Because of the pandemic, many caches became
unmanageable in the time
needed to race out to them and I have not been able to
justify the time to keep this cache going.
I know you may be sad that this cache,
like many of it’s partners is going, but
sometimes it is an old cache that makes way for a new one.
Until next we meet on the caching trail, have an
extra special time caching. KD.

Am really enjoying walking this trail. Not too busy on a Tuesday morning.
Back on the OCRP again, love this walk. Looking in the wrong spot but Sonya spotted it soon enough. Thanks for the cache kangadrew72
Well, with a long weekend ahead, there was only one thing to do. Start early! So on Thursday afternoon we set off for this series of caches that had been on our list for some time, hoping that there would be fewer muggles on a ‘work day’. It was a beautiful afternoon to be outdoors. Caught this one on our return trip for the day. Also noticed these strange nests or clusters on the trees at GZ.

Out for some fresh air today and to finally finish off this series as best I could for the day.
Thanks to kangadrew72 for the cache and the fun.

5 for 5. Interesting parasite on the trees near gz, I winner what it is. Lots of cute wattle birds around! Tftc
Out again on a mission to gain as many caches as we can while merkinofloki is on holidays and so we spied this series for a good chunk of finds and some much needed laughs and catchup time :3
My 1200 find YAY!!

Nice quock spotto with nyochi, 5th for the day and her 1200th cache! Congrats mcmerk...
Back today to complete another section of the outer circle rail power trail on our way home from collecting a solved play at home Wherigo. It has been a couple of years since we did the middle section of the trail, so today we came to do the start, with two scooters and a skateboard to propel us along. Starting from the beginning, we did 1, 2 and 3 before returning to the car, picking up some solved puzzles, then parking near number 6 before coming here for another easy find. Now to continue in the direction of the beginning to get number 4.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this power trail kandadrew72.

Another on our walk. Log nearly completely full but we managed to find the last spot. TFTC
The sun was shining in Melbourne once again so I set off to find a new trail to get some Vitamin D and some steps. I decided to do the first part of the Kew Outer Circle Railway Powertrail.
A nice quick find. Maybe one more before a late lunch.
Thanks kangadrew72 for the cache.

I am now finding these by "wandering vaguely around GZ and suddenly look at a tree at eye height" manouvre. TFTC!
Found it ... like that the owner has done maintenance and replaced all the logs ... we are the first! TFTC
The first time took me ages and I failed. The second time took me ages but this time success. It's very well camouflaged for what it is.
A quick find while out for a for a stroll with the youngest.
This one took a bit longer to find but we made it in the end.

Pleased to be able to get back into caching in the last week or so after a 110 day streak of no activity, I did this cache and all those in the OCRP series over the course of three thoroughly enjoyable caching walks. I initially did this trail on a walk from Booroondarra park to Fairfield Boathouse and back at the end of October, but I was at the tail end of a 28 day step challenge then, so more interested in steps than caches. I ignored the series then and only later realised how many caches I had walked past that day!
This time I again started at Booroondarra Park, so did the series in reverse order. Given all the caches in this series and the fact that I am catching up on logs a few days and lots more caches later, these logs will be pretty generic - sorry about that! I will add in details where I remember them, especially for those at the end of the series where the hides got trickier.
Thanks for putting all these out and looking after them. For all of them - TFTC

Easy find. Log probably needs a refresh as there's lots of paper jammed in there
