One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Attend the dawn service this morning and decided to do some geocaching in the area while waiting to go to work at 12 noon, I think the CO needs to check on this one as I couldn't find it too...TFTH

Fantastic day for geocaching. Grabbed geobuddy and headed north of the river to tackle the area west of the freeway - an area that I had previously all but cleaned out. CO's up here have been busy. Quick find in the second place I looked. Thanks 1017288

We had been invited to attend a two year old birthday nearby today so while on the way decided to try for a couple of caches while in the area. We spent some time searching before finally resorting to reading the hint. Quick find after that. How many roses does one need to pick before winning the $1000 fine?
Lovely park with a multitude of blooms everywhere.
Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache 1017288
 
20-Oct-13
Quick fins in the second place I looked ... roses are blooming and I sniffed my around a few of the garden beds after signing the log. Thanks for the cache 1017288

Nice day in park having fun Smile

I have struggled to find caches today and this one took 3 looks in the same place before I found it. TFTC
 
06-Oct-13
Quick find in a wonderfull park!
The GPS was pointing to the wrong 'one' based on the hint.

18-Sep-13
Easy find. Glad to find it, second time lucky! TFTC!
 
10-Sep-13
Out giving a geocaching introduction to a new member, this was our first of 5 stops to give him a handle on the way this game works. TFTC!
 
26-Aug-13
Once I found it it was an "easy find", but I spent a lot of time barking up the wrong tree, so to speak. The GPS was out by a good 30m (I think it's the satellites being uncooperative, not that the the co-ords are wrong). Thank goodness for the hint!

TFTC.
 
24-Aug-13
GPS had me in the wrong spot initially but when I found the right GZ I didn't have to look for the cache as it was out in the open. Put it back where it should have been.

Thanks for the cache.
 
15-Aug-13
What a day to be out caching. Must be mad. It's blowing a gale and freezing. TFTH

looked at the likely places but saw nothing. Nice park to look at.

Decided to get a last day of caching in with skippy 46 before i go to bali in the morning. Had another successful day with 26 finds and no DNFS. Most caches were easy finds with a few that took a bit of searching and a couple of sneaky hides to make it a bit more interesting. Our last cache for the day and a quick find in a lovely rose garden, also congratulations skippy 46 on your 1400th find TFTC 1017288
 
03-Jul-13
A quick find here for my 1400th cache!!! I love this rose garden, especially in full bloom. Now we have achieved our targets for the day it's time to face peak hour and head home.

GSAGC #446. This cost me a $60 run to the airport at 0500 because the job had been double-booked and the other car got there ahead of me because the driver wasn't foolishly distracted by hunting for a cache [:o)] After kicking myself at this loss I swung through the city one last time and picked up a $110 fare to Yanchep... so Geocaching is good karma after all Big Grin TFTH.
 
17-Jun-13
cache was out in the open, so I signed the log and returned it to its rightful spot

Found @ 18:02!

FTF at new location!

Was just about to set off for a long walk to my nearest cache when my Mum called for a chat...
Just after she hung up, I received a notification that this cache had been re-enabled!
Perfect - this was only half the distance of the one I was thinking of going to!

Arrived at GZ and had a look around and poked everywhere the hint suggested, but found nothing! Sent an e-mail to the CO for help and took a walk around the rest of the garden before the sun set...

Returned to GZ to have another systematic search in the dark and received a reply from the CO!

Searched where I was directed and it was a quick but fiddly find (as you need to be careful not to damage the structure by being too rough)! Sure I must've felt it early on my search, but it didn't register as being the container!

Was initially looking for a 'small' container, so would suggest size gets changed to 'micro'...

Glad to see this cache reactivated so more people get to see this nice rose garden!

My coordinates:
S 31° 58.807 · E 115° 47.964

TFTC!

Sorry for the delay, I've been away so the new one should be up on the weekend
 
08-Apr-13
DNF @ 15:55.

This was supposed to be an easy find today just to fill a space in the calendar.

Unfortunately I was unable to locate it after a long search on the children's playground!

Put in a call for help from a previous finder and the response told me I had been searching the correct areas so after one more look, I had to call it a day...

Looks like this one is missing - perhaps a good opportunity to relocate it to one of the many other suitable locations that may arouse less suspicion...!

Quite an extensive rose garden here and a nice park for a geocache!

This cache may be missing...

Disabling after muggle activity new container up soon
 
27-Mar-13
Found it on the way to a event. THX
 
26-Feb-13
Kids never play in the playground early in the morning. That's because they are slackers and sleep in. No problems finding the cache with not a soul around. TFTC
 
04-Feb-13
Fortunately the area was deserted at midday. Signed log and then dusted off the collection of sand. Thanks for the cache 1017288.
 
04-Feb-13
Nobody around today made for a quick find. TFTH.
 
29-Jan-13
Good find TFTC
 
28-Jan-13
TFTH... A bit slow on this one but dodged the muggles to get the prize
 
28-Jan-13
Thankfully the sprinklers that cover the playground weren't on anymore and i could get to cache without getting wet. TFTC
 
28-Jan-13
good little cache did have to dodge the sprinklers on this one

Too us longer than it should have. Cheers

TFTC found with geofriend on a small evening hunt.
 
19-Jan-13
With three kids to help find it and play after, this one was a pleasure!
 
19-Jan-13
Good to arrive at a park and not have any kids around. Or is it?? It's the weekend! Where is everyone!? Quick find. TFTC!
 
15-Jan-13
Hot morning so the park was empty. Co-ords spot on for a very quick find.
 
14-Jan-13
I hate these type of hides , a single male roaming around kids playgrounds is a definite NO NO. There are plenty of places the cache could have been put so why put it on kids play equipment?? Did I mention that I HATE these type of hides???
NTFTH
 
10-Jan-13
We looked for this one on our way to our favorite dog park. Took us a while and even geodog was trying to help. Great park! Nice hide. Thanks for bringing us here!
 
08-Jan-13
I have found a cache here before... It's always nice to visit the rose garden again, however caches in playgrounds are sometimes a struggle for me, as I don't have any kids to bring with me. This time I was in luck as there was no one around, and I was doubly lucky as I recalled something another cacher said to me yesterday, which I don't think was in relation to this cache, but it turned out to be a huge help anyway, and I was able to make a relatively quick find.

Thanks for the cache 1017288!
 
07-Jan-13
Phew!!! finally found the container - glad no children played this area... Signed the log. Thanks 1017288 for organising the cache and hunt.
 
06-Jan-13
Quick park and grab this evening. SL TFTC

Found after I was passing by on New Years Day

We were again surprised to see a cache actually hidden on childrens playground equipment Surprised. This is frowned upon where we are from, as adults hanging around such equipment can be portrayed as somewhat devious ... but we're not there now, and have seen this type of hide a few times since we moved, so i'm assuming its quite normal [?] over here. The cache did not take too long to track down in the heat today (thankfuly), and like KB previously, i ended up with quite a liberal coating of very white sand on my liberal coating of sunscreen Wink. TFTC 1017288
 
29-Dec-12
Early morning, extremely slow bike ride to GZ. Eeny, meeny, miny, mo? Well, I chose mo and it turns out GZ was miny. Still, it didn't take long to track down the cache since there weren't many places it could be hidden. Signed the paper in the side with the writing on since that was the side that FelixII and Chrisgenin had signed. Home for a shower since my generous application of sunscreen had turned me into a lamington during the brief stop at GZ!! Thanks for the cache 1017288.
 
28-Dec-12
So after tackling a few caches down by the river we were heading home picking up a few of these newer caches then planning to head over to the nearby earthcaches.

This was next on our list so we pulled up on the opposite side to where we parked last time for the old cache here. Then noticed some people at GZ so after watching for a couple of minutes realised they must be geocachers as they werent using the equipment but looking at their phone! Surprised
Cool hopefully they have found it before we get there. Alas no they had not but they were in fact out on their FIRST day of geocaching so very pleased to meet you Chrisgenin and hope you continue to enjoy the GAME.

So Mr Felix poked around a bit in the obvious spots directed by the cache page and voile he had the cache in hand. Although there were 4 pages of paper in the cache but no other names on the log [?] [8)]

Off to the 3 nearby earthcaches next then home to cool down before Mrs Felix heads off to Nightshift! [|)]

A questionable FTF. Arrived at GZ 5min after cache was published. No one in sight. Took a while to eliminate the possibilities before coming up trumps at 8:45. There was already 3 names on the log but no time or date.
Regardless it was a good search. TFTC.
 
21-Dec-12
checked it today, no sign of the 3 undated logs
