Possibly missing. Mis Ruby Fox had her first DNF. I think the earth shook. The cache owner may like to check this one out with 3 end at the location. Tftc
Log book is wet . We are we the lid on well to avoid any more water getting in . Thanks
On my way home from work at treetops. Needed a cache for today for my streak so here it is! Tftc!
There was a car parked near so went for a drive around the suburb. Still there when we came back so just went for it anyway. On the ground in plan sight. Tucked it away as best I could but fear it will be discovered easily by local muggles partying as lots of evidence in the area. Didnt have a bag or gloves to pick it up. Next cacher please bring a bag
Easy parking close to gz ... clues & photo helped. Down side ... that there was so much rubbish & litter around I had to be cautious where I stepped. Didn't have any bags & gloves on me to take trash out so next casher please bring a bag.
Watawieh from Norfolk Island South Pacific. Out & about for the afternoon finding caches. Found next to the tree as logged by a previous finder. TFTC
Found the cache and its contents spread out in a wide area. Placed back together and hid at the base of a tree, log needs some maintenance
With a few showers hanging around I was glad that this was a quick find.

**# 21308** Found on our 2018 mega adventure to ACT, NSW, QLD and beyond.
Another fine Winter day for a trip to x while at the Gold Coast for a week.
Lots of muggles around today and a few more good safe hides.
Thanks for the cache laurenjaynee94,

Found this cache but moisture has gotten into the container and the Log Book was a bit damp - Cache requires maintenance. TFTC
Another good find while enjoying the drive around the area.
Thanks for the fun. log quite wet.

With so much overgrown flora, including spiky bushes, and not to mention an abundance of creepy crawlies and general rubbish, we weren't certain we were going to find this one...Thankfully He-Squirrel spotted this very well-hidden cache! A sneaky tip from us Squirrels: it's not where you'd expect to find us living...Sneaky Squirrels
Had another crack at it!!!! gps still didn't like this spot !!! grab,signed and off!!! Thanks laurenjaynee94
Finally, after three separate attempts we finally found it. Almost tripped over it.
It is an interesting area down here...i never knew there were so many houses. I pulled up the geovehicle at the dead end and exited to begin my search. It wasnt long before i had the cache in hand. All is good here, the log a little damp but generally ok. SL TSLS TFTC
Hahaha some urban planner was getting ahead of themselves here. I disnt know where to park... it felt weird just applying the breaks in the middle of the road just off a roudabout... is better be quick i thought to myself.
Unusually, reality matched my desires today, and i found the c as cache straight away. The hardest part was negotiating the long grass in my pluggers.
Thanks for the geocache here, thats another smiley and another day of the calendar ticked off.
-- This log is trackable ! --
-- Feel free to discover --
-- Please mention, in which cache you've seen this code: --

Next stop on the mornings jaunt around the place. I was half expecting it to be up the enbankment but thankfully for my pluggers it wasn't. Just enough cover from the passing traffic provided by the nearby tree to sign in.

Out collecting dates for my hidden calendar. Not quite the hide I expected but an easy find. TFTC
The hint only told me what I already knew and suggested another hiding place. Nice forgotten roundabout exit. TFTC.
This poor old cache hadn't had visitors for a while! Grabbed the TB to move on. TFTC.
Cache was a surprise. Not where I thought it would be, lol. But found nevertheless. There was a thrown away HUGE underbed storage container that I jokingly said I thought would be the cache just near GZ. Of course that wasn't it. There was a trackable in the cache which we discovered and that was picked up by JooJoo57 to move along. Thanks for the cache laurenjaynee94 [^][^]
That's the third spider cache guardian I've had to deal with this month! Besides that, cache is in good condition. The log is damp but signable. Thanks
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.
The 'carpark' near GZ could be called a creek today.
A quick find here once I got to GZ. but getting there required 'wading' across this 'creek'.
I don't see a 'wading' attribute [?] lol
and the rain is still getting heavier.
I am now 'offically' WET, time to go home ... after I go find the others in this suburb.
Thanks for the cache.

After we finished our usual Saturday morning routine of cleaning the house and doing the food shop shaun asked what I wanted to do today.... Silly question really but I suggested caching and he was just as keen knowing that it was almost lunch time we only set out for a couple
This was one for our afternoon and it was a quick find TFTC

Was showing a friend our fav game and she was keen to beat me to the cache but being a newbie she didn't know the signs to look for. I quickly spotted the hide while she checked out the stash. TSLSSL TFTC
Ok... I'm wimp. I saw the cache published during the week on the evening of 'the storm'. We'd been out that afternoon chasing three first to finds, and had arrived home just as the storm, such as it was, started to get a little more serious. It was probably mid storm that the notification email arrived and rather than race out, we decided to stay home. Of course history has shown the Dchanel did the 'midnight' run and 'cleaned up' all the outstanding first to finds.
Never the less, since we were in the area we decided to call past and turn the green box into a smilie on our map. As others have said the clue is a little misleading, but the cache wasn't hard to find once a little logic was applied.
We took nothing, and left nothing - except our autograph in the logbook. Thanks for the cache. I hope to see some more from you soon.

Nice hide, and a slightly misleading hint heehee. The camo paint looked good but the cover had been left a bit light, woe betide the next GCer lol. Tftc.
*FTF* 11.00pm
Paint coming off cache must be water based
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 FTF CACHES and doing about 9 caches caches in total.
Getting home at 1-2 am
