Grey nomads travelling around Australia in our caravan. Held up a bit due to Covid19 and major knee surgery, so currently in Queensland only, but there are plenty of caches in our home state that we have not yet found.

Currently, we are farm sitting near Rockhampton for three months, so hoping to clear out Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Gracement, Gladstone and Mt Morgan!!!

Today after an aborted attempt at getting to see a doctor in Gracemere, we decided instead to beat the almost daily afternoon storm, and find a couple of caches. This was one of two we searched for and found. And got home before the storm.

It really is a strange form of activity that brings us to bridges to find eclipse tins! But I suppose it is about the numbers. And as we have a friend in South Australia who is creeping up on us (as at yesterday they were only 8 behind us) we have to go for quantity, not quality.

Thanks for the hide Brooksy Clan

A terrible smell along the track but covered out noses and carried on.. found thanks heaps book is full
 
30-Mar-18
Well, I knew what to look for and where to look for it, but cache did not come to hand, despite a thorough search. Thought I would search on the other side of the road in case someone might have moved it, but there was a red back spider living in there, so didn't bother putting my hand in.

Brahms6 found this one on a visit to the offspring in Gracemere. The cache had a guard you can view it in photos. TFTC

No traffic this early so an easy grab leaving Gracemere for Brisbane. Tftc
 
22-Jan-18
I'm sorry Brooksy Clan I didn't see the point of this placement. Either walking inside the barriers or coming up through the rocks off the old road was risky and great care needed to be taken. This appears to be a cache for the sake of a cache and no other reason.
 
21-Jan-18
Definitely a bit close to traffic but still a good hide
 
16-Dec-17
A lot of really long grass to walk through, be careful and wear appropriate footwear.
Thanks for the cache!

There once was a family of five,
Who travelled this way for a drive.
To find caches they look,
In each cranny and nook,
A good way to rest and revive! [^]

Found with mum and dad on our roadtrip to Cannonvale.

The Esky family are travelling north from Toowoomba for the holidays to visit friends at Cannonvale. The perfect opportunity to tick off caches for the Well-Travelled Cacher Challenge. A slight detour off the main drag for this one but the best cache available for this distance. Very grateful for the parking instructions in the description. Thankfully a straightforward find. Thanks Brooksy Clan.

Found in a quick stop and grab while traveling back home to mackay. This road is certainly busier than i thought it would be but then today is a special day being Anzac day. So here is remembering all the brave men and women who fought. Some lived, some died and some still serve to protect the wonderful freedom we have come to know and love in australia. And here is to their families and the sacrifices they make daily, willingly. And unselfishly. Thank you all . You will not be forgotten.
