Found by Mary and David at 13:50. More lantana. Someone could make a fortune sending plants to Victoria. Our thanks to Sweet-Sour.
Our journey south begins, somewhat reluctantly as we have been enjoying the warm weather and we know it is still cold and wet in Victoria.
It was only a short journey from Maryborough to Kilkivan but some well placed caches with good parking enabled us to collect caches on the way. There was only one we had to pass as we could not find a place to pull up. Lots of traditionals, but good sizes and in great condition.
On arrival at Kilkivan we set up camp and had some lunch before heading off to complete the Adventure Lab in town. Then is was off up one of the trails on Mudlo Road through the National Park and beyond. Some great countryside and worth the trip. Again good sized caches in the main in good condition. We got to use our TOTT we are becoming more proficient with but missed one that seemed to be gone.
A big day again, so we both should sleep well tonight!
Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache Sweet-Sour.

Heading north today from Gympie via the back roads to Tiaro and picking up cahes along the way and this was one of them. I parked nearby and once at GZ the cache was soon in hand and after signing the log all was returned as found.

I was looking in the wrong place for this cache, lucky I was with an experienced Cacher in Greynomad-Diana. She came and found it easily, I'd walked straight past it.

We drove by here a week ago but there was activity at the RFS so didn't stop. No one about today, and a short search had the cache in hand. Signed log, TNLF.
TFTC. We had not been out in a little while and with a new souviner in the offing we decided to head out along the Netherby Road and then circle back to Maryborough via Bauple. We had not been along these road previously so it was a leisurely trip. We attempted and found 22 caches in the Tiaro-Gundiah-Bauple area. Thnaks to the CO’s for putting these out so we could explore the area.
Logging old caches originally found with alphag_25. Now have my own account and logging them separately so that I can claim the finds.
30/6/21 Staying in Tiaro and seeing the sighrs and grabbing some caches. Great searching along old railway tracks. I am on holidays from Mackay. Rainy weather today. TFTC SL
Tftc Sweet-Sour, we are staying in Maryborough for a few more days.
Headed out this way today to collect a few smilies.
Bit of a search here, got it

Headed to Hervey bay for my annual pilgrimage to see my daughters on their first day of school for the year. Lucky there's a couple of hundred of caches between Hervey Bay and home.
This was cache **66** of **70** All caches were found with ease and in good condition unless otherwise said, and I thank each of the Cache Owners for placing and maintaing these caches. I apologise for the generic logs, it doen't mean the effort has not gone unnoticed.
Overshot it originally but the cache was quickly found and in a good condition

If you park at just before the driveway, head towards their gate and go down the tractor road to the left, you can follow it to GZ. A lot better than walking along the busy road
A train came rumbling by while we were searching here. It was carrying brightly coloured containers and was on a mission north.
After a short search, we came up with the goods, and signed the log.
All good here,
Thanks sweet-sour.

Heading from Brisbane to Bundaberg and decided to take this detour and collect along this country road. Thanks to the COs for placing and maintaining these caches to enhance our enjoyment of caching.
Out and about caching today on the way to Bundaberg. Decided to do these caches west of Bauple. Thoroughly enjoyed finding these caches in the countryside. Caches were found and logs signed. TFTC Sweet-Sour.

Found with Nyssaflutterby on our escaping reality for the weekend road trip!
We had a plan to find the most caches in a day for both of us (for me just 52, for Nyssa 122!) so after completing a trail we continued on caching for the rest of the day. We could have found a lot more but the heat was against us.
Quick find here.

Wombles and I were on a mission today. A week ago I had a crazy idea of trying to better my top finds in a day. So this is how we found ourselves in this part of QLD. With a new power trail available it was the perfect place. We had just completed all of the available 101 series and now only needed about another 20ish caches.
We wandered in from the road and started poking around for the cache. Being a nice size it didn’t take long until the beasty was in hand. No hassles here.
Thanks for the smiley Sweet-Sour

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.

Moving on today after some overnight rain, it was a case of sometimes having to wade through very long, very wet grass this morning, along with ilook4geo. It was a bit of a hit and miss day. Some caches we found OK, but some on the list we had to miss, as they were along a section of road where road works were happening and muggle workers were operating machinery at various points.
There was no problem with this one and all was in good condition. It was an easy find. Thank you Sweet - Sour for placing this cache.

The day started off wet and showery this morning, but cleared as the day went on. The caching still happened with goingplaces2 and we had to leave some due to road works. All caches were replaced as found. TFTC.
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.
A short search around the logs yielded nothing, then I checked a different spot and there it was.

We could see the cache from the road but it looked like we were going to get scratched up grabbing it. Normally I would just reach in through the undergrowth but on a lazy day there are sometimes when you couldn't even be bothered to scratch your balls (or so my wife says).
In doing nothing, I saw the easy and lazy way to grab the cache without losing any skin, striking gold for the lazy guys. tftc

Out caching today with friends BirdsvilleTrack. Lovely scenery and we enjoyed finding the cache in this location. Made a day of it and had lunch at one of the country pubs. Thanks to Sweet-Sour for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
A day of geocaching with the family before I head home.

Had no trouble finding this cache. Good to be back on the country road enjoying the sights as we pass by. Nice to have the larger cache size instead of the micros as there are so many of them!

A nice easy one on the way into Gundiah
So is it pronounced "Gun Die, Arrrgh !!" ?? [:o]

Another quality cache by Sweet-Sour
If only I had known then what I know now... I could have saved myself a bit of a walk and driven right up to the cache.
Sharing the find with my son it was quickly located and we signed the log, returned it to it's hiding spot and moved onto the next one.

Travelling around Australia and currently staying in Tiaro, Queensland for a few days .
Headed out with a list of nearby caches and places to explore today. An early start as we were expecting 34degrees today. Interesting day visiting some small towns and following the old railway line.
All caches on our list were found We found your cache with good coords and in good condition. Log signed then we replaced the cache where we found it.

Spent the day with Youngoldfella, he chasing my caches, me watching and having a little chuckle.
It is very entertaining watching others hunt for one's own caches, because they are using a GPS which tends to take them in a straight line.
"The hard way in and find an easy way out at the cache" I'd like a $ for every time I hear that, I've done it too. But to see it in real time is amusing.
Found the Cords a little too far out for my liking.

(FTF) I had it in the caching plan to come to Gympie today to do the (13) new ones that this CO had placed. I contacted Keith (Sweet-Sour) to see if he wanted to come for a drive as I anticipated he had at least two of his hides to maintain and he accepted the offer. Checked the internet last night and saw a new hide in Maryborough and 8 more from Sweet-Sour. Apologies for cut and paste logs as I have a lot to write.
I do not actively chase ftf but I will take them if I come across one or two or three or more. 38 hides in the plan today. 36 finds, 1 did not attempt as I did not have a ladder with me, and one
( The emperor ) I did not go out of my way to attempt as it was now dark on our return to Gympie.
No DNF's but came awfully close to one or two but persistent paid off. Left home at 0545 and arrived at the residence of Sweet-Sour at 0615. 486klmn drive today, home to home, and arrived home at 2000hours. Long day but there were many breaks along the way. We drove from Gunalda to Maryborough to Wolvi then to Cooran then to Kin Kin then to Mapleton then Amamoor then back to North of Gympie.
This was the next one in the plan and did not take long to find at all. Sweet-Sour tended to walk slightly away from each GZ leaving all the hard work to me and that is what should happen as it gives the CO a good chance to check his placed co ordinates. Keih and I nearly allways have a gapof about 3 meters. Not too difficult toi find with good co ordinates. I still do paper caching and only load a few at a time into my GPSr. Have the smart phone as a backup now buit initially I was not going to load the APP.
Another one where the CO was going to amend the posted co ordinates. Thankyou. Thanks for the company and TFTC Sweet-Sour.
