Our first Queensland cache.
This cache needs a little TLC as the container is very brittle and cracked form its exposure to UV.

Nice easy find at 0830hrs. The log is wet and the container is broken. Both probably need replacing.

Easy find on a quiet Sunday. The cache needs repair as very badly cracked. The log was wet & we dried it out on warm Geocar bonnet. Suggest log needs replacing along with the container.

The whole town is full of signs but better than roundabouts. Log was damp so it went on a bit of a drive while it dried out. TFTC
My son Rob grabbed this cache at 2040.
It's very quiet at this time of night.
Thanks for the cache. TNLN...SL

Found at 10am during peak hour muggles, what a busy intersection! Cache was easy to locate but had to wait under the shady tree until area was clear of muggles.
Had to grab one cache whilst passing through and this was the lucky fella! There must have been a sign! Cheers Gav [1259]
Co-ords spot on, so it was simply a matter of waiting for the traffic to pass and grabbing it. TFTC. =’.’=
Busy intersection. Got at least one curious look as I sat on the grass feigning interest in the nearby garden. Finally saw my chance and took it. TFTC
A full on weekend raid on our own through Gympie, Maryborough, Burrum Heads, back down through Kin Kin and Noosaville collecting 62 caches along the way.
Nice easy find TNLN. Well it had to be one of them!

Interesting placement our GPS took us to the middle of the intersection so we knew we had 4 options. He Goon found it..and Yep fun for the vertical challenged cachers.

Found at 11.35am. A nice easy straight forward cache to locate, but just a tad more difficult to grab unnoticed. The local council employee was going crazy on the ride on mower doing the footpaths. Cars everywhere. Anyhow, the grab, sign, and replacement were made. Cache number 4 for the big trip down south.

This cache proved Murphy's law nicely [^]
I strolled until I found my self at one of life's crossroads. Suddenly cars seemed to appear from all the points of the compass [:o]
Stealth mode activated and a nice quick find. Signed the log and waited and waited and waited for a break in the traffic to rehide the cache. No such luck, so a stealthy rehide (ie: stare at someone till they looked away quickly) then rehide
People in cars don't like being stared at
On my short stroll back to my own car, not a single vehicle was to be seen anywhere [:o]
Murphy rules, OK !!

Our first cache of 2007 and it proved to be a nice easy one.
Thanks to cfn69 for the cache.

could see it ... just had to wait for the ambulance across the road to finish what he was doing SL and moved on to the next one ... cheers
Found this one on our way back from Hervey Bay to Brisbane today.
Easy find, Mrs Steve spotted it quickly, but Steve had to retrieve it.
Thanks for the cache!

A very typical hide in a spot which makes you wonder why when there are so many interesting places to visit in Maryborough. We did happen to walk past the ultimate in letterbox laziness located nearby (it was on a pulley system so you didn't have to leave the house to retrieve the mail).
Our GPS had us park in another location, but a short walk up the street took us to GZ. Nothing special or historical about this cache, except for the imagination of cachers willing to hide little treasures. Thanks guys, we appreciate your efforts.
Found at 10:32hrs. Nothing much to give away about this cache. Clever. Great hide.

We were surprised at this location, but had fun watching and waiting for muggles. SL TFTC.
We too found this one.......exposed, but we all enjoyed looking for muggles. Exciting in a weird way! Wifee found it.
WE had located this one days ago but waited until tonight at 7pm to retrieve it. Had to wait for some foul mouthed louts on bicycles to move on but easily done.
Walked into town and passed this cache on the way. An interesting location, I felt quite exposed locating and getting the cache, but no locals came out to challenge my potentially suspicious behaviour!
Signed log, thanks for the cache.
best wishes,
Wal

Doing some work around the house. Had to slip into town to get some more paint so decided to do a couple of caches on the way. Easy find.
