### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

Hi there Cache Owner,
It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue with the placement. The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.
**You do need to respond in some way within 14 days - Please don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**
#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-
- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache and repair and/or replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.
- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers, so without your note on the cache page telling them what the situation is, they can't tell what is going on with the cache.
So please just post a note to the page (within 14 days) and, when the listing is next checked, all will be fine for a little bit longer. But be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.
If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date), please ensure you visit this page and post a note every 4 to 6 weeks so as to keep everyone up to speed with what is happening.
- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.
You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.
Honestly, I'd rather you decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.
Thanks for you cooperation,
Bunjil

Maybe need some maintenance to either replace or repair the cache. Spent 15 minutes looking definitely not there.
We have been back to walk to “Stumped”
While we were here, we checked the cache.
Lucky we did.
We found it open and on the ground.
We reassembled it and moved it to the base of the post, out of sight.
Cheers.

On our way home now after an afternoon caching to find some of the 12 Days of Caching series and picking up one or two more caches along the way.
When we pulled up on the main road I noticed a vehicle parked on the side road, right near where the cache was hidden. There was a lovely retired couple there clearing some fallen branches and I explained why I was there and what Geocaching was. And when I found the cache, their eyes lit up much like mine did when i first found out what Geocaching was when i was a mere muggle!
Thx to The team of COs for placing this one, CIGC TFTC

Found as we passed through the area and decided to make a detour to explore an area we have only passed before, TFTC and the fun
Found it in the company of ToolboxTas whilst waiting for my van to be fixed back in Geelong.
Thanks for the cache.

After staying at Bunjil Lookout last night n spending along day, with sharkiefan, in the bush around Steiglitz hunting down Cludo and Star Wars themed caches, the odd other in the area and a quick flying run into Geelong for a Virtual and attending the Geelong Annual Christmas Dinner at Lara.
It was time for me to head home.
The drive did take a little longer than it should have as, my parents, Tyred n Cranky have told me about this little group of caches here, and it was a 20odd k detour from thr direct route home.
Being dark and going on a back track made for a great little solo adventure and well worth the detour.
An interesting way to end out a great n memorable day.

Quick find and had a chat to horses in opposite paddock on my way out. CIGC TNLN TFTC Team Loop!
Firstly, apologies for the lateness in logging.
Despite my tardiness, you can be assured I enjoyed each and every cache found and not found.
Apologies if this is a generic log, my memory is good, but not that good.
On this day I was out with Sorceysal and Tessie the geodog
Thanks again guys, we added more logsheets here

Out and about with Bogonghazy and geodog Tess for a days caching around the Bannockburn and Inverleigh area.
A quick find. The log book is full so we added another piece of paper to keep this cache going. Thanks for showing us around here

Enjoying the sights as we travel around.
Thanks for sharing this spot.

So far, the road was safe to drive. Another quick find, and then the assessment: Out by himself, no recovery gear in the car, the vulture decided to take a southerly detour and approach the next cache from the other side.
We're out hunting for the last hidden creature. This quite dirt road looks like a good place to search! Thanks
The log here is full but we managed to squeeze in a gap.

After spending the Long Weekend down in Anglesea/Torquay area to take Geodog Penny back to the beach, finish off the G2Anglesea trail and grab a few others along the way, we are heading for home.
We left early so that we could grab the nine caches around this circuit. This was the eighth on the list and like most of the others around this trail was another quick find. Log signed, and onto the next one we went. Penny liked this trail as she had lots of running around at each cache find as the road/track wasn't busy.

Found a pen near GZ, then SP found the cache in good hiding spot. Scribbled our names where we could on the logbook. Thanks Lacinta, Rebel Llama and Poppet_93.
As we reached the end of this road, we stopped to try our luck. As abl973 found a pen on the ground, most likely from a previous cacher, I tried a different spot and managed to locate the cache. The log is fairly full, but we found a spot to add our names.
Thanks to Lacinta for placing this cache.

Looking forward to doing this series as it is a country drive on quiet roads! Great to see the 4 horses in the paddock opposite GZ. One of the horses looked exactly like our Shilo with the white patch on its nose. Cache soon found but was only able to write 30 J due to logbook being full and also due to our 2 biros not writing on the logbook paper, unfortunately! New logbook needed please.

Today I headed out on another road trip, this time a bit of a loop around through Geelong and Inverleigh and then up to Ballarat for the Giff Event.
My main targets on this run were Letterbox Hybrid and Large caches.
Even though this one wasn't a target as I was passing by I decided to stop for a look a short time later I was signing the log.

I was out and about with Biggles Bear for our monthly caching adventure, this time to the Brisbane ranges and surrounds. Found quickly. There is no room left in the log, so we had to overwrite previous names.
Thanks to Lacinta, Rebel Llama and Poppet_93 for the cache.

This was a nice spot to stretch the legs and for the littlest bunny to practice jumping in puddles. Glad this GZ wasn't in the boneseed. TFTC
Nice find, roads a little wet but will come back for the 2 we couldn't get to. TFTC
Good to get away from Muggles in town and get down to some serious caching. Not too much trouble here.
Out and about on a chilly afternoon finding some local caches. I though it was about time to collect some of the caches along the loop. Quick find. TFTC.
Our last day in the area before we head back to Tassie. Heading to Meredith to drop off the muggle mum/mum-in-law at a meeting place where my sisters will then return her to her home in Maryborough. Thanks to the clues, we found this one quite quickly.

The first of 2 Bannockburn 'loops'. Each cache was found pretty quickly, there were no other cars on the road today. Happy Easter to all! Thanks to all of the cache owners for making this cool trail.

Had no worries here either. The colour of the hide is changing with the sun too. Using the car today. it was a little tight with some branches quite low. All good though. I got through.

I was enjoying these caches and was grateful for the hint on this one - it might have taken a while otherwise.
Another quick find here. Very glad to,see the last of a rather tricky track as there were many potholes full of water. TFTC Lacinta
It was a nice day to be out scouting around the countryside, my favourite type of geocaching.
Nice easy one with not a soul in sight.
Good to follow your cycling route too.

The stars aligned after the geo wife decided to spend a night with the geo kiddies and granny's hose so it created some free time for caching. Then I received a messaged from DAB if I was interested in the 12 days of Christmas series. LET's GO! So we teamed up once we were both in town and off we went. We drove out of the town for a few caches on the outskirts. A tough old track to navigate. Thankfully I was in a 4WD and not the sedan. Another quick find on this very dusty road. Stamped and returned as found.

Holiday time usually means, friends, food and fun! Today we headed north west from Geelong, where we found a smorgasboard of cleverly designed, well constructed and maintained caches. Thank you to all the CO's for satisfying our addiction today!
Considering the hot and windy weather today we were very happy not to be pedalling!

Found by Mary & David at 1425. Doesn't get much better than this - blue skies, fluffy clouds, the Australian bush, and a cache on a quiet dirt road. Our thanks to Lacinta.
We enjoyed a family Birthday get together in Teesdale today and what better way to finish off the day than to claim a few smilies around the area. Great road for a 4WD to get through.
Thanks Lacinta for placing this cache for us to enjoy.

And on the Seventh day of my geocaching holiday I reached 7000 finds! I thought today would have ben a bit more relaxing, but since I had ran out of power trail caches (only 14 of them today) I had to travel around a fair bit. Inverleigh, Teesdale, Bannockburn, Lake Conneware and the last bit of the G2Q trail to find the last 62 caches.
And the big buld up to my milestone find was a let down as I found out from a recent log that the cache was missing! So I had to make another descision on what cache it would be.
In the end I had time on my bike and lots of airconditioned car driving to make the trip easier.
Thanks for all the caches!

MaggieDot, myself and two geokids out today to attend a geocaching event and do some caches. MaggieDot and the littlest geokid jumped out to look and I was still in car with the other geokid for a bit. So when I got out I went the opposite way to where they were and stumbled upon it. TFTC.
After the Munch in Maude event AutumnTree and I were on a bit of a caching roll... convinced the accompanying GeoKids to continue on and attempt this loop. One was much more enthusiastic than the other!
Hmmmm - dry weather only. It doesn't look too bad and the ground is pretty solid. Not clay. I've got decent clearance on my car. Do we give it a go?
We do! (We did already have a rescue plan just in case!
)
In retrospect I actually have no idea where this one was because AutumnTree found it and brought it to me to use my pen. I was distracted preventing the GeoKids from standing still for too long and getting attacked by bull ants.
