Thanks for a nicely thought out cemetery cache where we did not have to walk miles in lots of different directions!Lots of effort in the container too!Good out of the way hide as well!TFTC
An interesting little multi we attempted this afternoon while grabbing a few caches over this side of the river. We managed to find the required information and numbers and soon had a reasonable gz loaded and headed off to make a quick find. Found with Happy Feet while exploring the area, thanks again gregandjudi for the cache.
With the sun shining making for perfect weather for caching we continued our onslaught of Echuca before heading over the border to Moama.Wanting to do 2 local multis we headed over the new bridge to the cemetery. Wandered to the back to collect the clues before making our way to the cleverly hidden cache.Thanks gregandjudi for the multi placement.
On a school holiday trip up to Echuca while two kiddos were in the pool and two teenage girls were having a sleep, I came here to make this find.
Gathered the information, calculated GZ, and off we drove, hmmmm this does not look correct, back we go...Reviewed the information, whoops, Bridget died five years too early in our calculations, now corrected, that looks better...GZ was a cinch compared to the calculations as we have seen this type of hide before, TFTC gregandjudi
LeeLee is away for a few days with Mum visiting beautiful Echuca and surrounds. Dropped Mum off to the Day spa, so what does LeeLee do, cache of course! Cals easily obtained. Find took longer. Eventually found at a location I had already placed my hands on. Thanks gregandjudi for creating for us all to enjoy. --------------------------------------------------------The nominees for the [**2023 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards** ](https://geocachingvictoria.com.au/2023-victorian-cache-of-the-year-awards/) have been announced.

We collected the required information and made the calculations then headed off to GZ. Took us a while as the GPSr kept insisting we look somewhere else close by.It was moving day today after a great time spent in Bendigo as we went on to Echuca, a place we have visited before, but this time to spend more time.We picked up a few caches on the way, particularly in Rochester.After setting up we headed over to the Moama side of the river to chase the caches there. Not many people about which was fortunate as there were some challenging hides and some very challenging hides.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache gregandjudi.**SKI Pair****
Canberra GeoBash DashDay Two: Barham to Corowa via SheppartonWeather: Perfect! Smokey in NE Victoria. A brief foray back into NSW for another multi. It looked like it would be quick and easy, and it was. Nice cache/hide at the final coordinates. Thanks for setting this up gregandjudi.
Last one for the trip to Echuca for the music River Boat Festival. Road out on trusty treadles and found the back end of the cemetery interesting indeed. TFTC and the lure! A tad late logging as this has been in draft.
Another nice little cemetery multi ...GZ led me astray for a bit...and I at one point of my search was cm away from the cache...I admit I had to reach out to a PAF who put me back onto the correct path to find this cache.
21:33We arrived just in time for Happy Hour... and just before the heavens opened.So I enjoyed a drink or two, and a meal with the family, watching the sky. As soon as there was a blue patch to the west and the rain had (mostly) stopped, I was out of there.The cemetery is only a block away, and I arrived in fading light, which made reading headstones just that little bit more difficult. But I got the information I needed by the light of my phone, and, fortunately, the cache was in a very logical spot... though I had to find something to do a bit of percussion adjustment to get to it.And I arrived back at the olds' just before the next storm hit. Just in time for a glass of wine and some chocolates.That was fun, gregandjudi. Cheers.#8089
Down in Echuca Moama for the weekend from Queensland. Super busy here in town due to cup day on Tuesday! After lunch we thought this would be a nice quick stop with the muggles were staying with. Worked out the coords quickly, but really had trouble with the actual cache. It was a long search and in the end - I showed the muggle I was with what I had though it was and she had the magic touch. Finally! Signed and replaced without issue. TFTC, from QLD!
Suscoe was having an around Echuca caching morning today.Another delightful day was emerging.We found a good range of caches that took us to interesting places.Thanks to gregandjudi for this multi in the cemetery.A favourite, we do like a good cemetery cache.
Enjoyed the challenge and the clear instructions Chrisrina has a beautiful resting place. TFTCache.
Meet up with family for a few days of caching in Echuca, soon had info needed and cache in hand after widening our search TFTC
Out and about on this beautiful morning, stopped at grab this cool cemetery multi to fill another day in our caching calendar. Giving this a deserving fave point too. TFTC gregandjudi
It’s always interesting to wander around an old cemetery especially if there’s a cache as a bonus. A favourite point for this TFTC gregandjudi
I certainly had some strange looks from muggles passing by but couldn’t avoid that unfortunately.
After a bit of a search in the wrong spot we stood back and noticed the “that doesn’t look right moment”

Not having to venture far from the Gardens, this multi was our next target. Nice easy clues to get our final GZ and conveniently the phone GPS took us on a wild circle of the paddock, taking us twice as far as what the actual distance from the start point was, before settling at the hide. Very clever camo! Thx gregandjudi for the hunt, but sad that poor Christina lost her life at such an early age.

ANZAC Day with Cybergran V and catnap777 and a whole bunch of amazing people we met up with at the event.
Having cached all morning, we finally slipped over the border to claim this one, our first cache for the day in NSW.
A nice little cemetary multi leading us straight to the well hidden cache that was cleverly tucked away and built to last. [^]
TFTC Gregandjudi, from here it was straight to meet up with you and the rest of the clan at the Event you so graciously hosted.

2TF with +Wife.
On our way to your ANZAC Day event.
The sites were easily located, and the numbers crunched.
At GZ, something caught my eye, and we soon had the cache in hand.
Thanks for the multicache, gregandjudi.

Another multi I required, thanks Gregandjudi for placing this one here.
Joint 3rd to find with dalerious and Catnap777 on our way to the annual Central Victorian Get Together at Moama.

Found by Mary and David at 13:45. A FP even before M alighted from the GeoPrado. She loves these places for the graveyard architecture, plus the carved symbolism on the headstones and the social history of the epitaphs. She could have stayed here all day. Check out the exquisite wrought iron, probably produced by a local blacksmith. Great camo at GZ. Many visitors today too. Our thanks to gregandjudi.
It was ANZAC day and the three amigos, aka Cybergran V, dalerious and catnap777 had the whole day planned around a special event in Moama, hosted by our dear friends gregandjudi .
It was a multicache bonanza, and the 3 we completed were a joy from start to finish .
We were blessed with so many new caches, mainly published by our hosts, but other one's that we were keeping aside for just the right time .
The weather turned out to be a corker and the fun had by us was palpable. We got the pleasure of signing our names in such a variety of caches on the one day. I was lucky enough to attend my first event in NSW, which seems strange to me now, but I never attended events when I lived across the border. That all changed when I met my man, and now I haven't looked back .
It definitely turned out to be a gregandjudi day, and didn't we love it. We were even lucky enough to claim a ftf. Most caches were visited early morning, before the event, and we bagged all but a couple that were on our list.
Thank you gregandjudi for providing new caches for us locals.
