Do you believe in...... Fairies Eagleby, Queensland, Australia
By RoddyC - original placement by Sewrainbow on 14-Sep-16. Waypoint GC6T1P4

The Fairy Dust no longer works, and the ravaging beasts had devoured our beloved fairy.

Council very busy working around GZ. Don't know if this will affect the cache, but might be worth checking when they are done.

Log was quite damp but still here!
TFTC RoddyC

Picked up by my partner while he was at work. He actually found this by accident
Tried to write in the log book but pages were too wet. Picked up a magic trackable. Thank you!

Cache refurbished. All OK.

Wow! At 3-4pm on a weekday it is busyyyy here. With the highway exit and McDonalds driveway nearby there are a lot of eyes on this one.

I rode here so after grabbing just acted like I was having a bit to eat from my lunchbox!

Thanks for the cache!

On arriving at site it appears someone had muggles the cache and left its contents strewn far and wide.

Managed to put it back together as best I could and stashed it again.

Cheers

Very easy one in a high muggle area. Surprised it hasn’t been muggled. TFTC

Quick and easy find on the side of the road thanks so much for placing

Out this side of town to attend the monthly Logan catch Up event. I required a regular for the day and this was also not only close, but from the logs appeared to be a nice easy grab without have to trip trap through the bush - which is good when your still in you work clothes.

Pulled into the service centre and took a close park. Made the very short walk to GZ, where the cache greeted me with a bold hello. Grabbing it with glee I signed my name to the log book and placed it all back together - although I did add a Magic trackable that I had picked up at some point. This seemed to be a good match Magic and fairy’s. With all the official duties done I replaced the container added a little more natural camo and then headed off to explore the surrounds via an Adventure Lab.

Cheers for the quick cache!

Found

Easy find, great for kids. TFTC

Cache found without any issues.. all looks to be in good working condition.. thanks heaps for the hide!!

Down the hill and round the corner, hunting a cache we go. Nice quick find after some lunch. I like the picture too.

TFTC RoddyC from the Jester-kiwi and the Princess . We had stopped for a bite next door and decided on a (hopefully) quick find for dessert. BINGO

A couple of quick caches with my good geo friends, team Aussie Liahona before and after the nearby CITO activity.
This was a quick pick up for us and the cache was found in good condition covered by some natural litter.

Thanks for the neat hide here RoddyC

I mistakenly gave geohubby the hint for the previous cache we found today so when we came here we were both looking in locations that didn’t check the location. However we then did find the cache and signed with Snickersallan before replacing all as found.
Cheers and happy caching!

Tftc, quick find, all good with this one

This afternoon, I took a drive south to coincide with the monthly *Logan Geocaching Catch Up* event, and to take the opportunity to make a stop at IKEA Slacks Creek. Unfortunately IKEA was closed due to floods clean-up, so I continued south and made a few stops around Eagleby and Beenleigh, enjoying a few walks along the paths and tracks whilst avoiding impacted areas from the recent rains/floods. I then rounded the evening with a dinner and catch-up in Beenleigh.

Whilst driving past, I thought I would make a stop here, parking nearby. It was then a short walk to GZ, where the cache was quickly found. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks RoddyC for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Nice Quick find with my junior geocachers. It is the first time in a log time we remembered to being some swaps, and honestly, the decision making of what to take and leave took longer than finding the cache!!!
TFTC!

TFTC

Nice quick find with a my Dad and cousin. We decided to meet up at the service centre here to set of from and it just happened to be within 50 metres

TFTC! Hard but easy at the same time

Of to do the cemetery caches.. tftc

Good cache

1st of the day and happy to start it with a smiley. Was a real quick find . Thank you

Came here to treat myself to a Mac as sundae after seeing my plastic surgeon up in the city and while I was eating I was planning on going to a different cache near by in the cemetery but I saw this one so close and just had to do it and then realised I just hit my 200th cache! This was very cute, I left a pencil in there for people to use

On my way to an evening event that I enjoy going to, I found myself a little early. With time to kill, I decided to grab a few caches in this area.
This one I had been to before yet it was missing, today I got to rectify that and sign a nice new log inside a nice size cache. It was an easy grab and I parked on the footpath and wondered in, no one seemed to be bothered. Thank you for the hide and maintain this cache.

Ha ha this was me keeps moving. Finally get to log it after 2 other visits.

I AM GUR

Super quick find

Easier than I thought in this area. Thanks.

Spotted this one super quickly.
Tftc!

Nene2313 has excellent eyesight. Found quickly. TFTC.

We were looking and looking. Then miss10 spotted it

My first stop of the day... and an opportunity to turn a blue face yellow... unlike my previous visit this was a nice quick find... I added a little more natural camo after making my mark...

I got the pleasure of meeting the CO and his partner recently... they are truly delightful...

Thanks RoddyC for all your work...

Knocked about at GZ for a few minutes before finding this one.

Hidden well in plain sight like the description suggests. I walked back and forth a few times - up the slight incline and as inconspicuously as possible - before spotting a corner of the cache peeking out from its hiding spot. Just enough cover to sign and replace.

TFTC!

Had a fairy sign up this morning. Strange creatures they are! And the smell! Ye gods!

Had a good look around and came up empty handed.
Thanks for the hunt.

Out caching and CITOing with CaptainVimes. Searched a bit further off at first based on a previous log. But found it much closer to the posted coords. Thanks for the cache

Found the new container. It's about 9 metres from cords but still an easy find. TFTC

**Found 20/02/2021 at 4:20:47 PM Smiley #1111 **

Caching has never really been about the numbers. I drive generally over a thousand km's a week (some for work, some to explore, some for the kids, and some just because I have to) so there's always a cache or two to break up the drive. Having said that, I also enjoy numbers, fulfilling challenges, and quirky statistics. It's for this reason, I'm going to aim to fill my dates found and dates hidden this year, and a few other challenges in the local area.

This one was targeted because I needed on on todays date (now at 223 out of 365), but also needed to find one hidden on the 14th of September (320 out of 366). Heading to work in Cleveland for the night, and getting a coffee at the nearby maccas, this seemed like a perfect cache to stop at.

There was a gigantic spider that had made a nest hovering over the cache, so with a bit of limbo, and careful relocation of the nest, the cache was quickly in hand. All nice and clean, and in a good condition with the new log in place. Log signed and replaced as found, with a bit of natural cover and I was off. Could smell the coffee, and had work to go to.

Thanks for the cache **RoddyC**

TFTC smile 8485 out and about with miss Millie geo dog how lovely is this cache

Thank you, RoddyC - original placement by Sewrainbow, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

As promised. Don't forget to put your name in the Log sheet before claiming a find.

New container ready - will enable in a day or two.

It has been over one week. Cache is still disabled.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Should be able to check next week

May be missing - need to check - in the meantime disabling to stop fruitless finds.

Had a pretty good look around in the 20m2 of location but no luck.

cant seem to find in area listed

????

Was in the area and thought I’d have a go at the last of this series for me.... today wasn’t the day though... next time?

Nice and quick find. Thanks for the whiskey

A quick find here once I made the walk to gz. All in good condition here, although the fairies may have had a party because someone's whisky glass was sitting on the ground right near the cache! Tftc RoddyC

Easy find

Miss fairy is not home but left a note after work

Tftc

It's my last week in Australia for a while, unless I'm stranded here, so what better way to cram in the caches than to join RoddyC for another maintenance run. Today we went round lots of hides in the Eagleby area, not just Rod's and got quite a haul.
This one had dodgy coordinates and no possibility to correct them due to gc rules so we relocated it to a fairy nice spot nearby. Tftc and UTV

Coordinates changed from:
S 27° 42.139 E 153° 12.054

Coordinates changed to:
S 27° 42.121 E 153° 12.036

Distance from original: 146.3 feet or 44.6 meters.

Council work has made the relocation necessary.

Gods damn it! Fairies have been at work here. You can tell by the fact that shiny things are missing. They’ve disappeared now though.

Out caching with CaptainVimes. Terrain was a bit higher than indicated and we couldn’t find a good hide for the container size. A bit weary and hungry we decided to give up for the day. Thanks for the hunt

I stopped by because I’m on my way home from the airport and wanted to drop in a few trakkas. Alas I couldn’t find it in the dark.

Coordinates changed from:
S 27° 42.108 E 153° 12.058

Coordinates changed to:
S 27° 42.139 E 153° 12.054

Distance from original: 190.0 feet or 57.9 meters.

To hopefully comply.

Coords fixed

Was heading South and made time for this cache.
As I was about to return the cache I felt something between my hand and the container, I might not believe in fairies, but something must have stopped the big spider from taking a bite out of my hand.
A big wave to CO, god to see you yesterday.
 
Thank you for another adventure

I'm sorry, but your recent move has brought your cache too close to the Physical Waypoint of[GCZCWM: Resting 2](http://coord.info/GCZCWM) and will need to be moved. Please read the following item on [Cache Saturation](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachesaturation)

I've disabled this listing for the time being, could you please move it to a new location that fits within the saturation guidelines. Once that is done you may enable the cache.

Rgds,
Matt - Ministro.

Easy find but a busy spot with the foodaries across the road. TNLN Needs swaps.

Carrying out maintenance with RoddyC. Need to keep this one going. Great to see bush so close to local businesses. Muggles not interested in what you are doing.

Found it but it’s broken

Out with joojoo57 for a day of caching, to get some numbers for the final Mystery at the Museum souvenir.

We spent ages here, but came up empty-handed

After a good 15/20 minute search we were unable to find a cache. Another time maybe .....

Found but broken and nothing inside, owner might want to check

Just found my diary with all my unlogged finds from when cgeo was playing up so sorry for the late log. Found while caching after work. tftc

Found it together with vogi84 during our honeymoon in Australia. Greetings from Switzerland. Today we drove from Brisbane to Coffs Harbour. After a coffee and some breakfast, we did this one. TFTC

Zusammen mit Fränzi88 auf unser Flitterwochen-Reise durch Australien gefunden! Danke fürs Auslegen!

Thanks TRoddyC - I had just got off the M1 and turned on my GPS and followed it to wherever it said there were traditional caches. I found 6 in a couple of hours - driving from one to another. My problem now is where are they on the map on my computer - I don't know the area. My problem is you have a series of "Do you believe in ..." We don't get the whole name on our GPS. I think this is the one I found - but I'm not sure. I found one near here so I'm claiming this one.

Heading home and stopped at Macca's for coffee. Haha, couldn't resist this little gem over the road. Thanks heaps! Peanut n Turtle

Today’s plan was to get a few caches to accumulate some of the souvenirs available for the Hidden Creatures challenge. Met up with gunnie69 at Eagleby who had an ambitious plan for the day. It started with questioning our beliefs in mythical creatures, finishing off a series of ones around Mt Warren Park.

Cache 1 of 29 for the day.


Thanks RoddyC for the hunt and the cache!

The start of a lanned achign run with Ghostgums today, to see if we could snare some souvenirs. [^] After meeting at the "restaurant" across the road, this was the first for the day in our run and a very quick find.

Not so warm this morning, so the log was out, singed and returned in no time at all, then we hot footed it back to the warmth of the nearby car.

Cheers Sewrainbow and RoddyC.

Got it TFTC

TFTC

Nice quick find with bennyboppers and remsjw. Tftc

Found with lisylou and remsjw

Just one more on the way home. Short of time so went off with the fairies, not quite at the bottom of the garden.

Was out and about to find a few caches today and saw this one the map . Parked across the road from GZ and it seem the safest method to reach GZ. On approach to GZ the cache was soon found . Thanks for the cache RoddyC . TFTC!!!

**# 21334** Found on our 2018 mega adventure to ACT, NSW, QLD and beyond.
Another fine Winter day for a trip around Eagleby while at Beenleigh for a few days.
Lots of muggles around today and a few more good safe hides.
Thanks for the cache RoddyC,
***Roostaman***

Our first find for the day. Like others we parked across the road and carefully made our way across the road and in a few minutes, cache was found, log signed and returned ready for the next cacher.
Thanks for the cache Roddy C and Sewrainbow

Maintenance run today on some of the caches we adopted from Sewrainbow.

We visited a TB here as it was being retrieved by Echocage1

Happy to say the cache is in good condition and waiting its next finder

I seem to have spent the last year or so following the Sneaky Squirrels around but only ever catching up tocthem once at an event. So it was back to usual business today. Picked up the golden frog TB to take to somewhere near water. TFTC. All good here.

It’s been a while since this cache was last found, so figured we’d go and check on it. Parked across the road at the golden arches. Once we located the hide we noticed that its fairy guardian is no longer with the container (as per the description), which is a shame. The large cache is in good condition, although slightly damp. Took a laminated quote and left the Golden Toad TB to encourage others to visit this cache too.

Do you believe in...... Fairies was transferred from Sewrainbow to user RoddyC

Quick easy find

This was a quick park n grab for the end of the day. Definitely love fairies . Tftc will be back for more of the do you believe series...

Yes - always. Nice one

On a long road trip, this was a welcome stop for the kids to stretch their legs and pick up some goodies. TFTC!

No fairy that we could see, hope she's not gone travelling!

This morning I had to supervise a training session at Club Beenleigh and came over a few minutes early to find a cache. I wish I could put a GC code into my car navigation instead of an address. Life would be so much easier.

I parked around the corner and walked up the path and when no cars were around, I ducked in. After finding the cache I stayed in the crouch position to sign the log. A grown man squatting in a bush would cause concern for most.

I came back out of the dewy grass and looked down at my shoes. Probably not the professional start to the day I was hoping for. tftc
