Went searching with no luck, someone says below that they noticed it had gone walk abouts looks like this one needs replacing?
Second time searching for it and still nothing. Admittedly I never use a GPS but it seems to me like this one is either lost or hid very well.
Visited the cache after 6 years - still same logbook and the same pen Dropped-off 2 TB's and sat at the beautiful and quiet creek. I really love this place!
TFTC spotted it quickly but had to wait for a duck to get out of the way before I could get in and reach it!
Time available at the end of a training day in this area, and I had come prepared, so off to find a cache or three. What a perfect combination, leisure time, great weather, a not too difficult find, a shady spot overlooking the rivulet and golf course to sign the paper log and write up this one. Life is good! Dropped off Monster Jam Travel Bug as I don't think I will have much opportunity to help him travel Australia in the next few months, apart from retracing steps to places he has already been.
Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.
Finally feeling well enough to cache, Mr Felix declared today was to be a full days caching!
So lunch packed and off we went! Some interesting suburban spots that we wouldn't normally have ventured into without Geocaching.
Took a bit of scouting but eventually we had the cache in hand.
Looking forward to meeting local cachers at the Event on 17th October.

Found while going to the shops. Visiting Launceston from Newcastle. Nice hide, saw some duck on the creek near here. TFTC
Mr W went for a stroll while Mrs. W. was shopping at the supermarket. Located and signed. TFTC
We enjoyed the short walk in this lovely area. Thanks for placing a cache here, Tassieboy.
I had a look did this cache once before with no luck. Thankfully tonight the GPS took me straight to the cache. Nicely hidden cache.

After finding some caches in Youngtown I came up here to find this cache. Was one of those caches in Launceston I hadn't even attempted until now. As I got there some sort of animal scurried into where the cache was. Have no idea what it was as I didn't see much of it. TFTC find #254

After doing the earth cache down at the punch bowl we headed to this one. We picked the right side to look from and the co-ords are good for a quick find as hids under grass can take a while. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

there are times in ones life where you just stop for a moment and evaluate things. As I got closer to this cache, I noted the nearby golfers and shook my head as to how futile it is to chase little white balls around... hang on, I've just wasted half of my day chasing little black boxes around.. go figure ..!! Sorry, I'm in a particularly philosophical mood today, sleep deprivation and shift work are a bad combination ..!!
Took us about 15 mins to find this one due to your bad geography skills! So we were very happy to find it! TFTC
Didn't even know this path exited. Thanks for taking us here. We set out this morning to get 7 caches to get Groat45 up to his first hundred. We planned for it to be another nearby cache but way to many muggles so this was the chosen one. With a bit of searching Groat45 soon had this in cache in hand and collected his first 100 caches. We'll done Groat45. Tftc
#1368 - 14:30; Back in Launceston on the back half of our Tassie visit. The weather has finally cleared after a miserable day yesterday. Had a coffee with the geohoney nearby and headed down the path to Punchbowl while she did some shopping. Had to check in a couple of places, but made a reasonably quick find. Log signing duties completed, it was off further down the path to try for its sibling. TFTC Tassieboy
Found it after a little search, geo-saur near by monitoring visitors.Yet another place if not for this game I would not know about. TFTC Tassieboy. Took parachuting dog and left 60th anniversary matchbox 4x4
Had to rush tgis one as there were muggles coming from both directions! Took an army man and left a shell. TFTC
Found in seconds. Just as well as a fight was brewing after not finding the previous cache nearby.
Out caching Dad does not have a phone like Mums and has to log later. We all had fun.
Great time out with the family. DR JAMES, SMELLY BELLY 8 and JABs Had a lot of fun and it was a very lovely day. Gained lots of fantastic memories and visited some cool places. This was part of my geocaching scouting challenge.

Found on our geocaching scouts challenge. Was a fun day out with the family JABs pE and Dr J. We sore lots of different areas and lots of different types of caches.
Found[Time to Find: 1 min] 24 August 2013 16:23:02 Smelly belly 8 took an interest in the running creek by GZ. So the logging duties were left to me. An interesting location that has a high number of passing muggles.

Came here just before dark which meant an easy find with no muggles about. TFTC Tassieboy.
Got it! Nice hide, hard to avoid the gym-junkie muggles though! Took the gorilla and left the bouncy ball. TFTC!!
More of a drive from Punchbowl rather than a walk for me. But then a nice little stroll from this one to #2 & back. TFTC.
A short look and a quick find. A nice walk down from the Meadows.
