Had a search for this one but no cigar
R

Lost in changes to the wall.

Could not find today.

Even though I had a good idea of what I was looking for, after all it’s in the cache description and George Montague seems to confirm it, I couldn’t spot anything... I did only have a cursory look though as one of the neighbours was watching me from their car...

Not sure what to look for

It was overgrown and has been mowed, but unable to find anything

Embarked on a journey to find a number in a series of caches this morning, but "Road closed due to flooding", so I forgot it, and came here instead. Interesting that the streets here seem to be named after labor party pollies - Goss Dr and Whitlam Dr, but Bob Hawke only got an Ave! . I do remember meeting Mr Goss snr, father of Wayne, many years ago, but I try to keep away from pollie folk if I can.
But I'm rambling again. Found the cache easily, but had to retreat to the car to fetch the can opener. Found a screwdriver worked just as well - the lid is fairly rusted and hard to remove. Added to the log, and replaced the rather torn ziplock bag with a shiny new one. TFTC, steilerfam.

**Smilie #4683**

A day of caching was planned, with Team Benders, to pick up caches that neither of us had found.
All caches found today by us were joint finds with Judy of Team Benders.
Our target for today was 30 caches but any number will do really.
(20 of 33 found for VC)

Geo-Mamma was on to this one like a flash.
Nice quick find.
Made our marks & replaced as found.

Found it!!

Nice quick find tftc

Cool little tin

Out and about with IolatheK today. It looked like another wet caching Wednesday when we caught up in a car park. As I made the wise choice to leave my sunnies in my car the weather improved rapidly and it turned out quite nice.

Nice little spot.
TFTC

Out for a few hours again with ankakeca

We searched a couple of spots, but when I read the hint we had a different look! A cute container. TFTC, stielerfam.

A day out in the Collingwood Park area with Joojoo57, Patrol14, Sewrainbow, KerriMG & Nikid1.

Not far to find this one - it took longer to take the lid off than it did to find the cache!

Log signed by all & replaced again. Found at 11.00am on 14th July 2016. TFTC

A day out in the Collingwood Park area with RoddyC, Joojoo57, Patrol14, Sewrainbow & Nikid1.

A quick find and sign and on our way. Thanks stielerfam.

Caching with friends. Nice quick find. Left some fairy dust TFTC

I decided to finish off some caches in this area. Nice easy find but difficult to get the rusted lid off. TFTC!

Found it. Needed the hint though

A quick drive by.. Or at least it would have been except that I struggled to get the lid off the rusty tin.

TFTC

My first ever cashe find thanks!

Not too hard a find but as I opened the lid this (rubber) spider jumped out and that woke me up a bit. Log is a bit damp and smells mildewy Thanks for placing this cache

Tftc.

TFTC didn't leave anything

Quick easy find

Quick and easy find great hint.

Found while I'm the area. A nice quick find. TFTC.

No muggles around for a nice quick find. Tftc

At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be taken, as it will make the challenge so much easier. 

After a three and a half week roadtrip from Margaret River to Brisbane it's time to find some work again.

This one was a quick and easy find.

TFTC and greetings from Germany

Today we explored Ipswich and surrounds with Roostaman using geocaching as a guide.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Found it. Tin a bit hard to open but got it in the end

Quick find after attending an engagement party nearby.

TFTC.

Nice to sit down and find containers but was in the sun so didn't stop to take in the surroundings. Nice easement.

Is a little rusty. Camouflaged it a bit more. Cute little tin

I like

Found it! TFTC

Found a few days ago. Forgot to log. Nice easy find, van wait for breaks in traffic to grab. Container is pretty rusty and difficult to open.

A nice quick & easy one, after the previous tricky little puzzle. Quite simple once I sat down as Dr_Pepi read the clues/logs. Really liked this little tin. TFTC

Cache number five and find number four on a massive day out with trin_007. Beautiful walk along the local path and around the local park/reserve area. Walking up to GZ, checking the compass and reading the description when I look up to find Trin already had it in hand. She's sneaky!

logging on some old hags computer as I have logged on the phone before, however it is not showing as a smilie for some reason

thanks stielerfam

Nice quick find with geokid this afternoon.

Travelling from Brisbane to Ipswich, we found a variety of caches
which kept us well entertained.
Thanks, stielerfam for the hunt.

TFTC stielerfam.

Approaching this one I was a little confused as I walked across what should have been GZ on the GPSr, but was still in the middle of grass, but the hint helped to solve this and it may have been a few meters off, but still not to difficult to find.

The container had a little friend on it, which I did not realise until I had almost squashed the poor fellow trying to open the container, but he still stayed put, until I again without thinking almost squashed him in getting the lid back on, no worries he ran off and the cache is back in place.

TFTC

Out and about caching with OrionJ today, and we took a seat at GZ...

My cacher buddy nabbed the cache and we did the paperwork

An eight-legged friend squatted on the bottom of the container while we fiddled with it. He wishes to make a complaint about the constant disturbances by geocachers while he is trying to sleep

Cache replaced and on we rolled...

TFTC stielerfam!

Thanks for the hide. Log is a little damp and getting mouldy.

Out with Aberosenstingel tonight. The log is a bit damp but still serviceable. TFTC

Quick find, log book was very soggy.

TFTF, be care as lots of muggle dogs bark near this one

Almost done for the day. Followed the instructions and came up trumps. Nobody about this afternoon to bother me

found

A quick jump out of the car. Thought this would be quick. Noted a tin in fact on the side of the fenceline and thought it had been muggled but then the GPS was a little out. So looked further and sat down on a hard place. Looked around and behind. Found it! TFTC

Found as a fairly quick drive by. Everything was fine at the time of discovery: TFTC!

After a pleasant walk along some paths I was at GZ for this one. I did what the clue said and quickly found the cache in it special spot. TFTC

Located while looking over my shoulder at the house on the other side of the fence. However didn't seem to raise any suspicions and all good. thanks stielerfam

This is a nice safe little hide in a shady spot which was what i needed in today's midday heat! TFTC!

A nice quick find on the way home from work. Cache is in OK condition. TFTC.

Found with Helibear60 & geolabby nice new walking tracks in the area, some still being finished had a rest while we filled in the log TFTC stielerfam

Good find have Geo dog with us and has up set all other dogs in area. Had a seat and there it was. TFTC

yes there it is, at last, may need some TLC as log is damp. TFTC

I parked across the road to grab this one and had a read through the cache page as I walked. Soon at the right spot and after making sure no muggles were watching I grabbed a good looking stick and commenced a fossick about. I was attracted to one spot and sure enough, the cache was tucked away there. All in good condition, TFTC stielerfam

This was my first find for the day. I was a bit warey when I pulled up - but soon realised it was not going to be affecting the house nearby as I searched.

After a bit of a cusory look.. and a dig around with the pen (one does not use one's hands - lord knows what's in rocky crevices!), I found the elusive beast.

It was hidden well and in good condition. A nice little nook indeed. TFTC stielerfam

Caching around Ipswich
tftc

Accurate coordinates and a good hint resulted in a quick find. The cache and its contents were in good condition. TFTC stielerfam.

Took a little while but finally found it. Cute little tin.

Out and about grabbing a few more caches in my old teenage stomping grounds.
The area has changed a lot in the last 20 years. I went to the Scout jamborree that was very near here before there were houses.
Thanks for the cache. All dry inside.

Found with PP

The third for the afternoon. A nice park this one. Thanks stielerfam.

Getting back into this after a break. This is right close to home so myself and grison went for a look. We are a bit rusty but found it in the end. Started to pour down so quick sign of the log and Regis. TFTC TNLN

Quick find whilst the muggles up the road attended a house auction. TNLNSL, cheers stielerfam

Quick find - nice little container. Signed log and left a few little swaps. TFTC!
