Hi The Flynn Stones,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Didn’t find it looked around the stones, bench and the side of the building.

No luck

Rsl was open looked everywhere

I spent ages looking but to no avail.

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 102. Bowen to Proserpine. After a relaxed start,I drove down to Proserpine along a section of Bruce Highway that had road works nearly all the way. I managed two of the three I had planned for the trip and then setup camp at Proserpine. I spent the rest of the morning visiting the caches around town and out towards the airport. After lunch I went for the drive to the dam. Tomorrow will be Airlie beach.

I was not able to locate anything on the seat and chose not to look at the bin.

Thanks.
Albida

Nope. 2 sets of eyes searched all over. Dnf

Looked in all the obvious spots, couldn't find.

Dnf. No luck.

Unable to find

We spent quite a while looking for it on top and under the bench and around the area but no luck I think it might of been moved by someone because the place was renovated in 2021. Thanks anyway!

So today, I have left my Townsville Mega week long event, lol, and started my trek home. I still had a few that I wanted to collect on the way and again had no real set plans. I did want to revisit ones I did not find on the way up due to cache blindness or maybe because they were not really there. I grabbed a few and then just before I got to Mackay I realised I had time to do some of those letterboxes off to the west, so I headed out there.

This one I missed on the way up not sure as to why, it was an easy find today, (shakes head).
Thanks for placing it here, a nice place to stop (twice) and refresh. With log signed and cache replaced as found, it was onto the next misfit.

It was raining so hard so this was a perfect cache it find, as it was sheltered and I got to sit for a bit. Nice hide.

TFTC,
Heading south after a great time attending the Townsville MEGA.
I have a need to cache in this LGA to qualify for a challenge.
Took a seat and spent some time thinking about the past and where i will be next week for ANZAC Day.
Visited trackables.

Day 31 of our adventure to Townsville Mega, now on our way home. Quick find on our way out of town after staying overnight. Stamped log and replace. Thanks to CO

Easter sunday today. Hubby and I staying overnight in the free Proserpine RV site. Easy find today. Tftc??

Making our way to townsville we decided to have a break and do some caching in Proserpine. We all took a seat as stephyy spotted this one real quick. Tftc The Flynn Stones ????

A nice spot to rest the legs with jodsta83 and Stephyy. Stephyy made the find here. Another one done on the way to Townsville!

Thanks for the cache, The Flynn Stones

Grabbing a few caches with Swearah and jodsta83 while Stopping in the area for lunch on our way to Townsville.

Rested the legs and made the find here thanks

But if fiddling around at GZ but it’s right where you’d expect it to be.

On my way to THE MEGA

I AM GUR

Heading north on a pilgrimage to the Townsville Mega, stopping along the way to stretch the legs and find any interesting caches. Took a few moments of groping to find it safely hidden!

Find #12281 @ 10:24
Thanks The Flynn Stones for giving us a reason to visit.

An easy find especially at 8.00 in the morning.

TFTC. Making our way north for the Townsville Mega. We left Mackay this morning heading for our overnight stop in Bowen. A lovely day for a drive. Along the way we stopped to find the odd cache, we do not have a plan to target any.
Stopped in Proserpine to find a leg of the Adventure Lab - Mackay to Townsville. Decided to attempt a couple of caches before continuing on

Caching today from Mackay to Bowen and doing caches along the way. Found the cache after a search and signed the 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.

Fun, adventure, travel, history, geology, mental stimulation, social gatherings, support and friendship are just some of the elements of geocaching.

Out and about enjoying the opportunity to grab a few caches, yours being one of those I targeted on my journey today. Thanks ??

Thanks The Flynn Stones (F=437 H=4) for placing this cache and adding to our game.

We thought that we were going to have to DNF this one as even with 5 pairs of eyes, we couldn't locate the cache. As we were leaving, GT37 decided to have another cursory glance around and made a quick find. Not sure how that happened but that is caching. Pleased to have a smiley, thank for placing this for us to find.

Day 3 of our Tour de Ville… having overnighted in Mackay we’re heading to Townsville…

Again, TMZ59 is at the wheel of the Habanero Sport, Patrol14 is up front and I’m having to constantly apologise to Imbunda in the back about covering her shirt in my milk…

We’re always on the look out for a cleanskin cache… so this was hard to drive by… and it then took much longer than it should have… it was the eagle eyes of Patrol14 who spotted it… thankfully there really wasn’t anyone around to question our antics…

Tftc… log signed as TDV - TIPP, Tour de Ville… ??

My pic has zero to do with the cache, I just don’t think I’ve ever seen seen a tractor in a car yard…

Today was our 3rd day of our trip to Townsville for the MEGA Event and our group consisted of TMZ59, Patrol14, Peppa and me and as we stayed in Mackay last night we decided to get some of the caches on our to do list to help fill some spaces in our Challenges. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

3.35pm

Third day of our trip to Townsville for the MEGA and we (Peppa, TMZ59., Imbunda and I) have a list of caches to do along the way. This was one of them for another LGA or special attribute needed for a challenge.

Stopped here to search for this cache without drawing attention to ourselves. After searching around found the cache tucked away. SL then returned as found.

Found on 11 April 2022. TFTC, The Flynn Stones.

We are heading up to the Townsville mega with micaparamedic, Geoturtle37 and Papi4506 chasing as many Adventure Labs that we can along the way.
After grabbing the Mackay one yesterday we headed to Proserpine to camp for the night.

After completing the Proserpine ad lab wpt this morning we were picking up caches on our way to Charters Towers.

We are quite happy that we chose an early departure today as the streets were basically empty and we had no muggles anywhere near gz. This turned out to be a bargain as even with this many eyes and fingers we couldn't locate the cache. (the CO is probably laughing now)
We expanded our search a little but the GPS'rs insisted that we were in the right location and we decided to call it a dnf. As we were leaving Geoturtle37 decided to have one last look and the very obvious cache was in hand immediately. We happily added our names to the log.

To save room in the log we signed as "The Vics"

Thanks The Flynn Stones for the cache.

As we venture north to Townsville for the Mega, with Team de Ville (Imbunda, Peppa, patrol14 and myself). Nice to sit and reflect and for patrol14 and Peppa to release some lunch gases. Better out there than in the car. Logged asTDV. TFTC.

There was a trade talking on his phone right where we needed to be. We left and returned later . Bingo had cache in hand..tftc.

Centred. Nice seat to write log.

Had a good search but no luck.

Nice quiet spot in the early morning. TFTC

A bit tricky but a very good find

On our way to the airport and stopped at this little park and grab.
TFTC

To hot for walking so I took a seat

TFTC! Didn’t have a pen so here is a photo instead

It was so small I had to ask someone else

Hard

Hard to find first nano but. Fun

Thanks for this one just dropped our son and girlfriend off at the airport there has been some type of incident on the highway so we thought we might as well get this one so thanks for this quick grab

Not sure where this could be. Looked EVERYWHERE! Great time with kids talking about sacrifice and courage of armed forces though.

TFTC, neat find, definitely a rest and reflect kinda vibe

we looked for it for a while and looked in the right spot and all we found was a tiny 8 ball

A very very quiet part of a quiet town on a Sunday morning! Tftc

Not sure what was happening but things were going off at the RSL this evening while we were here on a Monday! Luckily there were no pedestrians so we had no trouble locating the cache.

Thanks for find #2110
TNLN

Nanos certainly aren’t our favourite type of hide, but given it was outside the RSL we are thankful it wasn’t on a field gun! No one about so we were able to relax and make the find.

Today is moving day. Mackay to Proserpine, not a long drive at all. Only shame is that many of the caches are unavailable to us as we travel. There is a lot of road work happening which have cut a number of caches off, and a few of the others are difficult to access when you are towing a caravan. Still, we managed to find a few trads as well as completing an adventure lab, so not a complete waste geo caching wise. We’re thankful we managed to access the few we did, thanks to the CO’s who put them out.

TFTC

Cache found and spoke to the treasurer of the RSL and he’s happy to advise they are open 4 days a week (thu-sun) at the moment since 2019.

Found sat a while RSL open

Decided we should walk around to seek out Prosperpine's well praised bakery... yeah yeah, and look for a cache of course. Found the cache in the perfect spot to be stealthy but were still unsure of the bakery. It wasn't till we got back to where we started that we found it. Happy days for morning coffee tomorrow....

Grey Nomads travelling around Australia - more recently, just Queensland, and of late, heading up the Bruce. Today with our snail firmly attached to the tug, we arrived in Airlie Beach - and set up on the MOUNTAIN behind the marina with our van for a two week house sit.

Sorry to see this old building closed. would have been interesting to see inside. But we found a cache! Yahoo! Thanks The Flynn Stones

Goldie made the find before I could join her. Still had time to sit here.
Lovely place.

Quick find on our local tour of PP! TFTC

Found on a quiet Monday Public Holiday.

TFTC The Flynn Stones

After a quick rest on the right the cache was in reach. Nice easy one for the geo family.Tftc.

Inevitably on a long trip when many geocaches are being found, some get missed. Unfortunately, at the time, this was one of them. So, although out of chronological order, I am logging them today for simplicity. So my apologies for the generic log and the out of date sequence.

Our trip commenced on Friday November 28th and concluded on Tuesday December 22nd. During that time, we visited caches in Maryborough, Childers, Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Sarina, Mackay, Bowen, Townsville and Cairns, with other places in between like Proserpine, Home Hill, Ayr, Ingham to name just a few, with many wonderful single stop caches along the way.

Our party consisted of myself, hatzofff, grannysmith1947, and on occasion, youngoldfella.

Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC, The Flynn Stones.

Day 9 of our northern adventures with RoddyC, Snickersallan, GrannySmith 1947 & YOF caching on pur way north of Mackay travelling to Bowen.

Looking for a cup of coffee. Let us hope they are open. Then we can come back and reflect.

Found this one on a night out with my mum! Quick and easy find but almost got busted by muggles

Took a rest and went right and soon found the nano. All good. TFTC

All quiet around the olde 'rissole' today
And the cache was indeed an easy find,
once I figured out in which location it would be

The cache name had gone completely over me head !!
But after a looking in a few spots,
the light bulb came on,
and then it *was* an easy find


TFTC

Yes definately returned to service. Which means muggles around.

Look right look left then look right again.

TFTC quick find whilst in the area

Nice easy find tyfc.

As I continue my journey north, I made my first find during a brief stop in Proserpine. TFTC

Easy find

Tftc The Flynn Stones, easy find ,early before the muggles are about.

Got it we are enjoying exploring the area. Thanks. The cache needed a new log scroll so we put one in.

Glad to see the RSL open.

Our second day in Proserpine at the RV Free camp, with today being a visit to airlie beach. Not used to the hot weather yet today being 30C. Nice walking along the walkways and beautiful scenery towards the witsunday islands.
