Finally managed to avenge this hide! It was missing for a while but since been replaced. Added our name to the new log. Thanks Farmers5 for fixing this for us.
Gone missing few times and a few locals reported suspicious activity .
So will archive this one to free up the area for maybe a sneakier hide .
Many thanks to all the finders .

I thought it might be a similar hide to the previous hide, but no, this one was empty. Not finding a cache there I searched among the bushes and nearby. A DNF!
A cache check noticed the cache had actually vanished .
A new cache is in place .
Happy hunting !

Had a good look for this one. Parks and Gardens worker approached us asking if we’d lost something. Awkward conversation ensued ending with we are Geocaching. He accepted that and moved on. Expect he knows where it is??
After two very long weeks at work and other commitments on the to-do-list, I decided to get away and do some caching. I decided to clean up as much as I could of north Wagga today on the long weekend. Thanks to all CO’s for the fun and for the caches I found today. Sorry to all cache owners if I put 2/9/17 instead of 2/10/17.
I finally found this one. Wow, this one has had me twisting, turning and scraching my head for months now. I recently received a hint from a team I recently met up with and since it was fresh in my mind I decided to find this one on my way to Wagga for the day of caching. When I arrived, it was quiet and I didn't expect anything less being a public holiday. I soon had the cache, in hand, signed and replaced just before the couple of muggles came that were on their way to the train station. Tftc Farmers 5 for showing me a new type of hide.
P.S. With this find, it currently finishes off all hides in Junee.

Found by edmil in the company of Andrew and Debbie - the local hair dresser. Maddie still at work in Melbourne. The area was deserted so figured it was a good time to search. Just started when Debbie came across to us, curiosity had got the better of her as she had seen so many people searching for the cache. After explaining geocaching to her she got into the swing of the search. I came up with the goods after a short search. Log signed and cache replaced. Secret safe with Debbie. TFTC.
I have a day off work. What to do? How about find a cache or two before it starts raining. I decided on the last couple of caches in Junee and then move onto Wagga. Lots of different hides and camos which made the day more enjoyable. Thanks to all cache owners for today’s fun.
My Second of two DNF's today. I was here long enough to claim a DNF. This time there were less muggles then last but I was still very exposed because of the hairdressers that are right by the cache. So after looking for a little while one of the people in the hairdressers came out and asked what I was doing. I let her know that I was geocaching. Then, the next thing she said was that everyone in the hairdressers thought I was catching Pokémon. I gave a little chuckle and told her that I don't play 'Pokémon Go'. She then smiled, said have a good day and moved on and I moved on too as I wanted to make it to Wagga by lunch time. Now onto the last cache before I head to Wagga.

Nice and quiet here today, although i can imagine at the wrong time it could be very busy. luckily we could make the quick search without being disturbed and the cache was quickly located.

How very European - a Town Square in rural NSW! Fortunately the nearby business was closed and muggles were few. After a short search the log was signed at 2.23pm and replaced carefully. #4707 TFTC The Farmers 5 - our aim is to log 50 caches today and this one makes #40 - 10 to go...
Saturday seems so quiet in town with only a few muggles about, it didn't take too long before the cache was located, signed and returned to it's hiding place.
Thanks The Farmers 5 for placing the cache for us to find.

I had my head in the hedges for ages before I eventually spotted the container. Thanks.
A day out caching with ynnbub found this cache after waiting for a family of muggles to leave. Our eldest had her hands on the cache quickly as we had seen one of these before
Suscoe was out and about in the Riverina today in the very good company of Phetlern.
It was a very cold start to the day with sub zero temperatures, but this slowly gave way to a sunny day which felt warmish at times.
We headed north of Wagga today and had a great day out travelling the country roads.
Thanks to The Farmers 5 for this hide, took a bit of looking and then H located it. Had a quick look at the beaut station too while we were here.

Along with Suscoe, we made our way to Junee via the "Friendship Run". The weather was perfect, allowing us to seek out a variety of caches, some of which such as this one, made us feel very exposed to the elements. As always the co'ordinates lead us to places and/or revealed quirky tales, we would never have known about without geocaching.
Thanks The Farmers 5 for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Spent the weekend with BAB - Touring around Junee and the surrounding areas - Beautiful weekend - Shame the Railway Café doesn't open on weekends anymore you would think that would be an ideal time for them to be open. Great hide - TNLN - Log signed - TFTC
Out for a quick roam around Junee with KAT. Nice hide. TNLN. Log signed. TFTC
Awesome hide! Had us stumped for a little while...overthinking it. But eventually found TFTC!
Thank goodness it was reasonably quiet here today as it's hard to not be the centre of attention. The cache took a little bit of finding when you're searching with one eye out for approaching muggles at the same time. Just as we were leaving people started getting dropped off......train must be due. TFTC The Farmers 5
With the weekend free of any work requirements it was time for a two day drive west of Canberra to Junee, Temora and Grenfall. Plenty of caches along the way with a mixture of interesting places and placements.
Thanks.

Lots of Muggles activity so needed to be discreet. Great container.

Wagga day 2, Wilks Park
We had a great morning out caching with Coongoola. It was the TD Friendship trail that we had targeted today. Then continuing onto Junee.
We had a nice tiki tour of the town & country on our caching tour.
A good variety of caches & DT locations visited.

Gave it a very quick go because there were lots of muggles around. I wasn't there long enough to claim a DNF.
Quick find but subterfuge needed due to muggles so wandered off with the cache into nearby building, signed log and replaced it once the coast was clear. Love the history and architecture. TFTC

A good round trip up to Temora and back with a couple of unexpected bonuses.
A not so quick find here while avoiding muggle eyes in a very public location.

Out and about with The Drovers to grab some caches in the Junee and Wagga area today and this was one of them.
Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

A visit from Konie, prompted us to get out and do some caching.
Had a lovely day around Junee, picking up a few local caches.
Thanks for a fun day out - very enjoyable.
Very exposed hide, and we had to wait for a while before searching.
Lots of muggles use this area, but fairly quite this morning.
Cache found after a short search, signed and replaced.
Many thanks for placing this cache, The Farmers 5, for us and others to find.

#6093 - 12:55; Out on a day run with Sol de lune and toy hunters heading south to Gundagai, then west through Junee, on to Grong Grong and home via Ardlethan with a few stops at a number of small country towns along the way. We were now working our way through Junee and found ourselves in the 'town square'. Found a convenient park and the hunt started. Another novel hide. TFTC The Farmers 5
Found on a fantastic day trip out around Junee with Sol de Lune and LuckyL10n! It wasn't too busy here today, so after parking nearby, we walked over to GZ and after a little bit of searching, the cache was found - very interesting container! Nice little area in a beautiful town. TFTC The Farmers 5!
Promised the kids we would go caching before school. What a gorgeous morning! Plenty of Muggles around so extra stealth was required. TSLS. TFTC!
20:30 on a weeknight in Junee was just the time to have a sticky beak for this hide... i was comfortable feeling around at GZ without Muggles to bother or worry me during my brief search. 3 or so mins later the well made cache was in hand [^] Log signed and cache re-hidden. Wed. 19 Oct 2016. TFTC The Farmers 5
Hmmm so we are the first DNF on this one. We spent quite a while looking, feeling fairly conspicuous in this very public place. Running short of time we had to head for home.
Couldn't find this one even after a second look foillowing an explicit hint from the CO.
11987. Found during a meander around the Cootamundra/Junee region today.
With 2/3's of a day up my sleeve I decided to do the first part of a planned trip that was postponed by the bad weather a few weeks ago. Headed off after a few chores at 10.30 and this was the next stop. I missed the Events in Junee when all these new caches were placed due to the kids soccer - but today I managed to visit them all. I parked quite close and wandered over for a quick search. This is one of my all time favourite types of hides - I remember the first time I saw one - I was amazed !! Signed the log, replaced the cache, and headed off to the next one.
Thanks again The Farmers Five !! That's 11 of yours so far today !

5766. Found by baby&Mrs gopher on a visit to Temora and Junee at 1520. It is now a week since the events and as we were here to perform maintenance on our cache we decided to see if we could locate the hides we had missed out on then. Don't you love a Sunday mid afternoon. All is quiet the locals are at home and looking for caches is a breeze. SL Tnx The Farmers 5
I found this cache as a joint part of “Team” Throsbyonchurch and in which name the log book was signed. I now have my own account as I’m old enough to cache myself, so I am claiming a fair share of my earlier finds. As I had no caching name at the time there's no log in the book for me but I’m claiming the find under team ToC. Thank you for the hide.
Found with the whole crew. Skullracing, Sharkiefan, 3In1 and Coruze. We might have parked the convoy in a bus zone for a few minutes and had to act natural in the busy Town Square but the cache was found and the log signed. Thanks for the hide.
This was group cache number two with everyone and a good spot to get out of the wind for a while.
Once again many eyes descended on GZ to search for the cache while Mr 3inone took a bunch of kids for a run along the train platform.
The many eye style of searching paid off as Mr TLW came up with the goods and we all signed our lives away.
Then as all the people were being stacked back in cars, a couple of young lady Cachers happened along and began searching...so Mr TLW being the knight in shining armour that he is, wandered over in helped the maidens in distress and pointed them in the right direction.
Thanks Greg and Karen for another great cache in a great location.
We can remember coming here quite a few years ago to get a now long archived cache.

Found it thank you for the hide. Got wind another cacher was heading off to the Junee caching events, contacted them and scored a lift. We found this cache on the way.
Grabbed this one with Skullracing, Coruze, Geoprincess, The Lost Wanderers and Sharkiefan. Took the geokiddies for a run along the railway station platform while the others made the find. We got back in the cars and onto the next cache.
Very threatening conditions greeted us today as we (myself, CBRChick & mcktcj) contemplated an anticipated trip out to Junee for two events today. A very wet night & local conditions indicated flooding & we wondered if we would even make it. But optimism won the day & we headed out regardless and the rains eased the further we ventured from Canberra. Quite a few other Canberra geocachers were there, including B737 & family, but we met cachers from all over including Dubbo, Moss Vale and some even from Shepparton ! All in all a good day. Thanks Greg & the Famers 5 team for organising this successful day and great venues.
Loved the old buildings and a tricky little one.

Seen this hide a few times around the place, always seems to avoid being found for the first few minutes though until it clicks!
It was already found once I arrived at GZ though, Tanso's daughter was much too quick for everyone else and had her hands on it straight away! I wonder how she knew....

A quick find with my geoparents. Mum knew what it was the moment she saw it as she has two of these hides which she brought back from America. TFTC
I plan was hatched to head to Junee for the day with Geomum and Rapidlywild to attend both of the events being held there.
Between events we went and collected some new caches around the area, teamed up with a few others Tanso and loci612 which resulted in some quick finds.

Cache in good condition.
Travelled to Junee for The Farmers 5 events at the Monte Cristo and the Licorice/Chocolate Factory. Lived in Junee for a few months, returned home for a couple of years and moved to Wagga for 3 years and returned home again. Love it down here. So we were hopeful of bagging a good number of caches this weekend.

Hearing about the 2 events today at the Chocolate Factory and the Monte Cristo Haunted Homestead, plans were put into place with the ladies from FurfacesLL and geomum to attend and do a day of caching around the area picking up the newer caches. We set off at a reasonable hour from Canberra and worked our way towards the first event, did some more caching then headed over to Monte Cristo then off for some more caching. All in all we all had a great day out
Ahhh yes seen these ones before, always a sneaky one

Another quick-ish find on the way home.....after teaming up with StrangeTrousers, mcktcj and CBRCHIC. Looked in the obvious spot and the container was spotted after a parting of the way.
Thanks Farmers 5.....another one were we were glad it was the weekend.
