Nice quick and easy find.Wondering if this the COs home?Now to look at the next one in the neighborhood TFTC
Found during the Great Victoria Cache Crawl event (day 3). SEBBowen123, thank you so much for placing it for everyone to enjoy and highlighting this area.
Over the weekend, we went on a Cache Crawl from Sunbury to Echuca, and then to Seymour. The cache was in great condition when we found it. Thank you for placing the cache SEBBowen123.
quick find had to wait for a few muggles to go past before retrieving, signed log and put back, cache in excellent condition tftc
First time seeing this unique type of cache container, maybe pigs do fly, TFTC SEBBowen123
Needing a find today to fill a calendar spot, I was glad work took me to Echuca-Moama with plenty of caches to choose from. I thought this would be a quick park and grab without the need to get my work clothes dirty and out of sight from muggles. I had been to the aged care facility for work a few times but never any further down the road. I parked within 4m of gz for a quick find. Loved the cache. Nice spot for a hide too. TFTC
Our last day in Echuca before moving on, but what a good one it was. Some of the best caching we have done in a long time. Some really innovative, intriguing and creative hides that took us some time, but well worth it. Thank you so much to the creators/hiders.A challenging but well spent day.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache SEBBowen123.**SKI Pair****
Whilst blending in seamlessly with a bush, I was somehow spotted by a muggle.. one half of team SEBBowen. TFTC - left a sticker.
First cache for the day as we arrived in Echuca after travelling the short distance from Rochester this morning.Didn't take long to find this unusual cache container. Did have a bit of trouble closing it though.Thanks, always good to start the day with an easy one.
Out with for a paddle steamer ride on the Murray. A little bit high for little littlecogs to spot so she got second place to Cogs06.TFTC
Out for a trip to Echuca for a paddle steamer cruise with little littlescogs so stopped for a cache in the 33 degree heat.Quick easy find if you're a grown up.TFTC
We have never found a cache on Boxing Day, thats because its a day for watching cricket for Geohub. Anyway we have been trying to fill our caching calendar this year.and Ive got up early to come and grab this cache, then hike in time for the cricket. Hope everyone had a merry Christmas.

Find No. 4467. Found with FUF009 at 3.27pmHeaded up to Echuca (in the car) to do the TTT series V2 seeing how we needed to find some caches to earn to Solstice Souvenier.FUF009 came with us.After we completed the series of V2 caches we headed into Echuca for a look around and have our picnic lunch. Done a couple of Adventure Labs while walking around the Port and also got a virtual.On our way home we seen this one not far off the road so we made a detour to grab it. First up we continued on down to the end of the road and decided to have a well earned cuppa and something to eat.A nice spot for a picnic but disappointing only to see a table and no seats to sit at, so we had to stand. We did enjoy our cuppa though. After our cuppa it was back in the car and down the road to grab the cache and sign the log before heading home after having a very enjoyable day in and around EchucaTFTC
Find # 13231Found with Tyred n Cranky.Needing to find some caches for the Solstice Souvenir. We decided to head up Echuca way and tackle the TTT series again.... well the "V2"s that is.TTT V2 caches done, shopping done, a couple of ad labs and a virtual done. Now time to head home. We took advantage of the park at the end of the lane, having a drink n bite to eat b4 the drive home. Then on the way out of the area we grabbed this one. Quick grab and all is good with cache. TFTC SEBBowen123
The sun was shining and the day was perfect for a little bit of geocaching, Today was a chance to find some of those caches that have sat on my unfound list for way too long.Thank you, SEBBowen123, for this cache.#4268. Log signed at 2136Hrs.(I often sign the log book as "W+W" to save paper/time/ink)
Cache found and log signed with dalerious . A quick stop and grab on an even quicker visit to Echuca on a bigger mission elsewhere. You are right, absolutely no pigs in sight. Spotted an unusual container though .Signed log, placed container back and headed on our way.Thank you SEBBowen123 and congratulations on your first hide. May there be more.
Found with catnap777 as we blew through town after a weekend chasing EarthCaches much further afield. An interesting little container. ..... Although when found the lid was off [B)], but the contents were still in good order and it was returned a little more securely. [^]TFTC SEBBowen123 and congratulations on placing your first hide. We took our sparkle with us.
A nice easy find on the edge of Echuca suburbia as I left town today.As I was logging a little girl cried out from a passing car that she had found it!!Cheers
A quick find on a quiet morning.Took a green stone SEB, which I know are your favourites.TFTC SL TB's visited
Suscoe decided to head out west to Terrick Terrick and then south east to Lockington before returning to Echuca today.It was a delightful day with sunshine, a breeze and lots of caches to find.Lots of green paddocks, a few sheep and some dairy and beef cows and one white goose as well.Thanks to SEBBowen123 for this placement.Lovely plants nearby.
We were Devo that we werent a first to find with this being around the corner. That will teach me for not having notifications on. My best friend Sarah actually told me that her friend placed one here so maybe we will cross paths in the muggle world one day. Thanks for the cache.
A quick find while in Echuca today

FTF} Have been staying in Echuca for a few days and noticed today a FTF was up for grabs. It was just on dark when I arrived and was greeted by a spider siting on the cache. Thanks for hiding SEBBowen123 and congrats on your first geocache hide and a fav point for the little fright that the live spider gave me at GZ.
We are heading up to the Shepparton Marathon and taking the long way via Echuca. The plan is to get 20 geocaches in the Campaspe and Moira LGAs and at least 1 cache in whatever NSW LGA Moama is in. Not sure it will happen with our tight schedule, but will see how it goes.
After doing the Echuca Moama Parkrun, we had enough time to grab a few geocaches before needing to head back and leave the apartment.
I ama FTF Hound, but didn't expect any caches to be released here, and with time tight, I didn't put an local notifications on. Really should have, as I might have been able to race off and grab this as FTF. However I'll have to settle with second place.
Didn't actually see this cache at all, only noticed it after I physically bumped my head on it.
Thanks for the cache SEB Bowen 123
