Some parts of this are very rusted and need to be replaced urgently before it is lost.
Lovely little park in a not so quiet area due to all the yapping dogs as soon as we pulled over. Looking as innocent as we could we moved over to the GZ and spied this one quickly. Signed the log over at the nearby table and left to the tune of YAP YAP YAP......

As I rode the pushbike into this smlall park, it looked like I had a challenge on me hands.
I was surrounded by houses here and no place to hide !! [:o]
So I headed straight for the most likely looking place for a cache
As I poked and prodded the hiding spot, I noticed something lying on the ground nearby.
Ah !! That looks like a cache
I signed the logbook and wondered about how I should rehide it.
There probably was some sort of tether attached at one stage, but it has come adrift.
I used what I could find so the cache could be properly rehidden.
Future finders may want to bring along a fishing hook or magnet on a string to retrieve the cache if the current arrangement breaks

Today we took a drive to Burnett Heads, and down to Innes Park.
Came across some interesting caches, all well hidden.
A quick find.
Thanks for the cache, arobe235.

This one took a little searching, Geokid found it eventually underwater in a puddle, not sure if it was meant to be there! Thankfully the log was completely dry! TFTC!
6th find of the day with the geokids. Could park close so not everyone had to get out of the car.
Out and about today with Trenton8or and Mastamak.
We drove to within 15m of GZ and we had an idea of the location, we could not put the hint together to find it. I assume there was something to Pull in the passed but it is now no more. We did find another perfect location for the hide but being the size it is, we opted to return it to it's original location.
This was the 5th find of 21 for the day. With can you believe NO DNF's, So it was a Fantastic Day!!

First found a little hide where it originally could have been located, but what was there has been pushed in and looked as though no cache. I then looked back through some of the logs and with a bit of persistence and now dirty hand there I had the little bugger. No strings attached and other than the key ring a little rusty it is in good condition. Put back and covered. TFTC and the little munchkin had some fun on the play equip close by.

found but could't get the container out of the hide. Whatever one was to pull seems to have been packed under the container.
The hide is broken.
We took nothing but memories and left nothing but footprints.
Thanks for the cache arobe235.

Fourth cache in my run today
The cache is still there but not in original position
About 150mms behindwhere it should be.
Ok I just read Captain Terror's log and concur the position was exactly where he placed it

Yes the date on this is out, but the website doesn't let me change the date.
See my found log, the hide for this one has fallen apart and as such I had to relocate the cache container a short distance (less than half a foot). Needs some owner attention.

This cache has not weathered well at all.My dad and I parked nearby and headed in for the hunt here. I quickly saw something that seemed right, but when I removed a piece I spotted no cache so continued looking. No cache still. I decided to look at that first spot closer.
I noted water down there has caused the timber to disintegrate and I assumed covered the cache. I could neither see nor reach down there so to the car for a screwdriver and wind up torch. I stabbed and removed several pieces of sodden, rotten timber and finally saw the cache. Some more fiddling and I had the beast in hand. It was wet, but inside was ok. I added my name to the log and rehid not in the samee place. It is now in the middle of the tree as putting it where I found it was not suitable nor as it was originally placed. A nice idea though, TFTC arobe235

We were a little cautious about this one as it is in the middle of a very built up area. We were also being stalked by the Home Icecream Truck which we resisted - it was hard but just sometimes we are virtuous Made it to Gz we spied something that looked promising. We had read the hint so we knew what to do and found the cache. That turned out to be the easy part. Retrieving the cache from its hiding place was the tricky part. A little bit of finesse and a little bit of brute strength achieved the desired result and the logbook was in hand. Signed the log and replaced the cache TFTC. A favourite point from us.
Think we found it but the location was full of angry green ants preventing us to further investigate after we disturbed them.
Tried to retreive this cache as quick as possible due to the local dog seeing us and started barking. We really did enjoy this well hidden cache. TFTC arobe235
Holidays nearly over, a quick trip to Bundaberg to see the in-laws ... and grab a couple caches of course. [9D] Headed out with Muggle-wife and her camera to catch some views as well.
Off down the coast for more views, and dropped by here on the way. Easily enough found for an experienced cacher, but the challenge here was grabbing it - and then returning it - under the indirect gaze of young muggle kiddies across the road. Took a bit, but mission accomplished. Nice work.
Thanks for placing this cache, arobe235. Found in good condition.

What an ingenious cache and so well done indeed! We were so pleased that we had our geocaching tools with us yet again(2nd time today they were needed!) Tried to retrieve and replace the cache as fast as we could as a dog had started to bark. We were seen by the dog and 2 ducks walking nearby!!! Nice park - must be lovely for the residents who surround it.[^] TFTC arobe235 and the thought and work you put into this great cache.
Another warm, golden day of caching in the vicinity of Bundaberg. A beautiful stretch of coastline and an assortment of creative hides made for a great day out.
Thanks to arobe235.

The hound located the hiding place but could not extract it with his arthritic fingers yorky had to come and do the job. Nice one arobe235 TFTC.
Number 1 Grandson spotted this one quickly but then the problem was how to extract it. Perseverance paid off and we got to sign the log.
Thanks arobe235

Bethden found it. Have driven this road often but never knew about the lovely estate just off the road and this great little park. TFTC
We pulled up very close to this one, to block the view from some muggles at a nearby house . Janine jumped out for the hunt, and very quickly found the clever little hide. The log was signed, and the cache replaced before anyone could say .. "I wonder what that car is doing?"
Nice work indeed, TFTC arobe235

We felt a bit exposed so I sent Mr The.Hitchies alone to do this one while I sat in the car, nice hide
Quick find at 1620. Relied on GPSr and took me straight to GZ. No one around either in cars or gardens. Poked around and soon seated back in car writing in log. Very clever hide and container. I Like this sort of micro. Big for a micro. Not easy to see in the fading light TFTC arobe235
With an extra day this month makes it a great day to find a cache or two. Quick and easy find and a very good hide, I think team Fuddley were just ahead uf us?
I waited for the 29th Feb to find this cache as I wanted a leap year smiley face and this is the only cache in the wider Bundaberg area I am yet to find (until some more are placed...hint! hint!)
I turned up after work and the park was full of the local kids! So went away to do some oher things and came back just as the sun was setting...Ahh! just a couple of kids and thir parents in the middle of the park having a swing. I stealthily followed my GPS around..and around (it sometimes takes a while to get it's bearings) then finished up at a likely spot. Waited until the swingers were all looking the other way then a deft extract and the cache was in hand.
I went to a nearby table to sign the log then returned to GZ via a couple of other trees (stealth in action Then dropped my handkerchief and bent down to pick it up and at the same time replaced the cache.
After all that, hopefully no one twigged to a cache being there.
A nice hide, havent seen one like that before. TFTC arobe235

Shot out early this morning to grab this one before heading to work, and in doing so managed to mark up a find for the 29th of Feb.
Quick easy find in the early hours before to may people were up. Nice hide.

This was my next find for the day. I felt a bit exposed in this area - but there was no one outside due to the heat of the day. I came up to an obvious GZ and found something suspect. Ahhh the cache! It is in good condition. A nice little idea. TFTC arobe235
Saw this one publish last night, decided it could wait. Suprised i was FTF. Crafty hide. With the long grass there were lots of mozzies. Thanks arobe235
Seirra1 saw this one publish but decided to wait until today. Lucky the mosquitoes don't bother him as much as thy do me. Clever hide. TFTC arobe2235
