Another of my caches gone missing.

Thanks for the cache Lizard1983,

**# 26028** Found on a fine sunny day before we take off on our 2019 Taiwan adventure.
Many muggles around today and mostly good quick finds.
The original log is still there, safely hiding.
Log sheet was very wet. I placed a new dry bag to keep the log dry.
Thanks for the cache Lizard1983,

#16553. Just grabbing a few caches around the area whilst Rob's car is having some treatment at ARB this morning. Didn't realise this one was disabled. Found a log book held together with a peg. Certainly needs maintenance.

Thanks Lizard1983

I needed to take the geocar to ARB for some work, so while Bettyboo3747 and I were waiting, we did a few caches.
This was our first cache.
As mentioned before there is no container here just a logbook. Needs a little TLC I think.
Thanks, Robmc.

Have to check this one

Our second find. Thanks so much

Found it

Cache has been disturbed, not in a container anymore jist the note pad.

Found the notepad and a few little trinkets but the container is missing.

Found it but with no container only booklet and a few little things with it.

All in tact I’m sure Oscar probably used this bush often, yuk ...

Came along this morning to have a go at this one with ilook4geo. Looked where the co-ords said the container should be, but had to go further out to make the find. Signed both names on the log, replaced all where it had been found and then wandered along to visit the car show being held at the oval. Many thanks go to Lizard1983 for placing this cache. Being from interstate, we actually used the co-ords for this cache to get us to the car show. Geocaching is really handy.

Came here with goingplaces2 and parked quite close and was happy to find the container. Signed log and replaced. Then went to the car show on the oval for a while. TFTC.

Quick drive-by find in between tasks today to keep our find streak ticking over at 302 days. Not what I was initially expecting to find, had to spread the search area out a bit as my device had me in the middle of the path today. TFTC.

FOUND IT! My first find

Good spot!

Easy

Another quick drive by in this area

Check cache. Is there ready to be found.

Had a look under between and near the rocks but had no luck in finding it!

Did not manage to find this one. Did look around the rocks.

Good cover to collect this one.

Had a look at a lot of the rocks and did not find

A nice easy find for the first one of the day.

??

coordinates a little out but found eventually. Thank you

A few metres out for me..but eventually foundtftc

After a play at the playground and a bit of parkour decided it was time to grab this cache. After a search on the wrong side finally managed to find this one

Found on my way home from work. Quick park and grab. GPS is a little off and mine did a song and dance again. But located easy enough TNLN Thanks for the cache
Will do the other Oscar series soon

????

Easy find. Notebook was damp. Made a swap.

gps a bit off but found it in until 5mins. thanks

After 30 mins of searching we finally decidwd to go out on a limb and look where we didnt think it would be and it was right in front of us!!

Off to an early start here.

Well 3:48am to be precise [:0]

On my way to the airport and keen to find 2 states in 1 day.

This took way longer than needed though.

Co-ord's seem to be out bye a few metres that I can understand confusion with a few DNF's.

Well I'm done time to move onto Brisvegas.

TFTC

The hint was kinda useful,

Good spot, good hint

Was no where in sight

Found it!! Log book is a little damp though

Yeeeeee boi

But more difficult then anticipated, but still good fun

Our first find!!! Good place

Newbie here! And this is my first find *insert happy dance*

The weather was quite scary today but I persisted. Found in good condition and made sure I covered it up fully. Thanks Lizard1983

A nice quick find while wandering around hoppers. Tftc

Checked cache. Was out on the open. Placed back where it should be.

Hi there Lizard1983.

We found your cache **"Oscar's Walkies #4"** at 12:47:00 PM today. (This makes our grand total 19001).

Today we did a quick cache raid around Hoppers Crossing. Our find count was 5 caches, with 0 DNF's today.

Thanks for placing the cache here. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found this cache around 7m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The cache looks like it has been muggled. It was soaked, so we spent some time drying it out, it still needs some "Owner TLC" though.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Yay found it

First fine , very good little spot. Took only 5-10 Mins

A combination of needing a few finds with the aim of making our 3000th find next weekend at our Melba Gully Glow worms event and needing to pick up a daughters friend around the corner. All this meant we were in the area that we don't normally cache. Miss 14's friend has never cached before so it was a new experience for her.
Miss12 was onto this one in a flash so no one else even got to start looking.

Thank you Lizard1983 for the smiley

TFTC! Was a fun find, the container was filled with tons of earwigs so little fingers beware.

Came back to find at night as there were a lot of people near by. TFTC!

TFTC, took a while to find

Thanks Lizard1983. Oscar walk is being followed by our Ralph. Kids are very appreciative.

tftc fast find

With my car in for a service nearby it was time to wander around the area aimlessly. Aimlessly geocaching, of course.
I gave the playground a miss as it was already occupied, but I was happy to play amongst the shade of the trees finding the cache. At least this GZ 'playground' I had all to myself .
Thanks, Lizard1983.

Thought this would be an easy find but no luck! Spent quite a while searching amongst the rocks, bushes and trees but no result. Hopefully it’s not missing! Tftc

;(

Found it

13:36
A variety of caches, made up the dozen smiley tokens to add to our basket, after a somewhat frustrating day spent around Manor Lakes, Tarneit, Werribee and Hoppers Crossing.
A neat little hide just after lunch - Oscar's Walkies #4 a little quirky! Our 4th find of the day, making our find rate 40%

Satellites today had our GZ 6m NW of where we found the cache.

Thanks Lizard1983 for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.

Good hiding!

Thanks for the hunt, it was a nice challenge!

Between the donut shop and a virtual we stopped for a sneaky extra cache. TFTC.

TFTC fun find. Good for a first one! Yay.

Thank you for the cache, out for my first time doing Geocaching and this was the first one I found! tftc

As I'm now 3 months behind in my logging I am desperately trying to catch up and am mass logging to do so.

In the Melbourne CBD for almost 2 weeks for training for work and naturally I grabbed some caches
Some were lunch time walks and some were night time drives.
It took me quite a while to get used to the behaviour of the GPSr in this city
Took me even longer to get used to those 'hook turns' [?]

Tonight was Wyndham Lights night! [^]
kmace and I had planned to do the old virtual tonight [^] and Cybergran V begged to be included
After a day's training I had to dodge the traffic to find kmace and Cybergran V because apparently there is more than 1 Maccas near Southern Cross Station
Peak hour traffic in Adelaide is nothing compared to here
Finally found the pair and as they climbed into the Corolla, I realised they had evilly forced me to pick them up only 2m from a cache right outside my driver's door
I looked for 6 caches and had 2 DNF's (ok I really did only take kmace to Eadle Rock because she had not been there before ) and the other DNF was missing and is now archived . Thankfully the main goal for the night was found despite a very late start after tea at a shopping centre (mmm, San Churros [:X] ) and so were 3 other caches
It was about 1.30am when I dropped kmace and Cybergran V at a back packers in the CBD and crawled my way back to my hotel room [)]
Thus ended a great night [^]

Found this while out with locus cache and Cybergran V doing the Wyndham Lights cache. I eventually found this cache after going out from the coordinates. Signed log and continued on.

Thanks for the cache.

On a mission to view the Wyndham Lights, but it isn't dark enough yet, and there's unfound cachey things nearby. Can we pretend they're not there and just drive past? Definitely not with locus cache behind the wheel. But this time she didn't come up with the goods, it was time for kmace to shine, and shine she did.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our entertainment.

Found with help from previous posts as Gps way out Nice park Tftc . Greetings from Adelaide

This is a nice large park, it looks like a good location for a walk. After checking one spot, I expanded my search area and spotted the hide soon after.
Thanks to Lizard1983 for placing this cache.

Today was mainly to do some kayak caches with Alansee and Maccamob. Second cache for the day, and another quick find.



My thanks to Lizard1983 for the cache.

Another find for Joshikins and I. We have loved this series and have loved seeing these parks. TNLN TFTC!

Awesome find. Very well hidden. Found with fern182. Love you oscar, rest in peace buddy

I was in the area and thought I'd stop off and have a look for this one. Good to find the cache with the hint.


Thanks Lizard1983

Took us a little while to find but finally did. Tftc

Tftc

I had to wait for a muggle dog walker and try not to look to out of place looking at my phone. Once they were out of sight i was able to continue and make the find.
Log signed and replaced as found.

Thanks for the cache Lizard1983

Quick find today as I headed through here picking a friend up on our way to Tassie for a girls weekend away. Many thanks for the cache!

Nice find

Thanx

2# geo found traded an item thanks for the adventure

Done

Was fun to find

Our 200 find thanks for the cache! In a great location and number 17 for the day. It was a nice memorial. Very close to our hearts after having to part with our furbabies today also so an honor to have this as number 200. No trackable that we saw unless it was the little man.

Nice find
