Hi BrownscacheDiversBCD
This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).
I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.
Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.
Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.
Regards

Hi sorry away in the north island walking the TA so will have to leave this disabled until I get back in the new year ..
Hmmm, I seem to be having lousy luck today, this was the latest in a string of DNFs...!
Quick find. Thanks to all cache owners for taking the time to place and maintain your caches. Team Broadbent (signed TB on micros). Find # 2352
Great weekend caching with Hinemoana. Drive by caching in the morning as we waited for the rain to stop. Thanks!
A crazy caching weekend with KiwiGS! We picked this area because on the map it looked like a lot of easy caches, although it was not quite the case. We still found many! Filling in time with a few drive by's waiting for the rain to ease. TFTC!!
Easy find by smaller geocacher who had, fortunately, recovered from an earlier bout of travel sickness
Taking Aussie Pete to the airport. Had to do a few caches on the way to finish of the holiday. Quick park and grab
TFTC, lovely wee town, grabbing a couple caches on our way through, log is a little damp.
The main problem we had with the area nearby is that we got our campervan stuck, as we parked on a gravel area the wheels just sank, it turned out the gravel had washed over the soft dirt and looked as though it was going to be a firm area to park - turned out it was not. A lovely young man from a nearby farm came with his tractor and pulled the campervan out. Not sure what we would have done without him.
Anyway back to geocaching... This was a quick easy find as it was totally exposed, so popped a few rocks on top of it to give it a wee bit of cover
Thank you for placing the cache and thank you for the smiley.

On a 10 Day holiday of the South Island, we are visiting from Australia. Sl thanks for the cache.
Arrived in Geraldine yesterday for a couple of days geocaching before heading on South. Was surprised to find Tufty already encamped on my arrival. This morning we headed off together to find a few of the local caches. As we headed back toward town we stopped to leave our Mark. Thanks Postman Pat.T
I decided to stop off in Geraldine and park my snail shell up here for a few days. My bro showed up a few hours later. So today, while Mrs BaldEd did the shops, BaldEd and I headed out to tackle a few caches starting at the north of the town.
BaldEd spotted the likely hidey hole from the cachemobile.
Cheers for the cache.

Found with nissan 65. Flew in from sydney for a short holiday. Hoping to see as much as i can on the south island and pick up caches along the way . Thanku for the cache.
Weekend trip to Oamaru and Dunedin for the Pink Concert so doing some caching on the way. TFTH.
Was initially planning a trip to Geraldine tomorrow (Sunday) to bike the river trails but forecast rain made me come today (Saturday). Frosty morning but a lovely sunny day. Bit late leaving home but all good. Will see how many I can find!
After completing the river trail a couple parkngrabs were on the table as I headed to find some food before heading for home.
Quickly cornered and sign in the dark of evening on my way out of town. Cheers.

A quick and easy find. Thanks
A wee day trip today to Geraldine and back. A nice day for it, not too hot, nor too cold.
Thanks to the CO's for placing and maintaining these caches. Cheers.

With reshamfiriri... hardly worth risking your life for this one... too simple after all the really good ones...
We parked on the side of the road, and waited for cars to go by. Lull in traffic, and a quick grab. Sign the log. Then blasted traffic I couldn't get the cache back. Then along comes a postie on a bike, looking and coming straight at me. Go away I thought, then he stops and says "I am postman pat and I know what your doing"
Rumbled by the cache owner. Whom admitted he has been waiting to catch someone for a while. We just happened to be the mark.
Thanks for the cache and the impromptu meet and greet in down town Geraldine.
It is always fun to meet fellow cachers.

Just casually checking my bike, nothing to see here people, move along, move along.
The forecast for today wasn't great, so StreetWalker and I decided to head to Mt Peel Forest to try and find the last of our unfound alphanumeric puzzles that were solved quite some ago, as well as carry on up the Mesopotamia road to see if we could score a couple of FTFs.
We had to wait in the car for a few minutes while we waited for a car to leave the drive way of the house opposite, we think the driver had stopped to take / make a call. A quick find for SW before I even got out of the car. Time to head back to our accommodation in Mt Somers, thanks for the entertainment, BCD.

#15425. The cache name seemed unrelated to the hide, but the cache was easy enough to find. TFTC.
Quick find as we headed out of town.....need to be back in ChCh by a certain time so will make this one of our last for the day.....
Quick find with VikingNav after a short walk from our motel. Thanks for the fun cache! >^..^
In Geraldine on holiday and off for a wee drive while waiting for dinner. A nice quick find in another of the Postman Pat series TFTC
Another super wee introduction to Geraldine. Aha!!!!--- We recognized those containers.!!! Thanks.
Day 1 of our 6-Day End of the Year caching trip to Dunedin. Another nice quick find here aswell and another pedestal win for 3rd place. The mark I kept thinking of would require Pat to bring a spare change of clothes aswell as a bandage. Thanks for placing the cache and adding to our smilies today. Happy Caching
Great day out caching in the area, lot of neat caches, and interesting spots, needed 43 more caches to hit the 10000 finds mark think I got 62 for the day trip. Many Thanks Bitsprayer.

I couldn't believe my luck when 9 new caches were published overnight and 6 of then in the direction I was heading. Ruled out 2 of them, 2nd to sign one, third to sign another but here I struck gold and got to leave my mark under the CO & co
