Found at 3:17 PM GAFF1.
Found it a bit incongruous to see a cannon on church property - at least it was gaily painted. I spotted the hiding spot on arrival, but ignored it and started looking all over the other end - had to go back and kick myself for not checking the first spot [B)]
Thanks corikra.

The potted history in the cache notes goes a long way to explaining why this object is here Big Grin
Looks Russian !! [:o]

Last time we were in the vicinity we had to just keep on driving as there was a congregation of muggles in loc. No such problems today as we called in on the way back from Forest Beach after having a BBQ lunch with GeoP's dad.

A short search soon had the cache in the hands of geoP.

North Qld 2013. Day 12 Townsville to Tully. With cane trams moving around the mill and these feeder lines I came over here for a good look round. The hide location was unexpected in a church yard ! Thanks.

A nice quick one on our trip North from Townsville to Cairns.
Guessed exactly where it would be when I walked up and checked every other spot first before trying my inital idea and finding a nicely hidden cache.
Very muggy today and in the 'heat' of the moment the iPhone was left at GZ and had to be retrieved before leaving.
Back on the road and only 3.5hrs driving to go................

Cheers and happy caching.
