Good Day,

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Nope. Nup. Nada. No cache found today I'm afraid.

Hmmmm

We came upon your cache, lochb, while spending a day geocaching around Gympie.

Sadly we could not locate a cache here.

Visited at 11:50 am on 2 January 2018. TFTC.

No Luck here today.

Went to the Queensland for 10 day's, landing on the Goldcoast, picking up a car rental. We spent the first 4 days staying in a nice hotel in Surfers paradise, doing all the Theme parks and some caching... While at the theme parks we got to pat Dolphins, feed Tigers etc. Then we headed up to Australia Zoo, where we booked a Tiger wall, Which was amazing, after the day at the zoo, we headed to Harvey bay, for 4 day's before heading back to the Goldcoast to return car, and catch flight home. Really loved the new Lego store at Dreamworld, went back 3 times.Tftc

Easy find sharpened pencil provided

Found fast. Great hoding spot.

Saturday cache. TFTC TNLN

One more beautiful but hot day during my vacation in Australia . This morning I spotted a cockatoo on my balcony and some kangaroos in the forest , afterwards I searched for some caches and went to the beach . Life can be hard :-p

This cache I found quite fast Thanks a lot for the cache and all the best from Switzerland

Thought it might have gotten moved
Because the wood works got an upgrade a while ago

Fun find happy Easter from the williamsgirls 2017/04/16

Tftc - very easy find.

Parked up near GZ and wandered over for a nice easy find. Shame we didn't have time to go round the complex but loved the gates. TFTC lochb

Found by Mr 6 again despite the heat. 39 degrees according to the car.

Thank you

Another trip sth find

This has been on radar for some time as I travel thus highway frequently. Tftc

Rhobocacher and I were the only ones who hadn't yet got a smiley for this one so we quickly rectified that. Luckily the place was closed otherwise we would have difficulty dodging muggles to get it. If it hadn't been a caching run I would have liked to have seen more of the Wood-works as it looked quite interesting. Pause for a moment to look at the big gates on the side of the place, they are quite impressive. TFTC lochb xxx

Out with wombles and co at the 2017 cacheup with the newbies event for a weekend of fun camping and of course caching we joined up with Echocage1 and Dutchie 1950. Wow what a beautiful place and gate and sculpture out the front and also a quick find thank goodness it was a day with no one around TFTC

By the time I reached this cache I had missed the crazy spider shenanigans Thanks goes to wombles and 1MinnieMoo for the arachnid relocation. After leaving our marks the cache was replaced as found.

Thanks for the cache lochb

After a fun weekend away at rainbow beach, we went to this cache a little out of our way as I need it for a date for my hidden date chart.
Cache was a quick easy find and came with a big huntsman spider attached as a bonus!

Almost put hand on huntsman on bottom of this cache as I took it from Wombles and Co - oops! Tapped him safely onto the ground (yes I managed to show such awesome restraint and neither scream nor throw the cache), before signing the log and returning the cache to it's hide. Thanks for the cache lochb.

Tuesday. Slow Puncture ventured out with Orange Crew very early this morning with a nearby thunderstorm for company. We had 3 specific caches in mind (one of which was a long way away).

Having nabbed the far away cache, we were now on our way back. This was the last specific cahe we were after. We pulled off the highway and by the time we got here, the establishment was closed, which made things easier. At GZ, the location of the hide was evident, particularly the cache name.

This was the 9th of 9 caches found on today's trip.

Thanks ***lochb***, for showing us this place. This filled in a missing month in the Jasmer Challenge for both of us

On a massive road trip with Slow Puncture to grab an unfound Earthcache on Monduran. On the return home we stopped regularly to sample some of the fine caches along the way. This was a quick find at GZ, the camo was appropriate and the museum here is fabulous!

Believe it or not, with 3000+ finds, I've never found a single one placed in the same month and year as this one!!! Nice to fill a hole that used to sit right in the middle of my found month grid .

This cache is in good condition, and makes smilie #3054. Thanks **lochb** for showing us this spot. Feel free to discover our trackable TGQNRV .

TFTC!

Travelling around Australia and currently housesitting in Curra, Queensland.

Ducked into Gympie on some shopping and grabbed a few caches along the way to town.

Thanks lochb

Quick find. Cache dry and in good condition. Thanks

Nice easy find after a pleasant chat to a fellow geocacher.

I drive to and from Bundaberg. A lot. My car GPS has caches on it, so as I drive ... I can see all the smilies I've previously found - and all those annoying little green boxes. Like this one. Almost right next to the road, and yet I have not had the chance to stop this year. Today I am blitzing Gympie to Gunalda, along the highway, to rectify this issue. Quick find at GZ. And another hello to our visiting guest-cacher from England, Netherman.

Thanks for placing this cache, lochb. Found in good condition.

Swapped a pancake for a keyring. Easy find

On my holiday trip I searched a few caches, but could not find all.
This was one of the caches which I could find.

#41 This was a tough one. As I had an older version of the cache description saved on my phone we did not have the hint. We were at it for nearly 30 minutes before Geomum found it to our surprise.
The coordinates appear to be slightly off according to the phone GPS but it could just be an inaccurate GPS or GPS bounce.
The museum looks like an interesting place and I would love to investigate one time when it is open. TFTC

After spending a lovely night just around the corner from here, we stopped here as a way to begin our day. We were surprised that on a Sunday not another soul was around. Today we had to use the clue to help us find this Cache. The Cache was found to be safe and dry.

After signing the log book we hit the road for the drive to Brisbane for Fathers Day lunch.

Many thanks lochb for this Cache.

Out this way so decide to found the cache hidden at the museum. TFTC

Nice quick find by mrs oz. thanks for placing this cache. tnln sl

Quick stop and grab while driving from Townsville to Brisbane to visit family.

Took nothing and left nothing. Log signed. Cache and log found to be in good condition.

There was no TB's to be found in the cache.

Finding this cache has now given me a total find count of 1504.

Thanks for the cache hide ****lochb***** .

A bit disappointed that some GCers do not understand how travel bugs work. Current inventory is 2 and I was looking forward to dropping some I have off here, but when I got there the cupboard was bare ... I'll let the dog off his leash somewhere else ...

Found it on our way home from
A trip out west. A fun and easy find to stop along the way to stretch our legs and have a rest. TFTC.

Found with d_stew good find. Few muggles but went undetected! Kick ass museum!

GeoBikerBabe and d_stew were here. Nice hide.
