Not the best way to wind up a good morning's caching. NurseyJulie and I spent a good 20 minutes at GZ, but no container came to hand.
Might need to have a check here. Some broken lights and concrete electric boxes damaged around the GZ.
This is honestly the best geocache Ive ever found, took me a little while but I got there in the end.
Good find took us some time like the hobbit theme in the end it was really fun
Quick little find. Too bad about your other one at the community garden. Thanks for putting these caches out there for us to find.
Geocaching and Tolkien are a satisfying pairing.
A nice late afternoon stroll from the shops to a quick find. A good view looking back at the shops from GZ, with the ranges in the background.
TFTC!

In the area after attending RoddyC's event and picking up a few unfound caches before heading home.
Nice and quiet here, cache found after a quick search.
Thanks bambam_and_pebbles for the neat hide.

This morning, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I had organised with a small group to bicycle the Logan Village to Yarrabilba Rail Trail whilst collecting the *LV Rail Trail* geocache series. It was then on to the [Jaunty January Jackassery](https://coord.info/GCA34H6) event nearby, where we enjoyed a few conversations and discussions, followed by the finding of several unpublished geocaching challenges within the vicinity.
This was our first find of the day, and I managed to negotiate a quick stop whilst heading to the cycle trailhead. After following my GPS to GZ, it wasn't long before I unearthed the cache container, and unfortunately, the cache container and logbook looks to have aged consderably. My guess is that water accumulates within that hidey hole, and has rusted the container. No sign of the drunk Geocacher within the logbook - perhaps they were missing a pen/stamp when they found this one? Thanks bambam_and_pebbles for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

Out with muggle friend Dieter Possum for a bit of exercise walking the Rail Trail . Stopped for a few caches in the area.
Parked on side road and made my way to GZ. No hobbit homes spied but uncovered the cache. SL then returned as found.
A lot of rubbish lying around the open area so did my own CITO here and filled a large shopping bag. Still more but didn't have any more bags.

Found it out in the open near the tree.
I put it at the base of the tree under camouflage.

Down this way for a party, but left with enough time for T4mmmy and I nab a few caches. Last one for today - a lovely spot to finish.
Thanks bambam_and_pebbles for entertaining me at this location.

*{Overall find #10865}* Found it, cool spot. We noticed the notebook is very wet probably needs replacing. Thanks
I can't get over the change in this area from my last visit. Back then it was nothing but cleared blocks, some new houses and a big park.
This one took way too long and I nearly gave up more then once. The tree climbing attribute had me up both trees at first but that didn't help the cause. I was walking away for the third time and decided to check one more time and there it was. Completely covered but still dry somehow.
Sign in and replaced as found.
Thanks again B&P

Peak hour traffic isn't the best time for this find but Mr RJ and I made it work.
We are now taking a new stick home after our find.

Planned a day's caching in the area adding smiles to some empty dots.
Took us a little time to find this one and then after a little more digging we succeeded

I saw this had been replaced and came back to make a quick find. Love the camo. Thanks for the cache
Cache stolen. So disappointed as I thought it was nice use of its hiding hole. Thank you for the cachers that provided information so I could do an maintenance check.
22/06/22 Replaced with a different type of cache. Let’s see how long this one lasts.

All the logs say quick, easy find but not for me, even with a hint from a previous finder
The third find here this morning. We should have read the details better as we ended up parking further away from here than intended.
Nonetheless cache was found after getting a close up view of the welcoming Yarrabilba sign, which in itself is lovely.
The area has certainly grown since the last time we visited.
We liked the camo here and hopefully it will protect cache.
Thanks bambam_and_pebbles.

Found it! The greatest hint. Had me scratching my head but I found it! Thanks for the cache!
Today T-Tech, teamdfl and I are heading to O'Reilly to tackle 2 ALs, a puzzle and an earthcache.
On our way home this afternoon, and all 3 of us liked the name of this one so figured we'd stop and grab it. A quick find here. TFTC, bambam_and_pebbles.

A quick stop here on the way home from a hike at O'Reilly. IolantheK needed a few more points to get the souvenir for Everest. This was only a slight detour and we like the name.
Have not been out this way for some time but the place has certainly expanded. Found the cache quickly and signed the log. TFTC
This area has certainly expanded since my last visit. This is one busy intersection but able to find hide fairly quickly. Thanks.
Breathed in a bug sadly it was also damaged but I fixed it easy find btw it’s not near the sign c:
Well camouflaged, although infested with ants and had to use a stick to retrieve.
