in Victoria
The boundary fence with SA is kilometres out !! [:o]
Putting me disappointment aside,
I strolled off into the forest for a beaut cache find,
*at the posted coordinates*
TFTC.
I forgot all about the discrepancies as I happily drove off to the north

Made the detour along the road to this cache, all of a sudden the GPS stopped and had to just search in luck, lucky I found somewhat of a geo path to GZ, CD he was found and is all good.

Making my way slowing back home following the awesome St Arnaud Mega event...
I reached Stawell yesterday and stayed overnight...
Most of today was spent collecting caches and checking out the sights...

A nice and quick drive by.... the nearby channel is completely dry... not like when we were here in August.
There was no way we could make our way past this flooded area

Found this arvo on a quick shopping trip from our house sit in Black Range. Decided to pop out to the Deep Lead area and grab a few out that way.
A nice easy find, with cache and contents in good condition.
Thanks Nard_Nuggles !

The ditch made life a little interesting.
Found a spot that wasn’t too wide, soggy or slippery to cross.
My 3rd find in this area while my son was at a nearby Scout camp.

There is a ditch between the car-park (side of the road and GZ), it is currently full of water, making access to the cache harder than usual.
Like the rest of the world, the younger Bruces would have loved this one in 2016. In 2019 it still was rated above average. Thanks Nards_Nuggles for this hide
A quick dash around after school tonight to grab a couple of smileys. Nice and easy, tftc!!
It was a bit wet today so I needed a solid leap to cross the water channel to get to it. Thanks nards_nuggles
Found It!
A quick find here. I guess this line was marked well before WGS84 existed...

Found with geograndkids – TheWalkers22 at 4.25 pm, Could not log find as paper was very wet and could not be written on. Needs attention.
Thankyou for the cache, the Pokémon cards are an awesome idea, really enjoyed this one, thankyou
Today our car is being serviced in Horsharm so we have headed to Stawell to finish off a few caches in the area. We wandered over the branch littered ground and soon found the cache and managed to return to the courtesy car safely. SL TFTC
It's quite warm today so shorts is the go but not ideal for cache searches but I managed... TFTC
Find #314 @ 3:51 pm
Wow, a thoughtful hiding spot, a great cache and a fun find. TNLNSL.

Great cache for the kids (out of snake season). Found with the geo boyfriend on our epic birthday junket. Tftc.
Suscoe headed out early for a big day of caching around the Ararat, Stawell, and Grampians area.
It was a beaut day compared with yesterday's chilly rain, sleet and cold.
We had a good bit of sunshine from time to time and also the occasional rainy reminders of yesterday.
We even caught up with Chooknchunk and Wozzle for a coffee and chat, the nice things that happen when we are out caching.
Thanks to Nards_Nuggles for this cache which made us aware of this parallel.
We had to do a spot of big drain jumping today to get to GZ.

Wasn't too sure if i was playing geocaching or pokemon go... tftc out and about on a sleep adventure
What a nifty hide. Had to wait for farmer Joe to go before I started the hunt. Went past GZ then turned around and spied the treasure, blends in well. Took a Pokemon pin will put him in another cache at some stage. TFTC.
On our way to Lake Boga for a few days to see the Catalina and airshow display, and do some fishing and caching as well. This was first cab off the rank. Nice novelty container. Didn't see any police or other emergency vehicles, large trucks, smaller delivery vehicles, farm vehicles, headers, caravans, council workers, snakes, kangaroos or even another car for that matter The cache was enough entertainment!! Thanks Nards Nuggles for the cache.
Found after spending time in and around Horsham for Christmas and we managed to grab a couple of caches while heading for home. Another quick park and grab while out this way in an area we have never travelled along. Thanks Nards Nuggles for the hide, cache and contents all good! Gotta catch em all!
