Hi there Cache Owner,
It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is an issue with the placement. The cache is being temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location until the issues/s with this cache can be addressed.
Whilst it is recognized that as a result of the current COVID19 situation, it might not be possible for a Cache Owner to just pop out and check on a cache, we still need to know that you are on top of the issue.
CO's of caches disabled during the current COVID19 crisis will be given some extra time to react. Caches where the cache owner does not currently feel it is safe to maintain will not be archived in the normal time frame, as long as there is some indication from the CO. **Don't let a lack of communication kill this cache.**
#What should you do:-#
- Should the regional Health and State Government requirements allow it **AND** you feel it safe for you to maintain this cache now, please feel free to do so. Don't forget to log an 'Owner Maintenance ' log and also Enable the cache once the issue is fixed.
- **Alternatively,** what you need to do is place a Write Note log indicating a date when you you expect you might be able to attend to the issue/s.
#Please Note#
When the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment from the CO as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.
**JUST A HINT:-** In case you are not aware, there is a new Geocaching Dash Board designed to assist a Cache Owner in managing the caches they own.

Very foggy here this morning and too cold and wet to sit around and have a chat. Luckily, we have found a cache like this before or it could have taken us some time. Thanks for the cache.

Continuing my first caching adventure with OzHockeyChick, Papi4506 & GeoTurtle37 and a mega adventure it is! Last day in town nabbing a few caches.
Paid our respects. Cache is likely not where it was first intended and needs a look to ensure it is not ruined by weather
Thanks Bradshaw Clan for placing the hide!

Mildura, Day 3
This morning it was out to complete some more of the turtle trail. We stopped to locate a few other caches as we passed by. Today we found such a variety of caches, puzzles, multis & some clever gadget caches which we really enjoyed.
Really blended in well, took a second look to find it .

A nice memorial to your grandparents.
The micro is a good match, but it wasn’t too hard to find.

Came back today and finally found it! Great find. It most certainly is a micro! And we said hello to our granddad. TFTC
This one took longer than it should. We knew what to look for and it was in plain sight but it took a while for Miss 13 to spot it. Great hide! SL and replaced. TFTC
We were looking in the wrong place for 10 minutes when I suddenly glanced at it and found it. TFTC

Mildura is a mecca for geocachers - an extensive list of varied and clever caches on offer, it is hard to know where to start!
In the good company of Suscoe we headed SE and found a variety of sneaky caches in interesting locations we would not otherwise have visited. This one was extremely sneaky so we gave it a FP.
Thanks 'Bradshaw Clan' for adding this cache to the geo-gameboard.

Day 94 of our trip. Caching along the way. In Mildura today. A total of 7 for the day and 2633 for the trip. TFTC
Suscoe was out and about again today wandering the raods, parks and bushland areas to the west, south and south east of MIldura.
We were travelling with Phetlern again and having a good bit of fun as we went along finding a very good range of caches.
It was a fairly cloudy day with a strong wind from the south and the clouds looked like they had a good bit of dust in them at times.
It was good to be caching on a coolish day, the flies seem to have been blown away and the sun peeped through every now and again.
Thanks to the Bradshaw Clan for this palcement in this quiet part of the world. This is a well maintained cemetery and it was great to see how well cared for it is.

Geo Mum was actually the first to find this one. Luckily she was in the right place to see it. Poor geo son was looking in the wrong places. Tftc
Despite the dust storm raging around us, this was still a very serene location. Accurate coordinates, the cache name and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Bradshaw Clan for the cache.
Great weekend away in Mildura and surrounds grabbing some fantastic caches and catching up with friends. Drank way too much and felt very ropey all day on Sunday but woke up feeling revitalised for a Public Holiday Monday drive back to Adelaide.
This trip hasn't been about numbers its been about finding quality over quantity and was also great to come away with 7 multi finds as well towards our target of 500, whether we get there this year remains to be seen. Gave away a lot of favourite points here in Mildura some very good caching to be done here and hardly a mint tin in sight.
Saw one brown snake today which gave me the heebie jeebies at least I didn't step on one this time.
We stopped to say hello to your lovely grandparents only to find a funeral in progress nearby. It was a huge affair and Roxy Music was playing as we got out of the car. Thankfully the cache was far enough away for the 300 or so mourning muggles not to even notice we were there. Rex generally loves a cemetery but he was on his best behaviour today, last thing we needed was him gate crashing a funeral. TFTC Bradshaw Clan, a fitting tribute to your grandparents.

Travelling around Australia, camped on the mighty Murray today we headed out to see where Geocaching would take us. We rushed around trying to beat the rain but it did catch up with us before the day was over. "Fun" drive back to the caravan.
What a beautiful cemetery.

Our first visit Murray Pines and it was very well presented and maintained. We paid our respects to Stan and Linda. Found the sneaky cache. Logbook will need replacing soon as there is only space left for 2 more cachers if their writing is small. Thank you for bringing us here - it was an interesting experience.

Had a lovely sit in the winter Sun with Stan and Linda. They were tight lipped as to hidy spot ,We had to find ourselves. TFTC
Just out and about checking on our caches.
All is well here still very much in place and
co-ords are still on point

Once we (myself and clare007) had found the right "resting place" this was a quick find …………………………………… once muggles had moved on! Thanks Bradshaw Clan for the hide!!
Out with CPwanderer today after a drive over the SA/Vic border. Pulled up quite close to gz, but were weary of some nearby muggles paying their repects. The clues & coordinates were spot on & it was a perfect day to be caching. Thanks for bringing us here Bradshaw Clan, a lovely memorial park
Revisited this fresh morning with GeoFamily. Hubby had the cache in hand before I even got the kids out of the car! After my initial quiet visit with the other day with a sleeping toddler today's visit was much different. GeoSon 5 had lots of questions on death and dying.. Ah Geocaching, providing learning experiences of all types. TFTC
DNF on this occasion. Looked in all the obvious places linked to the hint with no luck. Sat an pondered for quite some time with Stan & Linda while my littlest GeoSon snoozed in the car. It's very peaceful here today with a fresh breeze and bird song in the air. I don't visit such places very often, but was impressed to see how neat and tidy everything is here compared to some other places I have visited. Will have to pop back another time with a second set of eyes.
Driving through the gates brings back a lot of memories as my nanna and pop are also here. They sound very similar to yours, very friendly, always had the kettle hot and something homemade around to go with a nice hot drink. We took a moment to sit and reflect. Cache was located and log book signed {FTF} @10:25am. Thanks for bringing us out here today to share the memories of your grandparents.
Have updated co ordinates so hopefully this is easier to find. We do apologise as we checked 3 times but for some reason they were slightly off.
