I have replace this cache a couple of times now, so decided to let it go and free up the place for someone else
This cache container has been sitting in a pool of water and then the mud as it dried up. The container and contents need to be cleaned and a new log book placed into it.
We enjoyed our walk to this cache only to find that it was not going anywhere, we had trouble getting it to let go of it's hide. SL TFTC
Nice hide- had me going around and thought I must have used it! Bit damp though! TFTC!

Was in the middle of the ground lying open. I hope we hid it back in the right spot.

Found it! Pretty good hiding spot, almost fooled me and my brother and boyfriend. Great little adventure!
Yes, I'm pretty sure I found the previous cache around this area, way back. Today, the kiddies were all up and away, hopefully learning good things. The cache is in good nick, and while the log is a little damp, I think it will survive a while yet so TFTC.
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 2:25pm. Parked in the area and walked to GZ. We found the cache after searching for a minute or two. TFTC
At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be taken, as it will make the challenge so much easier.
After a three and a half week roadtrip from Margaret River to Brisbane it's time to find some work again.
This one was a quick and easy find.
TFTC and greetings from Germany

Found it. I looked for half an hour, when I found it I realized how easy it was. Hint: very close to a tree u might need to dig with ur feet
Fond this today. Contents very wet with about a cm of water in container. I emptied it out but still very wet
Looks like I will have to make a new container for this cache as it was replaced not that long ago -- please don't log any maintenance requests, as I am on to it, but it might take a couple of weeks before I can get back out that way
Let you know that it s pretty wet paper and i didnt have spare log paper to put in. Easy finding it. TFTC
Today we explored Ipswich and surrounds with Roostaman using geocaching as a guide. Top hide, eaasy find.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found in short time. Kids did well. Had no papers on me to replace old ones. Water has got in and damaged papers inside. Thanks for cache.
Log is very wet. Needs replacing. Someone has put another bag and paper in, so I signed that.
Found this a few months ago but forgot to log. Was out flying with mstrcam in this park and decided to grab a quick cache. Love the area and enjoyed the walk down the path tftc!
cache find #2222. In the area today to locate some caches, and this one was on our list. Found easily. The bag was full of water and log sheets were very slimy. we added our own signed notepaper, and placed that in a plastic bag. TFTC.

A quick find with my muggle friend after having an afternoon of shopping Sunday was a great day to get this one there wasn't a soul in sight
I had a super long week-end in Toowoomba from Friday until Tuesday.
and I am now making my way home via a couple of caches.
I parked the car and walked across the vacant paddock before the school kids got let out for the day.
A quick find here.
Thanks for the cache.

Logbook replaced -- thanks to the cacher who put a log in the cache until I could get to replacing the wet one -- please use this temporary one before starting on the write-in-the-rain paper one that I just put in the cache
Years ago I had found the original cache that was hidden near hear. Reading the details of this one I figured I should do add this find in memory of the old one. As my GeoSon had soccer practice tonight nearby it was an great walk to the GZ. I was greeted by a very friendly and beautiful green tree frog who I think was hopping around looking for a feed. He hopped off and a quick search located the cache. Great hide, thanks very much for letting me re visit this little pocket, how much it has changed.
Found a "sharpes" stash nearby. It has been there for a while, the plastic bag had perished revealing the contents. Not unexpected in this day and age. Eventually found the little sports fan who was quite oblivious to the neighbour.
FastEd dropped us off at Geebung train at 6.15
IolantheK picked us up at Chelmer at 8.00
then off to Springfield we go
on an archive hunt and IolantheK recognises this spot as we pull up
find the new cache on the GPS and read description
very nice tribute
found easy as not covered very well
like the guardian
signed the log left by a previous finder as contents and original log are very wet and gross

So, after many moons of self-restraint and little caching, I treated myself to an outing today. Clearing the rest of this area has been on my radar for a while. Probably should have left the white Nikes at home though
I was seriously distracted on the walk to GZ as a man was trying to get a large colourful parachute wing into the air. Interesting thing to do in a suburban park. He tried and tried but every time he got it up it collapsed back on to the grass.
I found a couch potato at GZ and he told me he was definitely not interested in sport Nice clean, dry log on top of the original very wet log. Otherwise, Mr Unsporty is fine. On the way back to the carpark, I noticed the wannabe pilot was still earthbound. He was looking a bit jaded.
On we rolled, on the road home...

This one has been on my list to do for a while. Parked the car and headed off for a walk. Coordinates took me straight to the cache. Signed the new dry log. Cool cache!
Out with IolantheK today for a few caches in the area before I started work this afternoon. When we parked the car, there were a couple of guys playing with their model planes doing loop de loops. They paid no heed to us as we walked on by.
At GZ spotted the cache quickly but on picking up, the lid was off and water logged. Back to the car and maintenance done: new log sheet, new baggy, dried out the box and put the old log book into another baggy. Its now back in position ready and waiting for the next finder. TFFC Old Hag

Out and about with Nurseyjulie for a couple of hours today
Nurseyjulie navigated around to a great parking spot with a short walk to the cache, but we had to dodge two fellows flying their remote controls planes They looked like they were having a grand time, doing acrobatics and all [^] At GZ Nurseyjulie dived straight on the cache, only to discover that the lid was off and it was full of water The logbook is absolutely drowned
We took it all back to the car to fix up, and have put in a new log and baggie. The old one was (literally) squeezed to remove as much water as possible and we put it in a fresh baggie back in the container. Then we returned the container to its hidey-hole. I suggest the CO drops in and checks on this one. TFTC, an old hag.

Looked at the gz for sometime but couldnt find the prize. Thinking the cache mite have been mowed over, due to the fresh cut grass... Suggest the owner go and have a look
Very wet inside need new book this one is wet and smelly and we didn't place anything inside
Found this cache whilst out for the day with Whint & Bad Dal. We were down a muskteteer but had a great time without him anyway It was quite a warm day, even for December and we were probably a little foolish to be attempting caches in these hotter suburbs, but a bit of sun never killed anyone... right?
Whint and I found a parking spot for this cache, Whint was sure she had been here before for a different cache but we couldn't think of anything. As we got closer to GZ we read the description and it all made sense. We found the cache quickly as she had found the last one and we were soon extracting the container. The container was unfortunately wet though and we were not able to sign the log. I remember Whint taking a photo for proof of the find before replacing the container and heading back to the car.

I didn't realise this was one of a series of tribute caches but parking at GZ I knew I had been here before. We made our way to GZ and the cache was quickly in hand... not the style of micro I was used to from an old hag... much easier to find Unfortunately there is a lot of water in the cache... was emptied out as best as we could but the logbook was not signable. I have taken a photo of the cache if the CO would like proof of our find today.... cache needs a little bit of a CO TLC

TFTC. Very quiet day, might be the heat. Cache in good condition however log felt damp, can't understand why, as it hasn't rained in ages.
For Sporty not this is the wrong place to be. Caz17 and I enjoyed the walk with no sports today.
Drove as close to GZ as I could. There was a muggle in the playing fields, but he was busy with his remote controlled plane.
GZ was well out of his sight, and I could not see another soul in the park
A very quick hunt at GZ and the log was signed

Day out to watch the mooseling at his soccer finals. Easy enough find at half time between the games. All good with this cache. tftc an old hag
Easy find, container a little exposed, perhaps due to windy day. Covered cache after signing log.
grabbed this one while out and about tonight, nice quick find in a lovely place TFTC
all safe and dry here

We head out late this afternoon, and decided to give this one a go. We parked at the library, and enjoyed the walk to the cache, and soon arrived at GZ. We had a quick look, and spotted the cache quickly A quick find, and we were heading back home again
