**# 21491** Found on our 2018 mega adventure to ACT, NSW, QLD and beyond. Wink
A sunny Winter day for a westward trip to the outback. Wink
Not any muggles around today and a few more good safe hides. Wink
I had this one downloaded to the GPS and knew it needed an extra log sheet.
So I took an extra piece of log and added it to the other squashed log sheet.
Cache is still in place and now has lots more space for logs.
Thanks for the cache PalsLove, fav point added,

Crew 153 and I had big plans to try and get 100 caches in a day today.

However, Crew 153's Ford Falcon had other ideas and brought us to a screeching halt at cache number 50 by blowing its fuel pump.

We were both calm and collected about it. We still got 50 caches. Car got safely towed to Kilcoy. Mr Slow Puncture came and rescued us.. and there are still more than enough caches out there for us to try again. There ends my "cut and paste" part of the log Razz

We pulled up at this one to thankfully find no one at GZ. The hint was all a matter of perspective.. but we got there in the end Razz As reported previously, the cache is in dire need of a log.. and maybe some work on the container itself. A good little hide. TFTC PalsLove Smile

Fangsoki and I had picked this area for a day of caching to find caches for the Hidden Creatures Souvenirs and after an early start I finally finished the day with a total of 53 finds when we struck engine trouble and had to abort the mission.

This cache was find number 4 for the day.

We had to get down to search for this one. It took a while to spot. I am surprised to see this one has not been muggled in almost 3 years.

Gotcha - Difficult to sign log. Maybe a new log is required!!!

Now this is a quaint little devil . Thanks
 
19-Apr-18
Lots of nice parking here, I love that. The car was used as a bit of cover and the cache was retrieved. I signed the log book as Geo G as there is not much space in these tiny log books.
Thanks for the Cache PalsLove I haven't seen one like this for quite some time.

The start of a trip to the OZGeoMuster at Morisset - As we were heading to Dalby from the Sunshine Coast, this was on our way.
A great hide. Well done TFTC - Needs additional paper to logging

Haha love it. On a day out hoping to get 10 this is the 1st

Definitely the most unusual nano I have seen. Had an eek! moment when I first touched it but as it didn’t move that soon passed. Long fingernails or tweezers would be beneficial. Fav point from us. Kutgw

TFTC traveling around QLD, needed a quick stop & a quick grab for this this one
 
24-Feb-18
Nice quick find on the way to Bunya Mountains. We had guessed along the way what the cache might be and we were right.
 
24-Feb-18
We looked here, we looked there, then 1MinnieMoo spotted the sneaky beasty. We left our scribble and replaced as found.

Thanks for the cache PalsLove Big Grin

Lol very interesting! Tftc!

Pulled the car up right in front of the structure to provide some cover for the search from the houses across the road. Have seen pictures of these but haven't actually found one yet. And yes, as mentioned, the cover is missing off the bottom. TFTC PalsLove.
 
24-Nov-17
Decided to spend a few days camping in Nanango with my geodog Scruffy, so we just had to go out and find some of the caches hidden in this beautiful part of QLD.

Container is missing it's bottom and I've added a log .. TFTC .. Smile
 
18-Nov-17
This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.
 
18-Nov-17
Quick stop at bakery then rolled up here. Cache container is sitting on the bench upside-down. No logbook or innards.

CO plz check?!

We were in the area undertaking recovery duties for the car rally being held in the area over the weekend. Between stages, we managed to fit in a few cache finds which was an added bonus for the weekend.

We were blessed with a very nice sunny day for our adventures and we had a terrific time finding a few caches Big Grin

We had no difficulty in locating the cache and with our name added to the log book, we continued on our way.

Thank you PalsLove for having placed the cache and maintaining it for everyone to enjoy Cool
 
10-Sep-17
The group had been to Blackbutt and back and we had slowly lost members along the way. We were now down to three.

A short search located this one. Of course reading the hint earlier would have avoided that. Wink
 
09-Sep-17
After the round trip to Blackbutt on the BVRT a rest stop was sure in order Cool
 
20-Aug-17
So tiny but easily found, thanks to the helpful hint. Signed log, now the hard part is to return the log to the cache. Replaced as found. TFTC

Found this some time ago, revisited today with young eyes and realised I hadn't logged it. Love this one for it's novelty. Tftc
 
An easy place to stop with our caravan in tow. There was a chap in a vehicle parked and he wasn't going anywhere so we had to be very careful while hunting this one down. I dropped a few things and looked as I picked them up, luckily I quickly spotted the required object and returned it carefully after signing the log.

thanks Pals Love

Ian & Sue - Team Pathfinder uses T.P. to sign smaller logs.

Travelling around Australia and now super excited to be finally starting our trek to the Easter Geocaching Event at Alice Springs. Big Grin

Staying longer than initially planned in Nanago as the GeoCruiser has been at the Toyota Doctors.

With the Cruiser back on the road we decided to make today about testing it out to the extremes before we tow our house further North. Pleased to report all seems good.

Had a great day touring and mostly visiting Yarraman and surrounds, using Geocaching as a guide. Only 2 DNF's and 1 was definitely muggled so is that only 1 dnf [?] [:o)] lol.


TFTC PalsLove Big Grin and an awesome day.

Found it on the ground nearby. Signed log, replaced to where we think it is meant to be. TFTC!
 
26-Dec-16
This one tested our collective "reasoning" for quite a while til we read an earlier log and the penny finally dropped. Very crafty hide, and a real surprise to us that it manages to to stay in place in such a public area. Thanks PalsLove for this little challenge. I reckon it's worth a fave from us. Cheers from Bindair Dundat and Princess Madelyn.

A day out was planned with Slow Puncture to find as many of Queensland's oldest caches as possible in a single day trip around the Darling Downs today.

We passed through Ravensbourne, Crows Nest, Carbalah, Meringandan, Kingsthorpe, Goombungee, Haden and Yarraman on our adventure, finding 8 oldies and a total of 26 caches during the 540 km drive Cool.

After a brief search, this one was soon located. Having found similar containers previously made things easier.

This cache is in good condition, and makes smilie #2871 for us. Thanks **PalsLove** for showing us this spot. Discover our code TGQNRV, and mention where you saw it.

Thursday. It was an early start for both Orange Crew and Slow Puncture as were out today to collect some of the Oldest and Finest as well as other caches that came along our way.

An easy find but took us longer to get the logbook free than it did to find the container Big Grin

This was the 25th of 26 caches found on today's trip.

Thanks ***PalsLove***, for showing us this place. Smile

On our way home to Adelaide after escaping all the rain and cold we stopped to get this one. Mr. Wombat said what he saw and I said yes that must be it. He said really. Had a bit of a laugh. The tweezers came in handy. T.F.T.C.

11-Jun-16
I was with Roostaman yesterday and it was not where I had found it and after about 5 minutes gave it away. I was driving down to Woodford today to get a cache for todays souvineer as this cache, in Woosford, was the closest to home that I have not found so I replaced this cache with a similar container. Hope the CO does not mind.
 
11-Jun-16
Thank you very much Youngoldfella for replacing this one. Very much appreciated.
 
10-Jun-16
another day of our touring through QLD. Thanks to all the CO's for the caches that break the monotony of travelling, and adding to our list of smileys.
 
10-Jun-16
No luck for me today, I had a good look but chose to move on after a while.
Hopefully it is still there, and very well hidden, but it was not where the hint said it was.
 
29-May-16
Having come to Crows Nest for the Rural Challenge Event and staying overnight, we planned on caching today from Crows Nest to Yarraman and then as time allowed a few on the way home to Brisbane. Today was in the company of Nadine1989.

YARA!

Found at 1.00pm on 29th May 2016. TFTC.

RoddyC and me started on this morning very early to find some caches on our way. Most of them there traditional ones and not very complicated. The two special ones, one multi and one mystery were great! I enjoyed the tour, the landscape and the caches.

I heard already about this kind of cache it was the first time for me to find one.
 
27-May-16
Thank u replacing as I came back to find it and found first time see that unique cache TFTC

Our 2nd day at Nanango. Today we headed to Yarraman as so many new caches since we were here last. We found lots of interesting locations & caches.
Yhis took us longer to get the log book out than it did to find the cache.
Thanks for placing this cache PalsLove

We were able to park the Bedmobile right beside this one so no one could see what we were up to.

We parked our geomobile in front of the structure and this was the best invisibility cloak we could muster. As we have seen several of this style of hide you did not fool us. SL TFTC
 
09-Dec-15
After spending the last few weeks settling in to my new abode and being domestic and stuff like that. Decided that I had to get back to doing what I like best Geo Caching. So I set out on a mini road trip to explore my new surrounds and hopefully pick a few caches along the way. Thanks for bringing me here
 
07-Dec-15
I enjoyed finding this cache as I learned something. A perfect hide for this little one. The log was made easy to remove by the attachment of thread. A great idea. Thanks for the caches you've placed around the area to show off the scenic countryside and this lovely little town. Your caches and maintenance are appreciated. Cheers PalsLove! [^][^]

Day 3 of a 3-day getaway with Dutchie1950 Big Grin and our main objective was to attend youngoldfella's Event yesterday. It's been a fun couple of days, but it's time to return to real life... Sad

On our way to Nanango on Friday we decided to NOT stop at Yarraman, with the intent of collecting all those caches on our way home. A good decision, as there was plenty to keep us amused today Big Grin

This one was a sneaky hide, but it made me smile. I've only see a couple like it. TFTC, PalsLove.
 
06-Dec-15
# 1215 - After Nanango's First Event IolantheK and I make our way back home, slowly. No reason to hurry if there are so many caches waiting...

Today we want to pick up a few smileys around Yarraman.

After lunch we find a few more caches here before we head home. This one was tricky and found by IolantheK. She's a bit more agile than I am. Wink

Headed out for a Sunday drive with firebreather03 and the muggle hubby, we decided to head north and grab a few that had been placed since we had last came through here. We searched al the usual places with no luck and we decided on a different way of the thinking. Still looking firebreather asked if it was next to my foot??? It was, and a bit of a lucky find only the second one like this I have seen. Great hide and TFTC PalsLove

Find #507

After a few days of camping up at the Bunya Mountains, I decided to grab a few caches on my trip home. In between loosing and gaining signal, this little sucker popped up on my screen. Why not? I said to myself as I swiftly pulled in and began the search.

*** Having never found a cache of this kind before (only seeing it when browsing the internet) I was apprehensive to have a closer look. In the midst of many a spider and spider eggs I had to find the courage to take a closer look.. THANKFULLY

Thanks for the quick cache PalsLove!
