I visited today but could not find it. Then I noticed the previous DNF logs.
Definitely needs archiving.

Out with Butchie Bum and the Geonut for another 24 hr caching adventure but this one eluded us!!! Tried at night so had the place to ourselves and searched for an hour still with no luck
Great hide, and as a result of finding this one, went back to Hannahs, but still no luck there. Out with levets and the dog.
12:51 PM Quick find indeed at a spot I have been to many times. Took nothing Left nothing. Thanks for the cache.
We were in need of sustenence so we used the nearby facility before grabbing the cache.

Totally muggled out and we were being watched from the cafe so we didn't even attempt it.
4015 Thanks for all your hard work making this cache Sam! It's really cool! No one was playing tennis today, don't know why as you couldn't have asked for a better day. TFTC
Clever very clever. Third one Jas and Bern have found, this was well camoflaged and took some time, but WOW what a laugh. We will continue without gps device till it really feel we need it. Geomaps help us to the general vicinity. Thanks so much for the cache. Well done lotsa fun and am in AWE of cunningness.
Omaha is a lovely little place. Kayaknkiwi was able to put her hands on this cache and then it was off for some yummy ice cream for Kayaknkiwi, Indiana Jill and myself. Stayed at the holiday park across the bay. Sorry for the delay in posting . . . found some un-logged caches in my personal logging notebook and thought I had better post before it's too late!
Another goody in the area, You must of had a ball placing these. After the find, a nice cool refreshment was need. Brilliant. Thanks "again" for the adventure!
6329 Mrs YuGeo aced this one, after Mr YuGeo overlooked the obvious, nice camo and hide, many thanks Sam.
ScruffyNZ found this one whilst i was mending a wounded face after head butting a sharp peice of flax! tftc!
[Nice easy find. Cute clue.] Spiffy colour match of cache to environment!
Kids went off on their own to find this one and came home DNF. We attempted again the next morning with success! Good to know the parents are still the superior finders. 
Great community facilities. Having read the previous logs and the nicely cryptic hint we made a quick find. Good camo. Thanks.

Had visited this one a week earlier when my mates brother was introducing me to geocaching and picked it up during dinner at the club. Very nice cache 
Coordinates were a bit out, had me in the middle of the lawn, trying not to look sus Found it because of the clue, which I thought was very clever.

Out and about up north for the day to catch up on some new caches. Parked close by and after a sweep of the area quickly spotted something out of place. Visited the nearby cafe for coffee and morning tea and we both agreed it was the best coffee we have had in a very long time 
. Thanks for bringing us here to discover Omaha's best kept secret T4TC.
