Well its been a long long time between caches. Im taking all the precautions while being out. I have my mask and hand sanitiser. Decided to have a wee outing in the damp weather. Less people. I need a break from work and study.

This one I have attempted tp stop for a few times but the road has always been too busy and some car has been up my butt so I couldn't even slow down. Ive lived in the area for over a year so have a better feel for the area. Public holiday is a perfect day to go caching. Found easily although I think I almost stepped on a bird nesting nearby. Cache was wet inside but I could still make my mark. Tftc

This was a lovely day to be out doing a bit of caching with ilook4geo. We came along here and had no trouble in finding this one. All was in good order and the log was signed with both names and was put back into place before we headed off. Thanks go to PatandLynda for placing and maintaining this cache.

Found on my detour home from the Werribee Zoo. After searching around where my GPS pointed, I checked the previous logs and noted that some had said it was a little off. I widened my search and found it easily about 12 metres west of where I was initially searching.



My thanks to PatandLynda for the cache.

A huge thanks to you, PatandLynda, for creating, placing and maintaining this cache. I have enjoyed finding it and visiting this spot, thanks to your efforts.

Coords were a bit off. I went to the western tree from coords to find it. Shoes are now wet thanks to the dew on the leaves !

Around the area so I thought I would detour and grab this cache.
Found it a bit further north than where my GPSr was suggesting, but luckily it was a reasonable sized cache.
Grabbed the TB Bear to see it on its way.
Thanks, Robmc.

No luck today
 
06-Mar-19
I needed a cache today as am taking part in a 30 day photo challenge and today's subject was obsessions!! So between popping out to collect lemons and bananas I grabbed this one which is near to my friends house where I am staying. Being an English girl I automatically thought the grass would be alive woth snakes and approached with a stick. Just have looked so funny. Took a while to find but was glad to persevere. Added a trade mark gummy bear and took a TB. Also left a TB. Tftc
 
25-Feb-19
Grass was pretty overgrown, only had a quick look. Will try again some other day.
 
29-Dec-18
This is my closest unfound cache to home.

I needed to grab a smiley as I have not been out and about in December yet.

Jumped on the bike and headed to GZ.

At first I thought it may have been muggled.

I looked round and round high and low.

Then when I widened the search a little further I spotted the container.

Signed the log and dropped off a TB before moving on.

TFTC Smile

Thanks Azia81 for rescuing our muggled cache. Moved it back to it's coordinates. Didn't replace swappables this time. Thanks to Azia81 cache is in good condition.
 
27-Oct-18
Finally had a chance to grab this cache. Found the cache on the ground and the logbook and pen strewn across the ground. Have put it back together and I sat it in the tree. Hopefully this is the right spot.

Thanks for the cache Pat and Lynda Smile
 
26-Oct-18
TFTC! On a school walk for PE, saw this one was nearby and begged my teacher to let me and a group of friends look for it. He reluctantly gave us a minute to do it and we frantically ran around before finding it at the 30 second mark, signed it and then made it back across the road with time to spare.
 
22-Oct-18
Quick easy detour off the fwy for a quick easy find. Exactly what I needed to keep my find streak intact after being stuck in the office for 11 hours, thanks for the placement.
 
20-Oct-18
Found! Great hiding spot. Although I think I may have taken the last item in the Cache so it will need a refill. Came on a rainy day but was fun to find!
 
04-Oct-18
Got it without having to reach too far. CIGC TNLN TFTC

#8551 - 16:00; In Melbourne for a couple of days with Sol de lune on a mainly GCA mission, but stopped off to pick up this cache while we were in the area. Funny watching the muggles slow down and looking at the geomobile. Might have been thinking it was a speedtrap? TFTC PatandLinda Smile
 
25-Sep-18
In Melbourne with LuckyL10n for a bit of Geocaching Australia caching however we weren't going to miss this one as we drove past. As LL says, it was amazing to see how many cars that drove passed slowed down. Suspicious of a speed trap or what!!

Thanks for the cache PatandLynda...as well as the added entertaintment.
 
09-Sep-18
Woohoo!

Rained just as we found it!! Pretty sure we looked like we were up to no good but shh!
 
15-Jul-18
Long grass was deceiving. Left trackable. Thanks!
 
15-Jul-18
Thank you so much. Once I got over the potential of snakes we found it and were very excited.
 
11-Jul-18
A quick detour for a 366 square, a Phoenix and the satisfying feeling of a find. Thanks!

Found on my way home from Werribee this afternoon. Smile
Fortunately the passing traffic was not too heavy and I was able to park nearby.
The cache was found on the ground under the tree. [^]
All is well with the container and it's contents.
I sat in amongst the foliage and made my mark. Cool
Cache replaced above ground level.
I decided to come home to log this find as I wanted to Research It beforehand.
Some interesting articles were found online.
This [link](http://vhd.heritagecouncil.vic.gov.au/places/12272/download-report) takes you to a Victorian Heritage Database Report.

Thank you for placing this cache to highlight a significant establishment in Victorian agriculture.

Hi there PatandLynda.

We found your cache **"Research It"** at 11:18:00 AM today. (This makes our grand total 18997).

We were trying to get a milestone today (three more to go), but the weather and a funeral conspired against us. Our find count for today was 3 caches, with 0 DNF's. SmileBig Grin

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 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.
