After the recent reports, thought we would check this one ... alas, it has disappeared. Will put it on hold and replace soon. Thanks for your patience.
Was taking the dogs for a walk past this park and found it was on my tippy toes the whole time
cache find #2882. Mr GT54 went in for the find, whilst MrsGT54 stayed in the shade, on such a very hot day. The cache was found quickly, and replaced as found. TFTC.
Loved the hide! All good, log mildly damp,but we did just hadve a shower of rain! Took nothing, left an unopened Woolworths dreamworks card. TFTC! Ps not a muggles in sight until I had signed and re-hidden the cache!

I was able to take a phone call when I pulled up for this one so wasn't so suspicious, as the muggle groundsman across the yard just kept on mowing. Nice find. The log book was wet enough that I couldn't use my pencil so had to go back to the car for the all weather pen ☺. Anyway, while there I put it inside a nice new zip bag.
Found it and marked the logbook. Took us a while but we did get it. Great hiding place- but watch out for the insects!
Was over visiting a friend and we passed by this cache which was close by her house.
Another quick grab and absolutely no muggles to be seen!!

Quiet Monday so a pleasant stroll from the parklands to autograph this one... its high and dry.
If the floods reach this cache we are all in serious trouble! ...TFTC

Found cache on the ground open. Everything was dry and I suspect it was more wind than a muggling. I've replaced the cache where I think it may have been originally but will send an email to check when I get home. I thought it was apt that #50 be the first to literally be waiting for me on the ground! Tftc
Nice easy one in the dark on the way home from a late night dash to the shops tftc
Working my way towards the airport one cache at a time!

Nice hide. The trees made it hard to get a lock, and the mosquito's were crazy. Was a fun trip though
Short and sweet. This one was real fun, a few muggles around, so had to pretend to be taking photos.
GPS identified GZ as around a particular tree, but no luck. Then tried again remembered a few of the previous logs.
A quick reassessment and a lift and we were on it.
Recovery of cache caused a fall but no one injured and a few laughs.
Nothing to swap. Just signed and on to the next one.
Thanks for the laugh. Xx

I was in Carindale doing a bit of shopping (luckily only one shop, one item, pheeeeew ), and wanted to score a smilie to fill the date in the calendar, this one was the obvious choice. Nearby, easy, probably only 20 mins extra to the whole trip.
Arrived at the GZ, no-one around, not even bypassing cars. The compass insisted on the rock in the park, but that couldn't host containers. Had a look a little poke around a couple of trees around, then came across a place that would be a really neat hide.
A few seconds later the container was opened. So nice to have a well maintained cache, this time with an apparently replacement container and logbook.
Business done, container returned back, and onwards to the next shop via the quickest route - with a smile on the dial, naturally. TFTC, Tiki Touring!

heading out to spend the day with my Nana
fasted had found this one so made me find it all on my own
took the straight talk coin thinking it was a geo-coin but it is just a swap
think the powers that be are trying to tell me something

Found this one when we came back from our family trip to Sunshine Coast. It was already total darkness but having visited GZ before when cache was muggled I had a pretty good idea where it might be. And sure enough there it was. Very nice hiding place and nice way to end our trip. TFTC
Dropped a new cache back into the original spot, so hopefully should be an easy find for those looking. Also dropped in a TB to continue its travels around the capitals.
After a recent DNF from my good friend oddotriin, I was a little surprised, given that it shouldn't be too hard and has been found in the last week. I took a run out to check on it and found it has been muggled - sorry. I have some spare sistemas and will replace this one shortly.
Had a quick visit and looked couple of potential places but eventually oddo jnr was getting cranky and had to leave. I'll be back!!
Out and about with fasted59 today He'd been challenged to find this CO's most recent hide which has a few DNF's on it, and I got to tag along This was our first stop and it was a good start to the day. GZ was very obvious, but we got distracted by some dead wood hanging in a funny way. Having realised it was not what we wanted, we searched a little harder and fasted went in for the find. TFTC, Tiki Touring.
Out for a day of caching with IolantheK.
This was number 1 on the list and a quick easy start for the day.

Doing the rounds of all remaining active caches to check maintenance requirements. Again, big thanks to Ms Maddy for maintaining this one very well - no maintenance required, and all looking good! Will be watching logs.
Thank you Ms Maddy for your above and beyond care for this cache during my absence. I do appreciate it immensely. I have learned a valuable lesson regarding cache ownership responsibilities. Am in the process of performing cache maintenance on all active caches.
Now that the CO is back in Brisbane, perhaps they can do maintenance on their abandoned caches or Archive them?
I completely replaced this cache and have never received a response to email sent to the CO in relation their missing, derelict or abandoned caches.
This cache is now off my Watchlist! So over COs who can't be bothered!

Oops, I found this one some weeks back but clearly forgot to log it. All was calm and peaceful and log was fine as I recall. TFTC TT.
Stopped off at a few caches on the way home from the dark side with mini munchkin. A quick hunt soon had cache to hand. Signed the log and replaced the cache as found.

Well I imagine that this is quite a nice little spot to see during the day, while for me it was a little dark and darting around a tree with a torch looking for a cache. This is officially the earliest in the day I have found a cache at about 12.05am.

As I was on my way home this seemed like a perfect find to end the day. Easy find and all is safe and dry. TFTC
After my recent foiled attempt to grab this one I have been keen to finally sort it out, and tonight was the night. No water at all today and managed to park quite close by. I legged it in with my tiny torch and made an easy find. The water here would have been over my head that day I DNF'd this one. Good thing I turned around. TFTC Tiki Touring
the road and park are flooded!
The cache should be fine as it's up high but for safety reasons I suggest you wait until the water recedes.

as Captain Terror mentions it was wet.... REALLY wet! The sportsfield was gone and i think the school should start a kayak group
Aiming for this one on such a wet day after a lot of rain was not going to end well. With Net88 and as soon as we got near the park, the road was cut and the entire park flooded. I tried to get in regardless, but the water got very deep, very quickly and I'd estimate GZ has at least 1m of water around it. Standing in an unknown depth of kinda murky water wasn't quite worth the smiley today. I'll be back when it's a bit drier.
Great hiding spot definitely high and dry. Brought along a new geocacher Gordo watching his log.
