Just came from a DNF at Beppie. Really should have read the description before hand, both are missing
Not to hard to find. Wanted to take it and log, but the ants were to aggressive. So, just a photo.
Found when visiting the grand kids. Wasn't as hard as I was expecting, parking wasn't the best so had to park and walk back a little to GZ. Left signature and on my way. TFTC
On the way from one job to another today I made a sneaky stop for a smilie. I've often looked at the flood markers on the way past, mother nature doesn't muck around does she? Tftc!
Found on our way back from Stinsons Park. The log is full and needs replacing. A quick and easy find. Tftc.
I stopped here because I needed to use the facilities. After that I checked out the flood markers. Interesting that they are made out of the old bridge. Quick find at GZ. Thanks for the cache
Thanks for the find I saw the red lights from the distance last night while camping here and went for a wander this morning to check out the posts. Cool idea.
Found today by ruby fox and I. It is ruby foxes first cache ever and she found it before me. Ruby fox wins. Yaaa. Cache is in good condition. Tftc
After attending the Beaudesert Creative Markets for some tasty treats and moody tunes , we headed out afterwards for some geocaching. What a great place to recharge! With a spring in my step I spied the prize. Signed the log and replaced as found. Really enjoyed seeing the different flood markers. Thanks for bringing us here. Loo break was good too!
Having a drive round with my sister (nessie56) and my brother-in-law (malrob66) and
getting a few caches on the way.
Parked up and headed straight to the obvious place. A nice quick find. TFTC.

Back in my old stomping grounds after an eight year absence (I was a muggle in those days) so have a lot of caching up to do in South East Queensland. We used to live in nearby Jimboomba, and were on our way to catch up with old neighbours. I used to attend sunday school picnics in this park about an eon ago.
Quick find after comparing dates and flood heights. thanks HaiHarHoo

# 2076 - On our way to a camper group meeting at Kyogle we stop at Tully memorial Park for the night. A pleasant spot and I am quite impressed with the fancy flood markers.
Thanks to the hint I had the cache soon in hand. Nice spot for hiding a cache.

I was going to stop here on the way out, but the traffic was busy. The car behind me was in way too much of a hurry and waaaayyy to close.
No worries on the way home, much quieter mid morning.
Another quick find thanks

We saw this monument go up a few years back, we saw when they had a blank pole and then later when it was marked for the floods. I think they are optimistic that it wont flood again seeing as they have no more poles here for the future. The cache was dry today. I removed the rubbish item someone had put into it and popped it back in place.
Pun intended for the hint .
Good find and such a nice little place and took a nice photo of my partner

Having set up camp at the Tully Memorial Park (where free camping is allowed for 3 nights) we ventured out to find a few caches. We found a variety of hides and containers and the micros in the bush (especially the particularly creative ones) tested our perseverence. Thankyou HaiHarHoo for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area
On n the area for work made a quick found and checked out the flood markers.
Onwards and forwards too the next cache.
Thanks for the cache

Heading to Archerfield for a picnic by the airport and the kids wanted to find a cache - boy we've trained them well.
Literally drove straight up to this one and could spy it from the car. Quick kids, out you hope, we'll let you do the honors. After a bit of encouragement, they eventually found it, I signed hte log and they replaced it. They thought it was the coolest thing ever to happen.
Thanks HaiHarHoo cache was in good condition

Quick find and a good one. I see the markers from the road everyday but never stop. Tftc
Flood markers pretty impressive. And we thought the 2017 flood level was high! Thank you
Out today to find a couple a couple of caches. Stopped here at this cache and was impressed by the monuments - very informative. Cache was soon found. TFTC HaiHarHoo
Collecting a few finds this morning before we head out to the QOGM event tomorrow. Sound found the hide and after that had a good look at the flood markers. TFTC.
We stopped by this cache on our way home from Mt Tambourine. We loved the park and we had a great play with the kids on the grass. We marvelled at the flood markers which got our minds boggled. The cache is a lovely hide.
We replaced the log book as the original one was jammed in so badly, it took us literarily 5 minutes to get it out. The new log book is waterproof and has room for 100 entries and one can get it in and out easily. We copied the old entries (3) from the original log book into the new one so no original entry is missing. We also left a pencil behind and affixed an official geocaching sticker on it. Should the owner wish to have the old log book back, I am happy to post it.
TFTC and thank you for bringing us to this lovely park!

Located pretty quick after we had a casual read of the history of the floods. TFTC
My wife had a Physio appointment so I had time to find a few caches instead of waiting for her.
I headed to this one first. I have great memories of coming here as a kid and swimming in the river but I suppose the water is not fit for swimming these days. I also have memories of the old bridge flooding.
The coordinates were accurate and the cache quickly found.

Found @ 10.40 am
Well, we kissed goodbye to our trip to Stanthorpe! LOL ...
Distracted at first by 3 new caches near Munruben, then another two out Flinders View way, now this one & another at Yarrabilba.
It looks like Stanthorpe has taken a back seat until later in the week.
Hey, aHa, wHo decided not to go to Stanthorpe but rather stay local & collect all these FTFs?
We flew back here after successfully securing the two FTFs out near Flinders View not really expecting another FTF but just for the hell of it.
At first I thought the compass was playing games with us again but then the penny dropped & the pieces all came together.
Yes … Gotcha!
Another nice clean log book just waiting to be adorned by our stamp! LOL …
Haha!
First blood on this one too.
Made our mark & replaced as found.
The flood markers are quite interesting.
When we got home I actually googled them & read up on this bit of history.
Intrigued!
