Glad to have turned this one into a smiley .much easier than the first time. Thank you
After the snap 3 day lockdown thanks to “The Covid” I thought I’d go caching... this was a quick find... as others have mentioned, it’s become detached, and the log is almost full... tftc...
Blue boy found it pretty much straight away but I’m not the troll type and way too many cobwebs for me so I let him do the deed as it were ......TYFC
I had enough time this afternoon for a few more smilies; so pulled over near this one for another hunt. Not the kind of pine I was expecting I followed the gps to the obvious spot and soon had the container in hand. The cache is still attached to the fastening device, but this has come out of wherever it was attached. I found the container and its attachment sitting together in a hidey hole covered in some natural camo. I added my name to the log and returned it where I'd found it. Tftc Gullivers Travels54
Looked with my cousin at nighta couple days ago, and we fear that the recent rain has changed the circumstances of the cache
Dnf couldn't find it looked for around about 1.5 hours think it might be submerged under water at the moment will come back and try to find it but for now no luck
An excellent hiding place, I loved this one. Had me searching here and there for a few minutes before I located the sneaky bugger. TFTC!
Another Logan find for me this sunny arvo.
Sometimes I just feel lucky in places like this, quick find
Thank you for hiding this one

Yay...couldn't find it yesterday. Came back today and got it almost straight away. Awesome hide
Pretty sure we were following on the heels of another team. Log getting close to full. Great spot as both pretty and discrete. TFTC
Excellent little hiding spot! Friend of mine was here for his first geocache! Thank you
1.25pm. It may have been luck but Kim spotted this as soon as we started to lokk.
Thank you. David and Kim.
Thank you. David and Kim.
On an early morning drive to nab a few caches and this one had me going around in circles, love those logs that say 'nice quick find' though, but reading the previous logs did help me find the well placed hide afterall.

Mein erster in Australien!
Nach kurzer Suche mit anderem Blickwinkel gut gefunden.
Schon dafür gibt es einen Favouritenpunkt.

Found while going to a bit of fishing in the lagoon. Log signed and replaced in its sneaky little hiding place. Thank you very much for the cache.
I had a sore shoulder for days after retrieving this little beauty...must have been all the bending and reaching. Happy to finally find it and sign log and replace for next person. My advice would be if you think you are in the right spot you probably are as coords were spot on, just turn your head and you'll no doubt find it.

Dropped Chikinlittle off at a girl guide event at Marsden and decided to find a few caches in the area whilst she was there. Chikinlitler and Mrs EMC had a fun day around this lagoon and Waterford. This cache was really quick to find. TFTC.
Another sneaky hide!! Well done! Thank you for fun and search and thanks for the cache!!
I had to work a twelve hour day shift today, so on my way through to work this morning I knew I had to grab a cache on the way or my streak would be broken!
I had intended to do the one just up the road from this one called Up There Cazaly, but there was a couple of muggles at the dog park there this morning when I pulled up. I went for a walk, but they were still there when I got back, and didn't look to be in a hurry to leave [?]
So as I was starting to run out of time I had to put plan B into action, and that was pull up stumps and head down to this one
Cache container found after a short search and logsheet extracted and signed
Then everything replaced as found, ready for the next visitor to come and find
Then I had to head off to work before I was late!
I'm working again tomorrow (Christmas Day) so hopefully no muggles in the dog park tomorrow [^]

Quick easy find after a chat with a couple of little children who were telling about the sheep that they saw on a walk with their Mum. They went and I was able make a quick grab, signed the log and replaced the cache then off to grab another cache. TFTC
After having a test run with our new tinny on the Logan River, decided to find a few caches before heading home.
Parked across the road and walked in to GZ and after a look around possible places, cache was found nicely tucked away in its hide. Logsheet signed and cache returned to its hide.

I seem to be having a bit of luck with tricky hides at the moment. I pulled over to the side of the road and, after checking that the car parked there was indeed empty, followed my GPS to GZ. The cache was in the first place I looked.
Because I found it so quickly, I had a bit of spare time so I wandered along the path to the lake, passing the cows and sheep in the adjacent paddock and watching the water birds including a black swan and listening to the little willy wagtails. A most pleasant way to spend a lunch time.
Or it was, until I decided to find out more about the lake and found a news article from April saying that it had been closed dues to unsafe levels of E.coli. Amusingly, right next to a sign warning about contact with the water was a guy throwing out crab pots. I hope he doesn't sell his catch to restaurants.

Looked there last night as the rain hammered down. It got to heavy so we bailed. But after returning today. I realised I seen it yesterday but didn't realise. Tftc.
Nifty hide and since the fairy dust didn't fit we sprinkled invisible fairy dust all over the area thanks GT
Headed back towards Brisbane and this was next on the list to visit.
A quick stop and no one around.
Headed the way of the GPS.
After a little search, the cache was located.
Signed the log and returned cache to hide.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Gullivers Travels54
All good with this cache

A leisurely morning of geocaching and this was one we were able to get. Thanks to Gullivers Travels54 for placing this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the location.
At last I can put this cache to rest. It was in the first place I looked the last time I was here. I am not sure why I couldn't find it last time. Today I looked in exactly the same place, no joy. I look further afield near anything that resembled a pine tree no joy. I then remember Gullivers telling me to look in the exact co-ordinates. I give it one more try and sure enough there it was.
Myself and GeoDad were out and about this morning grabbing a few of the caches in the area that I had not previously found. We arrived at the GZ and of course began our search in the wrong area before I thought 'what if the cache is actually over there...and not where you would obviously expect it to be?'. With that in mind GeoDad put his eagle eyes to the test and soon spotted something that shouldn't really be there... Great work!! the old man made easy work of this one. Lucky, because otherwise we could have been looking for a long time. SL TFTC
We found the clue a little misleading by a few metres but all is perfect here in this beautifully hidden little cache with its shiny new log! It's a glorious day for a trek like this, Tftc!
Tricky little hide. Samsung phone coords spot on today. Found at 11.20 am on 14th April 2015. TFTC.
Out with Selva Girls to do some of the caches for the February challenge.
We stopped to do this one as we were passing right by it on our way between stages of a nearby multi (well, to be honest, it was only on the way because we each made a mistake entering the coordinates for said multi).
A very well hidden and tricky little cache.

Out with Rhyssa6 for an afternoon of caching. We decided to stop at this one between waypoints of a nearby multi. Well thats what we thought. Later, we discovered that we had both entered a different wrong digit into the cords for said multi and that we didnt have to go past this cache at all!!! Anyway, stop at this cache, we did. My notoriously inaccurate phone kept telling me that the cache was in one spot, whilst Rhyssa6s told her that it was in another. So we searched our own areas. Eventually, I decided that my phone was wrong and decided to help Rhyssa6 search hers. Not long after, she had her hands on this sneaky cache. Log signed and cache returned to its spot
A few drive by caches this afternoon while the ferals were fast asleep on the back seat. We tried two others around the lake but it was muggle central at both of them so we swung round to this side and the place was deserted. Well except for a couple of monks over the road that is, looks like an odd looking place.
Anyway I jumped out and headed for GZ. A few minutes of looking and the clever hide came into view. There was still no one around so I added my name to the log on the bridge then a muggle came around the corner. Wow, I've never seen someone walk so slow in my life, it felt like forever before he was out of sight so I could rehid the cache.
Another great hide, thanx GT54.

Found at 2.02pm and saw a few monks in house across the world reminds me of the many time I've been to Thailand and even have a monk photo on the wall at home will add pic soon.
TFTC quick find and made me think of many great memories!

An excellent hiding spot. GPS was a little out but the iPhone hit the spot exactly. Found with jammo25. TFTC
GPS send us crazy but phone sent us to the spot, go figure, I am giving this a favourite because I love the thought that went into it.TFTC
Continuing they epic adventure with IolantheK. Made our way to GZ and again had the caching eyes on again. I was the right side of it to spot it quickly. TFTC
Out and about on a binge Friday with Nurseyjulie. GZ was obvious and another quick find here. TFTC, Gullivers Travels54.
