Effort has gone into this hide so thank you for taking the time and effort. Nice easy find, cache in good condition. Thought Id grab a few caches before the rains hit while walking off brunch.
TwoEms came from a muddy hike and stopped by for some sparkles ice cream. We noticed two horses running freely in the nearby paddock, but they appeared to be happy and playing chasey with each other. They kept circling around the paddock and coming right up to the fence, so we nicknamed one Sparkles and the other one Ice-cream. We were going to photograph these beauties, but a muggle was already along the fence and filming them with a big smile on her face. So we took the muggles distraction as an opportunity to quickly sneak away and find the crafty hide. Thank you for the cache.
Sydney to Melbourne Meander. Day Eight: To Melbourne Airport and home.Weather: Another perfect geocaching day.My first thought here was RoamingHowie, half expecting him to be the CO, and look at that, hes just a short way in front of me. The cache is once again rather exposed as a result of the ongoing disintegration of the host. Ive tried to rearrange the remnants in a more suitable fashion, but I think we have a bad case of termites here. Maybe get in an echidna as cache guardian.Thanks for the hide Barkers08.
Did somebody say ice cream?I had to come in search of this one. Unfortunately there was no ice cream to be found but the cache was. It was sitting a little exposed as its host has rotted and is split apart. I signed the log and replaced as much of the host as I could so that the cache remains out of muggle view.A big thanks goes to Barkers08 for taking the time to add Tabi's - Sparkles Ice Cream to the geocaching map for us all to find and enjoy.----------------------------------------------------------The nominees for the [**2023 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards** ](https://geocachingvictoria.com.au/2023-victorian-cache-of-the-year-awards/) have been announced.

Going back and logging some old drafts, sorry for the late log! Found with day1976Found the log first, then found the container empty on the ground about 5m away. If anyone coming to find has spare log paper please bring a piece
This is one of many geocaches that I have found over the last 12 months, but have not got around to logging. Sorry for the generic log. Just catching up now.
I had some time to kill before an appointment so thought I would check out if there were any caches around. Nice quick find. The log book is a little damp (assuming from all tbt recent downpours)
Great hiding spot , although unfortunately the ice cream must have melted before we arrived.
Nice quick find, saw it from the distance now for the walk back up hill to the car. TFTC
Easy find spotted it from the bottom of the hill. Log a little damp but still in good enough nick
I was out with my mum and with my iPad it had on internet so it didn’t log. Fun to find.

Nice walk on a cold day, just got the logged stamped and the rain hit.
Cheers for the cache

What better way to start our day caching in the hot sun than to start it off with some steep hills... Ha
A nice quick find to get the job done before we burnt to a crisp from the heat..
Unfortunately despite the heat this logbook was a bit damp
Thanks heaps for the cache Barkers08!!

A quick stop here on the way home from the Whittlesea MEGA. I spotted the likely hide as I approached as I have a similar hide constructed but not yet placed. Nicely done. Log was ever so slightly damp, but still no trouble to sign.

Fun find, and a quick log. Had to rearrange stuff to get the lid on securely, log is a bit damp. Tftc!
This geocache is very easy to find if you look closely, thank you for letting us find the geocache. Quick clue it is under something.
Hardest thing about finding this one was crossing the very busy Main Rd after doing the Virgil cache on the other side. Thanks.
That was AMAZING!! How did you get it under the log like that? Good rewards as well. Overall, super!
I'm waiting for my date on date night and have a bit of spare time and what better way to use it than a few evening caches?
Beautiful hide, thanks atsmug.
It took me a few minutes to find cause I was looking at the wrong west then when I found it I couldnt believe my eyes: the last person to log is my geo buddy Mimamecha! Now to put this into perspective: I'm about 100km from home and picked this cache quite randomly! Never happened before, unlikely to happen again, made my day! Tftc

Thus is a really cool hiding spot the hint was great and there was alot of effort however I wish there was a pen
Out for a walk to collect a few local caches in the fresh and cool air.
Found the nice hide. Thanks!
Thanks to Barkers08 for the placement and fun.

Impressed with this very clever hide. Last capture of the day - a great way to end up
Out on my own today to get a bit of sanity. Parked the car some way a way so I could get my steps up and to walk where I have never been. This is a well made camo - nice easy find. Thanks for bringing me here Barkers08
Found it! So nice to spend the day with friends in Eltham. After a delicious dinner last night and sleepover at the B&B and morning of rain, it was good to stretch the legs this afternoon! This cache was our first find on our 7 km walk. Great hiding place! The nearby horse was very excited by our find too!! TFTC SL
Nice camo. Good work.
Pretty straightforward find after reading the description etc.

Found with rydes!! Few slugs on the base thanks for the bulla cream, enjoy hello kitty
After being cooped up for too many months it was nice to be out and about. Todays plan was to walk across to Research from Eltham and grab any caches on the way.
A quick find. TNLN. TFTC.
