Hi slgurney11,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Day #2 [15-2] of 5 for my trip away. Today’s main goal was to get down to Merimbula safely. So in other words, not many finds today. The caches I found today were mostly quick and easy finds with two DNF’s. However, before leaving Cooma, I discovered there was a newly-ish published cache with a chance of a FTF. So, with the other caches I was wanting to find before leaving Cooma I added it to the list. I also found a few labs. Once on the road, I focused on caches which were quick park and grab along the way. When I arrived in Merimbula, I headed straight for the beach. It so nice to see it again. After the beach and lunch, I headed off to find some nearby caches including a couple more labs before checking into the motel. TB visit on all found caches. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found today for allowing them to bring me and the caching community enjoyment. Big Grin TFTC’s Big Grin

My second of two DNF's for today. I searched for a good 15 minutes and came up with nothing. So leaving from this on with a Sad. Looking at the past logs, I think it needs a CO checkup ASAP.

Had a good search and looked through images for location. Spotted a pic with hide and not there. Searched around in case it had been moved but no luck.

Detoured off the boardwalk for this one, however even with some strong hints in the gallery we left without a smiley.

**This Cache:**

Keen to do the Earthcache, this traditional nearby was a bonus! Big Grin
We were surprised by the abandoned kayak nearby, it seems to have been there a long time judging by the growth around it, but it seemed to be in fairly good shape.... hmmm!

Thanks slgurney11, managed to make the find without issues!

**Day 1:**

The first day of a 3 day weekend travelling from Canberra - Bega Valley Shire to attempt the "VB" cache series & many other fantastic hides!

Myself and sebass19 left Canberra bright and early, and made our way leisurely down to the coast! Lots of great caches both on the way & at the destination before we called it a night to prepare for the big day of VB caches to come!

Heading down the coast towards Eden, we thought we wouldstop to check out Merimbula as neither of us had been there before. We had heard the board walk was a great place to visit, so we parked next to the bridge.

We were enjoying the board walk and thought we would detour to grab this cache too. It was quickly found in the second obvious place with good coordinates. Signed at 3.30 pm.

Thanks for the cache SL Gurney 11

Find #4791

Lockdown has bought a totally different approach to caching with the introduction of homework! Much time for homework in fact. Therefore many more puzzles solved, both as a solo and collective effort. Thanks to my fellow geo buddies for assistance when needed.

And in between there are still some traditionals, though not nearly as many of them left these days

Logs all in good condition unless otherwise noted.

Thanks to slgurney11 for putting out and maintaining all of these caches for our enjoyment!

So grateful to have been able to step away from the madness for a couple of days with GLISS! and K8TYBEE, to help mark K8TYBEE’s birthday. Heading home today but couldn’t resist meandering home via some little cache trails and sweet counties towns. Been watching the news diligently to keep track of all the latest on the covid news. So far things have continued to remain clear down here. Fingers crossed that continues! Thanks for the cache.
