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 within 7 days, 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.

Another cache by this CO which is obviously in need of attention but no apparent response has occurred.
A Needs Maintenance was logged on 29/01/2015 stating the cache had accidentally been dropped over the fence onto private property & was unable to be retrieved without trespassing.
A DNF was logged on 15/02/2015 which seems to indicate no action has been taken as yet.
The cache has now been missing for 2 months.
The CO has been inactive since August 2015, 7 months ago.
I feel this cache should be archived to stop future searchers wasting their time & to free the area for another CO.

**NEEDS ARCHIVED!**

The cache has dropped over the fence and needs retrieving.

Quick park and grab.

However: geokid3 put it back by throwing it over the fence! Sorry! I didn't want to go into the people's garden so I'm afraid it's still there :/

Had dropped the kids off with the in laws but had some time before work so decided to grab a few caches. This was number 2 on my list.
Had read the description so walked up to the fence wondering if anyone was watching. Saw no cats and only a neighbour further up the street.
Found quickly.
It's very nice of the neighbours to allow this here. So a big thank you to them and you for placing.

Found with parents (fng_affl) - forgot to log it

This was our second time here to this cache - the first time we visited neither of us felt comfortable enough to search in someone's front yard. This time we bit the bullet and made a quick find. Still felt uncomfortable though. TNLNSL TFTC
 
18-Sep-15
I pulled up next door and sat and read the description to make sure that I was in the right spot and then headed up the footpath and soon spotted the cache. I did the work and then replaced it without spotting a soul.

TFTC.

I always feel a little conspicuous doing these front yard residential finds. TFTC.

This was my 31st find and 27th different DT combination so far today - all gathered in my quest to qualify and complete the Unique Difficulty/Terrain Challenge (Qld) - GC5C5PB.

I have been going flat out for about 11 hours now and I'm now starting to tire a little. This should be a quick easy find. So I pull up, a little concerned about sticky beaking around some one's fence. But the description says go for it and I need the DT combo, so I do. A run over the fence and nothing is jumping out at me.

Then the CO's husband turns up, backs the car in and I'm sprung. He is wondering what sort of weirdo is hanging around his fence. Never fear - I introduce myself, explain what I am up to and he helps me find it. Thanks for the help! Nice to meet you.

On to the next. Thanks for the cache, MagnetGirl_au!

Aaaahh! Christmas eve. Beaudy!! I'm going out to Costco to fill up my 4WD with diesel, and to do a bit of last minute shopping. It's hot. I'm taking icewater and the GeoSchnauzers to help me get in my ration of geocaching for the day.

Here's another easy one, once I opened my eyes anyway. I waved, but I don't think anyone saw me. I left the GeoSchnauzers in the car for this one. Thanks, MagnetGirl.

Out and about today with IolantheK for a bit of caching on the north side. Big Grin
Most of the caches I found today, IolantheK has already found, but she did come for the walk to this one. Big Grin
A quick drive by here. Smile
Thanks for the cache.

Out on the other side of Pine River to grab as many of the local unfound caches as I can as I head towards a milestone. I dropped by this one for a very quick locate, extract, sign, replace and skadaddle. I waved as I left, somewhat shyly. Helloooo to you.

Thanks for placing this cache, MagnetGirl_au. Found in good condition.

Out on a freaky Friday with IolantheK rounding up some smileys. It's always odd doing caches in front yards. Nice easy find here. Don't think we looked too suss, well no mjore than we do at the best of times ;-P

It's Freaky Friday with teamdfl again Big Grin Always feels strange looking for a cache in a suburban street, but apparently everyone living nearby knows it's here Surprised As the Description says, it was a very quick find. I made sure to wave at the house, but didn't see anyone peeking out Razz TFTC, MagnetGirl_au.

Trying to clean up the new caches that appeared while we travelled overseas and doing it slowly as male membsec has been unwell since we got home. Reached GZ and about to do the search when a neighbour parked in the next door driveway and looked at us very strangely. We paused while he unloaded and disappeared, then looked at the obvious, spotted the 2nd most obvious and just about to sign when "hello" from the CO in her house. Great to meet you MagnetGirl, hope to see you at other caches or events.

Needing a cache for the day, we hit Redcliffe first. Unable to even attempt those spots because of muggles.

So head across to this way for a nice quick find.

Log signed, cache replaced.

Awesome hide! And lovely to meet you! TFTC!

No. 437

Geodaughters 1 and 2 had a play date planned for a couple of blocks away from this cache, so I decided to pick up the cache on the way home. I felt a bit strange "skulking" outside a stranger's home, however the cache description clearly says that we are welcome at this particular cache.

As soon as I hopped out of the car, I spotted the anomaly and made a quick grab, taking it back to the car to do the signing, etc. G1 wanted to replace the cache, so after grabbing the TB (we'll attempt to move it quickly) she also got out of the car and put the cache back once I showed her where it went. The CO may want to double check the lid is on securely. I had trouble getting it to tighten fully as it seemed to be one of those screw lids that loosen once you get past a certain point with tightening. I ended up leaving it as tight as I could get it, but it doesn't hurt to have it checked by the CO Smile.

We did wave, but I don't think anyone was home.

Thanks for the cache MagnetGirl_au. It was a pity we didn't get to meet you in person.

Dropping in another travel bug. This is an easy way to disperse TB's. Also checking in two I found yesterday from other users.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 11:24pm. What an interesting place for a cache. It was found quite quickly and it's in good condition. Out: TB. TFTC

out on a bike ride this afternoon. Maybe we try to look like we are fixing a flat? Very hard area to be stealthy. So instead we concentrated on seeking. Found quickly. Took a TB. TFTC

Found @ 1140 hrs

I was doing a bit of work in North Lakes and decided we would pick up a couple of quick caches before heading back up the coast. Big Grin

We parked right next to GZ, but we waited for a car to puill away before we went in to the retrieval. We took the cache back to the Geovan and we signed the log and replaced it as we found it. Razz

Nice park and grab. We waved but I don't think anyone was home. Wink

Cache found in good dry condition.

Super easy drive by. Thank you for the fun,.

Saw this pop up the other day and was surprised that the regular FTF folk took their sweet time. We came up from another nearby cache and looked hard at the fence. Hmmm, what looks out of place? Well that does... Nope. Then of course. Retrieved the logbook and signed in the car then grabbed the quite weighty Biff TB and replaced it with another. Does it look familiar? Another smiley on the map. tftc MagnetGirl au

Nyssaflutterby and I had just dropped off Captain Terror after a big day's hiking. Nyssaflutterby was going through her emails on her phone and announced to me that an FTF was begging in Kallangur. Mmmmhmmm. I can't say I was super-jazzed about more caching after such a big day - but to coin a meme, one does not simply say no to Nyssaflutterby when there is an FTF to be had Razz

Nyssaflutterby read out the description to me. Mmmmhmmm again. Perhaps it's just me, but I really find caches on or near private property very difficult. But NyssaFlutterby seemed more brazen than I. We pulled up at GZ. First thing I did was get out and get my jacket.. Nyssaflutterby was bounding toward GZ and possibly another FTF. NyssaFlutterby was having no luck and I started to move over to help her.. very reluctantly.

Then I saw the hide. I pointed it out to NyssaFlutterby who promptly swooped on it and took the prize back to the car. We opened the cache to find we got a joint *FTF* @ 7.20pm. Oh thank God. We hurriedly signed the cache and Nyssaflutterby bounded back to re-hide it. She had the cache returned in record time and we were off!

I don't know why I feel so uneasy about private property hides - but I managed to get through this one with help from NyssaFlutterby. We didn't see anyone.. or any felines scoping us out last night Razz
