Description
This is Cheshire Froggy! I named him (no, her!) that, because it reminds me way too much of the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland. Just look at those teeth!
Cheshire is also one of my entrants in "Leap Frog", the moveable cache race of 2011/2012!
Unforchantly, i couldnt squeeze a log on, therefore it's a "virtual" moveable cache. There is a shape on it's base, please take note, if there's any dodgy sounding logs, i may have to question you on it :-|
Your challenge is to locate this cache, collect it, take it away and re-hide it in a different location, taking note of the new co-ordinates. Then you log the details in 2 simple steps:
First Step: Log your find with a 'Found' log - this will give you your smiley!
Second Step: Log the move with a new 'Moved' log, adding the new co-ordinates as well as something useful in the hint box. This will update the main co-ordinates and the hint for the cache listing so that it will update in GSAK and the like.
The rules are simple:
- You can "find" this cache as many times as you like (the more the merrier!) as long as the last move was by someone else.
- A move should be completed and logged with new coordinates and a hint within 2 days please.
The main idea is to keep the cache moving along so please hide it in a terrain and difficulty level that will keep it easily found. Don't forget you can find and move this cache as many times as you like!

Logs
Whoops! Late log, sorry. You will need to pick your time to reach froggy but it's an easy walk then. He is up on the flat part of the rock just on the right hand side (looking from below)just where the vegetation starts - under a group of small rocks. No need to go into any vegetation, you can walk along and up the rocks
Snaffled this cheesy guy but somehow managed to miss is cardboard mate a stone's throw up the road. Something must be screwy with my GPS loads off GSAK.
Cheshire Froggy made two frogs in a short stroll. Will move her north west.
I love this frog, sorry I've had him so long before re-hiding. It wasn't that I wanted to keep him, I just kept forgetting!
Spotted at the event while doing the rounds of the table.

This was one of many frogs bounding around the dining table during dinner tonight. I managed to grab him as he came past me and got his number. Thanks for the cache bronnie1990
Out again in a break in the cold weather, but with a few friends in case we get snow ! 
....and still SMILING !
Thanks for the cache, Bronnie_1990 !

Thanks for the cache, Bronnie_1990 !
I shared a caching trip up Mt Wellington with this frog and Mr red tag. A fantastic day was had by all 
What a smile ! No wonder, with all these mates for company !
Thanks Bronnie_1990 !
Thanks Bronnie_1990 !
As always, the trouble with the Domain is muggles. Either council muggles having a lunch break, or single middled male muggles parked.
In this case it was the former - a truck with worker and sandwiches parked less than 10m from GZ.
After several circuits, a couple of other caches grabbed, another dropped off and another search aborted by the latter problem, the coast was finally clear!
Added to my collection to spread out over the next week or two.

Will drop at the above coordinates about 8 pm on the 1st of March
Hi Bronnie
Thanks for this cache. Found it at a frorgy on Mount Nelson at 1643hrs.
When I first saw it, I understood the name very quickly.
TFTC and cheers;

At the frog party......JAB's would probably like his frog carrying conatiner back at some stage too
Found this frog and many others during a frog raid encompassing The Domain, Howrah, South Hobart and Mount Stuart.
In all, 47 frogs and a gnome were recovered and they will be placed out in the bush tomorrow. Maybe we'll take them to Cockle Creek, NO. Strathgordon or the old Hilton Hotel at Adamsfield! YES. They are good places.

Cant beleive noone went south to get the cutie frog so have relocated him back to town
Found a new home just right for frogs!
After going past a couple of caches and not realising, and finding a tower that wasn't a fire tower, we came across this fellow hiding at the bottom of a tree. He was dirty looked a bit dry so I took him to the toilets and made him presentable and hydrated again.
Will hide on the way back south somewhere

‘I joined a motley crew of explorers, eight of us in total, and we headed over the mountains to the east. Once we arrived at the top of the mountain we stopped to take in the view. I hopped away from the group to look around and when I looked up I saw the Frog wagon leaving! 
Oh no! 
I will have to wait here for another ride. I’m sure the others will say that I was too tired to continue but I really think that Bling and Jewel did not think I was pretty enough to hang around with them.’

Cheshire wanted to join the 'Frog-pedition' and gladly hopped on board the frog wagon that was heading east.....

The gleam of the teeth, let alone the pink coat, was too much in the early morning. So, Cheshire has been placed ready for another unsuspecting cacher.
What a sight to greet an unsuspecting cacher on an early morning raid to the North. Those teeth smiling at you were nearly too much to take before breakfast. TFTF
Left Cheshire in a pleasant riverside location.
I've never imagined that a Cheshire Cat would be pink. Might be of course. Could be different for Cheshire Frogs also? Anyway, a nice happy frog.
Frog alert all you frog hunters out there, there has been a mass invasion of frogs waiting to experience our beautiful country side and hopsitality. Lets all show them a good time and give them plenty to croak about - GO GET EM This is one cute frog heading North for a change of scenery Rated: for Overall Experience
What a cute happy little frog he put a smile on our faces TFTF

Dropped off this guy at the start of an epic bike ride and adventure from South Arm to Gellibrand Point and back.
I thought I'd hop down here to watch the cricket. Too much action happening over at Bellerive so this spot looked nice and quiet.
We spent over 20 minutes looking in every nook and cranny - found the permanent cache hidden there - but did not find Cheshire Froggy. Were we too late?
Dropped this off at Cradle Mountain Tasmania.
Cheshire was patiently waiting two days for a lift. Lucky I came past and stopped. Now it's off on a little trip.
