Too much recent damage to this park so will leave the place open for someone else.
Thanks to all that visited.

Cheers Konie,
The spots where I thought it would be looked like they have been damaged. I anticipate the return of this one because it comes up on my search screen repeatedly.

Checked this one this morning and it's been muggled. Looks like the whole place has been party central.
Will replace it soon.

Looked high and low in all the obvious and non-obvious spots, and didn't find it. Will monitor how others go here.
Out for a spot of caching on this fine winters day. Half expected a more difficult hide, being a Konie cache. Quite a nice little place with a view, which is a bonus. If you look past the trees, and power lines, you can see the ocean

We spent the afternoon at the Train Park just down the road a little, having a lovely time with friends. On the way home, we stopped off to grab this cache. A nice, quick find.
Navigated and found by SP (kid #4).
Thanks Konie. #254

a very nice park the view is lovely would never have stopped here if not for caching.....no muggles around today...tftc
Lonely was just what we wanted. Way too many muggles around these parts making caching that much harder. No problems here. Thanks Konie for placing this cache.

We decided to head out today and do some caching in between the rain showers. We had to wait in the car for a while until there was a break in the rain. Once it stopped we were able to make a quick find thanks to the hint. TNLNSL TFTC
TFTC, out and about with the 4 travelling buds team and 2 newbies we are introducing to the game. quick easy find by sue of the travelling buds team. tnlnsl
tftc, quick easy find by sue. out caching with kezza from the mickezza team. also took along wendy and brianna who we are introducing to the game. tnlnsl
Took all the kids and hubby and got them all involved, only using the gps on the phone and cloud cover throwing us about but 10 minutes and hubby had found it and keen to do the next one
I guess the cache container is almost as old as the cache owner eh! Three generations of geocacher is not a bad effort; even for this young fella. Thanks mate
Last one for the day, found quickly. Had a laugh when the geokids asked what a film canister was. Made me feel old. Not many locations this close to the heart of Nambour with a view of the ocean. TFTC TNLN
Took us a few tries to find this, but got it in the end. Clue was a bit hard to figure out though. Nice hide!
It's a bit hard to be discreet with 8 junior GEO's all very excited about their very first cache find! But I think we pulled it off!!
Was up visiting a rello in the nearby hospital with geoson, brownsnakemob and BSMJ. Once we were happy he was ok, what else do we do in an area where there are unfound geocaches???
Parked nearby, and made our way to gz, and spotted the logical spot from the distance. Yep, sure enough, found the cache.
All good with the cache, thanks Konie.

After searching a few meeting points, came across the right one and soon had cache in hand. TFTC
This is a nice little park and a great start to my Point Glorious adventure. Lots of vehicles park in the streets here for the hospital but I found a spot right near GZ and found with maximum stealth! TFTC
Quick stop on way home after some appointments, had to drive past twice before I realised where the park was - have never really noticed it before. Brought a book with me as a decoy in case people were watching, but only a few people down in the street. No sign of anyone in or looking at the park. Nice specific clue and a very sus rock and there it is. Leisurely signed the log while admiring the view.
Our one and only find while visiting my brother in Nambour Hospital, would have loved to look for more but not having a car makes it very difficult with Nambour's hilly terrain. A nice easy fine and enjoyed the spot once we got there. Greetings from Melton Victoria. Sorry we've been late logging this but not long got back to cold Victoria.

The 1st one found in a series we planned for a lovely sunday cache hunt. not too difficult and found fairly fast.
@ 11.15am
It was a quiet park today, no one about. I sat on the wall and let my hand feel for the prize. I very quickly had the beast in hand, signed the log and returned him to his hidey place.
All nice and dry.

Found however the cashe is full of water paper destroyed, still claiming our number 3
the cache was soaked inside.. it may be worth changing the container for a more watertight unit. nonetheless, its a find all the same..signed another dry bit of paper as the original log was un useable TFTC!!!
Arrived at GZ and thought, “I’ve been here” [?]. Now, did I forget to log it online? My name wasn’t in the cache, but then, the log’s been replaced at some time. Perhaps I had a DNF and didn’t log that? I’m sure I can remember sitting on those steps signing something. Hmmm, perhaps ‘Konie’ is messing with my mind. Perhaps I’m just a forgetful old geocacher . Oh well, it’s signed now and here’s the online log.
Found in the rain .Took back to sign log
Ashame prev. logger did not do the same as log was wet
Took Geo Coin -Kris's Gift for a visit

The Kalmlittleexplorers had a big camping trip planned for this long weekend, but the weather put an end to that and today we found ourselves at a loose end. With the weather not great for the beach we decided that a drive in the country and some caching was in order.
Heading down from the hinterland we stopped in here. Didn't see any muggles but someone was cooking a very nice smelling BBQ nearby!!
cache was located easily.
TFTC Konie!!

In town for a 21st tonight, we decided to grab a couple of caches. Drive up hill and our luck held as there did not appear to be an muggles keeping an eye out. Nice quick search and we headed back down town. TFTC
During a daytour around Palmwoods we tried to find
as many caches as possible, with help of our Australian cousins
Pat and John. The day score was 14, this was nr.13 at 17.05 pm.
TFTC and greetings from Holland.

Nice quick find today, quite hot up on the hill considering the weather. No muggles to be seen, so sat down, grabbed cache, signed and replaced quite easily and quickly and on my way. Have a family friend whom Im pretty sure lives in the house on the hill, was waiting for someone to yell out but no luck. Thanks for the cache. All good in this wet weather.
Wandering the local streets on a metrogaine whipped the GPS out briefly to make the find! TFTC
We were so lucky with this one for parking, we needed to place a motorhome and trailer and right at the sight, near enough, there were four parking parking spaces going begging. Our lord was helping us, of that I am sure. SL TFTC
Nice little park...Ms Bushies2 found it easily...no muggles around. Thanks Konie.
As per my log - could the next finder (in dry weather) place a new log sheet in the container and do a little dry out.
Lonely or top spot? The log is this cache is unusable and unfortunately it was raining cats and dogs when I found the cache so I could do little to correct the situation.
Time for a little TLC

Wet wet wet, Not only the name of a band but also the condition of this log book. TFTC
Found by Sunshine Toledo at 1:45pm. The log is very wet and hard to write on. Not a muggle about today. Great views.. TFTC.
Found the cache easily. There was water inside. Dried it up as best we could. Added paper for log.
Drip drip it was raining when we found it. We also droped of a small find for the next person. With the rain only 2 of us wanted to get out. TFTC
With gps in hand geo hubby set of in search of cache while I kept an eye out for moggles at house on the hill
No show today perhaps too wet for them to be out admiring the view

Out and about on a cache raid of the Sunshine Coast. Easy find with the help of the hint T4TC.
Seems the guardian in the muggle house has a weekday job. Nice, easy find on a Monday morning. TFTC
Luckily, the overlooking house muggles were busy working on their car and took no notice of us. TFTC and TNLN
Found this one today while in the nambour area for a while. (my town of birth) SL TFTC
