Hi moo73,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm 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 listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

I had a wander around the nearby area of The Woods today picking up some caches and decided this one was not too far away. To start I was looking at the wrong tree but then I spotted it. Everything wet and no log so I placed a piece of paper in a small plastic bag for the log. Tftc

Found it on my way home from work. This cache was surprisingly trick to find, in fact I walked back and forth for way too long and ended up back where I'd started, only to spy the cache from a short distance away, visible without moving anything. It was a real "doh" moment! Signed and replaced the cache as found and headed home for much-needed rest. Thank you for placing and maintaining this cache.

Finally got to try geocaching after ages of wanting to- was harder and took us longer than we thought but was really fun!
 
12-Dec-17
The trek to the cache was fun. Went pass a few parks and creeks in parts of the town previously unexplored, came across a WW2 artillery gun on display. The box was well hidden from first glance but it will be found on a closer inspection. The box is quite old judging from the first recorded signature.
Overall it was fun. Thank you for the adventure
