Three DNFs: one by a previous sighting but its not there. CO needs to check it out.
Mr RoddyC has some caching time today, what better to do than be in the company of DiamonJs doing some caches around Elanora and Currumbin. We started just after 7.00am and finished about seven hours later on the first day of November - not too hot yet, and we covered a lot of different territory.
DiamonJs realised that she had pulled up here before bout could not reach a cache she could see. Today, it was just not there, sadly.

This was my second find for the day. I pulled the car up alongside the GZ and searched around the likely spot before reaching for the find. I don't get the hint, but luckily didn't need it anyway. SL TFTC
This find was another cheeky "driver reviver break", exiting the freeway into this suburb again for my daily find. Starting to empty out the icons on the map in these parts. I quite like all these parks along the river.
When i pulled up here i started walking where i expected the search to take place but the gps disagreed vehemantly.
As it turned out i had parked in the perfect place to provide cover for extracting the cache which i spotted quickly once i had determined gz.
Thanks for the cache here, glad I'm not a shorty.

Tricky one! It took me a while to look in the right place but then it was straightforward!

On my day off and needed to be in a natural environment straight after a massage. Saw this cache very close and it fit the bill. Hard to retrieve and return surreptitiously if your physical attributes aren't the best! Found what I thought must be someone else's makeshift tool nearby and tried to get it between muggles. I don't shy away from a challenge! A beautiful grey egret supervised my visit. TFTC
On our way North with OrionJ this one came up and we quickly pulled up at the coords. Quick find, signed and returned as found. TFTC.
Heading around finding a few cache today with LHE Duo as we were heading from Tweed Heads up to Robina this morning. This was maybe a little out of the way but we had spotted another cache that we wanted to stop for which this was on the way.
As we pulled up I had identified an option that looked good, however the coords were pointing us to a slightly different spot. Of course that makes sense and soon the cache was in hand. Log signed and replaced.

Well I saw it but I was without my caching bag so no retrieval tools, maybe next time. TFTC
Sneaky little spot. Drive past this every day to and from work. Always blown away by the strange house near by
A quick find for us today that required a little effort to put back in its hiding place. TFTC KF8.
When we pulled up in the car, without looking at my gps, I headed for a likely location. My geocaching companion for the day did look at her gps and headed somewhere else. We spotted the cache and used something handly to retrieve it and replace it. Many thanks king-fisher8. [^][^]
Great cache with help from bestie probably favourite cache thanks for afl trinket go swans
Nice cheeky little micro! Good hide, great to get another local cache!

I was down this way this morning to take a work friend out caching ...but he had to go into work to sort out a mesh from yesterday. 
So, out and about by myself before the rain gets too bad.
Not where I thought it was going to be when I parked the car. [?]
A quick find here ... and the rain is slowly getting heavier.
Thanks for the cache.

As I walked along the creek from where I parked expected a challenge but it was nearly too visible anyone could see it.TFTC.
Captain Terror and I had been lucky enough to be able to spend a few days with some great friends at Toonumbar Dam. It was time to come home and we had left Kyogle, driven through Lismore, passed quickly through Byron Bay, left Mullumbimby, went around Murwillumbah, crossed the border and was now heading home via the coast.
We got out of the subaru and I started off in one direction. The Captain called me over, the coordinates are over here. Oh! He made the quick find and we signed our names in a container similar to one we saw at the start of our journey home. Thanks for the cache king-fisher8

It had been a day of looking at the GPSr's map of the vague area we were heading, clicking an icon and following it's directions there. Thus Net88 and I had driven all over Northern NSW and I was somewhat lost while navigating to this geocache. Oh, the trust I place in the Oregon!
I parked the Subaru alongside GZ and we hopped out. Initially I thought the geocache would be over there, but the GPSr said to look somewhere else. So we went there, a quick look and I had the beast in hand. We found a similar container down in Lismore this morning actually! The logbook was signed, then all put back as found. Now, off to the last one for the day. TFTC king-fisher8

I actually parked within metres of GZ but at first didn't realise and headed off to where I thought the cache may be hidden then I read the hint and refocused and soon spotted the prize!!
An interesting IPS cache along my tour of newly placed caches!
Thanks King-Fisher TFTC SL

A short drive up 19th ave from the last find and I was soon parked in front of a house that I would never be able to afford. Are you kidding me, do you really need four levels on the river? That place is huge, god knows why they have, what looks like a garage door on the third level but I guess if you can then why not.
From where I parked I could actually see the cache sticking out like a pimple so I left the phone and keys in the car and wandered over. Yep thats it alright, grabbed it and headed over to the water for the third time today. While signing the log I thought for a second there was a croc in the water but it just turned out to be a nicely shaped branch floating down along the waters edge.
I replaced it a little better then I found it, just hope gravity doesn't take over again.
For the fourth time today thanx king fisher

I was passing nearby and so did a u tun and came back to make this find. A lot of traffic on this road!!
Thanks king-fisher8.
Thanks king-fisher8.
Thought there was a more suitable spot for a larger cache nearby but found it quickly. Thanks.
We like to go for a regular afternoon walk, and today instead of walking through Schuster Park, which is one option in the afternoon, we elected to walk from there to this cache site. An interesting walk with some interesting houses along that side of the road.
The container size was 'interesting' and we were glad the other member of the team had been to "Longreach" in the path. As for myself I would have difficulties and I know of some cachers who would have no chance.
Thanks for the cache.

Story of how we came about getting this cache is below
After doing the CDPT Trail between Yatala & Pimpama I had just sat down on the couch when the phone rang, a fellow geo cacher CANTCACHEUS asking how I was and trying to keep me on the phone so I don't see the new caches coming thru my emails!! After 5-10 mins of chatting he told me his was on his way to a FTF on my joint trail I've made with another geo cacher Couchmen !! As him and I place our caches separate on the trail we can go for each other's caches so I said I'll join you, and he said NO IM WANTING A FTF hahaha so I replied I'll wait in the car till you find it and then go for STF he agreed to that and I hang up and headed off to meet him there!
A 15 min drive became a 25 min drive with roadworks and the heaviest rain we had in a long time car loosing grip hit water puddles etc I finally pulled up to parking spot near GZ and two cars were there and we had both been beaten hahaha after meeting linden we spoken for a 10mins then headed out to find the cache, after cache spoke a bit then went home.
After 5-10mins of being home I get a message from CANTCACHEUS did you notice the FTF are not taken in robina! My reply was WHATTTT!! really! But it's 10pm!! Stuff it were going for it Ty is keen and we have nothing planned for tomorrow.
Wrote down the new Unfound FTFs from Robina right up to Tweed!
We rocked up at robinas FTF and glad to sign the log in first place!!! So pick up this cache and a few others that were next to the new caches while we were there and ended up getting 4 NSW FTF CACHES and doing about 9 caches caches in total.
