I think this cache may need checking. I went back again and I know I am in the right place but it is not there. Can someone check to make sure it has not been muggled?
Visited on 6th June with kylejy101 as logged on that date, just wanted to update our full version
Had a look just before dark. I need to stop trying to rush these finds in. I ended up looking at the hint, but even after checking every gumtree in the area I still came up short.
I will try again another time.
I will try again another time.
good day for caching, wet and cold, keeps the muggles home. Couldn't sign the log as we forgot a pen and the pencil in the cache needs sharpening.
Quick find with Dash. All dry and quite a few goodies. Nothing taken and nothing left.
No idea, there seems to have been some tree trimming recently and we couldnt identify the gum tree or the bark the cache was supposedly hiding under. lots of spiders too.
Wasn't as easy as I thought. About to give up then my 9YO nephew screamed... Iiiiiiiiii Fffffound it!!!!!! To see his smile made my day. Thanks
Found with my new south welshy bestie leyn72 and geobrats chooky, lilifly and missy tee... number 4 for the day. TFTC and Thanks for the days guys...
Spotted the little treasure quickly today. Lucky coz the mozzies were ferocious!! TFTC Staunch Gang
Woo woo - number 300!!! Hmm - cache was out in the open but intact - I think I his it where it was supposed to be... TFTC!
An easy find. There was no one around and all the birds must have slept in this morning.
TFTC. The locals appear to be using a piece of garden hose as a straw for their plastic bottle.

Obstacle #1 - Three Rainbow lorikeets dipping repeatedly into a hole in a scribbly gum. I didn't want to scare them off so I took some photos and waited till they'd finished.
Obstacle #2 - The voices in my head saying "Nah, that's not it" when in fact it was.
Nice quiet spot. TFTC

Excellent camoflague on this one. Nice area - took a bit of finding. Cache in excellent condition even after all the recent rain. TFTC!
Quite a few hiding places to search as the GPS was all over the shop. The mozzies didn’t make it any easier and guess who forgot the aeroguard?
Had pretty much given the search away because of the bities when the cache suddenly appeared as if by magic. A good hide that might have been less arduous in drier weather with no mozzies.

All were around the GZ but it was Pa who found it.
Nice area shame about the blood suckers.

Uncovered the target and re-covered, but unable to sign book due to muggle activity in the area.
Good view Big Park and Heaps of mozzie on cache area... Nice hide well............thank
Found it last day of 2009 at 5pm. Geoson and Geowife retreated to car as soon as cache was found as we were eaten alive by Mozzies. Took CITO kit left water pistol. Had to get one in this part of Brisbane. TFTC
As per previous logs, we KNEW we were in the right spot but just could not find it!!! Eventually after much stamping of feet and cursing, "oh, it's right there..." . How can this be so difficult to find!?! Awesome . TFTC Staunch Gang
Brought the 2 kids on a treasure hunt but all we found were a lot of mozzies.
Found at 15:51, took lucky coins and left b1, had to dig a bit to find, lovely area didnt know this park existed till now.
found this 1 after a quick lap of the park after going to wrong tree first

A delightful detour from the main roads today.
So after crossing the nearby 'railway line' I headed into the park
Where I found meself didn't inspire confidence [:o]
There were a lot of potential hidey holes surrounding me
After some tentative poking around I finally gave up and read the clue
That didn't help for a while either [:o]
Like others before me I had looked and not seen the Goodfellows Cache.
I think I might have stepped on it a couple of times too
But like any well hidden cache, it couldn't withstand the determination to find it I can muster after riding the pushbike for over 60 kms to get to GZ

at 15:38. There must be something about this cache. We also looked in the right place without seeing it, searched a lot of other places and then found it exactly at the GPSr GZ and right where we had both looked twice.

Found the right spot, but didn't find the cache. I knew it was the right spot, because after checking several others and this one at least twice, I found the cache on the third pass [B)]. Well, as they say, "plastic boxes - they can run, but they can't hide" . TN/LN/SL.
Took a while to find this one, the coverage looked very natural and we were led to the wrong tree to begin with. Some moisture in container but nothing bad. Made sure it was sealed well before replacing. TFTC, TNLN.

took some time to find as i didnt use the hint and the GPS was lying as there loomed a huge black cloud above, had to run back to the car to get away from a flash downpour and then returned to find cache. There was a small bit of water in cache but log book is dry TFTC TN,LN,SL

I wish I'd seen that spider web before I put my face in it. Oh well, the joys of caching! Found the cache OK though. TFTC
Found with no problems. Has certainly survived the wet better than a few we have encountered in the last couple of days. TFTH
An easy find on an afternoon picking up some caches which appeared on the GPS as we were driving past. TFTC
A quick find on my way south to Brisbane with holster and thehairbear.
Thanks staunch gang.

Nice strip of green here.
The spider must have repaired it's web because I found it again today! Luckily it was more of a bounce off it than the usual entanglement.
Found the cache without drama in good condition. SL. Thanks.

Geokids headed straight to the playground while geohusband gallantly cleared away the huge spider web at the entrance to the bush so I could start the search. He headed off to play with the kids while I found the cache. Unfortunately there was an invisible spider web directly above the cache so I got a face full of web as I bent down to look. Delightful!
Glad geohusband was off playing as he probably would have hurt himself laughing!

Found after moving a bit of bark around. No one around today so a quick swap was made. In "Trollin' for Caches" geocoin, Out Diabetes TB. Thanks Staunch Gang for the cache.
Almost gave it up, but we did find it, buried DEEP!!, we saw an amazing lizard that let me stroke it before it took off into the bushes. TFTH
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga at 12:46pm. Nice walk to the cache after visiting a friend nearby. Cache not too difficult to find. TFTC
I had a bit of a stroll around and checked out what the park had to offer. Nice spot.
Found the cache dry and in good condition.
Thanks
After brekkie on a nice Sunday it was geocaching time. The Geo Knights were out to find some caches. Quick one, easy find.

Did the rounds of Petrie area this morning and this came up on the radar. Cache located easily in a nice little parkland setting.
Found it after a short search, was only just beaten to the FTF. Maybe next time. TFTC
How considerate! Day off. Another hour before I need to collect geosons from school. Less than 5km from home. The chance of a FTF was high. The only unknown factor was whether agap2 had seen the posting and was closer than I was.
Success. *FTF* at 2.18pm. It's funny. We've lived in the district for 15 years and I had no idea that park was there. TFTC.
