Not replacing

Will check it out.

Well DNF again for me. I hunted again but still could not find it. Thinking I must be seriously cache blind, I bought back a previous finder with me. Alas they could not find it either. It must be noted that the area around GZ has been substantially and recently cleared of a lot of foliage.

TFTC, this one eluded us today

Searched and searched but to no avail.

Oh well at least i got to break in my new hiking shoes. Oboz, doing well so far!

Searched and searched for ages but to no avail.

I do believe Woodrow007 should look a bit more before he posts a note......

I believe that this one is now in the wind. Needs replacing or refinding

Ok the garden has been all cleaned up. More importantly the trees in the garden have all had their leaves pruned back quite harshly. We saw quite a few spots where we thought the cache should have been sitting quite nicely. But could not locate the cache.

Had a good search around without success. Some gardening has been going on around GZ so maybe.....

Nice location quick find TFTC SL

Quick grab and off on my bike again. TFTC

#5 and last find of the day. Quick easy find. Found with RollaB. TFTC.

Quick easy find TFTC

Quick find while on the way home. Thanks.

Had good look but no luck not even sure if we were looking in the correct spot cheers

Think you better a bit harder......it's definatly there it not even covered

Tried again.. for a 3rd time.. still nothing. This definitely needs some owner intervention. Thanks.

Found GZ OK but the cache could not be located. Makes it a bit hard to locate "Creekside Reserve" without the co-ordinates.

Looked again.. same deal... Nada Dodging kids on the way to school was even more fun. Could the Owner possibly check it out? TFTH.

No dice for me today - one of the few DNFs I had in the area. I read the previous logs and was sure I was at the right place. No matter how much I scratched around I could not come up witth a cache today. TFTH The Lost Bunch.

Model Sailboats were out in force today, what a great sight. TFTC

Found using the hint as I initially thought it might be on the opposite side of the bushes to where it was which would have made it very tricky indeed! Forgot to note the clue but still missing a few in the series so we may grab it next time. Thanks The Lost Bunch

Easy find on a great day out on the sunshine coast! Thanks for the hide.

Could not have timed this any better. Got to see the boats sailing around. TFTH

We found this one excactly where the gps and the last logger said it was. Thanks The Lost Bunch

Found by following mentions of incorrect coordinates in previous logs. There is a tree that matches the coordinates, so we've moved the cache there. TFTCSL.

Got to GZ, read the hint, then realised this thing could be anywhere...and with the model sailing club out on the water I couldn't search too deeply. Also didn't have enough prior logs handy to help with the hiding spot. If the coords are really 25m out then they need to be fixed.

Found this one after reading previous logs. My GPS put it around 25metres away from GZ. TNLN SL TFTC

Tricky find due to busy road & sailors.

Clues and images helped.

Got it this time

what's the deal with the coordinates? I'll look again based on other logs instead.

Had to use other logs to find....

Found three of series. One to go. Looking foward.

I'm glad I had read the previous logs, as it was under the "wrong" pandanus for me too. Once I headed down that way, though, it wasn't too long before the cache was found. A bit of broken glass in the area made extraction slightly trickier, and forgetting the clue and having to go back for it just as the rain started made me slightly grumpy, but the park was worth a look. No boats today, only a small dog swimming around. TFTC ='.'=

GPS put us at the wrong location and we spent ages searching the wrong pandanus.. As we were about to give up we checked a couple about 10-15m away and there is was. BINGO ! ! The sailing boats were out and racing arounf the lagoon.. TFTC..

Found with the Pride of Ogres.TNLN/SL/TFTC

The Pride was without Ma Ogre today so off we went to the Sunshine Coast for a caching morning.
This was the 6th of 10 that we hit 4 of which were before 0900.
Had a little trouble with this one as the co-ords on the old GPS put us 20m away from where we should have been.
Cache OK.
Thanks for taking us there.

Another strick from Black Ops.
Been wanting to come up this way for a while now.
Thank you for bringing me here nice area to sit and watch the boats go by.
cache all OK
NTLN not even foot prints
TFTC

No luck for me, even had a previous finder helping me in my search.

very easy find found it straight away so covered it a bit more. TFTC

found it while holiday here from brisbane
thanks for the cache and hunting

An hour ago at another cache by a canal it looked like my "Sunshine Coast" caching day was going to come to a sodden end
Yes, dear reader !! Yours truly was once again touring this inappropriately named part of Queensland
But after racing a storm back to the geomobile on foot at one cache and hiding under a tree for a full 20 minutes to avoid a downpour at the next cache I was happy to see that the rains had not actually set in for the afternoon and had now reduced to almost a drizzle
Cache on !!
I had a refreshing stroll across the open ground between the car yard and GZ with the wet breeze in me face and quickly sought shelter behind the only thing at GZ capable of providing any
Ooops !!
My bumping into things created my own personalised downpour of droplets from the leaves above [:o)]
Maybe I'll just stand around in the wind and drizzle looking for the cache instead [B)]
There seemed a logical place to look and lo and behold there was the cache
Smooth sailing from now on [^]

Oh!! I forgot to pick up the clue
I seem to be doing this series the wrong way round

Nice quick find and then over to see the model sail boats all 6 of them competing in a race. It was quite nice to see.

Near a very busy road. Snuck in and grabbed the cache. Lake would be lovely if the boats are out. TFTC

Found right on dusk and needed my torch. TFTC

Found by Dad this one . Dan had a real good look at the other "obvious" hiding spots. Without the hint we toughed it out and eventually it all came clear. Nice hide Lost Bunch.

Nice easy find for first thing in the morning.

found today as part of the creekside multi
tftc

Found this one on a week of caching at the Sunshine Coast. A nice area. We parked not far from the "Start Line" cache instead of on the main road. A quick walk to GZ and an easy find. TNLNSL TFTC

5/10/2009 10:53 Found: H found this while P was investigating the wrong side of GZ. What seems to be an empty cycle track has plenty of foot traffic. We both had to brush plenty of ants off B before jumping back into the car. TFTC.

Lovely spot. Lots of wood ducks. Only one stand up surfer on the flat water.

#814. Quick find en route to Sunshine Plaza. TFTC.

We now recognise typical Aussie hides, so a quick find.
TFTC.

The ships were sailing and made a very tranquil scene while the highway traffic roared close by. TFTC

I'm sure i looed here last time, I'm sure, I'msure but then Sunny coast caches one can never be sure as there just seem to blend into the sand

Found it, but didn't see the clue, for the Creekside Reserve, will have to revisit next holiday, to complete this series TFTC

Easy find. Had a windy lunch and watched the yachts.

Thanks to geoNana we had a childfree weekend to spend in Noosa. This was our 4th find on the way. Fortunately there was nobody sailing so we could search with ease. It would have been good to watch though. Thanks The Lost Bunch.

I was on my way to Kanawa Lawn Bowls to pick up my dad and stopped by here. My PDA had been updated on the 12th so I was a little surprised to see a blank log. TFTC! 20

Log replaced

Out today with Mrs Lat&Long on a mission to track down 'Creekside Reserve'. This was our second in the series. Found pretty easily. No muggles to worry us. TN/LN/SL and grabbed the clue.

Found easily with Geo-husband. No sail boats today. TFTC

Had to wait 20 minutes for two muggles and their dogs to leave the scene. When they did it was under the bush and gotcha.
However we noticed that the log is for an entirely different cache some 30km away. There are 10 or 12 other signatures on the log but no-one seems to have noticed the problem or advised the owner.
Have emailed The Lost Bunch with the details.

Found it at 12 noon, sat and watch the old's sailing Boats and ate peaceful lunch, just far away enough from the busy road in this park, Thanks for bringing me here _TheLostBunch

Well, well, this cache mussed up my hair! Quick find, if a tad uncomfy. Log claims to be for another cache ...? TFTC The Lost Bunch.

Found it with Two Rangers

Great spot, have been here many times before. Easy cache.
TFTC,
The Two Rangers

Stopped and looked twice - given the general caching activity in all nearby caches I suspect others have also called in for a look and not logged.

Could be worht checking?

Got lucky on Australia Day - found cache and saw model sailing boats. Like the fourbees, I noted log book is for "Quiet Eudlo". SL and recorded numbers. TFTC

Got lucky here and found cache straight away. It has stash note from "QUIET EUDLO" in it. Noted clue and headed off. TFTC

Dropped off new log

Nice spot, easy find

Tftc

Found OK. Not a soul in sight. TFTC.
Log is full and needs replacing.

Nice easy find, thought it about time I finished these ones.
TFTC
The Olly's

Found the cache at 8.20am. Lovely lake. SL. Thanks The Lost Bunch for organising the cache and hunt.

Only a few ducks around, nice location just off the hwy.

Quick and easy find on the road TFTC

We had to dodge the kids walking home from school. Fortunately the cache was easily found and we didn't look too suspicious.

Mrs Agogo and friends looking in the dark meant no muggles but tricky once at GZ and not sure about the risk of local wildlife. Think we have some more converts to this crazy sport.

On a quick dash up Nicklin Way couldn't resist a quick cache.
Used TOMTOM to get car close and sent my son out armed with the trusty Garmin. As I expected the caching radar (my son) found it pretty quickly.
I sometimes think geocaching is a pretty odd hobby but I think grown men playing with model sailing boats is stranger.
TFTC

Found 0833 With Marg. A quick find at a pleasant park. Cache OK.

11:54 Found after a short search and knocking my head on the pandanus tree. Tftc.

Found with Dad while working in the area.

Found Ok

Found by Team Ladava 410.30 am on a extended weekend clean up of the Caloundra caches while visiting from Melbourne to attend a relatives 70th birthday.
Found after a short search.
TNLN
Our thanks to The Lost Bunch for the cache.

Very quick find. TFTC

Find 9 of 12 on a morning of caching with kholometers while camping in the area. Found immediately, which was a welcome relief after the amount of time we'd spent on the previous cache - TNLN, TFTC.

WanderingAus wandered by on day ninety-four of a 6 month trip Wandering Australia and made an easy find without reading the cache notes, so I didn't know to get the clue for the multi. I didn't hunt down Aroona Parklands anyway, so I guess I'll have to find all four when I pass this way again (next year or the year after).

My find No 782, TNLNSL.

Keith

5th find for the day with Dannza 20th for the weekend. TNLN TFTC

Straddie Heaven and I needed this find as we had not found the last two that we tried. This one lifted our spirits again off we go to lunch and onwards.TFTC

Yep, ADV and I now know a new sort of tree - dont get those in NZ. Thanks for the tree lesson - grabbed a photo, moved on.

TFTC

Found without the clue but pleased I checked the clue afterward because now I know what that is. Something new to us visitors to Australia.
Enjoyed the find, many thanks.

0569 re-logging due to name change

569 Nice of the council to put a geo-carpark right beside the cache. TFTC The Lost Bunch

Found it ... easy find ... TNLN

Found quite quickly with the geokid and geodog. Not too many muggles around today. Thanks for the cache.
