Hanging at Scotty's Ripley, Queensland, Australia
By saintsmadhouse on 26-Feb-12. Waypoint GC3DAEJ

We have sadly decided to archive this one. Due, in part,to the frequency in its disappearances and also to free up the area to anyone wishing to make a power trail of the area into the new developments up the road. Farewell Scotty's We loved you.

THERE IS NO CACHE HERE ANYMORE.

We will try to get this one active again within the next fortnight.

The gardeners have been again and it has been taken away. I shall pop out soon and organise a new one

There has been some pretty major trimming done on the gardens at the park. It may be missing? Have sent a message to the owner

Replaced and all good to be found again, Sorry for the delays.

all fixed

We shall replace it

Had a good look in the recommended spot, but found nothing. The blossoms were out, and provided a very pleasant aroma though.

CO, you might want to check this one out ad it appears to have been mugged. I live nearby and have already found this cache. I will often will take a glance to check it when I'm at the park with the tin lids. It wasn't in its usual spot, so we had a good look for it, but came up empty.

Out in the rain with nuttzo. Woohoo! This is my 60th cache

A quick park and grab after work. Liked the container, first I've seen. TFTC.

Geat hide. Tftc.

Found it just in time before a downpour of rain. Tftc

#4 for Team Haines, Bubby and Mummy Haines waited in the car while Daddy Haines found this one. Nifty container! TFTC.

Down in the area just for a day's outing.
This was our first port of call and I trotted in and found the cache.
We ended up coming back to this little park with our lunch later on in the day.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks SaintsMadHouse All good with this cache

We found your cache Hanging at Scotty's on 2/06/2015 10:04 am. This is our find #4428 and find #1 today.
found on our way to Brisbane from our home of Ballarat VIC
The cache is in good shape.
Thanks SaintsMadHouse for the cache!

Easy park and grab

First attempt with Richmond Lad was shelved as muggles in park so off we went to do some others. But on our way back the coast was clear and BINGO the cache was found. Thanks SMH.

Came to the cache and there were people in the small park. Decided to go off and do some other caches. Came back and there was no one there. Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!! Took only a short time to locate cache and place it back where found. TFTC

Found this one while in the park having lunch.
TFTC

Today we explored Ipswich and surrounds using geocaching as a guide.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Log to follow

Nice quick find today with the family. Love the park here. Tftc

A quick find with geojaeger after jazzy gym tonight tftc

Actually stumbled across this one when I was a basic member on 25th Jan 2015. Couldn't log it until today. Signed the log back then. Cache wasn't so much hanging, as nesting...

TFTC very quick find note to self dont take ant ridden logs into the car to sign

tftc..

Was a bit nervous when I pulled up and saw the playground, but thankfully there was no one about and the cache was far enough away from the houses not to cause any issues. After a bit of thought I soon spotted the tricky hide. Tftc

cache find #1934. We used the geo tug as part of our cover to find the cache with stealth. Found it quickly. Replaced as found. TFTC.

A great little cache. Was on the ground when I found it. I will allow it to HANG with Scott again. Also left some dream works cards.

Quick find for S & I on our way to get B. TFTC TSLS

Found it!!

Quick easy find on our way home On a beautiful sunday afternoon. TNLN TFTC.

Quick find by geoson. Great camo.

Thanks for the cache saintsmadhouse.

It took a little while to find this one , but once found the log was signed and returned. Off to find some more for the day. TFTC

Managed to pick a quiet time today with not a soul in sight which is just as well as I scrabbled about looking for this one. Ducked in and out of GZ trying to search and keep an eye out for muggles. Ahhh! there you are! Took it back to the car to sign log etc. Thanks for the path tag, it's beauty. Waited while a power walker disappeared and snuck it back into it's nook. Thanks saintsmadhouse

Dropped by to check in this one after a day in Ippy. I wish I could log a find on my own coz it took me 5 minutes to see it. Left a pathtag of ours for the next finder

# 6150 Found on our 2013 winter escape trip to Qld.
We are in Ipswich for a few days to have a good look around.
No muggles around here today and another quick find logged and off again.
Another day of the 31 day challenge completed as well.
Thanks for the cache saintsmadhouse,
Roostaman.

Our August 5th find for caching month. The playground is fenced off for work so the area was muggle free.

Nice easy find for the August streak. Tftc.

TFTF a great little spot

NJB17 found this one. Good Cache. Thanks.

Clever hide. Like the case will have to hide one of those myself.

Great spot, tftc

Dog bark but stop
It was an amazing cache
Well done
MinecraftAvengers

The dogs next door would not give up barking. Hope I did get any poor dog in trouble. Nice container. TFTC

Another grab on the way out to willowbank. Quiet day on Easter long weekend. TFTC.

As a much younger lady I remember visiting/hanging at friends places here and also at Scott's farm. This area has grown a lot since those days. SL TFTC

Great hide... Nice find...TFTC!

After having to change my bike ride plans due to the rainy weather. Decided to do some park an grabs. This cache eluded me for longer than it should of. Nice hide. Cache in good condition.

Nice easy find. Took travel bug. TFTC.

Cache has been replaced with a new watertight container and new logbook.

The cache has been replaced with a waterproof one, the log is also new. Happy Hunting!

Parked right next to the cache. Noted the clue. Found the container. Log was sodden so, put out into the sun for a few minutes whilst dried out the ziplock bag. Tucked it back into the container and back to its little hidey place. TFTC

After a climb up a nearby hill I still had enough energy left to sit in the shade of the gazebo at the entry to the park and reach over to grab me a cache
A very creative design [^]
Alas it is not water resistant and the logbook is soaked again [:o]
TFTC

Somehow missed logging this one when I found it awhile back - found in good nick, log signed, TFTC

With a day off it was time to round up a few caches a little further from home than usual. This helps cover off this little pocket

This was a nice easy find and the third for the day. I love the container, it's amazing what you can turn into a Caching container. TFTC.

Conducted maintenance on this cache today. Yes the log book was wet and has been rectified. Fingers crossed cachers take care in placing this one back ensuring the ziplock bag is completely sealed.

Relogging this under individual account, previously a member of Gaz'n'Kab account.

I arrived to a deserted park and made a quick grab. While signing the log a young bmx muggle passed through the park. After he had left I quickly replaced the cache. Log it a little dap but still usuable. TFTC

Previously logged under a team account. Re-logging with my individual account.

We returned to today after being defeated last time and within seconds of arriving Kab had the cache spotted and retrieved the log is a little damp and will need to either be dried out or replaced soon.

Gaz'n'Kab

got this one on a drive by. TFTC

We awoke this morning with no idea where we were headed - at around 11.30 we decided to head to Augustine Heights - our in-car navigator Karen, decided to take us the long way and we ended up here.

We parked the car near the entranceway of the park and geokid5 jumped out and immediately spotted the cache which was hanging in full view. What a clever use of the container! Such a good idea! We loved it.

After signing the log we replaced - just tucking it behind a little more camo

TFTC saintmadhouse - now down the road for a bookswap

An interesting little park.

A bit damp under foot today after recent rains.

Luckily I had the area to myself and a short search revealed the cache.

Thanks SMH.

Today it was Friday the 13th and why not spend it having good luck and finding caches with Captain Terror and Whint and Bad Dal. We all had a few caches left so we took turns finding the ones we had left. Found this one before too long. Thanks for the cache

Out caching for the day with Net88 & Captain Terror.... having tried this one before I knew exactly where we needed to go.... the cache was soon found this time, signed and returned

tftc

Third time lucky today. Was with Whint and Net88 cleaning up he map of the area and we soon stopped by this one for a look. Surely the cache was there this time and after a short hunt had it in hand and soon thereafter, signed. Replaced as found and glad to tick this one off the list. TFTC saintsmadhouse.

A wet day out caching with IolantheK and teamdfl.
I let the girls go first while I stood under the shelter out of the rain.
They could not find it so I went in for a look....a quick find.
Thanks for the cache, all dry inside.

Out playing in the rain with Brother Colin and Iolanthe K. This was our first stop of the day. Heather and I failed to find it so BC stepped in and got it straight away

Out and about with Brother Colin and teamdfl, on a very rainy day.

dfl and I had a look at GZ, but didn't spot it, then BC had another look, and got it straightaway. A most ingenious container! Got a few of these at my place TFTC, saintsmadhouse, and a good start to our day.

this was my first find..... did it at nite and was hard with all the dogs braking at us but once we sat and worked out some clues, we found it easy.... TFTC

Thanks for your patience. This cache is now replaced due to being muggled. We have shrunk the size of the original container for stealth reasons. Good luck and happy hunting.

We are soming armed with a replacement this weekend in cache it had dissappeared. This cache will be ready for use from Monday 28th May 2012

I told a muggle friend about geocaching and about the cache (he lives in Clarke Street) and I went out towards that way today. He previous had a look around the area for several hours and left empty handed and it was the same case today. I reckon it has been ninja'd.

Due to the recents DNFS logged we will Temporarily disable this one until we can get over to check it out.

Out with Whint today in the area and we were soon in this lovely little park chasing this cache. After much hunting around the obvious feature for a long time.. most of which was me sitting in the darn tree, we had no cache. A PAF was made and more hunting ensued for what should have been an easy find. I instead found a weeny green tree frog, so we took some photos and I placed him back among the Buckinghamia leaves from whence he came. No luck with the cache and I would have posted a NM, but cache owner all over it already. Hopefully next time.

Out and about with Captain Terror and D-man grabbing some of the newer caches in the area... this one was on our radar so made our way out... parked and made our way over to GZ.... with the clue we had a fair idea where to look and what we might be looking for... we looked and looked and looked some more... started to read logs etc to get an idea and expanded our search area... kept looking but not finding anything.... finally decided to PAF and it was confirmed we were looking in the right place and we were looking for the right thing.... so we continued our search... the Captain found the cutest little green tree frog having a sleep... checked him our and took some photos Back to the search.... nope, nothing.... decided to call it a day and log as a DNF

thanks anyway

This is more of a case of a DNS- Did not start.
We arrived and the play area was teaming with junior muggles.
As soon as we pulled up we swear all eyes were on us.
With that in mind we decided best leave this one for another day.

Buggered if I know were it is, geohusband and I searched high and low for this one and didn't find a damn thing, perhaps it's really camo or perhaps it's not there!

Log book is completely soaked so replacement is needed.

Found with Stairman1. Geodog waited in the car while we grabbed this one . No one around so this was a quick grab. The log was completely soaked so we signed it the best we could.

Thanks saintmadhouse.

Replaced the log and wrote everyones entries in the new one, thanks for letting us know. Its all good now, Happy Searching!

Found with goldielover this morning. Great little hide. Nice park.
TFTC

Another cache that Lokipagan and I had to abort on due to muggles. Again - the rain kept the muggles at bay thankfully.

I went into the area and found the well-hidden cache easily enough. I had a heck of a time trying to open the cache - but I got there in the end. Unfortuantely - and it bamboozles me how - the log was wet. In keeping with the rules of the game I signed the wet notebook.

The container seemed to be sealed up well - so is a mystrey to me how it got wet. A nicely designed container too. A lovely little park to visit. TFTC saintsmadhouse

Friday afternoon and a little time to kill before picking up Silver Sovereign. HEY, look... Five caches within cooey of the Uni, now that is handy...

Naturally, I was drawn to the icons and after a short drive, found myself near this one. I parked within m of GZ and jumped out to find the park deserted. Perfect I thought... [^]

The GPS lead me straight to the right spot and after ruling out a couple of other hide options, I found the neat container tucked away nicely... A quick extraction and I was off to the nearby banch for business. You never know who will sneak around the corner while your sorting out the logging part...

All done, it was a quick replacement and I was on my way.. OK what's next... [?] Oh, another one from the same owner...

Cheers saintsmadhouse.

Loki and I got out of the car and realised there was muggles about. We did not wish to put the cache in danger so we moved along. TFTH.

very well camofagued, well done placing this cache

Nice hide, but quickly found using the hint. TFTC saints

F.T.F F.T.F. F.T.F F.T.F F.T.F F.T.F.

Didn't realise this was released until an hour after the event , but thought I'd see if there was a blank page anyway.

There was a vehicle parked at the entrance - not a good sign, then when I got out of the car I noticed that there was a man sitting under the shelter at the entrance and he had a can of fly spray in the side of his backpack - a sure sign of a cacher - which it was

After introductions it was revealed that he hadn't found the cache , and so the hunt began - we searched everywhere, as my Oregon was indicating an area where there was obviously no cache.f

We widened the search and I looked in a particular spot, but thought that geopoppy would be better, so asked him to look, and low and behold it was there.

Another F.T.F. for the old hag

thanks again saintsmadhouse - and thankyou for the F.T.F. prize

Was about to see what cache I could find in my lunch break and this one popped up. My brain went into a slight stutter thinking about FTF FTF FTF - but after realising I had everything I needed I headed off.

Searched and searched and sweated and searched. And did not find. I must have been there about an hour - I really really wanted an FTF.

Finally - I gave up and would have posted a DNF except my phone couldn't pick up an internet connection. I was walking out of the park when I noticed a 4WD pulling up. Noticing that the occupants didn't have kids with them either it was an easy assumption that they were cachers.

I decided to stick around and watch 'an old hag' and accomplice do their magic. And found it they did.

While I wasn't FTF - I did manage to see what a FTF prize looked like.

TNSL Thanks saintsmadhouse.
