this cache is in a high profile area, surprised it hasn’t gone missing before. Thanks to previous finders.
Hi there pmt123.
We found your cache **"Well Done Doug"** at 10:23:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 20379).
We started the day off by nominating a cache in Rockhampton, and then following a "next closest" route as determined by the GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.
We found 5 caches today & DNF'd 2. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Did a lap of the area before finding it. Not in picnic area where I first suspected
Decided to look for this one while I was waiting for some parts
Nice easy one to do while I was waiting. Tftc

The search was really fun but I had to write in a piece paper. It did give me something to do. 9/10

On a break after lunch, on this warm winter afternoon. Found it quickly, thanks, Edwin
Just returned from my holiday and catching up on the logs from my fantastic trip. Pretty quick find in a park that seems not to get much use. Cache is in fine shape. Signed log and left path tag. Thanks
It appears some gardening may be happening at cache site soon
Cache found by geo hubby after I overlooked it
Easy find for him first spot he checked

Spending a beautiful Sunday arvo doing a few local caches with the boyfriend. Found this one quickly. TFTC!
Our last one for today. Had a beautiful time here with meeting locals at the Event, explored new locations and refreshed known ones.
Thanks to all COs for their efforts.

Found this one BFE-style. It looks like the concealment is broken beyond repair. Concealed it differently in the same location. No trackable found.
Found this on our honeymoon! disappointed that the trackable wasn't there. Found BFE style TFTC
Was drawn to this cache because of the trackable. Disappointed that the trackable was missing. Left a small puzzle. TFTC
Found it. Very bold cache but it works. The GZ could do with a mow from Council
i do have a penpall i explain this game and tell here there are caches
so she found some one for me
so she found some one for me
Found at 4:52 PM GAFF1.
A bold hide, but obviously has been very effective as it has stayed there for 4.5 years!
Doug died young - so wonder what he would have achieved if he had lived for a few more years?
Thanks pmt123.

Hi all, am liking finding the geocaches, but most have been empty. Though have been filling them. Thankyou for the good hiding spot
Someone had tampered with the cache. The lid was found off the container and not in the zip lock bag. Container was not hidden at all. I put it back more discreetly. TFTF
Having arrived in Rocky we have some things to sort out like trying to get the car serviced after a momouth road trip via Alice Springs. After making the booking we ventured out to do a few caches. This was one we targetted and found. Thanks to pmt123 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area. 
Out and about in Rockhampton with 4year old geo grandie. She is the daughter of Joe_M cacher in Brisbane and knows the game.
We searched every possible nook and cranny - obviously except one - did not find, much to Bella's disappointment.

Ace of black diamonds and max 16/10/2016. Found in good condition. Distracted the muggles by playing with their dog as max moved in for her second find.
Found it. And I actually felt myself blush. I'm so embarrassed about that previous dnf. Dnf doesn't normally bother me, but I have a degree that says I should have easily spotted what was different here:$ thanks for the cache. A little more experience in the game gained, and a good laugh at myself too. By the way, no trackable sighted in here.
Twisted Light claims our first official cache. Easy find for those who are familiar with the hunt.
Thanks for letting me know about the dnf, will check it out when I get back in town in afortnight
