Sorry, It's gone. I've replaced this cache three times and moved it once within the lane way. I won't be replacing it again.

Found a set of old keys lodged in a tree, but sadly, no geocache.

Found the log book. No container. Put log book in a plastic bag, placed some rocks on it and hid it under a bush.

No cache container. Just log book.
 
This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

It seems COVID safe enough to enable the cache. Be careful. I don't want to disable this one again.
 
12-Jul-20
This cache has been temporarily disabled to reduce the chances of spreading the COVID-19 virus. It will be back in business when health authorities say it is safe to go bush walking etc. Stay safe. Wash your hands. Maintain social distancing.

26-Mar-20
This geocache is currently disabled because I support the government's non-essential activities restrictions that have been introduced because of the COVID-19 virus crisis. I encourage you all to suspend your geocaching activities ASAP. We must all work together to stop the virus spreading. The cache will be enabled in the future.

Great fun with the fam
 
10-Feb-20
All OK with the cache today but NO TB IN CACHE
 
09-Feb-20
Sunday caching with the family. Extra eyes meant we had the cache in hand quite quickly.
We signed the log and picked up the TB which was inside.

The only issue was of course muggles. Had to wait a few minutes for somebody sitting in a car to move along.

08-Dec-19
It is in a career that has gold and a lot better to be able too to be able too and to the extent it would have to do it with him at berwick and hadn't given family anything apparently to be a good day at the moment I think he would have to be a good day at work but eye catching up and sell something for him

29-Jun-19
It’s a very wet day and we’re heading to Ballarat for a CITO but took time to detour and get a few larger caches. We lucked out with a break in the rain to get out of car and find the cache. Close to cache I had to use geo sense as the finding device led me to the wrong side of the track. It’s unusual to see Correa reflexa as a mass planting here. It smells wonderful when you brush against it. Thanks for the larger cache in suburbia.
 
02-Jun-19
Pippy found this one. Second for today as an outing while at grandma and granddads. TFTC.

Found with The Empire Big Grin

**Boxing Day** - We made our way towards the Intervening Days Event.
Stopped off to grab some caches around 'the badlands' Wink

Thanks for the cache Benjamin Screamer. Appreciate your efforts. Big Grin

Found by The Empire and Snap Happy
It's Boxing Day and we'd rather be out caching than battling the hoards at the shops. We've made the trip to Melton for the return of the 'Intervening Days' event. I think I attended 3 or 4 of these events in the past and there have been plenty of new caches recently published to make it a nice day out. Snap was able to make the find after some reading of previous logs. Thanks for the cache Benjamin Screamer.

This has been by far the most urban cache we found all day. Still, it was possible to park and to search away from the eyes of the Scottish clan muggles.
Swapped TBs, signed log, and off we went.

Hi there Benjamin Screamer.

We had some appointments in Melton today, and when they were finished we spent some time caching around the area, using a "next closest" methodology before heading off to Bacchus Marsh to catch up with family.

All up we found 10 caches & DNF'd 0 in this cache run. Thanks for placing the caches. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander around Australia.

**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 gold coin.
**Dropped Trackable:** "Travelling Koala".

Regards

Ian & Penny.

Find number 7070 at 2:56:12 pm
On the way home from working up at Toolern Vale and decided Melton looks like a good spot to top up my daily caching tally.
Nice secluded spot for a cache, quick find once I worked out the correct bush, cache in good condition.
**Thanks for placing this cache Benjamin Screamer**

Was out with my hubby and our 4 year old son today when we decided to go “treasure hunting” my son thought this was a hoot and got right into it. We pulled up as close as we could and H and I walked to where we thought it was. After a couple of minutes I heard “Mum! I see something! Yay, I found it all by myself”. Signed by both myself and the 4yo (Spider_Harry). This was Harry’s 4th and last cache for the day, safe to say he now loves caching. TFTC.

Cache was found easily in its new hiding spot. I wonder what the area will look like in years to come?

Found!

Coordinates changed from:
S 37° 39.808 E 144° 35.752

Coordinates changed to:
S 37° 39.808 E 144° 35.758

Distance from original: 28.9 feet or 8.8 meters.

Coordinates changed after original cache was stolen. The new coordinates should be harder for passers-by to see.
 
03-Nov-18
After the original cache was stolen I've created a new cache and placed it in a new location which should be harder for passers-by to see. The new location is near the fence-line on your left if you're starting your walk along the path from the green end. Happy Geocaching!
 
30-Oct-18
Maintenance check today. It's gone. I'll create a new cache and hide it in a different location. Give me a few weeks.

A quick visit to Melton for some cache maintenance and a cuddle with Dutch Frangipani's new son. Found the well hidden walkway. The GPS was all over the place with the trees but eventually found the cache. Can't imagine anywhere to hide this on the north side. LOL. Thanks for the cache Benjamin Screamer

A friday night and visiting freinds in Kurunjang for the evening, and noticed there was a cache just around the corner, so quickly ducked out side for a few minutes and went and grabbed the cache

thanks to Benjamin screamer for this cache

Suscoe made this find early afternoon.
A quick grab for us.
We were amazed with the circle work done on the roads nearby.
Wondered if it is the Melton version of crop circles.
Thanks for this hide.

Took a couple minutes to find this one but goods were certainly in hand.
Thank you for this geocache

This is one of the finds we made, while making our way around our Melton centred "Pocket Query". The caches placed by this CO ticked all the "Trad" boxes for us: Intriguing cache notes, a variety of cleverly camouflaged and clearly labelled containers.
Initially we thought Christina may have been someone who was done with being a vegan, but no the story in the cache soon dispelled that theory!

Thanks Benjamin Screamer for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.
