L & B VISITORS #5 - youngoldfella Tinana, Queensland, Australia
By youngoldfella on 15-Oct-14. Waypoint GC5ETME

Heading north from Brisbane with a full load on, the wife Geomum007, riding shotgun. Decided to get in a little paid geocaching. The perks of a linehaul trucker. TFTC

Found with TheKiltedKacher in our travels today, lovely day for it! TFTC!

Got it thanks

Road trip home. Good distraction

In Maryborough for an event today, so I thought I would claim a few more smiles.This was a quick and easy find today. TFTC

Enjoy the variety of caches collected today. After a little search log signed and placed where found. TFTC

We parked off 3 Mile Road, and walked over to this trees island cluster. The coordinates were dead on, but we did do the long round-about way through the trees cluster first. A nice-sized container for this location, and the cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks [youngoldfella](https://coord.info/PR1TC79) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.----------During this trip, I travelled with [Freddo](https://coord.info/PR8C14) (who was visiting from Adelaide, SA) and we visited Maryborough for an extended weekend.Friday was the drive north, which involved the full day with stops in Nambour, Eumundi, Pomona, Gympie, Tiaro, and Maryborough, and highlights included the *Evil* series and the *Big Aussie Day Bash* series. The weekend's two days prioritised the *Jolly Brolly Folly* (JBF) series and *Geocaching 101* series, with a Sunday afternoon trip to Utopia Falls. Finally, Monday's itinerary included a few last geocaches that were in town, and we then returned home via Beaver Rock, Maaroom, and Tin Can Bay.A fun and rewarding trip with great company and friends, and we were rewarded with good weather throughout our trip.Today, [Freddo](https://coord.info/PR8C14) and I commenced the drive north with a few [Freddo](https://coord.info/PR8C14) targeted D-T geocaches in the Sunshine Hinterland, so we stopped in Woombye and Nambour, before continuing our trip north. I had a targeted Eumundi geocache to find (as it was a non-market day today), and we then spent a couple of hours visiting the *Evil* series nearby to Pomona.After having a bakery lunch in Gympie, we continued north, stopped in Tiaro, and then progressively stopped more as we neared Maryborough. We spent a few hours finding a few geocaches in the *Big Aussie Day Bash* series, and then took a loop around Police Paddock Conservation Park. As the light faded, we caught up with [Liz and Bruce](https://coord.info/PR68BB).

Quick cache find here. Thanks for your cache. Love your work.Freddo traveled north from deep south to catch up with friendly Liz and Bruce and the RV Home base crew. David Wazza provided a sturdy vehicle and we traveled in style. We had good weather. Not to hot. Not to rainy. Lovely one day and perfect the next. The caches were found in a blur of Which Is Next and Where Are We Going Now. Some caches were harder to find than others. Some caches we could see from the car. Regardless all caches were found in the last place we looked.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach. Bedankt voor de cache. Kiitos ktkst. Zikomo posungira. Terima kasih untuk cache. Hvala cache. Nga mihi mo te keteroki. Dankie vir die kas.

Got it yoho

Of we went into the small bush area at the side of the road .Soon, we spotted the hide .Singned

Cool spot! Tftc!

Found by Mary and David at 15:55. So many logs to inspect. Did take us a while. Our thanks to youngoldfella.

Thank you for placing this cache, found after Torbanlea rodeo. DFC quickly made the find while the rest of the gang were a little under the weather, alongside DFC_JLK2019, Princess1005, T1NY96 and CaptainMonkey96.

Tftc w me LOGged it

Accurate coordinates made this a quick find , all's good at gz . Thanks youngoldfella

Always grateful for a Youngoldfella clue. True to his word that was exactly where the cache was.

Day 4 & 5 in Maryborough. We thought we would continue to look around town and spend our time caching here. It didn't quite work out as we thought as there were a number of caches in parks and reserves and we ventured wider as well. A good variety of caches and hides all in generally good condition. We had mixed results on a number of tree fishing attempts. Some we just couldn't spot, others we couldn't reach with our fishing pole. Will have to look at some further modifications when we get home! We did manage to get a couple though!

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache youngoldfella.
**SKI Pair****

on a work/play trip from Brisbane to Bundy and thanks to the hint it was a quick find. Thanks for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

The last time I was here I must have been blind. Today the cache was found quickly.

Thanks for the cache and many greetings from Germany.

In the area with Selva Girls to do the JBF series and anything else that got in the way and this was one of them. We managed to find all that we attempted today and enjoyed the quiet country roads. Plenty of nice areas to stop and enjoy a break while having some fun.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for me and others to enjoy.

TFTC youngoldfella

This cache was quickly located and the log signed. With everything returned as found, we continued on our way. TFTC

Having been car napped from Brisbane, I was held captive by 3 mad cachers heading to Maryborough. Every stop we all had to get out and search for said caches. I've heard less door closing in massage parlours, so I've been told. Glad this was a quick stop, thanks youngoldfella for another excuse for this mob to pull the car over.

Needed this placed date so lucky my buddies were happy to indulge! TFTC

Team JAGT (or some other acronym of our initials) was out today gathering caches. This helped fill a challenge for one of our crew. TFTC!

Picking up a few odds and sods here whilst trying to fill a challenge for one of the team.

Came with a torch because I needed it for an LGA challenge. Coming back from THE MEGA

I AM GUR

Took the opportunity to get away for the weekend to Maryborough. The roads are busy so it was good to take a break here and there for a cache or two.

Travelling & Caching with RoddyC and YOF.

Out and about travelling to Townsville Mega Event. Visiting caches along the way to break up the trip. Found cache and signed log. TFTC

Heading north for the Townsville Mega, taking 5 days and finding caches along the way. Thanks to the COs for placing these caches to show us more of your local area.

TFTC Out and about and decided to take a side road. The hint made it an easy find.

Tftc - Quick and easy find on the way home from camping

Awesome

Bit soaked thru, muddy tyres too leaving with a smiley thanks for the hide

Heading out for another day in fresh air and sunshine. An easy find. TFTC

Nice cache and hide

I found this cache on a trip with Snickersallan, I thank all CO's for the time and effort putting out and maintaining the caches, all were enjoyed. TFTC

Day four of our visit to beautiful Maryborough and continuing to work our way through finding all the local and a few outer suburb caches. It was extremely overcast for the majority of the day but the compass never faulted and led us to every GZ without any hassles.

The beaut hint made for a quick find for us here today, nice hide CO.

TFTC youngoldfella

We are staying in Maryborough for a few days finding caches along the way. These L & B caches are showing us places that other visitors have been. SL TFTC

Coongoola & Geodog found your cache today, 10 June 2021 10:32 am , while enjoying another day out adding to our tally. Stamped with Coongoola or CG. TFTC youngoldfella

10155 Located by baby&Mrs gopher at 1405. Had to stop and say g'day. Just enjoy your regular container hides. Left a TB SL Tnx youngolgfella
The TB wants to get to Cairns and we were going to leave it in the Rockhampton area. Unfortunately, we are not going to get that far north. Please the next finder can you keep this TB going.

Another fun find and nice break. Logged ok.

After we had a beautiful time at the recent events in Kilkivan, we headed on further North for caching.

Tftc Youngoldfella

We continue our little caravan trip for getting some more smilies.

Tftc youngoldfella & Liz and Bruce, made a quick find here this morning. SL. thanks

Logging old caches originally found with alphag_25. Now have my own account and logging them separately so that I can claim the finds.

Georode

Along this country toad we found this cache. The log was quite damp but signable. We secured the lid a bit better than how we found it. TFTC

A short detour down this road and the cache was located quickly Well pleased with the caches in and around Maryborough. A passing car on the highway gave me a beep, must be local cachers

TFTC YOF Happy New Year

Another great day out caching around Maryborough mainly on side road in the forest. A nice quick find just off the main road. TFTC

Driving to Maryborough this afternoon, spending the night there and then on to a job on Thursday morning.
As I was getting close to MB I made a few stops for caches along the Bruce Hwy.
Time to start getting serious about the caching here

Thank you for hiding this cache

Quick and easy find tftc
Log a little damp

Sorry had nothing with us to help. TFTC

. Nice hide, needs new log and bag all wet tyfc

Easy find, log is wet

Log is wet

This one will survive and can be used till I can get there in a few weeks to replace it. If someone else has a spare log book could they assist me in the mean time please. Many thanks in anticipation.

Nice and easy on the side of the road

TFTC easy find, just what the doctor ordered

Nice easy cache. TFTC

My caching buddy is Oddiewan ️


Having a fine weekend up in Maryborough. The weather could not be more perfect. There are so many caches here to be found. Thank you for hiding the cache to allow us to enjoy this lovely region.

TFTC. We were heading to Lia and Bruce’s event and running early on there drive from Bundaberg we detoured to find a couple of caches before Event Time. A quick find. It seems we have been doing a lot of youngoldfella caches lately.

Lovey day out in Maryborough. What a great spot to come and cache.
TFTC

The original logbook was soggy but a fresh logbook was present. While Oddiewan stamped us into the fresh logbook, I worked to dry out the original logbook and turned the bag inside out and dried it on my pants so it all would have a chance to dry out a bit. Next finder would be kind to flip the baggie right way round and close it properly. Noce to find a regular in the wild TFTc

Out and about while visiting L&B. Nice easy find
Logs a a bit damp. Semik tried to dry them for a bit. Could do with some more time in the sun.
TFTC

Yeah. Finally made it to 2000 finds. TFTC.

Heading for Mary-Poppins-Borough this morning,
I took a detour three miles out
And close to the highway,
have no doubt,
I found this cache

TFTC on a visit today [^]

Hi there youngoldfella. This morning was reserved for visiting the Thursday markets in Maryborough with some caching afterwards. This cache was a quick find after parking nearby and the container and the log are dry and quite useable. SL, TN, LN. Thanks to youngoldfella for this cache - our find #6752.

Found this cache in a simple logical spot. Nice to see a spare logbook, but sadly both were damp, although we could still write our log.
cheers and TFTC youngoldfella
greynomads - Bill and Diana

Easy as.

Cheers

Bundy

All fixed. Many thanks to the local geocacher who assisted me. New log in place.

Kilkivan Cache-up stay Day 3:
Another early start, leaving Kilkivan and heading up through Gundiah and Tiaro before a few hours in Maryborough to find some caches and attend a New Year's event, then heading home to Brissie.

A quick-ish find here, once I put my cache glasses on! Oh dear, a bit soggy inside I'm afraid, dried it out best as I could.

Found on Monday 31 Dec. 2018 at08:13 making #6,044.

I can not get there till the end of January to replace the log book and check on the container. A previous finder has kindly contacted me and will go out to the GZ and replace the log book for me. Many thanks for this.

Tftc

All wet

A quick night time find

Easy find but no trackable

Found at 12:39 PM GAFF1.
What an interesting spot to place a cache! So much going on - tall grass to push through; some stumps and logs strewn around; a massive number of cars zooming past just 20 metres away. We were struggling to work out what all of that had to do with L&B
A good sized cache container that was appreciated.
Thanks youngoldfella.
Feedback: Even though I don't care much about them, there was no TB in that container - who would have thought that that could happen [:o)]

Heading for Bundy with wombles and 1MinnieMoo on a special weekend getaway. We stopped off at a few locations to break up the drive and create a new smiley.
A quick find in the obvious location here.

Thanks for the cache youngoldfellow

8/9/18 3:10 pm Find #2063
Heading to Bundy for the weekend with Wombles&Co, NyssaFlutterby, and 1GiantPanda, we were grabbing just a few caches along the way. This one was a quick side stop, found straight away before heading to the next one along the same road.
Thanks for the cache youngoldfella.

A nice quick find on our road trip north.
Nyssaflutterby 1minniemoo 1giantpanda and I escaped Brisbane for a weekend with a plan!

Looking for something to fill in time whilst not studying, it was suggested that I finally get around to logging THOSE caches long found but never logged. Some even have funny stories of being visited not only once or twice, but a few even have had a third or fourth visit before realising I've been there done that. The date is as near to the correct day the cache was found.So sorry for the generic and late log.JABs.

Quick find on the way through. Something, something, Liz & Bruce!

TNLN - Thanks youngoldfella

Find #941 in Australia. TFTC

This afternoon was a time of just quietly caching around Maryborough and putting some more smileys on our caching map. We wanted to pick up some more of the Liz and Bruce tribute caches in the area.
The log of each cache found was duly signed and replaced before we left. This one was a nice easy find and our thanks go to youngoldfella for this cache placement.

Yep, ta.

With the rest of the regular Bromanceketeer geocaching posse either back at work, interstate or oversees and my family heading down the coast for a few days, I decided to head north on a solo geocaching mission targeting some caches around Rainbow Beach and some other unloved caches along the way. Having completed the Rainbow Beach to-do list, with a short stop over in Maryborough, I then made my way north to Hervey Bay where I spent the night sleeping in the car. With a new day, there were more caches to find heading further north towards the outskirts of Bundaberg.

With the main targets for the trip ticked off it was time to turn towards home, and the long drive back to Brisbane. Time though for an extra couple of caches on the way back, including this one.

No problems locating the container and after signing the logbook, dropped off a trackable for the next visitor. TFTC

On route from Maryborough I came across some caches I needed to log.

Thank you for sharing.

Find number **305** with this one being find **2** of **15** looked for with only **2** not found - pretty stoked with that.

Had to drop the kids back to their mums house today so made the drive from Hervey Bay back down to Beaudesert. Luckily had no time restraints on the way home so why not make the most of it and cache along the highway. Somehow turned a 5 hour trip into a 7 hour trip but hey, it was worth it right?

Last time I was up this way this was all under construction. Such a delight to be able to drive through here now and it's all completed. This one was a real easy find, cache was quickly found and signed before being replaced. It's harder to search of a night time but a lot easier to be discrete when no one can see you

Thanks for the cache youngoldfella. Great location for one.
