Logs
When the cache is ready to be activated again the owner can place an 'unarchived' log and it will go live.
A quiet swamp life to follow.
Looks like it's not going back out.
JABs.
Fair enough I suppose as he must have run out of gnomes up there.
I couldnt pass up the chance to find him
Needed a drive to relax and to find some caches.
Anne and I left Huonville about 1030hrs this morning to go to New Norfolk first and then on to Interlaken cache hunting.
On the way we visited the news print mill at Boyer, by-passed bush fire on the way to Bothwell and noticed how much the scenery had changed in the many years it had been since I travelled the road from Bothwell to Lake Sorell.
Arrived at Dago Point and gave Anne a quick tour of the camp grounds and the huts. Then on to search for this cache, one so far out of the way from the main stream of caching that it was time for retrieval. Now that I found it, others won't have to go there to look for him and I think that's fair!.
Found and logged the little blighter at 1437hrs.
From here onto Rabbit Hut, hopefully for another find.
Upon our arrival back in Hobart, we went to the event "Haunting Lives" where the "Bones of Gnomes" was put on the table.
Just arrived home and am now logging my find and the little frog can have a night in the warm instead of being out in the cold at the lake.
TFTC, the great drive and the thrill of the find
Cheers OldSaint.
Currently ensconced under a pile of rocks, beneath a concrete water tank. Hopefully no gnomes will venture near, with or without Thunder Child!
The risk was definitely worth it. What a great frog! Love the story.
Thanks for the frog and we'll get him (her?) back out there promptly.
Will move to east.
Frogs in Callum Brae....who'd a thought
TFTC !!
Neat looking frog, thanks for the addition.
Thanks for the froggie fun.
Shame I can't keep this frog, it would look brilliant on my desk at work. ah well, must settle for showing it off for just a few hours this afternoon before finding somewhere for him to hop off.

How frustration...
