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

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

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.

We DNF'd 1 caches today. [:(!]
[red]We spent quite some time here at around 11:33:00 AM, but couldn't locate your cache, so a DNF from us.
[/red]Ian and Penny

The cache "#6 A Country Drive"
* Was last found on 8/02/2015, and has had 8 DNF's (not including ours) since that time.
* A cacher returned with a previous finder on 8 August & couldn't find it.
* A prior "Needs Maintenance" log is now over 28 days old and the CO has not responded.

Given this history could a reviewer please temporarily disable this cache pending a response from the owner.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Couldn't find it. Neighbouring house owner said the telegraph pole has never been replaced, so that's not the reason for it missing.

Returned to spot with finder mannamo. Definitely MIA!

This one eluded us.
Had a pretty thorough look around but there is a strong indication this may not be here.
Can the CO please check & confirm the caches presence or absence?

TFTC Outback Di

Methinks CO may need to send out a search party. Cache seems to be MIA.

Add me to the growing list of DNF's. In spite of previous heavy hitters not making the find, I spent some time scrabbling around looking for cache so I could say I tried.

Unable to locate

Today, we planned to do a few series in the outskirt suburbs of Brisbane.
We started with The Beatles Trail, then had A Country Drive, and finished with the
Ooooo Shiny run. We found the 11 Beatles and the final puzzle, had 1 DNF in the Country,
found all in the Ooooo Shiny, and picked up a few others while in the area.
We thoroughly enjoyed all the great hides, while driving around such a beautiful part of Queensland.

We didn't expect to find this one, as it has a few DNF's, but we stopped for a quick look anyway.

Not successful in our search for this one. Thanks Outback Di

Tried to find it, no luck

Decided to give this Country Drive trail a go today while we were out this way today. This one was a nice quick find for us to finish off the trail. TNLNSL TFTC

Very quick find but could not get log out to sign.

After a bit of business in Burpengary this morning I headed out and grabbed a few caches in the area. I'd missed this one when I grabbed a few of the others and it was another pleasant drive through the country to GZ. This one was a quick and easy find today.

Once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Tftc quick and easy

NRN: Out and about today just me and Suzi. Got a milestone coming up and I wanted to sort out the mess on my map around here - stars aligned and here I am.

Quick find between passing vehicles - wow this is a busy road today.

Thanks for placing this cache, Outback Di. Found in good condition.
{Find 51 of 70 today. Big day}

11:40 Followed the clues given and spotted cache without too much bother.

Great trip with the geokids TFTC

Found it

Isn't Theodore Rd a cracker. Moosemobile is now a ball of dust. Found the cache easily enough and signed while the mooselings poked at a dead snake with a stick. Ah, the countryside... tftc Outback Di

Thanks for this lovely series. A very pretty part of the world. TFTC

TFTC. Teeny weeny.

Commencing the country in reverse owing to our direction of ravel from home, and this appears to be our first. Parked up in a safe spot, found this one in a jiffy. All is safe and well here, found as part of the souvenirs of August. TFTC

Found with MtnLioness and Nitram67. Great day out. TFTC

Found on a lovely warm day. Thank you.
Had fun with the stinky puff balls

3:41

After attending jewellery party nearby drove up this road to see if it had changed since the time I was here about a year ago.
Why not grab these at the same time.
Thanks for the hide Outback Di
#303

Thanks for the cache

Tftc. Nice drive too!

Tiny little minx. Fortunately there are a few implements around to help remove the log book.

An easy one but I reckon it's worth a fave for being hidden almost in plain site. cache all good. Thanks Outback Di.

That's the smallest I have ever seen to date. Nice work geo mum.

In the country and yes having a quiet drive, found this one quickly. Thanks Outback Di I've enjoyed this series.

Relogging this under individual account, previously a member of Gaz'n'Kab account.

Previously logged under a team account. Re-logging with my individual account.

We were out and about today with Fangsoki, Radnoski and Captain Terror, and decided to pop into this cache first A nice quite spot here, and with all of our fresh bruises from paintball, we climbed out of the car, and signed the logbook

It is not every day you get a chance to shoot Fangsoki, Captain Terror and Gaz (of Gaz'n'Kab) with paintballs but today we decided to all be on the same team during our nearby skirmish.

The Orange team consisted of the four of us and about 16 other strangers. For most of the day we were in a skirmish against the white team. Our main target on the white team was a bloke he decided that it would be a clever idea to play paintball without a shirt on. I asked him during the day if he had lost a bet and he told me "That's just the way I play". Needless to say the tough guy attracted a lot of attention from the other players and ended the day looking a bit more red than he started.

We took a slight detour and grabbed this one on the way back to the main road. Thanks for the cache Outback Di.

Find number 1838.... so here is something you didn't know (or maybe did know) about 1838...... (speaking of a bit of a skirmish).... The Battle of Lacolle was fought on November 7, 1838 between Loyal Lower Canada volunteer forces under Major John Scriver and Lower Canada rebels under Colonel Ferdinand-Alphonse Oklowski. On November 6, on their way to Lacolle, the Patriote rebels had won a first skirmish, but they lost in the final confrontation the next day. The battle lasted half an hour.

Anyone watching our little group this today might have wondered what on earth we had been up to. All sweaty, dirty, exhausted and yellow in places. Fangsoki, Radnoski, Gaz of Gaz'n'Kab and myself had spent the morning playing paintball nearby and upon our finishing there, decided we should make the short detour to grab this cache - being the closest and all.

Fang piloted the Mondeo down the dusty road and parked us on the side of the road. I had no GPSr with me, so was following the crowd on this one. Gaz was the first to spot it and quickly had a logbook out for us to all sign. I can't say I've been up this way before, but nice to grab a smiley for the day too. TFTC Outback Di

Captain Terror, Gaz from Gaz'n'Kab, Radnoski, and I had been busy being targets for others at nearby paintball. We decided it would be plain rude not to get this cache that was nearby.

I drove the Mondeo on the dustiest of roads and pulled up when our pointers said zero. I was still fluffing about when Gaz just marched straight to a GZ and found the cache. Sod It was in good condition.

I'd never been in this area before - despite living close by. TFTC Outback Di

A quick find here as we took Di's tour of the country. Geogirls spotted this one and signed the log and we were off to the next stop (being a bit backwards ourselves this was how we did Di's Country Drive ) Tftc Outback Di!

A quick find here! Thanks for the tour of the area!

Found Ok

Quite a few caches appeared while we were away so we decided to go out and about today on our last day of caching in Qld for the year. Putting off the house work and the packing. We haven't been on these roads before and we really enjoyed the country drive. Nice quick find and that's how we like them!

TFTC

Found while on my caching run in this area today.
I’ve never explored the area around here so it was and enjoyable time driving all the country roads finding the caches in this series.
Another few nice house around this vicinity. The GPS was pretty accurate which helped me grab this one easily.

Out with IolantheK on a freaky Friday, rounding up some caches we had both not done. Not being known for doing things as they were intended this was the first in the series for us. The road was quite busy this morning. We though one local was going to stopand offer us help, but he kept going

It's Freaky Friday with teamdfl again This series was along our way, but (not surprisingly for us) we did it backwards This was a very neat little hide. TFTC, Outback Di.

Headed into the Country for a Sunday afternoons Drive. A quick park and grab for the last of the series . Thanks Outback Di for bringing us to an area we would otherwise never have found. TNLNSL TFTC .

Loved this trail. Thanks Outback Di.

TFTC

A quick find here. Long day caching out in Burpengary and surrounds. TFTC

Big day out at Burpengary and surrounds with Karenhippo and lucky for us, it was a bit cooler.

No geese here! A quick find for us today.

Liked the soirée into the countryside!

TFTC Outback Di

A caching morning and we decided to follow Di's Country Drive. Started with #6 and worked back as that's closest to home.
Quick find for this one

Thanks Di

Lovely afternoon for a Country Drive. Glad I took note of the name of this series and didn't try to bike it! Finished off #6. A great series... just have to come back for that pesky #4. TFTC

Nice quick find. TFTC

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Jinga2 at 4:20pm. What an interesting drive in an area with interesting homes and views. An interesting placement for this cache and it's in good condition. TFTC

Yahhhh @ long last we know who the FTF is good on you Nysa .. Just luv the antics of the night caching ... The thought of an axe murderer & loosing your head ... Your a crack up girl ...lol ....... It is a lovely drive out that way ..... Took us quite a while to go out there also .....again CONGRATS .......

Thanks Outback Di for the country drive series. Found number six and signed the log .

Found at 0939. A quick find. I was surprised to see as much traffic go by as I was signing the log. TFTC.

Wish I had not left that extraction tool at #2. Thanks for the tour and a favourite for that.

Last one of the series and pulled up at GZ.
Neighbouring dog was letting out a yip but no one came to investigate.
Used the trusting extraction tool and signed and replaced the cache.
Quite a few cars passed by around the corner, but I was turning around and heading home.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Outback Di All good with this cache and thanks for a great series.

Found it, yes! Wrote on it, no

Di, for the life of me, I could not get the log out, even though I had tweezers.

But I was there! Honest I was! I took a picture of my big boofy hand holding the cache, but then I thought "not a good idea to put that up here"...!

SO who was the FTF ?????????? mysterious ....or been to busy to write up yet lol...well done to the Maldi's as this was there 1st night run .......also Barb for beating fasted 59 out of the car first go girl .(especially @ that hour of the morning .).....this does not finish here 5 more have been placed ...gee I hope I was a bit kinder ...hahahaha have to wait & see ...

Having had no luck at #4, we decided to head over for this one before heading back with more light.

Barb had this in her hand before I had even got out of the car.

Signed log, cache replaced.

TFTH

This intersection is surprisingly busy.TFTC

bit further on our country drive

had this one in hand before fasted could get out of the car properly

starting to get a little light now

I had not been on a FTF frenzy for a little while, so when I saw this series come out I was an eager beaver to get out and about. I revved Spangle and off we zoomed down Dayboro Rd. I have never driven this part of Brisbane before and was a little anxious to be heading into the dark scary night. I arrived at GZ and found the cache within seconds. YAY! *FTF* for me, insert happy cacher dance! I signed the log and then replaced the cache as found.
