With time getting on, and three DNFs on this cache, I decided to give this one a miss today.
Spent 10 mins looking. Unfortunately we could not find. Will have to try again another day
Out and about doing a caching run to and around Clifton, taking as many back roads as we can find. They say the shortest distance between A & B is via as many caches as you can propose.
Wow, greart spot to stop for a coffee and cache. After a few acrobaticts by Mr D, we had the cache in our hands, signed and returned.
thanks soldier boys and Wallaby Tim

A beautiful sunny day that was begging us to come out and play, so a-caching we will go!
Nothing better than fresh air & sunshine on a country drive to raise the spirits.
A nice quick find for Mrs VC.
Too much gymnastic effort for me!
Made our mark & replaced as found.

Driving around turning green dots into smilies. A beautiful hall, thanks for taking me here. Tftc
Quick find on our way to Warwick. Thank you for bringing us to this lovely hall.
Arrived to find cache and after some searching, ache was found. Signed log. TFTC
Been meaning to grab this one for ages but there always seems to be people at the hall whenever we go past. All quiet today and a quick find was made.

Saw this cache had generous parking so we rolled the big rig in. A nicely kept hall... we saw a lot of it when the phone couldn't make up its mind. TFTC soldier boys.
Got this one while we were transiting through with the caravan. Drizzle around. Searched a few likely spots before finding. Thanks
Wow... that almost never happens... first place I put my hand... I’m still in shock...tftc...

Friday. We had a relatively quick find on this one. With recent gardening works, we realised we needn’t have got down as low as we did in the fist place. We came out quite clean on this one.
This was the 7th of 8 caches found on this outing.
Thanks ***soldier boys*** for showing us this place

Visiting Toowoomba and finding a few caches around the area. Day 2: a big loop south taking in Wyreema, Cambooya, Nobby, Clifton and Allora as well as other areas of interest along the way.
Took some searching but after getting down and dirty it was soon spotted.

Drive by every week on a Tuesday and never had time or muggkes around......today was it. I found it.
Not quite so quick find on our way to Warwick. Log signed and replaced as found. TFTC
Very disappointed to not find a cache here. I got caught out in the heaving rain, and then could not locate the cache anywhere. Spent a good 10 minutes looking here, but had to move on and try to stick to my tight schedule.
8875 Located by baby&Mrs gopher ( We also sign as bMg on small log sheets ) at 1020. On our way now towards Brisbane so attempted a couple on the way. Quick easy find with good parking for the van. In good condition. SL Tnx Wallaby Tim.
So, we left it a little late, International Geocaching Day was upon us, we had planned to attend an event, but with us both feeling a little under the weather, we didnt make it out of the house till 4:30pm, Mrs Wallaby and I had found a cache down the road, and this one, despite being maintained by us, hadnt actually been found by us yet, and seeing as it hasnt had its ownership transferred, still fair game for a find, we had been here a couple of times, and this cache is one that gave us extreme cache blindness, possibly due to a little bit of cache creep, but, with the phone in hand and torch mode turned on, I went in for the team and made the ... kill? or find.. either way, this little bugger has finally stopped eluding us... and we can throw down that smiley for the day... Thanks Soldier Boys!
Heading to an event today, I figured it was a good day to take a detour and find some caches, including this one! It took me quite a while to find, and I needed to read previous logs before realising I needed to ramp up my efforts, lol. Thanks for placing this cache here.
With Hatzofff, we are on our way home from Blackall and QOGM 2019 preparations.
No painters here today so cache found after a short hands and knees search.

Both my Geodog Scruffy and myself were itching to get out and find a few caches, so with the temperature looking a little more pleasant, we headed off
All Good .. TFTC ..

This was a quick stop and find with the hint. It is a lovely morning on our way home to the Sunshine Coast. TFTC
This one gave our GPS a little grief and had it swinging back and forth, we decided to read the hint and previous logs and gained enough information to center our search where we found the cache. Hubby did the honours. SL TFTC
After setting up camp in the showgrounds for a few days, we had lunch a rest then out caching along the farming roads.
A good variety of caches & hides.
Thanks for placing this cache soldier boys

Filling the calendar with traditionals only...and so Kestal and I find ourselves out this way
a-gain!! Another early start...F-f-f-f-f-reezing!!! Car registered minus four at one point on the drive - very happy the temp was in the positive (just!) when we arrived at GZ...although I don't think it made much difference as I still experienced a numb bum from my longer-then-desired semi-reclined retrieval/log signing position.

-1 Why? -2 Why? -3 Why? - 4 SERIOUSLY!!
Just a little chilly heading out with Eskies5 today to fill the empty traditionals spots in our calendar. We arrived at GZ before the sun rose but while we were waiting for a car or two to pass and then checking all the info we needed we had a small amount of light to start our search. Eskies5 was a little more braver than I was and placed herself firmly on the metal ramp, brrrrr. I on the other was hoping that squatting at all sorts of angles was going to bring us the find. Eskies5 more thorough way of searching was the way that bought us the log book. With everything signed it was all replaced ready for the next finder. TFTC soldier boys

Find 13510 On the way to Laidley and grab this one as we drove past, all in good order thanks Soldier Boys
Harder find than expected.Lots of possible places to hunt.We are on the last leg of our 3 month roadtrip crossing 7 borders and seeing the best parts of Oz.
We are nomads. Having left Perth WA in February 2014 we now live in our caravan and go wherever the will or caches take us.
Moving day today from Rosewood to Warwick before we start our roadtrip to Birdsville for the 2018 Big Red Bash. Noticed a couple of caches that we had not previously found, so good opportunities to break our roadtrip.

Out and about today for a long drive to find 7 caches.
I had the place to myself today.
A bit of searching before spotting this one and now onto the next one. [^]
Thanks for the cache.

When I saw an event in Toowoomba for the 20th of May 2018 I hatched a plan to tackle the outstanding hides I needed to convert to a yellow smiley. Followed GPSr to area around GZ and parked safe very close to the hall. Had a good look but failed to find the container. Initially thought the co ordinates were 7 meters out but knowing that there was no need to walk in the garden placed the GPSr on the ramp and went back to the geo mobile. Came back and the GPSr indicated 2 meters to GZ. Had another look and there it was. How did I miss that the first time. Read the additional hint carefully. Good hide. think 2. 2 what. That is what you have to work out when you see area at GZ. Posted co ordinates are good but let you GPS device settle as there is a lot of metal around.

Did a detour today to get this one, if found it would be my 1700 find overall. It took awhile but I finally found it. So I was second to find. I love and respect all things that have been established for our service men and women. A heart is given for this especially in the year marking the end of the First War and being my 1700 find. Rest In Peace and thank you to all that served this country
FTF! TFTC! Easter Saturday FTF! What a wonderful Easter present. Sheer determination got me this find in amongst cobwebs
