I was on my way home to Melbourne after spending a few days in the Snowy high country with the MX-5 Club. After taking the opportunity to stop off in Wodonga to find the caches I needed to help me qualify for the **WCW - The 80/20 Rule Challenge**, I was now heading down the Hume. In need of additional caches in Strathbogie Shire for the same challenge, the timing was right for a "leg stretch" stop... or six... to make some finds.Having had to wait out seemingly forever for muggles at the other cache at this rest stop, this one was startling quick... no one around at all so I didn't have to try and be discrete. A nice and easy find...Thanks **Robmc** for this cache.

Ballarat Geo-Tour Trip

Day #1 of 4 (15/9)
What a trip! 10 hours of travel while finding the occasion Geocache along the way. Before you ask, yes I did plan a trail which included 12 caches. These caches focused on collecting as many LGA’s as I could. I also made sure to find: GC7A, because I have never found a cache that was hidden in 2000 before. All caches were quick finds and were fun. When I got into Ballarat I found a letterbox cache near my motel before getting dinner. TB visit. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches of the caches I found today and for allowing them to bring me and others enjoyment. Big Grin TFTC’s Big Grin

While traveling south to Ballarat, I stopped off here to find this cache. I walked to this one from the picnic area while waiting for muggles to move so I can find the other cache here. A nice quick find at GZ and now to find the other one here. Big Grin

We continued today our tour back in Victoria, AUS, and thereby searched, found and logged this interesting Traditional-Cache.

The weather was - said in one word – simply best. The good hidden caches and the being on holidays kept us the whole day in a good mood.

The cache (D1.5, T1.5) had good coordinates, and thus was easy to find. The logbook was okay, and allowed easy logging.

Thanks to Robmc for the generation of this nice cache Travelling South - Way Away (with the proper agenda), for leading us here and for showing us this funny location as well as the ongoing maintenance of this cache.

PS: Please forgive us the uniform log which is needed due to timing problems - if necessary special actions and happenings are there described where they appeared.

Greetings from Germany together with the hope to meet somewhere like event or wood.

Off to the Mega with Spiffy- and many others. All caches have been presolved in the 14 month lead up and other interesting caches flagged for collection to assist with various challenges or just because they looked fun!

Today was go home and this broke our trip nicely.

Thanks to Robmc for the fun and the adventure.

Very happy to be heading to another Mega and this year we took leave the day before and after Easter to make it much more relaxing and enjoyable. Have to do that next Mega as well.
Today was sadly our last day here and before heading off I attended my caching buddies event. To break up the boring drive home along the Hume highway we targeted certain caches to help with a challenge we are working on and this was one of them.
Thanks Robmc for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

The mega is over but wait there’s more caches to be found!

Last day of the road trip adventure with fleabag- and spiffy-

Bunadoorian and I were on a road trip to Bright today. On the way home I needed to swap over driving so stopped here. Bunadoorian said there are two caches here! Unfortunately one was being guarded by a table full of muggles eating their lunch. So we came and found this one instead. TFTC Robmc
 
28-Jan-23
There are 2 caches in this area, we tried for both but the other cache was being guarded by a mob of muggles. But this cache was away from all the muggles in the parking area. It was found quite easily in a traditional geocaching hide. TFTC.

Found with fitzy_1965 on an interstate weekend away collecting counties.

Today saw us travel from Oxley Reserve near Wangaratta to Hamilton in the States west. Our main target was a Community Celebration Event at lunch time in Ballarat and as many counties and virtuals as we could along the way. The day was a mix of sun and rain which kept us on our toes and then, the prospect of not finding a free camp area for the evening, saw us splurge on a motel room. We found a fantastic kebab shop for dinner…I think we will be back in Hamilton LOL.

Of the caches we tried, they were found quickly and easily. Thanks so much to each and every CO.

28,056. Found with minniek during a caching run down to Ballarat and southwest Victoria in general.

Day 2. After camping overnight at Oxley we continued heading south. A quick stop here where there was two for the price of one - gotta love that. This morning the rest stop was empty which certainly helped out for these two finds. This one was a nice quick find exactly as the clue describes. Stamped the log, replaced the cache as found, then continued on to the next one on the list.

Thanks Robmc !! One day I might actually finish finding all these cool rest stop caches down the Hume.

Hi
 
22-Jan-22
We left Oxley this morning and bunny hopped our way up the highway stopping at all the rest stops to find the caches in them. Much nicer than just getting in the car and heading straight down the highway.
The cache is in good condition.

This will probably be my last couple of caches before calling it a night and heading through to Melbourne. Grabbed the one a couple hundred metres north, then headed down here. With a trusty spider web bashing stick in hand, I made my way to GZ and quickly had CIH. Dropped off a TB to start it's adventure. TFTC!
