18-Sep-16
Up in Toowoomba for a choir camp at Glennie, coincidentally during C of F.
This was my first find of the w/e and took me a while. I blame my sunglasses because I was going back and forth between trees before resorting to the photos.
Once seen, you wonder how you could have missed it!
Log etc was a bit wet and log is now full.
But a great use of the container so TFTC!

I'm in Toowoomba for a few days of camping and caching by myself Big Grin

Day 2, and it's been a grand day out with the pleasure of kestal's company, but after dropping her off, I went on a solo run for an hour or two. Ohhh, that'd be awful if it was real Sad I made sure to give it a poke just to make sure before I grabbed the container. TFTC, CarrieTayAidenAndrew.

I had to come to Toowoomba to have some work done on my car so I took the opportunity to have a couple of days with TriciaC2 and do some caching today.

We were on our way home but I wanted one more find to give me a nice round number for the day. We'd already noticed this one on the map so this was it. My GPS had me searching the wrong tree for a while but TriciaC2 soon spotted it in the right tree and called me over.

Nice container. [:p]

Well we had a bit of good ole fashioned fun at this one. One of our team has a rather severe aversion to 8 legged freaks....... As mentioned in the previous logs, no log book was in evidence. We scrambled and found paper and zip lock bag from the car and duly signed and placed snugly in the cache container. A day of geocaching with my great mates Muff1. Not an early start, but we did start and finish. TNLN TFTC.

Caching with Speedmistress today and I should have known better with this cache. I have no love for these creatures plastic or real, especially when the other two legged creatures were just standing there with their arms folded. I will get even. SL TFTC

Heading north after a couple of days in my birthplace so selected a few caches to guide me in the right direction. This certainly woke me up! I had also seen that water tower from all points of the compass so took a few pics for a Waymark - two for the price of one. Thanks CTAA.
