Logs
Dnf, but did locate several log lists with signatures on the ground in the vicinity. Can electroman please verify cache is still there?
The plants/bush in this area have become less dense, so replacing the cache here will probably see it being muggled again.
The land here is due for redevelopment soon, also.

[:d] I had given up finding it, sitting in the car ready to go, when 6 year old grandson walks up with the cache in his little hand, 'what's this poppa?' What a beauty, thanks!!!

been to world environment day at the uni and decided to grab this one on the way home. easy find. gracias electro man.

Thankyou! First geocache ever, didn't know what to expect but found it after ten minutes or so!
Every time we drive past here, it is at school drop off or pick up time and cars are lurking around
Today it was neither drop off or pick up time when we were coming through and we managed to find it without any bother
Thanks electro_man, all good with this cache

Found with Mum & Dad (jasenjanine) while on holiday here after the QLD Mega .. TFTC
Day 11 of our Qld holiday & we decided that we would find a few solved puzzles in the area… Plus a few others along the way
This was another quick find of a very clever cache… It was DangerMouse09 to make the discovery here

May want to keep an eye on this cache as I believe Youi is soon to start construction on their new head office in this general area

Able to drive almost to GZ.
Began our search & walked past it twice, looking in other places, before spotting it's hiding place.
Nevertheless, another quick find. The afternoon is rolling along nicely thank you very much! LOL ...
Log signed & cache replaced as found.

A favourite point for a cache that almost makes the IPS class!

I checked on the cache today and found that some of the surrounding plants have died, leaving the cache naked and in plain view.
The cache needs a repaint and I will relocate it by 31/01/15.

After a quick search noticed the cache sitting on the ground place it back in its home signed log on my way forward
I was working today and had to visit the nearby Medical Centre and had a few minutes up my sleeve so I decided that I should take the opportunity to grab this cache.
Normally when I come past this area is busy or has a car parked nearby but today the area was apocalypticly dead. So I thought, 'Today is the day' and pulled up close to GZ. And, before I had even got out of the car I could see what I was looking for.
As it was a stinker of a day I jumped out of the car and grabbed the log and returned to the cool air conditioning to look over it and do the deed. After doing so, the log was returned and the cache sealed back up as found for the next lucky cacher.
Thanks for another cache electro_man. All is in good order with your cache.

Arriving at GZ I searched a few likely spots, then saw something and decided to have a look.
Well that's different! Thanks electro_man

Looking for a cache to fill my yearly calendar days and this one was on my list for a Sunday because of parking usually hard around here. Well that really wasn't a problem once I had parked walked to and located the cache, I could have parked closer [?]. Ah Well that happens sometimes !

Hah! And we thought we had it when we saw a little round disc attached to the pavement! Can you believe it had an 'E' on it - for electro man of course!
After we realized that sucker wasn't coming off the concrete, we got serious and geogirl had it in minutes.

Out doing some 'research' in the area & stumbled on this cache. Wasn't too busy when I was there. Thanks for the cache.
Not knowing the roads here, I got to a place that looked suitable to park and wandered across the road. Although when I arrived at GZ it sure looked like I could have easily parked right next to it. But that may have been a little more obvious.
I checked a couple of things when I arrived at GZ, but soon enough spotted something that just had to be the cache. I got the log sheet, and soon had my name added before heading back to the car.

Finished some work at home then off for some caching on the way to lunch. Back to Sippy Downs to finish off some we ran out of time to do a few weeks ago.
No-one around in this spot at the moment, so quick park, circle and grab! In plain sight but does blend in somehow.

Headed out for a day of caching on yet another perfect day in paradise! This one was a nice quick find. Wouldn't want to be around here at school drop off and pick up time! Nobody was around today and we spotted the hide very quickly. TNLNSL TFTC
Must have picked a good time because there were no muggles about. GPS spot on and cache was soon found. TFTC
Geopartner pulled up nearby and watched me search and find the cache nearby.
Very quiet here today for foot or bike traffic as everyone is still in school or work.
Lots of roadworks going on up the road. Digging holes everywhere.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks electro man All good with this cache

#583 ~ A very fast spot, run, grab, sign and run away again today. TFTC electro_man
Out for a morning bike ride with thehairbear and geoson so we made a short stop to find this cache. Once at GZ we checked the odd thing and soon had the cache in hand. Nice construction.
Log signed and all returned as found.

Noticed this one sneak onto the map. Close to work, and so a nice grab on the way to pick up two kids from choir.
I arrived at the general vicinity... but the GPS had me everywhere. I couldn't get a fix at all; it would bounce me about all over the place. I have no idea why. Just as I was about to get frustrated and give up... I noticed something a little unusual that made me think... "Could that be it?". It was be it.
Signed, replaced, and GPS still pointing me all over the place.

I park the Geovan near GZ and wandered over. I began my search and as I did, something unusual just caught my eye.
Upon closer inspection I realized it was what I was looking for.
I retrieved the log and signed it before replacing the log back as I found it.
I am awarding this cache one of our favorite points for its design and execution, well done!!

*FTF* @ 17.05! Saw notification come through just as I was leaving work. On the way home as well! Great to meet electro man at GZ! Spinna76 wasn't far behind... Thanks for bringing me here!
#584 @ 5:15PM 2TF for this one. Jumped on the bike thinking it would help in traffic. Wrong. Arrived at GZ and was greeted by CountAdder76 and electro man. Had a chat and made the find. Chatted some more then headed back home. Congrats CountAdder76 for FTF ~ TFTC electro_man
