Today was spent in the company of the delightful echidna44 on a warm but overcast day. We had a vague plan as to what we hoped to achieve but kept making the occasional unplanned move. This was one of the latter, and just a quick drive by today. My previous thorough search had failed to find this cache where I found it first off today. Must have been missing last time. TFTC baluke
Per the last couple logs, container has taken a beating. The log book is a temporary sheet provided by another cacher.
May be worth a look.

Spent 25 min looking for this one about a month ago.
This time just started walking up and there it is.
Noted that non CO may have replaced due to muggleization.

Out nearby with ASP84 today who had previously made this find. The previous log noted that the cache was not as it should but we decided to check it out. On approach we saw the lid on the ground and the damaged log tucked nearby. Then ASP84 spotted the container on the ground a few meters off! We had ourselves a complete cache so added a temp log and popped the cache where it should be. Thank you
So much time spent at this cache without finding, probably a bit more than we should have. Just before giving up, we spotted the cache log on the ground with no container below the place where the hint is pointing. As we have no idea where this should have been or indeed what it was in, we have tucked it into a crack beside the hint place in a small crack but it will need some owner attention. Thanks from D & HA B-A
Great spot for a cache. Lots of cricket being played here. I hope they get some soup.
Trying to keep my little streak going, I targeted this one after work today. There were a few people about, but I could still search without too much concern. I looked in one place too long and then read the hint, walked around and spotted the cache. I added a piece of paper so this should be fine for a while. Thanks for the cache, baLuke. I hope you are well.
Found it! Plenty of space on the paper to log your find, but in awful condition, very hard to place back correctly.
Hey
Thx for the easy going cache
the next one who finds the cache, please put a new sheet of paper inside thx
Thx a lot

No Soup For Yaaaaou! It was a quick find. after thinking it through and being shown a photo I turned around to be greeted with the suspect looking cache! TFTC!
After grabbing afew clues for another cache, my partner in crime liked the sound of this name. Off we set to find gz not finding what we thought we’d find. Thanks for the find loved the hint but was still slow in finding it.
Found on a post Christmas day walk after all that extra eating. Nice walk from my grandparents house to a park I've cached in 3 years prior. TFTC
Found with Listmaker today. After we had a DNF some time back, today it was an easy enough find.
Found in the company of Alansee on a very hot day. The gpsr tried to trick us but Alansee soon had the cache in hand. Glad to get this one off my list.
Thanks for the cache, BaLuke!!
Thanks for the cache, BaLuke!!
after giving up on the first two locations, we finally achieved success with the last one. HOO-RAH!

Found. All good. Log easy to get out with some clever rubber banding by previous cacher
Found by Mary & David at 1805. Not sure about the name, but we had no trouble finding what we needed. Log is in sad condition though - dry, but very tattered and torn. Don't know this area at all but we are a bit early for dinner nearby with friends, so we're filling in time with our favourite activity. Our thanks to baluke.
This geocache probably needs a new container but definitely a new logbook. It is ripped and pretty hard to get out of the container.
Found with FUF009 on a day out caching. I had picked a few caches around the area. Normally we end up miles away but today we had a few other things planned so stayed closer to home.
We found the cache on the ground so not hidden at all. There appears to be some ground maintenance going on here. Put the cache near a tree and under some cover. May need attention soon. Tftc

Find # 4467
A weekend the big smoke with good friend sharkiefan.
she had selected a number of caches closer to her place, normally we venture quite some way away so it was quite novel to be so close yet seem so far, and to make a few "Urban" finds
Found this one sitting out in the open in plain sight, not knowing where it was ment to be, we put it behind the closest Tree under some bark.

Beautiful sunny today. Afternoon out with Whitepaws9. Some caches we rode our bikes, most of them by car. The sky now dark and cold (brr), we need torches to search this cache. Due to dark we didn't noticed the reference until we logged in, haha good one! Thanks to %OwnerName for the cache.
Well this was our second visit after it had been muggled the first time. I'm not sure we would have found it the first time though because we had totally missed the "No Soup For You" reference. Today was a win
TFTC and having a hide near a public toilet too It's tough work being out Caching and not knowing where public toilets are. Lol

Found it actually on ground near presumed hiding spot. Signed the log
First of 2 found in this park - replaced where we assumed it should have been for the usual quick drive by pick up. May need checking we hid it properly. TFTC !

On my day off and clearing out a few jobs to do on the way called in on this one. Nice easy find between workman around. Thanks for the cache
Looked around where the clue was but was unable to find any container. Hopefully it hasn't gone MIA
Two of us looked for this one for some time this morning to no avail. Read all the hints, clues we could find, which narrowed the search, but still no luck.
We found this today after a short search. I'm not sure it was where it was supposed to be. Found this cool looking flower nearby.
realised the clue is linked to the sign, had a good look,but we couldn't find anything im afraid. couldn't really see anywhere something could be hidden. Most frustrating
An epic fail here. I searched everywhere a good cacher would hope to find a smile but no joy. A sad face indeed and feeling very embarrassed that I am unable to find a 1.5 just after the CO has checked it. Woe is me
At first I thought the builders close by might be a problem, but all was good,
Soon had the cache in hand and log signed.
Thanks baluke

Found it thanks to hint.
Long tube thought was rubbish but was it. Easiest find EVER! Don't think it was hidden.

Parked the car here for the start of my walk and cache collecting but couldn't lay my hands on this one as there were too many muggles about. No such problem once I arrived back at the car during dinner time. A quick find but will the hide last?
I have been here before. NOt sure why it wasn't found last time. Rain? Blindness? Who knows...
Initially not having much luck, suddenly it all made sense.
Signed and all well. Thanks Baluke for the fun

After finishing the OCR trads I made my way back and collected some trads. Found after a short search. Thanks to BaLuke for placing this cache.
My GPS had me somewhere else but then I looked closer to the hint and found it, thank you
Headed out to an event with ozhockeychick and on the way home we grabbed a few drive by's. Was a beautiful day for caching TFTC.
So this was the "one more cache" on the way home, park was deserted until someone parked opposite GZ while I had cache in hand , he took his sweet time getting his stuff out of the boot
Use the force Luke, to break the force.. sssss

We found the cache out in the open and not where it was probably meant to be. Here in the company of GJMMelb and quiet1_au. TFTC
Found with Lochb and Quiet1_au. We knew we were in the right spot from the hint. However a check of the obvious places came up with nothing. On looking around I found the cache in the open. I replaced the cache in a more typical and less visible location. Thanks baluke
GJMMelb
GJMMelb
Out for an afternoon of caching with lochb and G' of GJMMelb, we headed for this one first and parked nearby. After a search of the usual spots G' eventually spotted it out in the open (I had noticed it previously but discounted it as being the cache - it looked like dumped rubbish ...). Hidden under some natural camouflage so as to be less obvious to the many muggles about.
Cache was pretty obvious which led me to wonder if it was in the right place, but it seemed consistent with the hint? Found on my morning walk. Thanks baluke.
The Boy was off playing cricket, so we went and found this. It was just lying on the ground, so I retrieved and returned it to somewhere more appropriate given the hint.
I had not been to this park for quite awhile so good to find a "new" cache had been placed. This had to approached with the right perspective but discovered at 15:20. TFTC
At an orienteering activity on Monday evening and came upon this along the way. Couldn't locate it where I thought it should be but eventually espied it on the ground in the open. Signed log and affixed it as best I could where I believed it should be. Apologies for the late log but this is my first find in months as life remains hectic.
BaLuke, apologies for not acknowledging your efforts on my log. When I came across the tube on the ground I returned it to where I thought it should be as practical as possible. Didn't have any replacement tape. Thanks for your effort to Geocaching.
Found with ICW, but the cache was out in the open on the ground. I hid it as best I could without knowing where it should be. Tftc.
It was a nice hide, although I could see some writing through the casing. TFTC BaLuke!!
We must have been hard enough and it took a while but my brother finally found it
