As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

I wish I had read previous logs before wasting time. Maybe the owners could confirm if this one still exists.

02-Oct-10
This was cache # 6 of 19 for the day, on a rather wet day out caching. I had tried this a little earlier in the day but found a group doing exercises in the shelter, I returned and soon had this one in hand. My thanks to AmbulareSimia & Loupyloo for the cache.

17-Aug-10
Got to GZ and the GPS took me right to the cache. Only thing was I thought better of this and looked in a few other places before deciding to check where the cache was pointing!
 
13-Aug-10
Last cache for the night - the cache was found easily in its little hidey hole. Not the right time of year to see the jacarandas in bloom but the park looks like it would be a great place for the local community to celebrate. TFTC AmbulareSimia & Loupylou

17-May-10
Wobbling around the northside on me pushbike this morning I found meself under the jacarandas Smile
No flowers to be seen at this time of the year Sad
A bit of searching later and there were no caches to be seen at this time of year [:o]
Retiring to the opera house I brought out the cache notes for some perusal.
Well that explained the lack of a cache where I was looking Red Face
I did eventually find the Old Northern cache near the jacarandas Big Grin

TFTC.
 
09-May-10
The longest part of this search was crossing the road! Another fun cache on a beautiful Mother's Day caching morning! Cache is in good condition. TFTC.
 
05-May-10
Touring the area with Loki as my navigator, we pulled up to this one to find the park and the gazebo empty... [^] Having found this one before, Loki was happy to sit back and watch me hunt for a while. After a few minutes however, she joined in and looked directly into GZ, before moving on having not spotted the container. I scoured other areas and eventually moved over to where Loki had looked before... Hey, there it is... Big Grin Seems cache blindness syndrome may be contageous... Surprised In her defence though, I am sure I have caught the disease on numerous occasions myself... Wink

Cheers AmbulareSimia.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga 2 at 12:19pm. This is the 2nd time we have been to find this cache and I went back to the same place to look and couldn't find it again so went elsewhere to search but then came back to the same spot and there it was. How could I miss it twice? Anyway... TFTC
 
26-Apr-10
Couldn't find this one. An old man had stopped in the park for a rest, so took a while before we couldn't find it. Geoson was more interested in the horses. TFTC.
 
19-Apr-10

17-Apr-10

Kms for my TB Shirt recording all Caches I have been to.
 
11-Apr-10
found GZ quickly but scoured around trying to figure out what trees were what looked over cache a few times before finally coming up with the goods.
TFTC
 
11-Apr-10
Searched around GZ GPSr had us right on the spot still no cache.
Are those jacarandas???? what about those???? widened the search area to a great distance and kept looking caches like these can be so hard at night Hmmmmmm Maybe I should look at the hint??
Well that didnt help I dont know which trees are jacaranda trees.
Well went back to the GZ according to the GPSr and searched some more and both Angry Lotus and I were searching the same place when "eyes on the prize"
This one is a good place for one of my new evils
TFTC
T: nothing

11-Apr-10
Easy find but it was a shame to see such a nice little park in such a mess, there was rubbish everywhere and unfortunately the bins were overflowing. TFTC
 
10-Apr-10
It was quite hard to find but Dad finally spotted it. Dropped off the Birthday Ladybird (4KC0R6) trackable item. After we signed the log book I had a quick play on the swings. Smile
 
10-Apr-10
Decided to check this cache out with Madstar20. I was able to narrow the search area down to about 5m x 5m with my iPhone. Spent about 30 minutes searching until I eventually discovered it. Nicely camouflaged cache. Thanks for taking us to this park.
 
08-Apr-10
The satellites must have been in the wrong places today as the GPS would not settle with a 20m variation.

I searched many hiding spots with no luck.

Adding to my watch list.
 
06-Apr-10
Nice easy find. Where are all of the Jacarandas in Jacaranda Park? Could only see 5 or 6 and none of them could be called old.
TFTC

Nice easy find with Radnoski. Nice park. TFTC! Smile
 
14-Mar-10
Found this one with Fangsoki. On the way to the cache we saw something purple and metallic sitting on the concrete area. On closer inspection we found a smashed up Apple iMac. (this wasn't the cache by the way) The poor old thing had seen better days.

TFTC. Took nothing. Left a purple whale.

 
28-Feb-10
Finally found it!!!!!
 
27-Feb-10
It took me a long time to find this one - the cache was found pretty well in the last place I looked - I fear that it might struggle to survive either 'Clean Up Australia' or 'local gardener' campaigns. Lovely little park though, cheers
 
27-Feb-10
Geo-mum found first and pointed micro-master in the right direction. Gotta give credit to the GPS on a very cloudy day for taking us to the right spot. Second of five today. TFTC (did a little CITO)
 
27-Feb-10
Around 3.00pm on a drizzling Saturday is a good time - else there'd be plenty of folk about. Nice little hide, good camo paint job. TNLN, SL. Thanks.
 
24-Feb-10
How I ever missed this the first time I don't know, I swear I looked there! Smile TFTC
 
23-Feb-10
Nice little park, close to busy road, that has gone unnoticed until this cache was placed. Thanks for bringing us here.
 
23-Feb-10
Found with geonanna, I was distracted with some other thing, and nanna was quick to pounce on this one TFTC
 
17-Feb-10
DNF from us today. Not where we looked.

23-Jan-10
What is that old caching line. Yes that is it " Found it in the first place I looked"

Unfortunately for me it was not the first time I looked there.Red Face The simple nature of the hide can catch you off guard if your looking for something more sinister.Big Grin
 
21-Jan-10
Found it nicely
tftc
 
19-Jan-10
Found at 0817. This was my 2nd trip to this cache. tried Sun, but a couple had decided to set up camp right next to the cache. They were gone today. TFTC
 
19-Jan-10
at 14:18. Found easly in good condition. TFTC AmbulareSimia & Loupyloo. Took Unite for Diabetes Travel Bug.
 
17-Jan-10
Had to wait for a teenage muggle to leave before we could search for this one. And search. And search. Although Pagan had said "I bet it's there" we still needed to look there multiple times + everywhere else before finally grabbing this one! TFTC AmbulareSimia. L TB
 
16-Jan-10
Found the cache, after quite a search. Well, it was kinda early and I wasn't awake - that's my excuse. Grabbed the "Sumatran Elephant" geocoin, signed the log and also found Mrs Lat&Long a cool pair of sunnies. Probably from someone leaving the nearby pub last night.
 
14-Jan-10
Dropped in Geocoin.

Cache is in good condition.
SL. Thanks.
 
13-Jan-10
Twelfth find of 13 caches today. Nice little park here. GPS lead all over the place, but I got it in the end.
TFTC
 
08-Jan-10
We couldn't do the cache in the afternoon because of muggles so we did it at night.
 
08-Jan-10
Spotted by The Marble whilst I was heading in the wrong direction. Great community facility here. TFTC
 
08-Jan-10
Decided to tag along with DisSister, La Kedi and JustEmmy and was lucky enough to be the one to find this. Hadn't used my torch in a very long time so was glad the batteries hadn't gone flat. TFTC
 
08-Jan-10
Found on a nighttime dash up with the family, looks like a great park for a performance. TFTC ='.'=
 
06-Jan-10
Must have had a bad case of cache blindness for this one, but perseverance paid off with another smiley. A nice little park, I will ahve to come around at christmas time.

TFTC Smile
 
04-Jan-10
This area really looks good when all the flowers are in bloom. Tracked this one down no problem. TFTC.
 
03-Jan-10
First time we all slept in in a long while. So it was a surprise to see this one pop up so close to home.
So as not to wake any one else in the cave up and a slight hangover the quite cry of 'To the Ogre mobile' went out to Ogre No:4.
A quick search of the GZ resulted in the little bugger finding yet another *FTF* for the Ogres at 0730.
Was only yesterday as I was driving past with a muggle mate that I say to him 'I'm going to put a cache there.
TNLN Thank you very much for this one.
 
03-Jan-10
Found at 0800 but again i've been beaten to the prize.
Oh well thats part of the hunt.
Great spot.
Cache all OK
TNLN not even foot prints.
TFTC
 
03-Jan-10
Tried to get out "early" to get a FTF under our belt. But by the time the geokids and I were ready, we had missed our chance being beaten to the prize by both the Band of Ogres and Black Ops. Logged the cache at 0830. Was a nice reason to get the kids out to explore Albany Creek. Took nothing, left nothing. TFTC!
 
03-Jan-10

If mad dogs and english men go out in the midday sun.....then what fits with a cacher who goes out at night in the pouring rain?

Found the cache (internally dry and in good condition) without any problems. Signing the log with foggy glasses was interesting Smile

Thanks Smile

ps...it seemed only fair that if you were out finding mine I should be out finding yours Smile
