TFTC OZ-LV! Very nice cache, good camo, very on point to the name! Cache was exposed, so we just flipped it, if you know what I mean . Also found 20c, what a find .
Nice quick find on the way back to Geelong. Had my hand on the Camo the whole time without realising while looking around GZ.Thanks for placing for us to find
Out and about with My good caching mate Omegaman1971, there are always plenty of laughs while we are turning caches into smiles.This is one of the caches found today. I liked this hide.Thanks OZ-LV for the cache.
Out on Australia day, caching between two events at either end of the day. Found it very quickly - just how I like it!My thanks for the cache, OZ-LV.
Omegaman1971Support Your Local Villain Live - Laugh - Lurk First To Find: 150Sidetracked Cache Finds: 118Over this side of town with Rebel Acts to attend an event and hopefully, put some smiles on the map.Was great to finally find some solved puzzles and catch up with old friends at the event.This is one of the caches we successfully found today, Cheers for the cache
The grass was too tall and coordinated led to nothing in the spot, searched a nearby pile of rocks but too engulfed in long grass so not ideal to continue with children
Visiting Melbourne from Port Macquarie.Today we headed from the north-west to the south-east, via Werribee, grabbing caches along the way. Overall, quite the wet, eventful and action packed day.Thanks for the cache
18:35A road trip through the western fringes of Melbourne because I have plans for a longer journey to a milestone tomorrow...Neat hide. I was sucked in for a tick before I realised I was holding the cache.Thanks, OZ-LV.#7989
I decided to head to the westside of Melbourne today to try and target a few caches that would help my progress in qualifying for a few challenge caches. This one was quickly added to the list as it had the **Ticks Nearby** attribute.This attribute seems to be a bit rarer in Victoria and so I try to go out of my way to find them when I can, as I have been every so slowly working on trying to qualify for [GeocachingSA's](https://www.geocaching.com/p/?guid=868a7f68-8205-4868-80ed-3cf819dbed54&wid=d40b8088-3552-476d-aa22-c8d677d480c7&ds=2) [SFE Challenge - All Creatures Great and Small (GC8CQD3)](https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC8CQD3). So after work I hopped into the geomobile and made my way over to GZ. I ended up parking the geomobile on Racecourse Road and then played a game of frogger to cross the main road over to GZ. My phone instantly homed in on the correct beacon. I had even picked up and moved it to check around beacon, but completely missed the cache. It wasn't until I had circled around and checked a few other beacons, that I actually spotted the cache out of the corner of my eye.*Wow... talk about a case of cache blindness!*A neat unique beacon. I am not sure I have ever actually seen this type of camo before and lucky for me I spotted it not to long after I started my search, so the cache was found relatively quickly. Which was good, as the rain was starting to pick up. I was able to just sign the log and get the logbook back in the cache just before the heavy rain started to come. I then played another game of frogger and headed back across the road retreating to the safety of my nice dry vehicle.A big thanks goes to [OZ-LV](https://www.geocaching.com/p/?guid=09a14705-4eda-476c-a0d6-ec2c3c146c14&wid=505803a3-d6b6-4676-b4ba-cb7805be4bc1&ds=2) for the fun today. TFTC.**Cache Maintenance Status**One of the latches on the cache container is broken and missing, so the cache container does not fully seal and would allow access for moisture and maybe some small bugs. The attachment mechanism to it's beacon however still seemed strong and that gave it protection from the rain today. The contents were mostly still dry. Part of the logbook was slightly damp. One side of the logbook is now completely full, but the other side is just started so there is still plenty of room for future cache finders to sign.
Going very gingerly here... I've already had a snake scare today.Thanks heaps for the cache!
Sometimes cache excitement leads to cache blindness as we were sticking hands in holes we shouldn’t have, I picked an item up to look in a hole, replaced it, then picked it up again and the cache almost bit me! Thanks OZ-LV for placing this cache and contributing to this great game. Happy trails, Deanside
Love this one. Deanside was so close twice, but then, there it was! Gets a fav from me.
Headed to Werribee for the day of caching to find this cache first. The log sheet was missing so we have replaced with a write in the rain homemade sheet.
Thanks OZ-LV for the placement.

Easy find but me and my friend made it look hard from our stupidity @youngmoneymint
There was no pen so I was unable to put my name down will go back soon with my own pen
Just read log, bit of geocache is missing.
I’m heading out of town and will attend to it on my return after Easter.

Have been meaning to swing past here on my way home from the office for some time now as this fills one of the last few holes in my hidden date calendar. Today saw me venturing off the freeway into Hoppers Crossing for other reasons anyway so why not kill two birds with one stone.
Geosenses weren’t on point today, put my hands on the cache twice before the lightbulb moment kicked in and I realised what I was looking for was in front of me the entire time. TFTC.

This cache reminded me of my first car. GZ was surrounded by a moat of water, but I would not be denied. Some less than skilful jumping resulted in wet feet. Not to worry, at least I found the cache. Love the camo here.
Found it, definitely a spot to look out for snakes as the weather warms up. Quite a few bugs and log a little damp but still usable. Good fun. TFTC
It was fun to find, although I don't recommend doing this at night like I did. Thanks creators!
This took me way longer than it should and the clue meant nothing to me!!. Very happy to have this one ticked off the list. Thank you
Hahaha found it. Verry clever. Here i was clearing overgrown vegitation for no reason
A good find. The Hint became more apparent once i found the cache.
I discovered a Manor lakes kebab 10% discount card , i went inn and ordered lunch and tried to use the card, they did not honour the discount despite no expiry date issued. What a sad sack of Turd. But thanks to whoever placed the card.
