Out and about today poking around the area with Grannan55 and Geodogs. What a lovely place, the cemetery is beautiful. The cache is a cracker. Only lost a little bit of blood. Thanks for placing this cache here for me to find. All good here. Now, onto the next one for the day. TFTC

Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. Moving today from Shepparton to Wangaratta. Couldn't be too early at the caravan park so a detour to drop the van off and head out to pick up some caches near Dookie and Devenish. TFTC lorigus74 [^]
Shepparton is an area that we often drive through but has never been a destination. This Kings birthday long weekend we made it our destination to tick off some caches in the area
Nice easy find, thinking I would have a chance to use my newly acquired toot, I drove the car to gz, what do you know, I didn't need to use them, the 4wd did the job perfectly

TFTC. lorigus74 for your cache Cashel cemetery that we found today.
We are staying at our daughter’s farm block just about mid way between Shepparton and Violet Town. After spending the morning on the phone trying to organise things we headed out toward Dookie to find some caches and enjoy the sunshine,
This took a minute to spot. We blame the sun in our eyes. Got the TOTT and quickly had our names in the log.
Find Count: 16301

Rutherglen Mega Roadtrip
Day Six: Wangaratta to Kerang
Weather: Sensational morning, Smokey afternoon.
After a beautiful crisp clear morning in the Warby Ovens Park, it now seems like all of Victoria is on fire as the burn off season begins. Google Maps has decided that I need to come via these backroads to get to Kerang, and I don’t mind as that often results in passing some less loved caches.
We’ve had some reminders in the last week or so that caching up trees is not without its risks, so with being alone, I carefully assessed the danger here and decided to proceed. An uneventful sign and return.
Thanks for getting me to stop here lorigus74.
It’s officially a mega!

Here lyeth a delightful country cemetery
And with a name like Cashel,
it needed a cashe nearby
A while passed by,
as I looked to the sky,
to try and espy,
the cache nearby
As neck strain set in,
I had a win,
when I saw the 'tin',
and the fun could begin
This cache was well out of reach and I aint no koala,
so a TOTT was employed for the retrieve
Even with the tool it was a stretch and I soon had sore arms to match me sore neck
I suffered for me art grabbing this cache

With the rest of the family in Sydney and a busy few weeks coming up at work I decided last week to have a day off to go caching. Looked at the map and initially thought about Shepparton but then saw an intriguing collection at Mount Major so that became my target. Picked what would be a sunny day (was raining when I left Albury but was fine most of the day - though very windy). In the end a successful day with 26 caches found and one DNF. Turned out to be a Team BGF day.
Parked across the road and inspected GZ - nothing seen but headed back to the car where I conveniently still had my new TOTT on the boot. Lugged it across the road and up I went for a look but still nothing. Was just writing a note saying no luck when one last search revealed a likely spot and there it was. No way I was getting that with assistance and do the tool was applied again and the cache was logged.

Road Trip!
Not a lot on the agenda Friday night meant we could find a couple that had been on our radar for way too long. [^]
As catnap777 and I both love a tree climb, this cache was long overdue.
TFTC lorigus74. A lot of fun and another fine contribution to the gameboard.

Was on our way to goodness knows where, when we thought we outa climb a tree before tea.
Well, that's not exactly how it went, and goodness knows we don't need an excuse to climb a tree.
Thank you Lorigus74 for the cache, and The Blind Side for replacing the cache to where it belonged.

Headed out to Dookie to fill a hole in my calendar. I was lucky enough to see the cache on the ground. I'm presuming it had fallen from on high. Signed the log and replaced back up high, probably not where it previously was but still in the vicinity. Thanks Lorigus74 for this cache.
Happy wet morning! We brought and used the TOTT, but could have done without the rain to assist our efforts! SL at 8.05am On our way to Tatura for some caching fun. #8537 TFTC lorigus74
Saw this on the map driving home from Shepp to Wangaratta. Hadn’t seen it before but that is coz it’s new. 2TF!
Had a look wondering why the difficulty rating then read the description and hint. Oh, that’s why. No TOTT in the car so just had a go. With great shoes on was able to get it.
Whoops. No pen. Took it out of my pocket back in Shepp. So, 2 climbs and a log book signed. TFTC.

Rex and I had just returned home[^][|)][^] after having been into Shepparton to buy a new CPAP mask for me[^][|)][xx(][^][^]
I'd let Rex have a swim in the lake at Moooroopna on our way in [:X][^], too, as he was hot and he loves a swim to cool down
We'd just got in the van[^] when I heard 'ping'[?] and almost didn't look, having seen caches published in SA not too long before[:o)]
I grabbed the GPSr and jumped into the Corolla[:X][^], setting Nuvi for the posted coords[^], and about half an hour later we weren't in the cemetery but just outside of it[^]
Getting out the usual TOTT, I realised that it wouldn't help me
Out with another TOTT to use in combination with the first TOTT
Finally I pulled out yet another TOTT[:X] and thankfully, this one allowed a very quick retrieval[^]
SL[^] Woohoo! *FTF*
Managed to eventually replace the cache, as replacing is much harder than retrieval
It's been a week of animals on road: Wangaratta was Lenny the steer[:X] who was safeguarded by ChookNChunk[^][:X][^],
Monday, Rex and I found a lovely black bull[:X] and then advised the nearest householder[^][^] and today, there was 2 sheep waiting at the bus stop, albeit somewhat impatiently
