Hidden in a spooky place that will be sure to terrify anyone who want to go find this cache.
I found this in Daddy's computer room. We want to go out tonight and rehide him somewhere nice.

A very late log. So sorry for the delay. Bingo and a trip to Queensland got in the way of doing things in a timely manner. I hope to get this cache back out tonight (depending on the weather).

Dropped off near my home, but was picked up straight away and is on the move again.
Enough of Mildura being the moveable capital of the world - time for them to move on.
Green Frog has a lovely new home. It's raining but he should still be dry. Hop down and find him.
Moved to the front of my house, for now.
Found this one on a table full of gnomes and frogs at the Adelaide Pub Lunch event.
Found amongst an amazing collection of moving Froggy freinds that hopped onto the table at today's pub lunch! The jumpers were enjoying the wintery Adelaide conditions and looking forward to finding new homes in the South. Thanks to Black Bunny for bringing them down.

Nice to see this little cache lasting beyond the frog race, many have not been so lucky. Found this little guy on a table of frogs and gnomes on a lovely caching lunch. BlackBunny had quite a few of these little critters in his swag.
Found at a table full of recent-arrival interstate amphibians at the "Pub Lunch Mon July 16 - It's Tax Time".
Dropped off to have lunch with some SA Cachers
A quick grab to take some frogs on a road trip.
Thanks for the frog.

Placed this afternoon near Long Gully Rd with his frog mate. Cheers!
Found on a nice morning. A nice easy find on a nice walk. These frogs have been here for a while, so it's time they moved on, will do so soon. Thanks Just a Cacher!

Dino and I went to get this one. The last remaining of the great frog street that was here till last week . Shame these are movable. Anyhow he looked very comfy there a great sight when you look at him first. So we left him around.
All members of the MajuraHathi parti enjoyed an afternoon stroll on Mt Ainslie. No-one around made this find relaxing and enjoyable. Dad got a fright from the six legged cache guardian who was stuck on Mr Green when grabbing him from his spot. TFTF.
Didn't move this on as it is forming a trail that was leading us into the Labyrinth. A great day up on Mt Ainslie following these and spotting various artistic endeavours.
Yet another frog. The novelty still hasn't worn off.
Traveling light, and on foot, today, so left him in place.

Green frog by name, but not unique - he's one of six green frogs sitting on my desk as I type this, along with frogs of other hues and a gnome, much to the bemusement of my colleagues.
Thanks for the froggy fun!

Hopped off on a frog trail but right into the spokes of another cacher.
Nice find today among all the Frogs, Gnomes and others over 70 participants as well as the odd human, some of them very odd indeed!
Many Frogs and Gnomes went to Canberra and who knows where from there, and many stayed to be relocated around the Sydney area very soon.

Found at an impromptu Frog and Gnome party in the Blue Mountains.
A great number of frogs, gnomes and other moveables gathered to swap tales of their life on the road.

Met up with Green again at Blackheath, at our local Blue Mountains (informal) event, attended by friends from Canberra.
Green was much appreciated and hob-knobbed with all the many other Leap Frogs.
I left him on the table to be transported by others.
Have a good trip, Green!

Spotted at the Blackheath frog party - where frogs far outnumbered the humans. TFT
'Green Frog' is ready to party with all his mates, they cannot wait to meet more old and new friends.

Green is now in beautiful downtown Lithgow!
He may not stay here very long, though.
I hear visitors are coming on the weekend.
Green arrived in Leura -- most unexpected!
But now he'll have to move on . . .
I think Lithgow will be a good choice . . .

'Green Frog' has made a short stopover in Leura to meet the local cacher. He will arrange for further travel up the mountains where all the Frogs and Gnomes will assemble for the big party Sunday!
Don't go looking for him he has gone.

'Green Frog' does not seem to be the worse for wear after the humongous party all the Frogs had, they were all very quiet as I bundled them into the back pack. Well there was no way I was going to pay for all those train tickets!

After a very enjoyable party, I sent all the frogs packing and they're waiting here for rogerw3 to arrange their next adventure

'Green Frog' went for another long train trip and is now back near the water where he wanted to be, plenty of food here (Frog food that is!)and he will be happy there but it won't be long before he wants to move on.
Old friend 'Green Frog' has come to visit, he will stay briefly (or not) at the Clwydd Hostel and decide on his future. Stay tuned!
Don't go looking for him he is in hiding and not to be found.

Great to see Green again.
He's looking well and is still very green indeed.

He'll love the current rainy weather up here in the Blue Mountains!

Moved to Leura, in the Blue Mountains.
Green Frog hopped up the road to Macdonalds to meet up with Team Canary
This was a really busy place this evening. After a long serenade, I invited a few frogs home for some tea of big fat mozzie larva. Green Frog was very keen to be in THAT plan!

Green Frog has headed down to the famous Parramatta River for a bit of a swim and a night of croaking with mates
Time to let this guy and a mate to have some fun in the wilds of Dural.
Quick pick up on the way back from Cherrybrook.

Moved this guy next to a park. He's at the base of the tree, under some bark.
Green Frog has headed down to the river and enjoying a bit of a view over all the boats coming and going today
Green Frog came back to my place after his big weekend train trip and tour of the Blue mountains and Lithgow. Where should I go next? he asked. Well, i'll have to do a bit of thinking about it.....

'Green Frog' has taken a liking to train travel and wanted to do it again so off we went back to Sydney with all his mates. Who knew Frogs liked train travel that much?
Don't go looking for him he has been taken already.

'Green Frog' found his way to Lithgow, he enjoyed the train trip very much so much so in fact that he now wants to do it again tomorrow in reverse and go back to the Big Smoke just for the fun of it. Who am I to deny any Frog yet another train trip to Sydney.
I am sure he will be welcomed by one and all (eventually!).

Green Frog spent the night here but there was a heap of excitement in the early hours of the morning as all the frogs had heard there was a train trip in the offing
I met this frog as he flashed past me at blossom*s. They were all excited to be off on a long train trip!

Yep, he's green and he was a brand new frog for yours truly.
Quite a nice one, and now slated to go out west for a while . . .
Hope he'll enjoy the Blue Mountains.

I told Green Frog that I lived near the river and he was very keen to come home with me

A pond of frogs decided to get together in Sydney for an Irish dinner. Hopped out here and decided to stay a while. In the hands of another cacher.
I put out a mini froggy fire trail, but these things don't last long these days I think someone got the jump.
I was planning on coming out to get this frog and then a frog power trail appeared and so I went out to grab it. Just as I pulled up I got an email saying that the first one was found, so I dashed up to the last one only to find it gone too. So back to my original plan to grab this cache and another. On the way home it occurred to me that the person who grabbed the power trail might have left a frog or two that they had already found and what do you know there were two. So a haul of 4 frogs isn't bad.
Placed along a walking trail I use regularly.
494. Not sure what's going on here unless there was one frog on top of another? Only spotted one and it's the one I grabbed but the map showed a different one at GZ. This one isn't a foot by any means.
