Thanks for finding the cache. Unfortunately this cache will be deactivated in a few hours.
I no longer geocache due to laziness of other geocachers out there and have pulled the plug on caching.

I no longer geocache due to lazy geocachers around not looking after caches, returning them to different locations and don't get me started on trackables.
It's a shame. One particular cache I owned repeatedly never had it's lid put back on correctly , was never placed back in its spot, one cacher even drove into the park and threw it from their window back near the bush where it was located.
All my caches will be archived once their log books are filled.

A dismal day to be out and about caching, but the things you do for a few souvenirs for the Planetry Pursuit. Doing it the hard way by chasing mainly traditionals, but location predicts the caches we have available.
A day spent between Traralgon and Moe with a couple of finds in Morwell included. The rain kept us on our toes as we moved from cache to cache.
Thanks to the respective CO's for the placements on the caches we found today.

After the final space has been filled in the log book, this cache will be disabled for good.
I no longer Geocache, mainly due to the fact there are quite a few lazy cachers out there that I've come across when searching for caches.

Returned today on way back from maryvale mill open day. Had a DNF last time as the police were doing their RBT right there and our excuse was that intimidated us! Today was much different. Hardly a car in sight and a quick easy find. Log needs replacing as only one gap left.
Thanks for the cache and even though we are about to exit, kind welcoming!

Thanks for this cache.. my grandson, Mr Techwizz, and I had a bike ride to find this one. He was thrilled to get it by himself.
Ignore the last 2 DNFs. User didn't actually search for them.
Will be disabling this cache for good in coming weeks as I have given up Geocaching due to a number of reasons (mainly lazy Geocachers out there... and there's a LOT of them)

I managed to sneak this one in on the way home from work today. Thanks to the friend who gave me the tip that made this a relatively quick find!
I never knew there was a picnic area down here! This would have been a nice place to go in Morwell's heyday, but even now it's nice and peaceful. TFTC!

Continuing on our adventure after attending the Alexandra Mega Event, we found ourselves spending a few days on Phillip Island but with severe weather being forecast, we decided to hightail it out of Victoria hoping to keep ahead of the worst of the rain. Obviously, we needed to ensure we had sufficient rest stops along the way to stretch the legs, and what better excuse than to stop and have a look for a cache.
We found the cache easily enough and with the log book signed, we continued on our way.
Thank you _kevsta for having placed the cache and maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

Found on the way home from attending the 2017 Alexandra MEGA with gwd.aussie. I had hardly gotten out of the car before gwd.aussie had the cache in hand.
Thanks _kevsta
Thanks _kevsta
Needed a break on the way back from the mega event.

Had a fair idea where and what, and we were right! A nice easy one on our way in to Morwell this evening. SL TFTC
We dropped into the Bowling Club for a quick Senior's lunch on our way through Morwell and then got back on track as we searched for a few unfound local caches.
We had seen this one on the map but just hadn't got round to looking for it, but today we were on track.
Pulled up nearby, and wondered why there were single cars with solo people parked at the various picnic tables but then settled down to search for the cache.
GZ was pretty easy to single out and then a quick search revealed the crafty little fellow.
Log signed and returned and we were back on our way to the next one.

We were in town for the archery nationals this weekend and finishing up for the very successful first day, we were on our way back into town, and as this was on the road out from the range, we decided to stop off for a look.
Toptox and dad got out started to speculate and "call" where the cache would be....well it turned out dad was right and the SuperCoach found it in a spot he didn't call....
A quick sign and we were on our way again

Nice easy one... only coz I was prepared to put my hand in places they don't belong... TFTC
Pulled up and police were at GZ breathe testing. An awkward search to no avail. Alteast one cop knew we were just Caching. Well be back!
Cache was found on the ground. It is now back in it's hiding spot. I also replaced the log which was full and damaged.
On the third time looking for this cache debbatron was the one to find this little guy. He had stumped me for a while. The log is full and needs to be replaced. Thanks for the hide, glad to finally tick this one off.
Good find by debatron well tracked down after this one has had me stumped for awhile with noonab
Couldnt get lög out. Took a pic instead. Cold and rainy. Been meaning to get this for ages as its very close to home.. i had guessed where it was too... lol
You may need tweezers / extraction tool to get the log out of the cache as the log has been damaged.
Currently awaiting the supply truck to arrive with a new log.

We found this cache today at 2:50pm as number 20 of 37 on our Moe to Churchill Trail. A nice easy start to our Morwell part of the trip. Thanks from D & HA B-A.
It's Sunday so that means going to places we would never usually go to. This cache fits into that category. Thanks. Silkyie
Very quick find TFTC there used to be a different cache in this park a couple of years back
A DNF on this one for me today. What a lovely park. I ashamedly never knew about this little nook of Morwell even after many years of passing by. Will come back. tyftc
Oh no.......wasn't gonna let this little blighter beat me . Just found out the local footy wasn't finished yet and fellas not ready for pickup so I decided to go back. Woohoo! Doing the 'I got it. I got it' Geo-dance. Nice hide and great spot. Happy now. Tyftc
Got a few weird looks from people driving past while im trying to not act sus! Haha! Tftc!
A nice easy find almost a drive by - caching with misschief18 and Bentley TB today

Found while keeping an eye out for the flying drones nearby. Thanks for the hunt.
YaY - found it this afternoon - my first cache for the 2016 International Geocaching Day. Thanks kevsta for setting this one up. Just needed to dodge the drone being flown nearby as I uncovered the cache's hidey hole and signed the log.
I'd just completed my 'flying yoga' for the evening at a nearby gym and decided that I would head the opposite direction to home just to pick this cache up. Apart from a mobile home van nestled unmet the trees nearby there was not another soul about on this lonesome night so I freely searched the area by the streetlights. Soon figured out that this was not going to work for me as the black lumps at gz could've just as easily have been spiders as a cache. Out came the torch and just as I was deciding to leave it till daylight I spotted it. Still wasn't all that keen risking a spider encounter to retrieve it but hell, I wasn't going to not sign that log! Got it without injury. Thanks for the cache! !!
Just checked in on this one as it was found on the ground.
The original hiding spot was damaged from a finder and it had dropped to the ground. So all is good now.

Aargh! So close to my work that I could have/would have run out the moment the notification popped up. But I was stuck working at home due to a tradie. Oh well, a quick find on my way in this morning.
A new one popped up on my phone and as I was in Morwell I thought I would give it a try after the essential shopping was done. Maybe I would get a FTF. Finished the shopping and off I went. There were a few cars nearby however I was confident they were not chasing a cache. How wrong could I be as when I approached GZ I could see a short pair of legs behind an acacia. Who could it be? Oh no it was a definite short pair of legs and she had grabbed the FTF! Oh well a 2ndTF by one minute is a bit like a silver medal. Thanks kevsta for your little cache.
