I checked today and it is definitely gone. Maybe a maintenance crew came through and removed it.
Replacing container will be difficult. It was unique and found on my driveway of all places.

Why find one when you can find three. loved the container, geomum made the find. It was a dark eerie road, and to add to that it started raining. We were able to make the find just in time and off we went. Tftc
School holidays visiting Brisbane. Nice camo, we own a similar one in Sydney. Found by geowife.
Was in the area thought I would try.
Standing at GZ I searched...will put it in my come back to

After finding a nearby cache, stortigirls and I continued along the road to this one. We parked the car and wandered to GZ. This is not the quiet country road that we had first thought. It was actually quite busy! At GZ, the cache was quickly located and the log signed. TFTC
Found it on the way home from the city and love the cache container and the placing of the cache. Very interesting and unique.
Great cache. Great find. Thanks for the cache Sup8pdct. Found January 21, 2016 @ 13:02. Cache 65 down, many more to come. Fantastic container.

Easy find but clever container. No tool needed today but I can see why you would need one, so do come equipped. TFTC
Found it. But didn't have the necessary tool to open it. So couldn't sign log. Note to geocaches: bring your tool box.
Headed out to the coast for some sightseeing, and picked up a few caches while there.
Cache was found after a short search, signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, sup8pdct, for us and others to find.

Dave and I had driven past this one a week or so ago, so tonight I was going to make it smile!
I knew it would have to be the cache the moment I spotted it... Just HOW do I get into it?
A few minutes later, I had the log in hand!
Awesome cache!

Out with Meerkat madness and theweirdone
I saw this one but needed a tool do dislodge it.

Found with the help of Charliee_bug and theweirdone. Charliee_bugs instincts were right the first time. After a trip back to the car to get a tool we quickly signed the log and were on our way.
Quick find, it didn't budge the first time I tried it which left me a bit stumped, but it just needed a bit more force, tftc

Find #1822
Another foray into the sunshine coast hinterland was on the agenda for today.
Let's see how many more smilies we can coax out of the region!
OK. For starters I'm giving a favourite point for effort & cache construction.
Well made but may I suggest next one is made to blend in a little better.
I thought this stood out a bit.
Not a criticism, hopefully some constructive feedback.
Log signed & cache replaced as found.

I'd been bugging my friend to come for a bike ride with me to Upper Caboolture so I could look for a cache out there, today she asked me to go to Officeworks with her then said we should find some of those cache things.
So I found 2 that would have been hard to get to by bike.
My friend was excited to see her first cache, she actually spotted this one before I did.

My three month Brisbane adventure has started. Day 25, Redcliffe.
I didn't do much with geocaches yesterday. I gave Mum a hand with sorting instead. Awful day it was, hot and sticky, and eventually wet. Today seems much better. I need to get to Costco today, so the GeoSchnauzers and I are heading in that direction to go caching, then I'll do the shopping. It promised to be a much better day than yesterday for caching, but we got saturated on one cache. We had almost got to it after a 150 metre walk, when the heavens opened, with no actual change heralded by said heavens. It must have been waiting to get us in the open!! We didn't knock off, though. I turned on the car's heater and did park and grabs until the rain stopped and we dried out. In the end, I reckon the dogs and I got about 4km of walking.
No 7 of 26 today. Thanks, sup8pdct. Great piece of kit!!! Have a favorite point!!

Out shopping with the littlest geotoddler and thought we would grab a couple of caches on the way home. This one was nice and easy. I went straight to it as I have seen ones like this before. Log was very full so found a tiny bit of space to sign my name. TFTC.
1:50pm Found quite easily once on right side of the road
... log full, needs replacing. Cheers!

TFTC loved it, council worker arrived as I was leaving but looks so good, it would be missed if you weren't in the know.
Very sneaky cache photo gave it away,, if you don't want a spoiler don't look at the photo TFTC
First time caching, had a blast!! This was the first tricky one I found. TFTC
Last one in an afternoon out. Grabbed it and returned it as quick as I could.
Thanks for the tour!

A quick drive by tonight. A familiar sort of hide but a different sort of container. thanks for the he cache.
Novel container. Don't let the geokids out at this one. Quick find. TFTC sup8pdct
On way to pick up tow bar so geoson and I thought that we would sneak in a cache hunt. Found a sneaky cache tftc
Found it. Nice one. TFTC. Angus the great GeoWestie assisted by grey nomad Carer Lis Brown en route Shepparton to Bundaberg.
This was almost a park 'n grab, as we had it pegged within seconds.
So now we have to scram, as there's an event a bit further up the coast
TFTC sup8pdct!

On a nice little roadtrip today from Brisbane to attend the 31 Days of Geocaching - The Last Day event at Ewan Maddock Park, with Ms Maddy and Whird.
We seem be moving faster along the side road and caching on the way then we were in the traffic on the highway. Anyway on the wrong side to start but a quick dash across the road solved this one.
Really was quite a quick find, and quite a unique container, I have never seen one like it before. Although not altogether unexpected.

I had just dropped the Geohubby off at work after our Geodaughter's "Fathers' Day Breakfast" at school. I was going to go straight home and make another attempt on a cache I DNFd yesterday, but suddenly decided to check c:geo's live map. Oh, I can grab one just on the other side of the highway! My quick detour to this cache ended up with three finds between Buchanan Rd and Uhlmann Rd, so I was quite pleased that I'd decided to check the area before leaving.
This cache was a little different from what I was expecting, since I've never seen one that looks like that before. I had (safely) pulled the car up just south of the cache on the eastern side of the road and dashed back to make the grab while Geodaughters 2 and 3 sat in the still running car. As soon as I saw it I knew it had to be the cache and was lucky that it came away quickly so I could take it back to the car for signing. The whole time I was sitting there, I was preparing myself for questions for a muggle and claiming that I'd had to pull over because the Geobaby was crying and needed a change, or something like that. [:o] Once I'd signed the logbook, I replaced the cache just as quickly and was out of there.
Thanks for the cache sup8pdct.

Out and about today on a work mission but his one was yelling at me to change to a smiley.
The hardest part was finding somewhere to pull over without getting intimate with a muggle mobile.
After a bit of fancy negotiating I got close enough so as to not look suspicious with the passing traffic. Done.
Found this little guy without too much delay. Container and contents all in good order.

Out and about with teamdfl for a Friday binge day One just for me as she had already got it. I searched in the obvious spot and found what looked out of place. Clever container. TFTC, sup8pdct.
Now that Marco and I have both secured employment, we are back to caching on weekends. So we headed out today to find a few more south of where we live. Quick find today. This was our third one today in a similar location. Interesting container. TNLNSL TFTC
I had wanted to do this one for a while..trusted the gps and found cache very quickly..tftc
Our south bond run saw us pick up Buchanan Scram, Time to Dial for a Sign and BP Twins (South Bound)
At Buchanan Scram the GPSr put us in the middle of the road so we did not stay there. We went over to one of the two obvious features. Nothing on the first or perhaps its well hidden so we thought to check the second before getting into more detail. A short search and it turned up. Certainly a different container. We completed the signing duties and re hid.
Off to Time to Dial for a Sign and it was a short walk in for a quick find in the obvious spot. A quick sign of the log and away we went again.
At BP Twin (south bound) it was good to see this ones saw just far enough away from the general muggles and still close enough for people to grab on a short stop. Our initial GZ showed up an area where many had obviously search before ( we don't really like flax grass ). We searched around for a while and could not turn up what should have been an easy find of a reasonable sized container. We extended our search in the direction of the cache name and then found it about 6m away from where we had been looking. We took the travel bug and re hid after signing the log.
