I was going home this way today and really wanted to amend a blue face here,so yesterday was talking to a previous finder who gave me a clue as to where it might be.TFTC
My husband and i are on the way back to Brisbane from a road trip to Sydney and i thought that this cache looked interesting and wondered if we could find it during the day. It has been unloved for such a long time. At GZ we were amazed by this very cute little cemetery and my husband spotted the cache almost straight away. The log book and instructions were very wet so i put them on our bonnet of the car while we took a look around at the graves. some really nicely kept ones and different types of plants on some of them. Like a grave with the surname Bromel and it is filled with Bromes. Now the log book was dry we put it all together with also some waterproof paper and headed off. THanks for taking us to this really cute cemetery, somewhere we would never have gone if not for geocaching . Giving it a FP for the great night time idea and the location
This was made a bit easier for me by having a previous finder with me today and the very large tree at the back of the cemetery has been cut down. tftc
Out showing a friend about geocaching and we decided since I hadn't found this one to give it a go even though it was daylight.
What a lovely small cemetery which would be easy to drive passed and not even know it's there.
After a bit of a search we found something that fitted in with the hint and soon had cache in hand. Signed as Mystery Sleuth and Kath.

came back to finally make a find on this one. A nice little cache at a nice little cemetery. Thanks earthly for performing maintainece on this one and for the cache.
checked in here after reported dnfs...couldnt locate cache at first..whilst readying replacement robbieracer66 wandered around amongst the graves and spotted our cache...someone had "appropriated" our cache to adorn their loved ones resting place..we left that cache where it was as it no longer functioned as we needed it to...new cache in place...
hopefully this one will go unnoticed by non caching folk..happy caching

tried this one again tonight, and couldn’t see any light whatsoever. i think it might need a check
after a tip from the co i came back out here and after wandering around again i still couldn’t spot anything in the pitch black. thanks anyway
came out here tonight and couldn’t even start this one. walked around the starting area for about 15 minutes looking for any kind of reflector and came up with nothing. thanks anyway cool little graveyard
I returned today after seeing that the missing cache had been replaced for a quick find.
Cache replaced today....many thanks to the lovely Mystery Sleuth for the kind prompt to get this one back in play

A month later there is no response form the owner to the DNFs and Needs Maintenance logs.
Time to go?

It was'nt exactly night, more like dusk but it was dark enough under the tree canopy. I could'nt spot anything, I even PAF who guided me on what to look for and roughly where but I gave up after 20 mins.
Needs checking on, not found for over 2 years, recent DNF's and last maintenance check also over 2 years ago.
Spent over 1/2 an hr looking for the light without success. 2 sets of eyes had no idea what we were looking for ...reflector...light....nothing! For 1.5 D it's sure bloody hard.
Unfortunately it was Six thirty and the sun was up this morning,looked around for some white reflectors or something but the sun was shining brightly.I'll try to find an opportunity some time,thanks.
Um....Beautiful little cemetery but freaky as hell at night.
Few solar lights (coloured and white) on Graves but nothing else could be seen despite a 20 minute search at 11pm.
naybe next Time we are in the area.

Out on a maintenance run tonight...checked on this one and whilst all was well, we feel it could do with a little upgrade...will replace soon
Found at 8:18 PM in the company of Temingi GAFF5. We have had a couple of goes at this night cache, but each time it wasn't dark enough. A bit of information from the CO then gave us the confidence to do it again. This time it was pitch black with no moon - so surely we would see the light this time! Dave spotted something, but I thought that it looked way too far away and actually thought that it was a light from a far away house!
However after not finding anything else that could be a possibility, we went with Dave's light and as we got closer we were more convinced that we were on the right track. Dave was in front and soon had the cache in hand.
A nice way to plant a night cache and a favourite from us as we have not done one like this before.
Thanks earthly65.
