Spring Time Kyneton, Victoria, Australia
By Keeper of Time on 15-Jul-06. Waypoint GCX1X3

Gone.

Unfortunately muggled. No sign of the cache at all. Thanks Keeper of time.

There has been some tree work at my calculations may be a check
Time co is near here.

No luck today.

Found on our way to Bendigo for the weekend. As we approached the intersection near here I made the comment to Mrs Fergzter that there must be a cache over there. Sure enough we looked at the map and there was one. We were not planning to stop as we were headed into town for lunch, but opportunity beckoned. Once calculated the cache was found in good order. Thanks for placing this one for us to find today Keeper of Time.

Camped nearby for the night we thought we had better find this quick multi.Thanks to the Keeper of Time for filling in some time for us.

Doing record keeping and this one has slipped by the radar. Sometimes I don't press the button hard enough and often I press the wrong one. Catching up now.
Enjoyed the multi and the area and sorry for the late logging.

En route to Seymour. What a beautiful spot - they were working on the creek ??? clearing logs etc?? I really loved this cache hence the favourite. Thanks so much.

Moneydork and Mrs Moneydork had very kindly invited me, last November, for a caching trip to Victoria over the Australia Day weekend [:X]
A massive trip with 13 DNFS and 318 finds over 7 days and many kilometers of travel
My knees don't want to bend anymore after a massive ride on the Ballarat Skipton Rail Trail and then about 145 finds the next day while finishing the Dad's Mt. Disappointment Driving Lesson series [xx(] Seems my driving lesson was about me keeping both feet on the ground as I broke my own record by doing the autumn leaf thing 4 times in one day [xx(]
Still a fantastic trip with great sights and lots of cache finds [^]

A travel day today as we head from Ballarat to Seymour.
We picked up this cache on our way out there
That's a timeless example of a multi

An interesting spot

I had gathered the required info earlier but somehow we had a mixup with where i thought GZ was. Luckily we headed out in the best direction and luck was on our side. Log signed and happily passed around to Claybol and virbull before being replaced. Tftc

A nice spot and a strightforward multi. Once the final co-ords were calculated, we strolled over to make the find. There was a small frog near GZ today! Just as we were about to leave, a muggle pulled up to collect his supply of spring water. Thanks KoT.

A quick stop on the way home from Bendigo. Tired legs, sore feet and a sense of satisfaction. Plenty of caches found today, but one last stop off here couldn't be resisted.
Nice little cache. The tb that is in the inventory isn't here though.

Find #1248 for me. This was the final cache find after a pleasant caching trip with jtnsilo (Lois), leaving Bendigo nice and early at 6am to beat the heat. Later in the day we joined up with virbull after refreshments at a nearby cafe. By the time we arrived here it was 4pm but while hot, there was cloud cover and a slight breeze making it quite pleasant (or not unbearable at least!). We gathered the information at the posted coordinates and treated ourselves to some wonderful mineral water. After making the necessarily calculations we were set to head for our calculated GZ about 1km away by car. Just as we started out on the next leg of our journey however, Lois noticed something that looked like a cache hide. It turns our she was right and it was this cache! Later in the comfort of home I found the obvious error in our calculations, but thanks to Lois' keen eye we still made a quick find! Way to go! Thanks for bringing us here to this lovely refreshing location Keeper of Time. This cache also contributed to the Multicache Monthly Challenge this month which we are attempting, so an extra thanks for placing this straightforward little multicache for us to find here today!

Found with jtnsilo and claybol.....

Stopped for a toilet stop during a heavy downpour. Looked like it would go over soon so decided to attempt this cache. Got the numbers and as the sun came out headed for the cache. Was easily found as it had been muggled, the contents scattered and the cache full of water. Gathered everything up and signed the surprisingly dry log and hid it in what appeared to be its original hide and camoflaged.

Quick co ords with a quick find

Uae to come here every weekend and see my grandma amd get our dose of mimeral water.

Still come to get the mineral water

Thanks for the memories and tftc

Team Autumn out today on the hunt for caches while traveling to Bendigo to visit Poppy. Stopped to fill up with spring water and do this cashe. TFTC.

TB owner logging an edit to place a geocoin left by nadsalator. The geocoin had previously been marked as missing.

Left the Clock tower which and been missing for some time.

Find # 3730 @ 1202 H

After a quick pit stop I back tracked to grab this cache. working out the location for GZ was quite simple apart from the muggles that were interested in why I needed the information.
A couple of white lies later and I went to my ute to "collate" the information, and to wait out the muggles.
Once they had left I made a quick and perfect parking move and soon had the cache in hand.

TFTC Keeper of Time

Last one for our trip, now its on to home. Thanks for all the interesting caches

Lovely spot, nice easy find.
Took nothing but left a $100 note.

Nice little stop off. Perfect for a spring day

Bit squishy in the park after all the rain but an interesting cache

Having spent a weekend of visiting rellies and attending dinner engagements in Melbourne, we decided to cache our way home the long way, picking up one or two at each town along the way.

Pulled up at the first waypoint and there was a gentleman and his wife filling many large bottles with the water. Gathered the required information then made the short walk to GZ. Nobody looking our way as we quickly found the cache then moved away to sign the log. Dropped the Deadly Duck trackable Elbert and removed a cigarette lighter from the cache. Replaced it just as easily. Great location - thank you for bringing us here and for the cache Keeper Of Time.

Enjoyed walking along the river with diana8 and mistermagee. Weather had fined up for a nice afternoon and this one didn't take us too long to find. TFTC.

Away on geocache weekend to Bendigo with diana8 and JulesC21. Our goal is to find 30 multis in the month of June. This was number 6 for the weekend. This cache was a quick grab, and it's in good condition. Thanks for bringing me here and TFTC.

Nice location and some interesting information there. Cache location easily retrieved and cache easily found. TFTC

A stop for mineral water had us looking for this one. A very cold brisk day to be out but a quick find luckily.

Found it on a cool afternoon with Sister.

TFTC. It's our 150th find! While going home from weddenburn for theoldblokes event we decided to get some caches on the way back and decided close to home to stop for food and found our 150th find. Thanks again.

Camping here for the night , nice handy cache tftc

Thanks for the cache.

Thanks for the cache.

In kyneton for a wedding and what else do you do when you have time to fill what a great little spot for a quick rest stop and get some spring water. I worked out the puzzle pretty quick and was soon of on my way to get the cache a quick search and i had it signed the log and replaced for the next person. Cordinations were spot on tftc tnln

As I arrived at GZ I saw this old bloke filling up bottles of water from the pump and loading them into his car. The funniest thing was that the car had the sticker on the boot "Irresistible Bitch" and a kissie lips next to that! He certainly didn't 'fit' his car... Put the coords into the GPS and then off the the final. Wow THAT was exposed, especially today! Muggle car after muggle car... I should have parked right next to it, to give myself just a tad more cover. TFTC

A beautiful spot for a cache. tftc

Great little rest area to stop for a cache on our way to Trentham. Staying in Castlemaine for the weekend, with family history and caching on the menu. Nice little multi. SL at 9.03am Took: Mega 2015 GC LN TFTC Keeper of Time #3416

Found this one with the geowife it took us to a spot we would probably never have stopped at. The mineral water was a nice surprise and refreshing. Work out the info need and a shirt walk and the cache was in hand. TFTC.

Beautiful spot for a cache. GeoHubby and I put our heads together to work out coordinates and cache was soon in hand. TFTC

The final find for the epic LGA road trip with nanton34 and it took us to a spot that nanton frequented growing up. We drank and stored a decent amount of spring water then gathered clues to GZ for what was a quick find as far as multis go. tftc

Last cache on a journey of about 1500 km we were heading home when a discussion of the springs began. tuns out eighthknox was unfamiliar so we detoured to this great reserve where we enjoyed the mineral water and collected the info needed to lead us to the cache. Turns out it took me to a part of the reserve I was unaware of TFTC

Collected the clues, then a short walk to GZ where the cache was located. Very good co ords made this find a quick one. Thanks Keeper of Time.

We spent the day around Kyneton catching up with family.
We usually just pass through but today we actually got to explore the local area.
We didn't know Kyneton had a Mineral Spring, but now we do.
Fantastic to find a cache published before we started too!
Thanks for the hide.

Found with the family after meeting up with my cousins.
I liked this hide, thanks for showing us this spot.
The water tasted really funny, but it was fun pumping the water out.

Found with Mum, Dad and Eddie.
I liked the walk to this cache.
Lots to see around here.
Thanks for bringing us to this spot.

Very nice TFTC, dropped in with the family after having dinner in Castlemaine to figure this one out.

TFTC
A easy find in a nice area.
A lot of caravans call into this way-side park.

Did the solving well and found cache soon after TFTC, there were muggles nearby but they were to busy eating lunch and in the opposite direction

Travelling around Australia today we explored a few more spots around Kyneton before moving to Woodend. We did the sums to locate this cache on our arrival but given it's location we decided to leave it as a convenient smilie for our moving day.

We are loving our visit to Victoria with soooo much history we are being shown.

Now in Woodend for the next fortnight surely we will be having a bal in this area.

Quick find on the way out to dinner. The kids still aren't too fond of the water from these springs, but I think they will like it next time.

Nice quick, easy find. Thanks.

Nice multi!

A lovely afternoon of caching with teamlauren and emthe gem. TFTC

Found with templetonteam and teamlauren. A nice quick easy find. Thanks for the cache.

Quick, easy find. Easy read of the sign and collection of clues. Then walked to gz and spotted where we thought it would be. Soon had cache in hand with emthegem and Templetonteam.

Beautiful but frozen morning in Kyneton. Ice on the ground everywhere, had to warm the pen to log the cache! Heaps of swaps, took nothing. TFTC!

I don't know how many times I have been past here - especially before the bypass was built, and I have only stopped here a couple of times. Today was a day to stop here as I was helping with a family car shuffle to get Dad down to Melbourne. 9For interest, I gave my sister lift and met Dad who drove down from Charlton and then my sister drove Dad in his car back to Melbourne leaving me to do some caching!) Anyway, after seeing Dad and sister off after having lunch in Kyneton, I started this multi. Had the information in hand a sensible looking GZ worked out. After the short walk I found the cache quickly - and it is definitely an exposed position - thankfully the place was almost deserted today! Thanks to Keeper of Time for this one.

Sorry for delay in posting - have been out of service area for a few days.
Having spent the day with my sister from Guildford, babysitting her grandchildren in Kyneton, we were lucky that this turned out to be quite an easy find as we were both pretty weary. A few muggles around as we approached, but by the time we had gathered the information and prepared to approach GZ they had all packed up and left.
This cache is in a lovely spot that hubby and I had often spoken of as a possible camp if we were ever touring this direction though I doubt we would ever use it as there are so many relatives close by with spacious blocks.
We had never actually stopped here so never knew how good these waters are. Sis actually emptied her water bottles so she could refill them from the spring.

Out geocaching on Easter Sunday through the beautiful Macedon Ranges with my 4 & 8 year old. Found easily, TFTC. Great drive!!

found it.

Nice little place to stop.........

On our way through town today and managed a quick stop and cache to help break up our trip. Thanks Keeper of Time for the cache and for showing us this nice little area.

Found it! Was particularly difficult to be as quick as we had hoped, waiting around for folk to leave...waiting...waiting...

Needed to stop for fuel, so came into town, did this quick multi on the way out again and collected some water. Thanks Keeper of Time.

As I've discovered with all the caches of yours that I have found, a well executed multi and great hide. Took a TB. Tftc

Find number two for the day. My parents visited this spot many years ago and commented that the mineral water wasn't very nice compared to the stuff in Daylesford, so I hadn't bothered to stop here and try it. The cache lured me to the location today and I was pleasantly surprised to find the mineral water was pretty good, almost comparable to the Daylesford water. Maybe it's changed since my parents were here.
After the necessary calculations I proceeded to GZ, I thought the cache had been muggled initially as the cache wasn't in the obvious spot, however I persevered with my search and the well hidden cache was extracted. Took one of the TB's and left a puzzle. TFTC Keeper of Time.

Fun to find. Kids enjoyed a play

A lovely spot on a gorgeous August day. Dropped "Freiheits-Wal" and "In Loving Memory"
TFTC

A nice easy find, although a few muggles about, picked up TB FEBKAZ " lucky bug", and will take it for a ride. sL, left small rubber ball. TFTC.

Our first find for the day and a great start to our geocaching journey.

Nice easy multi at a fun place for the geokids to play. Dropped off TB. TFTC

Had some spare time today. I live around the area. By son got me into it. Easy find. Thanks

Found @ 14:35. Decided to brave the chilly weather and do some exploring around the area. Got the required info and then off to find the cache which was soon located and then to pump some spring water. Thanks for hi lighting this area.

The first of hopefully many in our run to Cape York and back.
A lovely place to camp overnight, and thank you Kyneton for providing such great facilities for those of us on the road.

Another well kept area, with some interesting history associated. Thanks for bringing us here, why is it always such a surprise to find a spring? Thanks for the cache, all was in good order.

A quick toilet stop and cache find on way home from visiting rels in Werribee, with DoorMatt and my dad. Nice little hide and dad's second ever find! Tftc

Found with Eminor93 and her dad on a quick stop on the way back home. It was nearly dark when we arrived so we completed the cache without being seen. TFTC.

This was a nice quick multi for Sully1 and I while in the area for the w/e.
Thanks KoT, nice to see another of your quality and well informed caches.

Found with Bogonghazy whilst on a Long weekend assault of Castlemaine and surrounds. By the time we got to GZ it was 5.40pm and dark was closing in fast. My thanks to Keeper to Time for bringing us here today and for this beaut Multi,

Since I have declared March to be Multi month, Bexta and I headed up the Calder to pick up some multis. This was one of them. Some massive group or other was having a BBQ in this park when we arrived, so we felt a little conspicuous, but we were able to collect the clues fairly easily. We strolled over to GZ and despite my GPS pointing miles away, there was only one or two places the cache could be and Bexta found it with ease. We picked this cache up at 3:56pm.

Thanks for the cache Keeper of Time.

On a caching adventure with LouiseAnn. After checking out the local attractions and we soon had the information required to grab the cache. There was a large crowd of muggles enjoying a BBQ lunch nearby, they didn't even notice us. It was surprising how busy this location was on a Sunday. TFTC

Thanks for the cache. Nice little spot to visit. Hid the cache ready for the next search.

ROFL watching South Gippy Hubby taste spring water - that wont happen twice. TFTC

I found this one without the clues, I was walking and saw it. Maybe needs a better hide?

Visiting relatives in the area and was planning to do a few caches as a clan. In the end the junior clan member was away on camp but the older relatives really wanted to come out. We started here and solved the clues quickly. Tftc

Used to come here often, never thought to check for cache... Awesome spot, any visitors should check out both locations.

Enjoying the caches if kyneton TFTC

Arrived at area to figure out the coordinates and somehow forgot that we were doing a multi. A couple of muggles nearby so I had my camera ready and proceeded to take random photos. Good thing about digital cameras these days. Then remembered it was a multi so quickly worked out the coordinates and moved on to find the cache. Thanks for the fun. Geokids didn't like the taste of the water nearby either. Lol.

In Bendigo for a caching weekend with Julz76 and 2 geokids. This one was found on the trip home.

Arrived at GZ and started stealthily searching as there were muggles nearby, til Julz remembered it was multi. Doh! So she retrieved the notes from the car and we soon had it solved. A very short walk and we had the cache in hand.
Thanks

My 3rd hunt and second find, I love this game!

Good hide and clues. TFTC.

Found at 11:49:00 AM while travelling from Bendigo to Melbourne. Nice quick multi with refreshment supplied.

Thanks Keeper of Time

Good little find well hidden. The Scouts love this stuff. TFTC.

Nice park. Great hiding spot

Thanks for the Cache. Nice park and a good hiding spot.

Upon reading the description I was scratching my head thinking what!! Arriving at WP1 it all makes sense. Nice area to stretch the legs. The water is not the best tasting lol. Cache found safe and dry in its hidey hole TNLN Thanks for the multi.

On a geocaching run in the area with Jimmymaff. TNLN TFTC
