Temporarily disabling would be a nice idea. Saves people wasting time looking for a cache that is not there.
Have temporarily removed cache to repair camo. Should be back in a week or so
A nice short walk from the Esplanade to this cache hide.
Once at the GZ the cache container was quickly found and the logbook signed.
Thanks for the hide.

Over visiting from NZ and staying for a couple of days in Hervey Bay. Tiki-touring a round the local area and just time for a couple more before dark, so stopped off to look for this one. A nice quick find of a good sized cache. TFTC
Well, it take some thought, patience and stealth to retrieve this cache especially being vertically challenged and mature cachers but fortunately Geohubby was up to the challenge - thank goodness we found a reasonable break in the muggle traffic as it was needed!! Thanks for the notes, too

Found that being a little shortie didn't deter me from getting this cache, had to use a found object to prod this the cache out. After signing the log, the trick was how to get it back, well, up the sapling I went and it was replaced as found. Thanks to the owners for placing this cache.
Found with my amazing geo-partner KaleidoscopeCass while on our tour of Hervey Bay area. TFTC!
This was the tenth of twenty-four finds on a mini geocaching holiday with my awesome geopartner WallabyTim. A nice quick driveby...even with assistance I'm glad Wallaby at 6ft3 grabbed this one! TFTC 
**# 17394** Found on the Qld leg of our 2017 winter escape trip. 
Another perfect warm winter day for a drive around Hervey Bay again.
Not many muggles around and a good quick find here.
Thanks for the cache curiousmindshb,

In Hervey Bay for less than a day on our way home from Lady Elliot Island to Sydney. After a nice breakfast at Vinvera cafe we walked over here. What a great idea to turn the old railway into a cycle/walkway! Clever hide with handy reaching assistance conveniently located. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Yesterday when we arrived the guy running the caravan park we are staying in informed us that there is a rail trail that goes all the way to Maryborough, say what, we have to go check that out for next time we are here.
We dropped the geo-teens off at the van along with the geo-bikes to head off for the short stroll to locate the rail trail. Yep, this is a really cool rail trail, it is bitumen and everything, just need some more caches along it and it would be perfect.
We located this cache but couldn’t sign it, there was a rather large cache guardian. Mrs 4ando did suggest I’m sure he won’t mind if I stick my hand under his bum, I’m positive I’ve seen Steve Irwin do it before, but Mr 4ando said that wouldn’t be a wise thing.
So, we took a picture and sent it to the CO, it was a great looking specimen…

In the bay today to check out the lifestyle expo. Left lennie here to continue his journey. Please remember to always log your trackables, we would hate for lennie to get lost. TFTC
Nice to get a few caches as we head towards Stanthorpe for this weekend. This was one of the caches we targetted and found. Thanks to curiousmindshb for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area. 
A quick find while visiting Hervey Bay as part of our around Oz trip.
thanks

Busy day with the rubbish collection going on and the little ones watching. With Albert's long legs the cache was soon in our hands. TFTC
On our way from Nanango to Bundaberg for 5 days. Took a detour to Gympie to grab 4. Then to Maryborough for one then to Hervey Bay for 5 then to Bargara.
This was no 9 on our list for today. Arrived very close to this one. Parked safe. Actually nearly a park and grab. Spotted it straight away thanks to good co ordinates. Good hide. Clever Hide.

Cache back in place and have popped a geocoin in there that needs to go travelling
Went to check on cache after logs saying it was found on the ground. Container and log book is in good condition, have taken it home for today as this heavily preggy lady can't get it back up to it's home without some help. Will replace in the next day or two and note when it's back. PLEASE CONSIDER WHAT YOU LEAVE AS TRADES! - Batteries left as a trade in any cache, let alone one that specifically says it belongs to kids is probably not an appropriate choice 
In Hervey Bay for a quick Mother's Day weekend visit, and what a good opportunity to do some cache maintenance and find caches published more recently. This one took me longer to locate than it should have, but all good in the end. TFTC
Found cache out in the open on the ground, signed log and returned with some camo on top. Took TB to continue its journey. TFTC curiousmindshb 
Have to log this as DNF. One of the neighbors took offence to me checking the tree out and moving leaves with a stick. Not wanting to cause trouble i left
Tftc. Kids loved it. Dropped off a trackable. This guy was keeping a close eye on things
Great treasure chest. Found on our trip of oz. Follow us on Facebook at The Year of Us Our lap of Oz. Swapped a couple of items. Tftc.
Took a few minutes to spot then a few more to retrieve. Well camoed and well placed. TFTC
This cache tested my agility but it was a good find and importantly enabled a swap. Thanks curiousminds
Found at 11.24 hrs. Nice cache and an easy grab. I hope coupchamp logs the TB and coin so the kids can follow it. They are still registered as being in the cache.

Excellent location. My three geo kids found it a challenging location. If you are short then you may need a tall friend to come along. Have taken the geo kid and travel big and they will be placed in another location in Brisbane.
