Free at last! Cannon Hill, Queensland, Australia
By geckomaster62 on 23-May-10. Waypoint GC291JR

The school is expanding , and building is about to commence. Time to Archive. Thanks to all who have found.

On the climb towards my next major milestone I needed a few caches along the way and time was running out. This area was where I ended up waiting for my ride to finish work. Found in the obvious spot pretty quickly. All quiet on all fronts. All good.
Thanks for placing this cache, geckomaster62. Found in good condition but the logbook is awefully chockers.

{Overall find #1993}

Eventually found this with the co-ords a little out. Almost out of reach when I did find it. The logs a lil full but I squeezed a sign in, TFTC

C Sister got her hands on it first. Great hide. Log is full. TFTC

TFTC. Log is full. GZ was a few metres off the cache so I should have gone with instinct to start with.

TFTC log full

Easy find but great camo and hide

Found with family and friends.

A quick find while out with TriBre, DaisyLexie and Jelly_Fish. Quick find by DaisyLexie.

Found during a day of rainy caching with Captain Terror. I got out of the car without my umbrella as the rain had slowed down to a drizzle and as i got to GZ i saw the cache straight away. The log is still in surprisingly good condition considering the cache's lid isn't attached. Thanks for the cache geckomaster62

The description had me a little confused here. Not sure which clock or bell I was watching, but I sure don't remember it. It was a rainy day caching with Net88 as we made our way towards this one and parked within metres. Before I'd barely gotten out of the car Net had the beast in hand. Pretty straightforward hide. TFTC Geckomaster62.

My first Queensland cache! Found with Mahesh (his first) before we headed to our dinner reservation down the road. TFTC geckomaster62!

We found this cash yesterday great hide

Took us a while but we got it!! First proper cache. Gotta cache them all.

Our second geocaching adventure!! Was a bit cheeky!!

I probably took the description a bit too literally and the gpsr also thought the cache was located on the corner of the marked sports field. There is a hole in the grass for a post there, so I poked and peered at it before deciding to look elsewhere. Excavation seemed implausible and I didn't have a shovel anyway

The next stop was to a likely suspect and I nabbed the cache

Nice easy find despite my momentary distraction!

Logbook needs replacing although I located a spot in it (somewhere) to plaster my name.

Container is okay as the magnet and tight fit holds the lid in place. You could have a squiz when replacing the log, eh?

TFTC, much fun as always GM62

Good easy find. TFTC. needs a new logbook desperately an the lid came off the hinge when I opened so needs a replacement container as well!

Nice quick find today. There was a musical concert on at School. Sat and listened to some surprisingly good jazz for a few minutes before the heat sent me to the air conditioned car.

Another quick one. My gps had it a few meters away but only a few obvious spots.

Another find by...

# 1231. Whoops. Have only just discovered I forgot to log this one from my trip to Brisbane over a month ago. Robmc brought it to my attention. I remember it was an easy find and getting very close to the end of our caching trip. We were on our way to the airport. TFTC

I still watch the clock until my shift finishes! No more at school though.
A quick find near an oval.
This was the last of your caches we did this trip, and I would just like to say how much we really enjoyed them all (except for the dnf's - they were crap! )
Thanks, Robmc.

I had thought the cache name meant free from having to attend school again, full stop.
No trouble locating this little hide
Thanks geckomaster62

Found in the first place I looked. Sweet as broo.
According to gc.com this my 10,000th FOUND log.

A very well camo'ed but still easy find. I remember the joy of Friday afternoons during my school days, I still get the same feeling after a hard weeks work. TFTC

Decided today to do a "oh, we missed that one or oh, we have the information for that cache' run and this was one of them. Nice easy find as we parked pretty close to GZ.

TFTC

A nice easy cache - even though I was directed to the grassy oval verge by my GPSr

TFTC

A quick find after parking up close by, I no sooner switch off the engine when the heavens opened up. I had a quick read of the logs and thought I had a good idea of where it would be.

I jumped out of the Geo mobile and made a quick dash to GZ. Quickly grabbed the cache and retreated to the car to sign the log. Another quick sprint back to place it back in position.

Cache all good.

TFTC

After a trip to Bunnings i decided to walk back to the ship in dry dock that i am working on
Managed a few caches on route
A great walk and took in some sights
had to wait for a class of kids to finish a race around the playing field but then easily grabbed , signed and returned
TFTC

Found after a brief wander aross a very muddy playing field TNLN

A nice quick find, a bit of activity in the nearby covered area. sat on the logs looking disinterested and spotted the cache made a quick beeline for it. signed and replaced it unnoticed.TFTC

Found on my way to "City Cacher Catchup - Leaping into 2012", Its a Leap Year!!

Arrived at GZ on a nice clear day. Nice little hiddy, Cache in Good condition

TFTC

Coordinates a bit off but found in obvious place. TFTC.

Pulled up at this one and thought it could only be one place, but knowing geckomaster 62 and his hides anything is possible. Lucky this was one of the easier ones. TFTH

found with barbbowman and fasted 59

going to have Martin Luther King's speach stuck in my head for hours now

not a bad thing

hiders usually paint the container to match the surrounds, did you paint the surrounds to match the container
lol

First geocache find. Kids thought it was awesome.

Just near the office, finally got around to it!

TFTC

School holidays so no kids around but muggles across the street. I must have looked pretty suspicious just sitting in my car!! Read previous logs about the vertically challenged but someone must have taken that into consideration when replacing the container previously so I also took pity on the less-tall among us and put it back where I found it. SL TFTC

Not a soul about

A quick grab, sign and off to the next one.

No dramas here today, unlike several gecko caches yesterday! All is fine with the cache and it's good to see one so near to a great school in which we share an interest. Now to push my luck with another...

Found as one of my lunchtime escapes from the office. Easy find and being school holidays makes it easier. TFTC.

This one was quicker to spot than some others today.
Thanks geckomaster62.

A quick drive by. No one was about when I arrived, but as I was signing the log I heard voices across the road, luckily they ignored me a I left.

Thanks

A nice quick find on a sunny winters day. Well camouflaged cache. Thanks for placing it here for us to find today geckomaster62.

Found at 1430Hrs with bluegonz. Nice quick find.
Thanks geckomaster62.

found with anddad

Parked and headed off into the park waiting for my GPS to power up. Oops! walked too far! Realised I had parked right next to the cache. TFTC geckomaster62

Found as dark descended, having dropped daughter of for concert rehearsals @ nearby venue.

Nice quick find, though almost spotted by pair of jobbers materialising out of the dark.

TNLNSL

Thanks gekomaster62 for the cache

Quick find after a short walk from the Colmslie. Quick find as there weren't too many places to look. TFTC

Found with TuisReturn tftc

Nice quick find tftc

Nice easy find today as we venture across the river for a few. Turns out to be the easiest of gm62's we did all day.... by far. Thanks geckomaster62

Easy find with Stairman1 and geodog on a public holiday. We could only just reach the cache. Maybe Eco and Rev are a lot taller than us. TFTC

Quick find but not too good for us vertically challenged. Signed the log
TFTC

TFTC. Went the wrong way on the gate way so ended up on your side of the river again.

TFTC SL

Felt very exposed as Seren_Dipity and I wandered out onto the sports field. Simple find once we got our bearings. TFTC.

After wandering out onto the field instinct led us back to the find. Thanks for the reach MudStalker!

Felt like I was trespassing to grab this one so I was glad it was a nice quick and easy find. TFTC

After having done a particularly tricky one by the owner this morning, I was immensely relieved when this turned out to be much less of a challenge. Waited till two lots of nearby muggles had lost interest, grabbed it, signed it and hid it again with no drama whatsoever. I liked the school facility nearby, looked great! TFTC! =^.^=

Came past pushing grandson in stroller before sundown and noted the location of the cache, but forgot to bring a writing stick, so came away empty handed.
Returned after dark - with writing implement - and signed the log. TFTC.

Took the Geo wife out for tea and decided to grab this one on the way home. A quick easy find in good condition. SL TFTC. The bloke across the road was trying to back his car and trailer out of his drive. He was far more interesting to watch than what I was doing so we managed to grab this one right from under the noses of a couple of muggles.

Cheers Geoff1313

Quick find on a deserted Sunday. The area has changed a lot since 1/2 Modelbear grew up in the area quite a few years ago. TFTC

Good one (like Title name) Glad no muggles at this oval. Phew!. SL. Thanks geckomaster62

There was no one around when I arrived, so this was a nice quick grab and go.

I returned the cache to it's prison, and I returned to my freedom.



Thanks geckomaster62

This was cache # 21 of 27 for the day, on my way to 5500 cache finds. A nice quick grab on this one, oh to be free of school. My thanks to geckomaster62 for the cache.

Had to return to the nearby hotel in the middle of the day, could not resit the chance to grab a quick cache SL TNLN TFTH

Found while taking a morning walk from our nearby hotel. Students were on break so not much activity in the area. TFTC.

You know one of the benefits of caching in business attire is that even if someone glances over in your direction, they soon dismiss any suspicion and you are free to hunt in peace.

Armed with a small black folder I was well and truly conducting "Business" and had the container in hand within a few seconds... I am please to say the surrounding structure is secure and requires no maintenance...

Cheers geckomaster62

A quick find while out on a caching run. Had to wait for a nearby muggle to leave before retrieving the cache. TFTC geckomaster62

Quick find on this Ekka show day. Can imagine this would be quite difficult at times!! TFTC geckomaster62

Found it No. 2953 ... not for shorties ... TNLN TFTC

Found while supposedly out doing some work in the area. TFTH

A clever hide, TFTC

Possibly the quickest park and grab I have done to date happy hunting all

Nabbed on my way to golf this morning TFTC.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga 2 at 9:46am. Had to wait until the Phys Ed lesson finished before getting the cache. TFTC

Found during a raid on Brisbane with The Rats, Big Matt and Shell and Steeba.

A nice simple find as we collected a few more finds in the suburbs.

#4460 Found this cache as part of a recent brissy raid along with Steeba, Big Matt and Farmer Frentzen. there was no school at this time of night. A nice easy find.
thanks

Found this cache with FarmerFrentzen, steeba and The Rats on our 2010 Brisbane Invasion Trip. This was our 4255th overall find. This cache was our 89th out of 101 for the day.

Found at about 9:50 PM. A simple find late at night.

Thanks to geckomaster62 for the cache.

TNLNSL

Found it but hard from the school Muggles cause it was 3pm

Found with The Rats, Big Matt and Farmer Frentzen as The Gangsters on our Brisbane invasion trip.

Pretty quiet here late at night and a quick drive by. TFTC!

Nice stroll through the park from where i was staying. Easy find with no muggles about. TFTC

The muggle potential was high on this one - thankfully I picked to do this one on the weekend. Approached GZ warily and made the find easily. Took the beast back to the car to sign the log. Returned with an equal amount of stealth. TFTC Geckomaster62

Strange colour this place. I'm sure it will look even stranger after Wednesday night (the colour) that is . Now it is time to head back for some double trouble on the geocycle.

No one around to spoil the hunt, so a quick find. TN/LN/SL

I rolled up to GZ this morning just as the trickle of "inmates" began turning up for their daily lockup nearby
But I was free !!
Free to grab this little caching morsel with nobody taking a bit of notice of me
It sure helps if there isn't a game in progress on the field too !!
With the cache replaced I hopped back on the pushbike and rolled off again.
TFTC.

Thanks to my partner in crime or I would have had trouble reaching this one. Thanks for the cache.

Nobody around on Sunday afternoon TFTC

Wouldn't want to try to look before or after school but on a sunday afternoon, it was fine.

TFTC

easy to find and lovely big veiw park...hide well
