Found this cache while on a drive to Bundaberg. I was somewhat concern by the comments in the description mentioning that if we don't play right then the cache will be archive. Don't threaten us just do it. The cache is placed in a problematic position anyway so move it or archive it. I normally try to keep my posts positive but being threaten by the very person the created the problem. got to me. TFTC.
Due to this cache being problematic according to the last cacher we will achieved this cache.
On the drive out to Woodgate to drop in on the in-laws Christmas holiday, we stopped in for a cache or two.
It was only Christmas Eve that I purchased a soft plastic bucket to keep in the boot of the car for recycled cans and bottles near caches. I do have a simple rule: I pick up anything worth 10 cents within 200 metres of where I park. After signing the log I walked back to the car and right next to it were 3 items worth a total of 30 cents and suddenly I was making money on my holiday. Back when I was a kid 30 cents would have bought a sh!t-tonne of lollies. tftc

After spending Christmas with family, we decided to do some caching on the drive back to Brisbane. Merry Christmas & Happy new Year!
On our way to Bundaberg today and we picked up this cache. Thanks Julie&GGs for hiding it.

Thanks to everyone involved for this easy and well maintained find on our caching tour! One in one out.
Thank you folks from Victoria for the cache and for giving our beautiful beach such a great review. Lucky the very active hive close by is native bees!

I was in Childers this weekend to attend my High School 30 year class reunion. Had today to wind down and visit the district and take the geodaughter to the beach at Woodgate. I had caching on my mind today so after a swim it was time to find a cache or two around this area. All the caches were found quickly with accurate coordinates and in very scenic spots. Thx to the CO's of all of them for us to find, they were great. Cheers
Over visiting from NZ for a couple of weeks and Tiki touring up the coast and around. Trying to find as many as possible up here north east of Bundaberg before returning south.
It was dark by the time we got to this cache but luckily, by the faint light of a torch whose batteries had nearly been completely flattened after accidentally being switched on inside the caching bag, the cache was quickly found, the log signed and replaced. TFTC

CO called in today and replaced the cache container and logbook so it is ready to go and all dry now!
Stopped by here on our way to Sunshine Coast. Cache and logbook were damp. Took TB to move on. Thanks Julie&GGs
Nice easy drive by cache
Unfortunately gates locked so unable to buy any fruit or vegies only hunt up a cache

Passed by our cache late this afternoon and dropped off a TB we brought up from Victoria to get it some nice warm weather at last!!
Time to move house today
A week in Bundaberg and I'm off again to find new caching pastures
On the way this morning I passed by the Wendy House
A quick cache find *OUTSIDE* the fence
And I was on me way again

On the move again, unfortunately heading south as we have to wait for a part for our fridge to arrive in Maryborough. So, to make the most of it, be cached along the roads from Bundy to Hervey Bay - Any caches where it was safe to pull up with the van.
Searching around with the GPSr at GZ, Mr D could not pick up the scent, eventually, I saw the tell tale signs of a geotrail. Thanks Julie&GGs, shop was closed today

This one was well hidden, we walked up and back, and then again. As I decided to widen my search thinking my GPS may have needed to recalibrate I heard Geowife Josie giggling, making it slightly obvious she knew I was looking in the wrong place and that she had spotted it. I asked "Up or down?" and after I was directed to look low, I spotted the telltale signs of a geocache hide.

PS- We noticed after writing the log we got to this cache before Donmowin, Looks like we weren't the only ones geocaching this way today.

While holidaying in Elliott Heads we headed down this way for a few caches. This was a quick drive by for us.
On my way to Burnett Heads for a few days, just had to find a cache or two.

A quick find on our way from Woodgate to Childers; we're staying at Woodgate for holidays. Thanks for the yummy fresh veg. Tftc
Nice to have a spot to pull off the road , a short walk and we soon had this cache in hand. TFTH
Found it on the way to have a family cache day. On holidays up here from Newcastle NSW. SL TNLN TFTC #118 at 12:23pm. Spoke to Wendy who was really nice. Purchased some fresh local produce from her and explained what caching was about. She's happy to have a cache out the front of her house. My advice is to have a chat to her abd buy some of her fresh food
We left Woodgate this morning after a few days of relaxing and are heading for Bundaberg. This was our first stop and first cache en route.
Mr SKI located the cache while Mrs SKI checked out the local produce.
Could be an expensive cache!

I always feel uncomfortable looking for caches in locations like this and the presence of the property owner and a customer did not help.
Luckily it was a quick find for me and I was out of there real quick.

Found thanks. Wendy is not at all happy about people wandering onto her land looking for this geocache. Perhaps the owner of this needs to make it very explicit at the start (and via a hint) that this is located outside the property.

We are on our way to Woodgate Beach and found this reasonable size cache so that we could leave a trackable that we had bought back from the USA. Plenty of rainforest trees around in this tropical location. Produce stall was open but I had no need of vegies today. Thanks Julie&GGs.
Found on our way home from Bundaberg after visiting family for the weekend. Great spot to purchase some local produce. TFTC ☺
Up to Bundy for a few days for a not so pleasant reason - and today I get the job of driving back to Brisbane in the car. No other responsibilities today. Have noticed this on the TomTom many trips this year, but never the opportunity before to stop. Till today. Nice spot. Hi Wendy!
Thanks for placing this cache, Julie&GGs. Found in good condition.

Heading towards Bundaberg I decided to diverge slightly and pick up some vegies and had a chat with Wendy before looking for the cache. Swapped a tiger for the koala TFTC

Nice little cache, and a reason to take a closer look at the shop. Glad we did so, since we got the chance to meet Wendy Thank you for the chat!
Wendy is great !!!
We found the cache quickly. Than we visited Wendy's vege-shop; we bought some vegetables ... so cheap !! The youngest even got the oranges for free . In the meantime it was Wendy all around. Love it !! Hope everything went fine at the dentist Wendy ?

Today we headed south, stopping at a delightful caravan park at Ironridge.
most of the caches we found today were at Woodgate & in the afternoon in the Russso Environment Park. Both places we have never visited before. It was a great day out.

On road trip to Bundaberg with Team Biffo and stopping for some caches on the way. Went over to the fruit and veg shop first and bought some produce before heading to GZ and locating the cache. Thanks.
Quick find on the way home after a very pleasant day at Woodgate. Didn't get to call into Wendy's little shop today , but hopefully next time I come through this way. TFTC
#668 @ 10:47 am ~ Found as part of Suzy's week long caching car-cation up the coast to Rockhampton. Thought I'd missed this road a while back and internet coverage became poor. But glad I got here even though I wandered a bit like a dork with crazy GPS wandering. TFTC Julie&GGs
Drove past this area yesterday on the way to Bargara. There ware five out this way needing my name on logs but no time to stop. 40K drive back to start my searches.
Three down and two to go. Managed to park right opposite GZ and after a quick find on my way again/ Did not see anyone inside the gate but GZ is a about 20meters away from the gate on the way to the ocean. TFTC Julie&GGs

There is no need to enter the property to find the cache if you do please make sure you buy some lovely Fruit and Vegies from the Hollow Log. Wendy is a lovely lady but has had problems with people stealing from her small store
Nice family day on a sunday off I was more interested in Wendy and the store than the cache Nat went off and found both caches while we chatted with Wendy and bought some produce TFTC!
Found this Cache with my girlfriend on our today's trip from Bundaberg to Rainbow Beach.
