3 DNF's indicate possible problem so will swing past when I get a chance to check it out
Had a scout around for a while around GZ, just didnt manage to eye the cache. better luck next time i hope.
I'd been out with teamdfl but she had to go to work, so I thought I'd take the scenic route back to the northside and grab a few more along the way. This one had me scratching my head for a couple of minutes while my GPS went crazy, but eventually I gave up on it and used my caching senses. Finally found the beastie. TFTC, Irony9.
Great little rest area and plenty of entertainment for the kids. Cache was a short walk from the rest area and we found it in good condition and did not have too many problems. TFTC Irony9.
Out with misssusan for the day, this was our second find for the day. Walloon seems like a lovely little town, and this was a lovely little park near the cache, I liked the statue and how toilet block was painted. Got to gz and misssusan said I think this seems like a logical spot, a bit of a scuffle and the cache was spotted. Tftc.
Just checking maps and realised that I have not logged this one - I remember that my name was after stairman and goldilover but can't remember the date
thanks for the cache Irony9

After seeing the previous DNF and noting that there hadnt been a find for several months we were skeptical as to whether we'd be lucky today or not. I made a comment about where I thought it would be and the first place I checked revealed the cache.
If this cache is or was in the garden bed, then the owner will need to check as area has had a heap of fresh wood chip put all over it. We could not see any place that hadn't been cover.
Took the scenic route (back road) into Ipswich this morning to avoid the heavy traffic and road works along the Warrego Highway. What a surprise to find the statues of the 2 little girls imortalised in and the inspiration for Henry Lawson's poem, 'The Babies of Walloon' (1891).
After getting our local history lesson we set off to find the cache. Found no trouble. All in good condition.
Thanks for bringing this park to our attention Irony9.

Certainly appears that this area has been very wet from all outward appearances, nice and dry today. SL TFTC
Great easy find for today. Fantastic play area for us to being the geokids back to!
GPSr had me a little off today but after widening the search I spotted the cache. All nice and dry. Cheers Irony9
Out with the torches on our way home from Toowoomba. Cache all in good order.

Found with stairman1. This was the last one in our big day of caching. We arrived late and with torches in hand we located the container. All is good here. Thanks Irony9.
We had been visiting the folk on the farm near Aratula and headed past this way to meet up with a group of cachers for a paddle raid on Wivenhoe Dam. Now we all know that you are not allowed to drive past available caches when you are on your way somewhere, so we just had to take a short detour. We quickly found the cache and with the log signed, we jumped back into our geo-mobile to make our designated rendevous. Thank you for having placed the cache Irony 9.
A quick little detour off the highway to grab this one on my way home.
A quick find and in good condition.
Thanks for the cache.

Finally got out for some caching today. This was one I have been wanting to come out for, for a while. There was a lot of Muggle traffic but I soon got a gap and grabbed the Cache. Nice hide. TFTC.

2nd to find, our very last on a huge caching trip, ClaireBear beat me to the punch in the end another great hide Irony9, TNLN SL TFTC
I remember finding a cache in this park some time ago, and I went at night.
The thing I remember most is the size, and number of cane toads they were everywhere and they were so big Think I will look for this one in the daytime
