A quick find on our way out of St Arnaud doing a circuit on backroads in the area. Enjoyed the story behind this one. TFTC
Loved seeing the fruit trees and hearing the bods chirping. What a cool spot. Thanks for the cache.
A Picturesque spot to stop and enjoy, and a nice quick little find too. I have headed off for a day and a half or so, planning to cache from Maldon, over to Red Bank then wending my way towards Creswick. i will hopefully be tidying up a few stragglers on my map, exploring more GCA caches and visiting at least a couple of new areas. Well, Life is Peachy is find number 4,039 for me. A fun small sized traditional cache I enjoyed finding as one of my caching adventures in Pyrenees Shire. I am logging this one on Monday 23 Sept 2024 at 5:58 pm and the weather is Overcast Clouds 13C 78% 2 m/s . Thanks for placing this cache for the rest of us to enjoy Macmillanfamily.*Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Oops. We did find it. Ahh. Peaches. I too have happy memories of eating too many peaches as a kid! Tftc.
Loved the hint. No such much the spikey plants enroute to the cache, but hey, you get that sometimes. An interesting structure that was certainly worth the reason to stop and have a look. Log was signed and all was good. Thanks for another Macmillanfamily.....
Interesting!!! When I approached I took one look and thought omg all the possibilities!!! Thank god for the clue tftc
Out with sorceysal for a few days at St Arnaud. Along the way we stopped to collect a few caches to add to our finds list.Thankfully sorceysal made the connection here and I spotted the hide. Good one MacmillanfamilyThanks for the fun
On our way to St Arnaud for a couple of days with 6hinemoa2. The Pink Floyd hint was completely lost on 6h2 but certainly in my playlist. Thanks Macmillanfamily. Can't get the song out of my head now. LOL
A weekend camping trip out west, so why not a few caches while in the area.
Spent a while trying to work out what this structure was before Papi4506 read the description. Doh!
Thanks for bringing us here by placing this cache, Macmillanfamily

Geoturtle 37, OzHockeyChick and I set off from camp this morning to head to the Posums birthday bash. Such a shame that these peaches will never be edible, especially when they are right beside a water source. The rosehips were in abundance but we didn't have time to pick any. Thanks for the cache and showing us this interesting slice of times gone by.
Travelling north today after some cache maintenance in Avoca, stopped past this cache on the way. Peaches weren't quite ripe yet today. Interesting well. TFTC Macmillanfamily.
Well life was very peachy this afternoon as we toured Redbank collecting smilies along the way. A nice piece of history here.
Thanks Macmillanfamily for the placement.
Thanks Macmillanfamily for the placement.
The well is certainly not used anymore, but there are peaches starting on the tree… it’s well behind and it’s well into summer and the peaches are still small and hard. So we lucked out there, but our names in the log.
TFTC and local knowledge.

An interesting old well that was part of my Redbank tour today.
Peaches not ready yet but the cache was an easy find thanks to the Floyd!.
Cheers

After camping overnight at the seemingly very popular Moonambel Reserve I headed to Redbank and the cluster of caches here A very sneak hide here. Pity the peaches weren’t in season as they are one of my favourite fruits. TFTC McMillanfamily
Found on our way home from the long awaited mega in Whittlesea. We camped overnight at the very well maintained Moonambel Rec Reserve and despite the weather we managed to get out and find a few caches in the area. Cache was well hidden despite being in the open. The highlight for the day though was seeing a 14 yo driving herself home from school!
Thanks for contributing to the fun Macmillanfamily

TFTC. After the rains , the geo-vehicle needed a run to blow out the cobwebs. After going to the racecourse we drove around here. A quick find. Wrong time of year for any fruit but looks a great spot to sit and contemplate.All good with the container and logbook.
Thanks for sharing this story from your childhood Macmillanfamily.
We stopped here and noticed the new generation of Peach trees in full bloom today with that delightful pinkish red colour blossoms.
The timbers have seen better days so we stayed in contact with the ground.
A local was out enjoying a jinker ride with their horse, a tranquil and delightful thing to see.

Dromaniax needed to get their Caravan to their block in Moonambel so I offered the use of my geomobile (The Ginja Ninja, named because it is used for stealth caching attacks) to aid the project. Once the van was delivered we set up camp so the rest of the afternoon and even could be devoted to some caching.
A plan was formed with a mix of Adventure labs and caches heading to St Arnaurd for dinner.
Dromaniax had already cleaned out a lot of Redbank being so close to their block so it was just me out looking for this tonight.
The hint here was expected and had me on point for a quick find
Thank you Macmillanfamily for the smiley

Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. There were many bees close to the cache as they pollinated the flowering peach trees which were very close by. Thanks Macmillanfamily for the cache.

Love this spot!! Peaches weren't quite ripe yet but there's quite a few on the tree. Thanks for bringing us to this awesome spot.
We were taking a random drive around the area with the three geodogs, Gypsy Girl, Tiny Treek and Mini Michi. We had thought we had done all the caches near Moonambel and noticed this new cluster near Redbank. We thought it a good idea to investigate and so we did. We had headed to the cemetery before we remembered we had found that cache earlier. On the way back to town we stopped at the well and found this cache. Fortunately we felt that the clue could have meant a number of things, The Wall or The Dark Side of the Moon. Thankfully it wasn’t Wish You Were Here as we found the cache. The cache is in excellent condition. Thank you for this cache Macmillanfamily. An FP from us as we love Pink Floyd and this was a really cool place for a cache.
We headed out to enjoy our day and some family time too, thanks for bringing us along some roads we would never of normally travelled and to see some areas we have just passed by, wish the peaches had been ripe, TFTC and all the fun
Find No. 3508. Found with FUF009 at 4.34pm
Joint First to Find. {*FTF*} No. 78
This one had been published one week ago and still no one had found it, so after work we headed down to Redbank in our ute with Geodog Penny on board, to hopefully get FTF on it.
An easy find. We quickly opened the log book to see if any names were in it. Luckily for us it was empty so we both claimed a joint FTF. We couldn't believe it had been sitting there for one week and not been visited especially when it is not far from the main road.
After signing the log we then decided seeing how we were in Redbank we may as well do the others in the area so off we went.
