02-Jun-14
The area around the GZ tree has been recently remulched with tan bark by the Council
 
26-Apr-14
Like our predecessors, found the pencil, but gave up on the cache... Almost tempted to mark this as a find...
 
08-Apr-14
Found pencil but no container, put pencil back so you can see what I mean onward bound, but thanks anyway
 
11-Mar-14
out with a muggle friend checking out photo places in the area

nice and early in the morning and no one around
no cache either Sad
 
10-Mar-14
Well I found the pencil and due to this getting regularly muggled I suspect that is all i'm going to find

No cache for us today...Sad
 
01-Mar-14
Found it with partners in crime on the 23 -2-14....returned today to show my husband what a cache might look like......The cache seems to have been taken away!
 
23-Feb-14
Out for caching run around the Cleveland area today. Difficulty was far higher this morning as the finishing area for a triathlon was located right near GZ. Managed to find the right spot and time the grab between passing muggles. Cache found safe and well. Tftc.
 
17-Feb-14
Left a Canadian flag pin behind! Very easy find.
 
15-Feb-14
Where is Liam neeson when you need him?! Going to log a find on the basis that we don't negotiate with terrorists!
 
30-Jan-14
Attention CO will need to pay the ransom. Kidnappers weren't joking, it hasn't been returned. Unable to "relax at Raby Bay" on the third bolt.
 
27-Jan-14
Not sure whether to claim as a find or not, but we found a ransom note where the cache was supposed to be. Obviously not a location favored by whoever keeps kidnapping it. TFTC, onward bound and cleveland girl. =^.^=
 
25-Jan-14
Out doing Cleveland by bike for a Saturday spin. Easy find in the drizzling rain - no muggles about Cool
 
21-Jan-14
Oh No!!! This one has been kidknapped and a ransom demand left in it's place.
This one will need to be looked at by the CO.
 
21-Jan-14
Didn't dind this one but found a ransom note in the garden just in a zip lock bag. the noted stated the container had been removed and would be returned if certain demands were met.
Waldenclan have a photo of the note and will send to the CO.
very unusual
 
16-Jan-14
Found it, thanks to the hint Smile. Unfortunately, I didn 't have a pen with me and the pencil is no longer there, so couldn't sign the log. But fun to find anyway . Thanks
 
11-Jan-14
Out n about night time caching in Cleveland tonight.
Skies are clear but our GPS was bouncing around for some reason.
Thanks to the hint we soon found the cache.

Out today with Angela & Dave on a pre-arranged visit to the dark side of the river Smile

The hint works perfectly, thanks!

TFTC Smile
 
Saw this one before we had a chance to feel for it. Hope it's ok, I swapped your bright red eclipse tin for a green one that I spray painted black. As there are green bits showing through in some corners it looks quite camo'd in comparison. TFTC

A sunny Sunday and I am heading out geocaching again. Cool
I started the day around 0730. It is now almost 11 am and has it warmed up or what. Surprised
I left the car parked where it was as this morning there had been a bicycle race around town and had only just finished so people where still cleaning up. Big Grin
The hint certainly helps here. Big Grin
Thanks for the cache.

Cache was exposed, signed the log & buried the cache under some bark.TFTC
 
04-Nov-13
TFTC!!! No pen so could sign Sad
 
Nice to meet some brand new cachers. Their 5th find. Passed the log around to be signed, and had a quick chat; then we parted company to continue with our caching day. TFTC.
 
02-Nov-13
Found it and a few others who have/are reaching milestones
 
02-Nov-13
It's good to see others caching write in the same place we are hearding. Newbies had cache in hand quick smart nice to meet new people caching log was past around than placed back to its hiding spot tftc

Nice easy find. TFTC

Nice stroll after dinner. Easy to find. Now off to cold rock. TFTC Smile
 
26-Oct-13
Down for the Twilight Markets I thought I would log this one as I knew it had been replaced after being cache-napped... Finally I get to add another smiley to my map.

19-Oct-13
Geo container gone. Ransom note still there.
 
03-Oct-13
Kidnappers have stolen the black box so we are unable to leave cache. Note still in the bag.
 
02-Oct-13
An easy find once you work out where to start counting the bolts. TFTC
 
28-Sep-13
Last time we visited this area we were walking - this time on the mountain bikes, our caching find rate was pleasantly much higher Smile
Cache number fourteen for the day. Saturday markets.....Muggles.... although they were probably more interested in the band that was playing than us Smile
Have to agree with some earlier geocachers - an easy find once you search from the right corner - took us a couple of tries before we came up with the goods.

TFTC.
 
14-Sep-13
Nice easy find once we figured which end to count from. my new geo friend found it. TFTC. Angus the great GeoWestie assisted by grey nomad Carer Lis Brown.

Went for ice cream after school and decided to have a look around for some Geo's.
 
01-Sep-13
Off back to UK in a couple of days so trying to pick up a few last minute Geo's.
a great location if you can avoid muggles.

29-Aug-13
Well RoseGums and I found a cache container with a brand new log inside. Not sure it will last as it could be picked up as litter.

11-Aug-13
Well this one has been muggled and being held for ransom... Made me actually laugh about not finding one... Anyway back to redlander Very Happy
 
04-Aug-13
Scoured the area with the 4 kids. Couldn't find it.
Looks like they recently re mulched the gardens. Someone must have thrown it away. Sad
 
13-Jul-13
It would seem this one has been kidnapped, I spent quite some time looking for it and looked the through the entire garden ( without walking into it) without any luck of finding the cache.
 
12-Jul-13
This little thing is MIA and needs to be either replaced or archived.
 
09-Jul-13
Well we tried hard and even using the hint we couldn't find it. It was quite late so there were no Muggles and we had a good search.

Either it's gone or it's a little harder to find than we thought.
 
06-Jul-13
However did find a note in a plastic bag saying "We've kidnapped your little black box! ... etc"
 
12-Jun-13
Found this cache whilst out caching with Nyssaflutterby on a wet and miserable day to grab some caches. I sat down (in the rain) and started looking. I found the cache within a few minutes but the logbook was too wet to sign with my pencil Sad I took a photo and can email it if you wish. Thanks for the cache onward bound and cleveland girl
 
01-Jun-13
Log very wet. Easy find on a great afternoon for caching
 
30-Apr-13
There were a few muggles around this afternoon but I liked my chances. Our financial planners are nearby so I know the area pretty well. I sat down as directed... only to find a girl lying down on the grass across the way chatting to her male companion but staring right at me... and not looking away at all... for several minutes... wow, am I that good-looking or something? I played with my phone until she finally tore her eyes off me and I could make the grab. I went round the other side to do the biz and then sneaked it back. It took a lot longer than I expected but it's a great spot so TFTC again onward bound.
 
24-Apr-13
Well I'm glad that egginthesky and myself drove that whole 100 metres from our last cache to grab this one Surprised Hmmm, we hadn't really got into the swing of the night properly yet and misjudged our distance from last hide to this one. Ah well! We approach GZ and used the hint. Not sure which third one from where, but we found it in the end. Sign the log book and replaced the cache as found.

Awesome, had a great dinner at Hogs Breath before hand!
 
19-Apr-13
Was here today for a mates wedding and saw this one nearby! I found it with a friend who has never been caching! Cool hide. Tftc

07-Apr-13
After a lovely date with MudStalker, stood back and watched him and my geoangel seek this one out while I giggled
 
07-Apr-13
Had a lovely dinner and found it in seconds after. Log was too wet to sign
 
07-Apr-13
Fantastic place and an easy find. Perfect after having a lovely meal at the fish and chip shop!
 
30-Mar-13
Well we started from the wrong spot but soon realised the error of our ways when we came up empty handed. Plenty of people were enjoying lunch in the nearby establishment but GZ was free. The log is too wet to sign so we added a new piece of paper. TFTC
 
30-Mar-13
Totally exposed so an easy find indeed. Log is saturated and unable to sign it. Left a dry sheet in separate plastic bag so hopefully this will suffice for a few more finders.
 
24-Mar-13
Nice hide in a busy area but we managed to sign the log without being discovered. TFTC.
 
27-Feb-13
Log too wet to write on, soooo much rain lately. Tftc
 
26-Feb-13
Easy find when you read the clue properly. The log is wet needs a little TLC. TFTC
 
26-Feb-13
Has been quite wet. Log is wet.
 
17-Feb-13
While waiting to enjoying some seafood nearby we saw there was a cache very close. Quickly found cache, signed the wet leg and re-hid. TFTC Smile
 
17-Feb-13
Ha, ha, ha. Which end? We discovered which end but only after trying the wrong end first. We should have spotted it earlier because it was uncovered and sitting there naked. We made sure the next finder 'should' find it following the hint as we couldn't see it when we left. This is a lovely area here and very pleasant to wander around. Thanks for bringing us onward bound and Cleveland Girl.
 
28-Jan-13
I think I maybe wrote the wrong date on the log. Been busy at work and I have no idea what day it is Wink It was nice and quiet at GZ today for an easy hunt and find Smile
 
26-Jan-13
A quick drive by - parked in the layby - grab the cache and drive off. TFTC
 
12-Jan-13
TFTC The three of us set to work, each deciphering the clue slightly different. Couchmen was on the money and came up with the goods

RN Rooster, A Ladybug and I had decided to do some caching together today in the Wynnum or Cleveland area.

We had actually been on our way to the ice cream parlor to grab a well earned ice cream after a great afternoon.

A Ladybug is talking as we walk about a cache near by that she has had trouble with so of course being good friendly fellow cachers we just had to help her out to convert this to a smilie.

RNRooster and A Ladybug take a position that the GPS seems to be suggesting and start searching then I looked at my iPhone and it seemed to be suggesting a little further along.

I move up to that position and everything fits so I sit down and reach with my left hand and within seconds I have the sneaky little sucker in my hot big hand ( I couldn't say little because it's not).

I signal to my lady companions and they soon realise that I have solved another one.

We all rejoiced in another find especially ALB and sign the log just dying to get to that cold reward.

And special thanks goes to RNRooster for shouting us to Cold Rock just for coming out with her and enjoying our favorite game, that's what I call a double reward.

Thanks onward bound TFTC SL
 
12-Jan-13
Couchmen and HNRooster took a position at either end and I sat in the middle. In synchronised harmony we all...

Put the left hand in and shake it all about, did the hokey pokey, then the Couchmen gave a shout!

Actually he whistled softly and the Hen looked at me and said " Is that your phone?"

We shuffled over to inspect the cache and sign the log. Lots of smokers puffing away nearby, but not the least bit interested in us sitting on the garden edge. It was twilight too, so a bit cooler.

Relieved to stamp a smilie on this one, after a couple of false starts in the area on caching days.

Not a huge fan of garden hides as gardeners move things around during the week. It appears the coords were out by a few metres, but the find was made based on the hint and the container was roughly where you'd expect it to be ... So all good here for us today Smile

TFTC onward bound!
 
06-Jan-13
Great hint.Easy find.
 
28-Dec-12
First cache for the day, counting the bolts!

28-Dec-12
Hitting the Cleveland area with Wombles 'n' co & Gambler200 today. Stopped in the nearby shopping parking and strolled over to this one.... GPS was having a few issues deciding where to look so we read the hint and made our own decisions... Wombles came up with the goods after a short look Smile

First cache for the day
tftc
 
26-Dec-12
Thanks. Surprisingly the cache is nice and dry.
 
24-Dec-12
A fantastic quiet morning for a cycle. Someone's been hunting in the garden but still found cache ok.
 
21-Dec-12
A great day out enjoying our beautiful area with IolantheK and my geoson svn05. With the use of the hint it wasn't long before I was opening this cache.

Thanks for the cache onward bound. Cheers svn07
 
21-Dec-12
Out and about on the southside with svn07 and her geoson svn05 on our first caching adventure together Big Grin

Yet again the iPhones were going crazy, but after making use of the hint svn07 made the find. TFTC, onward bound.
 
17-Nov-12
Left home earlier on our way to the Straddie flyer, so we stopped to pick up a Cleveland cache or two. Mr Garnin had us a few metres away, but an easy find with the clue.

Sat and signed the log whilst the nasty personal trainer put some poor souls through some early Satruday morning pain.

TFTC Cleveland girl and onward bound.

Thanks! Not sure what council work will do to this but until then- great!

3rd find for the day. Not sure how long this cache will last, as the council just needs to do a clean up and it will be gone.

TFTC, it was a nice stop.

A lovely day to go caching with the temperature being a bit cooler than the last few day. This is a gorgeous area full of lovely views that we remember quite well from our visit to the area in 2007. Great to see so many good caches around the location. This was one we targetted and were able to find.
Thanks to onward bound.
 
29-Sep-12
TFTC! Sat down and had a look around on our way back to the car. Geobub (2yrs) started doing a bit of a CITO in the garden bed, and then we found the cache.
 
29-Sep-12
Started counting from the wrong corner! An easy find when we saw the REAL corner. Had to go back and return the pencil after we inadvertently walked off with it. Geobub playing in the garden makes for great camouflage! TFTC

"That's more like it", I thought when I saw the bike parking facilities provided at this cache location [^]
Leaving the bike anchored nearby, I took a seat and found me a cache Smile
Just like that !! [:o]
How relaxing [^]

Looking around I could see some of the 'high stress' toys that dot the harbour.
How anyone can relax on board one of those beauties when you have to pay the bills to keep them running, is beyond me Smile

TFTC.
