Found it with rex46 on 20/11/24 on our way to Berwick . What a beautiful day

With dot558 doing caches as we travel to berwick for squaredancing Catching up to ones that mitzi123456 had done without usThanjs for bringing us here

#4596A relatively quick find here today. Thankfully the market wasnt too close so we could look in peace. Forgot pen so the missus asked someone nearby for one. Signed and replaced. Thank you

Nice and easy

Nope!

Easy find

Pen doesnt work nice and easy

Late night walk by very close to our new house

While doing support and photography duties for the second Berwick Half Marathon I thought I would take the 2 kilometre stroll over to this geocache. With the runners doing 21 kilometres for the run, I couldn't justify driving. Had the place to myself, one reason I have avoided this geocache for soo long. As such it was a quick find in the second place I looked.Thanks for the cache Mr Coffee and the Coffee ClanHunter

Persistence paid off here. It didn't match the hint exactly but was close to where it was suggested ,and the GPS was very accurate. Thanks for bringing me here, how interesting.

Nope couldn't find it

Looked under landing nowhere to be found

Had been for dinner locally and thought we would fit in a geo between showers and before bed time, so we stopped down the road for this little one, exactly where it was on the map with x marks the spot. TFTC The Coffee's.

Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".

So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.

**Thanks to The Coffee's for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

Setting up for a wedding too close to GZ

I needed this cache for a hole in my 'month hidden' stats however I was delighted to come to this historic location and walk around the gardens. Thanks for bringing me here to explore!

This is our second time searching for this one. The last time we looked for ages with no success. This time we found it in under 3 mins. Now the kids can have a play on the playground. Tftc

Out with echidna44. What a lovely place. We stopped by some of the buildings and examined all the tools from the past. Thanks for making us stop here Mr Coffee and thr Coffer Clan!

Out caching in the Narre Warren area with pinnacle333, we had a pleasant walk along the trail in the sunshine.
On our way home (via the detour) we passed this cache.
We looked around the beautiful gardens and Historic buildings, but some rooms were in use. Thanks for the History of the Cheese Factory Mr Coffee and the Coffee Clan.

Cute little hide took me two times to find

On the way to a local event to celebrate International Geocaching Day and took the opportunity to grab a cache or two along the way. I had had a few attempts at finding this one before but always there were too many muggles about. Today we were a little early for muggles so I quickly made the find. Thanks you to Mr.Coffee and the Coffee Clan for placing the cache.

Cheesy

Work took me to Narre Warren South today. If I described my day, you wouldn't believe it! But suffice to say on my way home I thought, "I've come this way, I might as well grab a cache." So this one was one that required a short walk and I could be inconspicuous considering I was driving a hearse so in the end it was a quick park and grab with only three other cars in the car park so I pretty much went unnoticed. Not sure the cache was supposed to be where it was but I found it nonetheless. TFTC

Quick find today. Not many muggles which made it easier

Nice winters day even if it is icy cold. We thought we would get the blood pumping to try warm up a lottle by getting out for a ride and grab a few caches. Nice hide. TFTC

Found at 2:32 pm.
After a road trip to Sydney in the last few days to find a golden dragon, I also finally had Australia's oldest cache found so I needed a cache placed in June to qualify for a Jasmer challenge I had signed in SA last year so headed out along the highway with my geokid to get sidetracked with a few of the new caches along the railway line.

Great day to come here with not many people around. No one around today which was different to when I came here many many years ago and the cache was found quickly a very long way under at GZ.
Thanks The Coffee's for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Dropped by today and did a bit of maintenance and a plan to revitalize this cache a bit better. All good and new container on its way.

We stopped in on our way to the nearby Xmas eve event to grab this one, a nice easy find in a completely quiet carpark. Cache was found quickly and soon had the log book signed and put back all safe again! TFTC!

This was close by to where we stopped for food, so of course we had to check it out. It was the first find of 4 cache types I'd set myself to collect for the night. An impromptu phone call to a sibling (non caching related) as I waited for Beckgiz to find the thing before I did. The cache was found and signed and returned. A lovely and interesting place here with nice gardens. A pity I couldn't hang around to enjoy it a little more.

Thanks to Mr Coffee and the Coffee Clan. I've had two myself today. And reading this Jack Reacher book, coffee is literally mentioned on every page!

buhfuhguh and I spent the day caching around the Berwick/Pakenham area with quite a mix of cache types filling up the time.
I visited this cache a little over two years ago but wound up with a DNF as it was missing.
Since then, the CO had checked up on it and it was ready to go once more.
Sure enough, I walked right up to gz and spied it immediately in a spot I recall searching thoroughly the last time I was here!
The logbook had both of our names added to it and all was replaced as found once more - this blue face is now yellow!

Thanks to The Coffee's for placing this cache here all those years ago and continuing to maintain it!

The old cheese factory is one of those places I always knew existed but never really mentally processed it was there and indeed real. I know that may be a seemingly strange thought but what do you know that's just how this rock filled brain works.

With Brainiac03 in tow today commenting that he had been here previously unable to observe the cache itself, briefly mentioning pokemon go related distractions.

Nice and easy for the family to find together. Thank you!

Quick find on a lovely morning for a picnic tftc

Found on a lovely sunny day whilst visiting for birthday party. TFTC

Awesome spot

Well this was different I found two caches in this spot, one appears to be a replacement. Signed both and both are back next to each other. Got muddy knees today reaching in to grab the find! Perfect day as very little people about due to rain. Will message CO with photo of both caches.

No idea why we have never visited this establishment in the past as it’s not too far from home, so it was a good excuse today to check out this place. The gardens are beautiful and a few families were enjoying themselves.

After a walk around and a couple of places checked, Steve managed to make the find.

Thanks for bringing us here today Mr Coffee and for highlighting the history of the old cheese factory.

Found this one. Thanks.

A pit stop with The Welder and our minis. Whilst others stayed behind, master nine aka geoninja and I decided to go and collect this cache. With muggles heading home, we had enough quiet to collect the cache and sign it. Thanks for the cache.

Too many muffles and not enough time

Pleasant winters day for some caching. Tried here some time ago, but had to walk away due to a wedding going on. Today no one around we went to GZ and after a small search the cache was located. Log signed and all back safe again.
Had a stroll around before departing.
Thanks

With our new freedoms, we decided to venture as far as we were allowed to find a few caches.
We had driven nearby this place a million times but never thought to drop in.
What a beautiful place. Classic buildings in some lovely surroundings.
The cache was found nicely tucked away underneath.
Thanks Coffee Clan for showing us this place.
Chiefton!!!

Found it

Found it. GPS is slightly out but not by alot. Signed and returned. Thanks

Found early this morning, with the place deserted. This cache has been on my to-do list for quite a while now. In good condition and replacement log signed.

Out with the kids today and this is cache number 2. We couldn't find it and the kids had a play on the playground. Returned to fill up the water bottles and saw a spot that would be a good hide. Didnt bring a pen though so no entry in the book. Thanks for the hide, haven't been here for a few years.

Fixed up this cache forgot to enable, however all good to go, the container is a bit smaller at this stage but all will be revealed later as to why.

Sorry for the delay, I will have this online in the next couple of days.

Good news as the area is reopening on the weekend and the cache will be in place by Monday.

The good news is the location will be open again soon and I will have it online soon,
Regards
The "No Decaf" Coffee's

The Cheese Factory is closed due to Stage3 Covid-19 restrictions and I have now disabled the cache until this Pandemic is declared safe and the grounds are reopened.
Please do not jump the fence or gates the cache container has been removed and all logs will be deleted from today onward.

I will check this cache tomorrow.

Gps really sluggish today with 16m accuracy. Checked obvious spots but no luck.

No luck today

Had a decent search before people started turning up and we called it quits.

Find number 7284 at 1:25:29 pm
Out and about today catching up on some chores on my day off. Also chasing a couple of pre-2006 caches to whittle down the oldies I have remaining (isn't it sad to realise you guys are among the oldies) .
Been here before but it was way too busy then, today was nice and quiet, although there were a few workers setting up for a big event, probably a wedding tomorrow, tents everywhere.
**Thanks for placing this cache Mr.Coffee and the Coffee Clan**

A quick find in between ordering and collecting fish and chips - queues out the door on good Friday. Didn't realise how old ye this cache was until logging -,tftc

Walker fam found this cache on 11th April 2019 with the help of our friends, took longer than it should waiting for muggles

*27 Dec 2018, Found @11:26 am, Find # 2332.*

Having searched for this one over more than a year ago, it was nice to come back and make a quick find. I'm not sure how I missed spotting it last time.

**Thanks to The Coffee's for placing this cache.**

Brought the geo daughter 7 out caching with me this afternoon although she was more interested in the playground than the cache. Eventually I convinced her we needed to search for the cache and after a few missed guesses we soon had the cache in had. Good to see the temp cache is still going strong

With a hole in our calendar, and having spent the bulk of this wonderful day in the garden at home, we headed off for a coffee, a cache and a look at some other wonderful gardens. This place is very close to home so it had been saved for just this occasion, however to our utter dismay the coffee shop was closed. "Only open until 1pm on a Saturday" read the sign. Disheartened but not deterred, we wandered the area anyway looking at the wide array of plants and vegetables and the different design features employed in these gardens. Now with the taste buds at war for some caffeine, Kat quickly found and returned the cache so we could seek out another suppler of the brown beans. TNLNSL. TFTC. KKams

Nice easy find whilst at the food truck rally.. TFTC

Sneaky but clever spot

Given hint for easy find today. This is such a nice place to visit kids everywhere today its school holidays! Thankyou

Got here early found gz but then compass had me going back and forth. After a while people started coming to work so will have to leave it fir another day.

Found your cache easy enough signed and replaced TFTC
Grabbed TB

Over this side of town for a 1st Birthday party for a kid we’ve never meet and with people we don’t know. Of course that means I’m going to check the maps and see what’s around. Perfect, this is right where we are.
Thanks for keeping me and GeoSon entertained for a few minutes.

After 2 DNFs it was a relief to find this one. And we met a chook. TFTC. No need to do what I did and try and get under the landing.

A nice and easy pickup in the night time. We passed a gent that had two phones out? I'm not sure what he was up to... perhaps Uber as I know they often use two phones. Anything else I might not want to know about it. On the way out my daughter demanded a creepy night go on the swing-set, I like to think about the swings still moving after we left and a random walking past being all like whaaat? Cow ghosts! Dropped a TB which I have had for way too long.

Thank you for the cache all you 'so.
We found it months ago and I now realise that we never recorded it. Sorry guys.

Found with PapaGrouch. I had looked for this once before with no luck but tonight when it was quiet it was finally found. TFTC

It was a free evening after work so I headed to the Hallam Valley Trail and nearby to try a few caches. I started with the Minecraft series and once I was done I grabbed some food on the run and headed south to here. Nice and quiet in the park so I was able to search where I needed to. Found the cache after a bit of looking and all good until I whacked my head on the handrail and was seeing stars for a bit. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache Mr Coffee and the Coffee Clan. An interesting attraction here that I wasn't previously aware of.

I've been here a couple of times before but the cache had eluded me both times.
Today I brought the Mini-Welder bookends. In warm sun and a gusty north wind we eventually found a park in the adjoining paddock. I felt a little underdressed as we wandered past a large fancy party on our way to GZ.
I began giving my senior henchman (Pikanite) the mission briefing but the spiel was immediately interrupted when The Turquoise Minion joyfully exclaimed those famous words, "I found it!!"
And indeed he had... in record time!! I couldn't have been more proud.
Such a quick find could only mean one thing - more time on the playground!

Thanks to the Coffee's for this longstanding cache in a fabulous location. The Turquoise Minion will always remember this adventure.

Out with the camera club along with the CO. Cache in good order. Now for a Coffee 8 October 2017 12:14 pm find 1593

Today we explored Beaconsfield and surrounds using Geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way and this was one of them. An easy find at GZ once at the right level..

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

The lots of people around was a group including us playing Pokemon on a Poke Raid. Glad you found the cache.

Loads of people around

Found. Nice and easy

MontsII and myself decided on some early morning caching. This one took much longer than it should have! TFTC The Coffee's

Finally found this one with Mazzy and Dipper. I have lost count of the number of times I have looked and not found this one for different reasons. Lost, too many muggles, building works, but today, it was a lucky day. TFTC

Out with Dippa46 and WeRAmused. (NicNax3) Quick find. TFTC

While out for a cache hunt with NicNax3 we came across this one and yes we did find it thanks. TFTC

Good one, TFTC

Found by Addi, Parker & Ainsley.

Out with Lukie1987 & SammiJo today. Noticed this was back in play so I simply had to return to turn that sad face into a smiley. TFTC The Coffees!

I headed out here with geowife and ozghockeychick for a ride to do a small series what ended up being so great for ozhockeychick as her tyre decided to go flat so only ended up getting half but me and geowife got the lot. thanks for the cache.

Took a detour after dropping the kids at school to see if I could pick up some unloved on this one. I'd tried to find it a while back when I was a newby with no luck.

I'm sure I checked where I found it today last time so I suspect it wasn't there last time. Even in the morning this is a busy spot, lots of gardeners around too so I did a lot of casual photo taking and sitting looking at my phone

Thanks for replacing it, a great start to my morning, let's hope the rest of the day is as successful!

Dropped by today and could not believe it had gone again, replaced with a new container, new security cameras may help in the future if it keeps vanishing.
all good to go

7:57 pm
No luck for us here today.

Searched and searched and searched and searched and did I mention we searched for this but couldn't find this one.

No success for me either...

I had a good search here at night with no luck will need to come back during daylight hours

Look all around

All good to go.

I found the cache container replacement but not the original, the complex offered surveillance footage to view however we will assume wild animals took it and move on. i have taken the container and preparing a new container which will be in soon.

On a maintenance run today I was unable to find the cache so I hope the last finders can help. In the meantime I have disabled until I sort this out.

Yeah we finally found it
