Heading home from a Saturday morning outing we were able to duck onto the side road to look for this cache. Parked next to the GZ and began a methodical poke and prod of all the likely hide locations and soon came up with the goods . Retreated to the car to sign the log in comfort and then popped the cache back in its hidey hole . TNLNSL TFTC .
Comment says avoid spoilers but Id say avoid spiders, they love these trees for some reason!!
GC75ZMN Keep Searchin'Out for a day of caching with KerriMG as we both have the day off. Without any clear plan we ended up here. KerriMG made the find here after a lot of leaf litter removal by both of us. TFTC Slow Puncture (LJCC)
Found it whilst in the area finding a cache I needed for an April challenge. Didn't take long to find it. TFTC
Took some scratching around and finally heard the wods we wanted to hear. Caching with Gem54. Thanks *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
We bumpt into liz and Bruce at this hide .The four of us spent some time surching , finally Bruce spot the cache. ..Gotcha . We all teamed up to go collect some more local smiles.
We had lovely morning caching in the area and this is another nice SP cache we found. No problem finding the cache when we were at the right tree. All good here, log signed and replaced as found. Thanks Slow Puncture for your hides which we enjoy finding.
Wahoo, happy to turn this into a smilie face. So happy its been replaced. Not quite what I would call upside of the hill either. Tftc
Stopped while driving past and spent a few mins looking. Cache found, signed and returned as found. TFTC
Yesterday I noticed that the cache had been replaced. Thanks slow puncture for the ongoing maintenance.
Happy to now have a smiley in place instead of a blue frown.
Easy find given the hint.

After my last unsuccessful hunt for this one I received a message from Mister SP to say the cache is now back in play.
Had to come this way today so time for a quick detour. Took a bit for the GPS to settle down but finally had got there
Log signed cache replaced. TFTH

Slow Puncture (LJCC) I found your cache Keep Searchin' on 9/7/2023, 1:55 pm. This is my find 5870 and find # 11 today. Found it after a brief search with the help of the hint. I also unnecessarily disturbed an ants nest. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Found after I dug way more than I needed to. I upset a lot of ants. Had to shake them off my boots before getting in the car. I am sore I am have a few passengers.

Slow Puncture (LJCC) I didn’t find your cache Keep Searchin' on 13/12/2022, 2:58 pm. Scratched around like a brush turkey but nothing found.
Well this is my 3rd (and probably my last) attempt at this one and after reaching out to a previous find, I'll have to make the call that it's missing. Poo-Poo-Cachoo.
After completing the Urban Safari, there was time to spare before the results were announced - what else is there to do but grab a few caches.
I headed to gz and noticed a car parked right near where I wanted to search, the muggle driver was wondering what I was up to. Anyway I did my usual I've stopped to talk on the phone trick and wandered up and down near gz - worked a treat - he took off after a couple of minutes.
I jumped straight to the task at hand and very quickly found the cache. I think luck was on my side, this one could take a while!
Thanks Slow Puncture for the cache.
Oh yeah, turns out old mate muggle had headed down the road a bit further to dismantle some wooden crates and put them in his boot! No wonder he looked a little shady!

Didn’t understand the clue so just searched around. finally it revealed itself after a bit of poking and prodding. TFTC
After finally deciding on which tree we were going to start searching first, I grabbed a stick and started digging and the cache immediately revealed itself. I still don’t understand how the clue relates though! TFTC Slow Puncture (LJCC)
Nice hi don't we wouldn't find it in less than 5 minutes so many mozzies accidentally stood on a last bottle at least I had shoes
After attending a Christmas Party down the road I thought I would just have to pick up a couple of caches while in the area. I gave visited this spot a number of times and never had any success so today I changed that. It wasn't for the want of searching as I did heaps of that but I did expect it to be higher than it was as in the log it had 2 mtrs above the ground and I thought that was from where I was standing so concentrated on areas above my head, I'm far from 2 mtrs tall. After probing around I finally came up with the prize, log signed and cache replaced as found and no need for another visit to this cache. TFTC
Today with COVID-19's lockdown due to end, jesswrigley and I took the morning to go for a fitness session with our mountain bikes. I had popped over to Bunyaville Conservation Park a few days before to see a few of the MTB trails about, and so it deserved a return with our bikes. It was only a short loop consisting of *Wallaby*, *Minivan*, and *Zig Zag* on our return back to the car.
In the evening, with geocaches back getting published, I took a drive to North Lakes, and took a drive back through Strathpine.
After parking, I made the walk across the road to GZ, hoping that this would be a quick find. In the end, it took a while to find, as I was searching the wrong tree initially. Subsequently, when I started to search the correct tree, the cache soon revealed itself. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. I did reflect that these trees would have made a good tree climbing geocache, and god forbid if something were to happen, at least the funeral home was just across the road. Thanks Slow Puncture (LJCC) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Took Nothing, Left Nothing, Signed Log
We were stuck in traffic and released this cache was only 100 metres from where we were stopped. So we jumped out to go for a search. Once we had walk down to the cache we had already worked out where we should have been looking and what we were looking for. We quickly had the cache in hand, added some ink to the log and replaced it as we found.

Found it. Interesting history. Cool to see the trees have grown over the original bricks from many years ago. Thanks for the cache
Wednesday. Out on a maintenance run.
This cache had indeed gone walking. Has been replaced in a nook in the tree about 2 feet above the ground. It is camoflaged among the same type of camoflage.
Ready to go. Go, go, go!

Out today for a quick trip collecting caches that keep my streak alive, to fill in some blanks on my 360 degrees map and to collect some challenge and puzzle caches. As I was passing by I thought I would do a quick grab and run. Thanks for the cache, a great location tho it was a little bit of a search.
I've very few gaps in my calendar and aim to get it filled by the end of April. I had planned to pick up a cache in the city today but it was raining whenever I had the opportunity to get away from the office and it's a bit of a walk to the nearest. Sandra was playing netball at 7pm so I had to get straight home to feed and bath the geomonsters. So at 9:30pm I headed down to Petrie in the pouring rain and thankfully had the cache in hand before I got too wet.
Thanks!!

Out geocaching with geofriends today in this area to grab a few targetted caches on our to-get list and a few others along the way.
A quick stop while on our way to somewhere else. My gps was spot on and I made the find. SL then returned as found.

A trip up from the Gold Coast and meeting up with a lovely group of geo friends in search of a few caches in this local area.
We did what we were told, 'keep searching' and eventually you will find something you recognise.

I spent a long time digging through the leaves until I noticed the container wasn’t in either of those places. Log full, so I’ve added some paper for others to sign. TFTC
A day-long run around Pine Rivers shire today - this was my next stop. I searched the right spot briefly, missing it, before moving to the wrong spot which I searched long and hard. I was giving up but had another look where I started 'on the way out' .... got it this time. I cleaned my glasses when I got back to the car.
Thanks Slow Puncture for entertaining me at this location.

Needing a traditional cache for the calendar I stopped off to grab this one. Short search had the container in hand. The log is pretty full but managed to find a space to sign. TFTC
Out and about on a sunny Saturday morning on the dark side whilst my geodoggy gets his groom on . We targeted caches around the Kallangur/ Burpengary / Bray Park areas to find enough caches to unlock the vault . The clock is ticking both for the groom and the Mystery in the Museum promo so quick wins was the plan .
11/15 as soon as I saw the mower shop I knew I’d been here before. I recall it was very hot and the boys in the car were OVER IT, so I had to leave it. Today walked straight up to it and it was ... well, there in all it’s glory. Very easy find today!! Tftc

The log is full but we found a small spot. Muggle hubby found it on a day we are out exploring with the cousins. Solid container! Tftc
Something that should be there but oit of place. Initially chose the wrong one but got there in the end
It was sitting out all exposed so nice and easy for me!!! Log was full and very wet but just managed to scrawl my name at the bottom! Tftc filling holes in my calendar ever so slowly
I expected to be looking for this one much much longer... and let’s be real - if Jodsta83 wasn’t with me, I’m sure I would have! TFTC
Nice quick find.....surprisingly as I normaly spend much longer on similar hides but the geo Gods were on our side today. Found with swearah tftc
This one was our first for the day and a very quick one. We didn't know what the clue referred to but did not need it to find the cache. Luckily picked the correct tree and whilst stepping up into the tree the cache was spied straight away. Thanks Slow Puncture.
One of those lucky day for me. I drove to GZ look at those fig trees and said o!!!! No!!! walked away couple of times to work out which tree to search GPS was tell a thing. Geo feeling was telling me another tree. So went with my Geo feelings, look at the tree and there it was. 5 minute job. And laughing my head turn around and went to pickup my kids up.
This one certainly lived up to its name, there was two possibilities and of course I was looking in the wrong one to start with. TFTC Slow Puncture
I'm catching up on logging today, so sorry for the generic logs . Today I was out caching with barbbowman and Net88 in the Moreton Bay Council area, starting in Warner, heading to Caboolture and then finishing up in Burpengary. Phew, it was a busy day - I ended up finding 18 caches. Thank you to each of the wonderful COs for placing and maintaining these caches and providing us with a great day filled with finds and friendship
I very rarely go caching but decided to head out with Barbbowman and Rio today. This was our sixth find for the day. I think I need to watch movies more. I had no idea who Dr Evils, next in charge was and couldn't really find a quick answer in google. Looks like I'll just have to use my brain and eyes to search for this one. Sigh.
I started searching and looked in a few low places before I took a step back and just circled the area. hmmm that looks suspicious. A step and reach and yep... no need to keep searchin' now! We signed our names in the logbook and headed back to the riomobile. Thanks for the cache Slow Puncture.

We stopped here on our way back home after doing Old Petrie Town's WherIGo cache.
Tftc here.

When I first saw this one, I knew exactly where it would be - and I was not keen to spend many eons at GZ during the day (I do fret about muggles)
But - being a Saturday - I figured the local businesses would be either closed or running little staff.. so I rocked on up.
I started my hunt in apparently the wrong area. No scratching around here either. Back to the road and followed the smartphone to get better reception.
This put me in a different area. Immediately, I spied the cache. Suddenly, I had a Scottish voice behind me. Have I been busted by another cacher?
No - it was Old Mate on a bike wanting directions on how to get to the bikeway from Petrie Station. I fired up Osmand and showed him and he and his mate were gratefully on their way. Boy - did he startle me though.
Back to the cache.. Once Old Mate Biker was gone I made a swoop for the cache and signed the log. The log is 3/4 full (full on one side - half on the other) but in good condition.
I returned the cache as found. I'm not sure it is where the cache hider intended - so I have messaged them. Glad to have this one crossed off - and it wasn't as bad as I thought (despite some unexpected and random bikers approaching me). TFTC Slow Puncture (LJCC)

Took me and the little fella a while but eventually got it! Not sure about the hint or storyline - not helpful to us... TFTC
Really should get around to logging some caches, Found ofcourse with my amazing Geo-Wife while in the area.. cache is all good and was a nice easy find.. tftc!
Geohubby WallabyTim found an awesome special on new tyres nearby for our geo-Patrol "Boris" so we made the trip down from Noosa. It was a nice sunny stroll to find this cache while we waited, with WT understanding the Hint which helped me narrow down the find. TFTC
Out for an afternoon geocaching ride to clear a few caches from this area. Left from Petrie and followed the roads in and returned via the rail trail.
Parked the car right at this cache as a starting point and collected the cache after completing the ride.
