TARDIS Trail - No.5 The Library Birnam, Queensland, Australia
By 4tardis on 20-Apr-14. Waypoint GC530KH

Area no longer viable

Logging a DNF.

Will be back for another look.

No luck for me here.

The day after attending the Rural Safari in Crows Nest, decided to do some caches before heading home to Brisbane.
Very well hidden as a few of us scratched around it without noticing it was there. TFTC

Returning from the Rural Challenge in Crows Nest this weekend and collecting a few caches around the Highfield area.
We certainly searched this place well until some parts of GZ were checked again and there it was! Thanks 4tardis.

Had other look for couple of months! Came back from Scooby dam to toowoomba to get that dress smiles! Got signed and return same place TFTC

Nice little find. Tftc

9 Km from home.
Our second attempt at this cache albeit a few years apart, out and about to unwind after some heavy landscaping around our GZ. Our new geo-buggy needed its first refuel =, we headed for Gowrie Junction and picked this one up along the way
We took nothing but memories; we left nothing but footprints and our tag.
The hide, log and container are all in good nick.
Thanks for the cache 4tardis
Cheers

**Smilie #5208**

We decided today would be a great day for another trip to Toowoomba & surrounding areas.
So many caches out here still need converting to smilies! LOL ...

A nice quick find here in thongs among the thistles!
Made our mark & replaced as found.

**TFTC 4tardis **

Pulled over & saw cleared land, but luckily the arrow pointed beyond. We followed the arrow to gz to make a quick find. Tftc 4tardis xo

A quick easy find today along with the others in this trail. Signed log, all good. TFTC

Finally cleared out the last Tardis to be found and filled in another day of the calendar. Picked the kids up from school with an afternoon tea bribe and headed on out. Quick find. TFTC 4tardis.

Another cache run with Dutchie1950. Good weather and company. TFTC

We came up today for an event with the aim of grabbing a few caches. This was our third find of the day and yes we did spot a Tardis! (See photo). Replaced the log as it was wet.

Log signed & replaced again. Found at 10.35am on 15th October, 2016. TFTC

Out and about collecting some caches on our way out to Highfields. Thanks 4tardis

Found with the help of my geodog Scruffy,

All Good .. TFTC ..

Enjoying grabbing a few caches as we make our way along this road. Not too much traffic along here today which made it easier for us.
Wasn't too hard to find. All good here.
Thanks for placing these caches and adding to our fun today.

We had been keeping our eyes out for a potential sighting of the TARDIS along the way, and it was enroute to this cache I spotted the TARDIS, however, we had to turn around because Mrs LHE Duo only spotted the doctor. I guess today the TARDIS chameleon circuit must have been working today.

Anyway back to the cache and this one was soon in hand once we arrived here, and was quickly signed and replaced before continuing along.

TFTC

Out with OrionJ and we were both keeping an eye out for the Tardis. However, I totally missed it as I was washing the Doctor at the gate. OrionJ found a spot to turn around to take me back to see it. This made my day. We proceeded on to GZ and soon made the find and added our names to the log. I will add a favourite here which is for the group of caches but this one being closest to the Tardis gets the favourite. TFTC 4tardis

We were in Toowoomba to tick off some caches and had done some here before ,great location TFTC

Back in Toowoomba visiting my awesome geo-partner KaleidoscopeCass.. but unfortunately she has to work. Fortunately that means that I am able to get out and explore. Sitting in the car nearby i checked the gps and this cache came up on the radar. After a quick search. Cache was in hand and log signed. Thanks for the cache!

**# 14093** Found on our 2016 winter escape trek.
Another warm sunny morning for another drive around a few of the Tardis trail.
A good find and not many muggles around today.
Thanks for the cache 4tardis,
***Roostaman***

Found thanks...the log is getting wet

I'm in Toowoomba for a few days of camping and caching by myself

Day 3, and Nurseyjulie has arrived from Brisbane [^] Time for a bit of a drive around the TARDIS Trail. The cows over the road completely ignored us, and we made a quick find. TFTC, 4tardis.

A meet up with IolantheK today and collecting a few caches in the Toowoomba area. We were parked over the road from the GZ and mooed at the cows who watched us intently but carried on munching on the grass. A quick find here too. TFTC 4tardis

TFTC You've Been Bear'd

The grass along this trail needs some attention, a little uncomfortable with going into it. SL TFTC

After a big morning out around town on the geocycle I had retired to the geomobile for a few finds this afternoon.

I was very happy to see the Doctor and his T.A.R.D.I.S. on my travels. I also saw a buggy being drawn by two beautiful horses.

Made it worth while indeed.

Australia Day Caching!
The Wards:)

Number 8 cache of the day with Wombles. We were very thankful that this one didn't have all that much long grass and we found the cache easily

tftc

We were glad to see less grass at this stop!
A nice quick find and we were off to the next one, looking out for the doctor and the tardis along the way.

A little overgrown but found in a couple of minutes.

I have been wanting to do this trail ever since we started this crazy hobby a few months ago. thanks

Found Ok

Nice spot, thought at first the long grass would keep us out. But found a way

Had to do a double take when we saw the camels... TFTC

Now don't get the Doctor started on libraries. His Grand Life Plan was to immerse himself therein, he did the training (well, most of it), but then it all flittered away after a few years as the career took a U-turn. Now he's retired he's not even allowed to shelve books as a volunteer. The find though went according to plan.

One of 2 caches on a day that started out as cold, damp and foggy,Finaly by lunch time the sun made an apperience and the cloud was gone
Thanks for the cache 4tardis

The 5th in the series.. the geokids did this one and it was a nice quick find for them. Thank you for the cache.

Visiting from Newcastle, on the way to Brisbane after the Mega at Stanthorpe, TFTC 4tardis!!

Enjoying this part of the country and collecting caches along the way with tmann421. Thanks to all the COs for making this such a memorable trip.

TFTC

Another good find with Just-Lookin, while slowly heading to Brisbane (the long way) after the MEGA.

Quick find for us here today. SL TFTC

Finding a great combination of traditional and puzzle caches kept up well occupied in this attractive town. Nice one Thanks to 4tardis.

I think I was lucky to find this one. The grass between the road and GZ is waist high. There was not many places to check and I had to dig a bit through the grass and mulch before the cache came to hand. Not the best cache for this type of location but somehow the log has remained dry.

TFTC.

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there 4tardis. We found your cache "TARDIS Trail - No.5 The Library" at 10:10:00 AM today.
This was our 5th cache find in a caching run of 15 Finds & 0 DNFs today. (So this now makes our find count 9516.)
[Blue]
Today's cache run was to add to our current streak of "Most Consecutive Days" cached. With this cache the total now stands at 227 Days.

Another day traipsing around the countryside, dodging roadworks and listening to the GPS telling us to take roads that don't exist. Maybe it's time to update the maps in the trusty Garmin.

Please excuse our boilerplate logs. It's not really a good excuse, but it is often really difficult to craft individual logs when we attempt so many similar caches in a day.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent. (We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

I have not been caching in a serious sense since early May. Back in the saddle yesterday and it was after 1600 when I arrived in Toowoomba so drove home via a few on the New England Highway.

Back today and started with the Cooby Dam lot that are available. Now having completed those ten I will try and get as many of these as I can. I found #8 yesterday on my way home. Could not stop for numbers 4 and 7 due to the continuing roadworks. Arrived at GZ and looked in the most likely spot and had a quick find. Signed log YOF as this is what I use on Nano and Micro logs to safe space. TFTC 4tardis.

Today we were able to tick another of the Tardis Trail off our to do list, we now have three to go. Inbetween the road work we were able to find a safe spot to stop so that we could search for this Cache. We found the Cache in the likely spot, where we signed the log book before returning it.

Cheers 4tardis

Today we did a full day of caching in Toowoomba region. From the town region & out to Cooby Dam.
All the caches we found were in good condition & some wonderfull & scenic locations.
We enjoyed our run doing the the Tardis Trail. Saw the Tardis close to close to number 4.
We were not able to do Tardis 4 & 7 because of the road works.
Thanks for placing this cache 4tardis

A quick little caching run whilst camping for the weekend at Crows Nest. TFTC

Out to grab a few caches whilst camping at nearby Crow's Nest National Park. Thanks 4tardis.

All set for a super long week-end in Toowoomba from Friday until Tuesday.
I am in town to find all of the new caches in the area since I left town year ago.
I pulled off the road near GZ where there is plenty of room to park and soon found the cache tucked away.
I do not know if the container has changed but it is now a micro.
Thanks for the cache.

Found with the geoboy while the girl is at dance! Tftc

Found this one after a cold and windy game of soccer in Highfields. Made a quick find. TFTC

Sneeky fellow this one. Just wondering how long it will last in this possie?
Decided the day had come to meet the Dr. So geodog "Coco" and I set off for lands to be discovered. Found a couple doing the caches on my road so "a Giddy" to them and then on my way. Had a lovely time. SL TNLN TFTC.

8 Km from home.
With Mrs R-F away and me almost out of groceries it was off to town to some shopping and what better way to do that but cache my way into town.
Another blank, searched all what I thought were the likely places but to no avail. Once Mrs R-F returns I will bring another set of eyes with me.
