A nice drive up this way to pick up a few caches for a challenge I'm working towards and joined by a couple of local geo friends.Thanks C.Ponies for placing this cache, it was a nice quick find for us here today.
Up this way a few hours before a meeting and picking up a few caches beforehand and this was one of them.TFTC
Over in this area today picking up a few caches as we drove by.llTFTCache C.Ponies
During my travels this afternoon, I parked across the road from this geocache and walked across. It probably would have been safer if I completed this geocache whilst heading home another day, but it all worked out today. The cache was quick to find, and nicely camouflaged. Furthermore, the cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks C.Ponies for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.----------This morning, [arewethere?](https://coord.info/PR2J301) and I made last-minute plans to kayak Bulwer Island and complete the [Wreck-cellent: Bulwer Island Ships Graveyard](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/WreckcellentBulwerIs) Adventure Lab before it got too hot and unbearable.In the afternoon, I attended [perpulady's 20th Anniversary Eat and Greet QLD](https://coord.info/GCAH924) lunch event in Albany Creek, and it was nice to see such a large crowd support the international visit. Subsequently, there were a few geocaches in the vicinity that were visited, which included a couple of nice walks, but the heat zapped my remaining energy, so I returned home to retire with a pool swim.
C.Ponies I found your cache Old Northern Lights on 15/4/2023, 9:55 am. This is my find 5003 and find # 3 today. A quick and easy drive by. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN

Easy find, I know when ever I see this it’s a geocache. Coming back home from an expo as one of the store holders, at club pine rivers.

Nice easy one! An ambulance passed by while I was searching. It was too busy to stop in the emergency bay and help though. TFTC!
Today Mrs Woodyrothwell was having an absolute shocker. She seemed to have lost the ability to get in the car without falling over. I’d be jumping in myself when I’d hear something (usually an expletive) and see her back on the ground holding the car door to stay upright.
She hadn’t even had a big night on the shandies to blame it on. I checked in case she had a middle ear infection and had no balance or had misread a prescription label and eaten a whole packet of pills.
No, it was just her trying to get in a car without looking because all her attention was focused on her phone. tftc

Somehow I missed the turnoff so the ‘park and grab’ turned into a ‘park 800m up the road and walk back down’. Never mind, I needed the exercise. Had to put my thinking cap on for this one. Just the right amount of challenge for a late afternoon effort. TFTC
Clever hide. Have seen a couple of these before in the city. Lots of cars passing by so had to be quick but easy grab sign and replace unseen. TFTC
Headed out for a few caches this afternoon and tried my eye at this one. Nice easy park and find. #1 for today. Logs sheet was soaked so added a dry sheet to the pack. With the log signed, I'm off to the next one. TFTC, TFTH & TFTSF
Haha took me and my dad a minute to find but after a fair bit of searching we were successful
Drove past and made a find
Thank you for hiding this geocache C.Ponies

Out walking on this beautiful day with my muggle friend who occasionally accompanied me on my caching adventures and found this one quickly as had seen a few like this before. Tftc
Got our little squiggle on the paper even tho it is super super wet. Love a good old park and grab.
Thanks for the cache

Quick stop before a storm rolled through. Love this hide, my first one like it! TFTC!
I'm sure finding a cache qualifies as an emergency so we made the quick stop and grab.

I decided that turning this into a smilie was definitely an emergency so parked right at GZ for the quick find. TFTC C.Ponies
That’s the first of that type of cache that I have seen. Flukes parking at the exact spot. TFTC
Ohhh how I hate caching on busy roads, I always manage to make myself look so suspicious, I can't help it..
So as I was trying to search in-between traffic, a giant truck decided to park just in front of me. "Greeeeat" But after a quick look at the logs I came across a hint and spotted it straight away.
Find #678 - TFTC

Quick find this morning to close out another hole in my caching calendar.
It's becoming increasing more difficult given the distance I need to travel each morning.
I still have about 80 to go but I'm going to give it a crack

A quick find as we’ve seen this type of hide before! Out and about with Frannymfrog trying to pick up some caches over the weekend! TFTC! Found with Frannymfrog logged as 3K!
Yay ! Nice easy find with potatochips101 (3K).
Decided caching today was definitely more fun than being stuck inside on this wild windy day. TFTC !

Nice quiet day on the roads, perfect for a quick stop n grab. We have been wanting to stop here for some time now. TFTC
I’d been here before but chickened out. Today krcamber came with me and she was straight onto it! TFTC
We have looked 3 time before! Being new To this have never seen this type before but the description is accurate
Great hide! First of its type we'd seen No issues being spotted, though I imagined (as previous cachers have mentioned) someone may drop by to check if you're in distress cheers for a great morning of caching. TFTC
Winter the Geo-cat needed a day out, as did Mr & Mrs VC, so we decided a short run across the bridge would be a good way to start our day & pick up a few solved puzzles & assorted other caches.
Trying not to look too obvious to passing muggles in their cars, but not too concerned as they were fairly hooting along, I began to look for the cache.
Fairly sure I knew the location it would be but drew a blank first up.
Then a lady with a couple of kids in the car pulled into the layback to check if I was OK as they had seen me bending over a little back from the Geo-Beast & thought I was ill.
How nice that they took the time to stop.
I explained that I was caching to which they smiled & said "Oh, OK!" before proceeding on their travels.
Back to business & it was a quick find.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

Found on a walk this morning. Glad I didn't have to bee too suspicious for the traffic
A quick grab for team Nelta on our way home from dinner. Great hide. No probs here finding in the dark.
Very nice park and grab this evening. Much quieter at night with very few cars zooming by.
We made a quick find on this one thanks to the fact that we have found a few of these ones so knew what we were looking for. TNLNSL TFTC
Found just after dark (sorry, didn't see the attributes). Didn't take too long to find, although we have seen these before. TFTC
This one was quite straight forward when you consider the name of the cache and what you have at GZ. Paperwork completed and cache replaced where found. TFTC
