Nice temple.Cleaning up Victoria with gridge98. We are on a mission this week. Completing twenty finds in Mexican local government areas is the challenge. Another find with the correct criteria. It is in Victoria and we have not accumalated twenty finds in this local government area.Today was the day to find this cache. Today is Tew's day the fifteenth day of the octavus month of the Roman calendar in the wonderful year of twenty twenty four. We found your cache container and added some inky stuff to the paper sheet or note pad you have supplied for a log book or scroll. The cache container and log book or scroll were in good condition. It was a bit windy today. It was so windy today.With the log signed and the cache replaced it was time to leave. Onwards to the next cache. Woot, that is not to far.I would like to show my respect and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Land, and their continuing connection to it. I wish to pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past, present and emerging.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

Vs comment: The chapel has seen better days. We focused on the small task ahead, admired the host of the hide and heard the little grey pony snorting as it was watching. Cache was exposed, we snuggled it back into a slightly more sheltered position.

Like previous geocachers, I found this one on the ground at the GZ and placed it back in the tree - though the weather was so bad today, that I wouldn't be surprised if it was back on the ground already. Thanks for bringing us to this spot and setting up the cache, H_3!

We wanted a little time together out of the house and a break from the renovations, so a short trip was in order.

We love the Moriac area, and Mrs Dromaniax is looking for photography subjects, so this chapel fits her criteria to a T.

So we rugged up and piled the geodogs, Mini Michi, Teeny Treek and Gypsy Girl, into the geomobile Hank and set off.

Mr Dromaniax obtained some nice shots, and we were able to find the cache while we were here.

The cache is in great condition. Thank you for this cache H_3.

Whilst the sun was out shiny in all its glory, we decided to use this time to get out and stretch the legs because the weather is supposed to turn ugly in the afternoon. This area was picked due to the nearby playground and of course a couple of caches.

I spent most of the time explaining to my daughter why we can't just jump the fence and make the chapel our cubby house. Cache was out in the open making it an easy find

Thank you

Wow, the energy and generosity of those who established this little old church, I must do further research. Geocaching, and your efforts in particular, is better for caches like this, because so much history can be missed. Thank you.

Found by Mary and David at 11:34. Just a short caching trip today as we target the last few Solar System Wonders. Thrilled to discover this one. Love your work, and nearly as good as some of your cemetery ones. Now M is humming "Going to the Chapel". Definitely a FP. Dropped off "Marcel's TB". Our thanks to H_3.
