I Like Traffic Lights Story about the Sun Minyama, Queensland, Australia
By spiderwebbs4 on 20-Jan-18. Waypoint GC7KW15

After 4 years with 87 finds, 2 favourite points, 20 DNFs & 4 cache containers, I'm letting this one go. The artwork is still great but the location near this busy road & businesses is obviously too muggly to maintain a safe hide.
Thanks for all the interest over this time. Please still pass by and admire the Story about the Sun & Moon on the back of the signal box.

Wasn’t there looked around a bit but definitely not their anymore

No luck today - searched behind all cabbage trees in the blaring afternoon sun.

no luck today.

Couldn't find this one. TFTC

Search for a bit foe this one

It looks like there has been some council work done to make the gardens look pretty not sure if it's there anymore

DNF. Garden recently mulched though

Struck it lucky with a quiet GZ. Not that one, but not far away.

Behind the Palm tree

Visited to replace a log but could not find the cache either. I noticed it had been replaced last year by another caching group so not sure of the type of container but couldn't see anything.
New one is a familiar type low on the tree behind.
Happy hunting! ️️️

Not being a local we had to google cabbage trees! TFTC

Was a bit awkward searching around but we find it! Our 1st one ever! So much fun

Great find... Managed to add a small cache... Found with melajeat and globalkoala

Great find!!
Super quick...was able to fit a very small object inside...

Great find! Able to fit something tiny like google eyes...log book pretty much full

Great find! Found with @melajeat and @aussieturk!! Able to fit a small cache...log book pretty much full!

Yep

recommend searching up what a grassy cabbage tree is it helped

Visiting from Sydney with PelDroedGwin, our accommodation is only a few minutes walk from so we took advantage of a break in the rain to stretch our legs.

Another vibrant box and another test of our counting.

A short walk to GZ and CIH. Signed log as The Bebes & PDG to save space.

Exactly where it was supposed to be TFTC

This was a nice quick find in plain sight as per part of the hint. All good with the cache, log signed and replaced as found. Thanks Spiderwebbs4.

Easy find after reading previous logs . Tftc

Thanks for the cache and taking us here spiderwebbs4. This was strange, Snickersallan found the log on the ground.

Another day out caching in this beautiful part of the sunny coast with hatzofff, RoddyC, E_Smiley and grannysmith1947.
Found the log sheet out in the open but no sign of the container so RoddyC supplied a suitable one to kept it dry.

Found November 7, 2020

Having an extended weekend away with grannysmith1947, Snickersallan, RoddyC and E Smiley to get some more smiles in the area.

Felt guilty about being in the garden.

Day 4 Caching day out and around the Sunny Coast with hatzofff, snickersallan and Grannysmith1947. E_Smiley has joined us for the day.

Found log sheet on ground, no sign of container. Signed old log sheet and added a new container and placed as per original hint - in the palm tree.

Cache located, log signed and all replaced as found. TFTC, spiderwebbs4, at 4:04 PM on November 7, 2020.

Thank you, spiderwebbs4, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Found by good luck more than skill. Glad the coords are good as it felt like a long shot. Not sure it was where it was supposed to be though. Not possible to write on it as paper now too shiny. Tftc

21.06.20 - great one to look for. Much smaller than I expected. No lid, log slightly damp.

after about 10mins of searching! i found it, so much easier when you don’t put your mind to it

Found it today
Third try lucky

Found after searching for a while

Great find

Easy with hint

Great story behind the art I like that alot!! Found ty er cache after a bit of awkward anti muggle hanging around. Cheers!!

Found TFTC May be some issues with the lid

I feel there is so many places to look and ran out of time to keep searching.

Easy find once earthlight got to gz
Tftc

Found it easily. Out and about with Hamish Heroes on this very hot day. Tftc tnlnsl

TFTC quick easy find.TNLNSL

We were looking too hard. Found it more obvious when we stopped trying so hard.
TFTC

Rolling south and picking off a few caches along the route...

Not sure how I ended up here, and pretty sure I failed Botany 101. Thought about it and located the cache easily

With giraffe 18, pirate Linda and cutie pie 07

Out with PirateLinda and CutiePie07 and MissBeauty. Always good to have a team with you.

Found with Miss Beauty and Giraffe 18. 5 sets of eyes does the trick.

Found nice and easy. All is good with this cache. TYFTC.

Our second visit to this beautiful place - greetings from Auckland, New Zealand. We are on holiday with family in the very sunny Sunshine Coast for a week staying in Mooloolaba. Our last full day so spend the afternoon finalising a few caches in the area. We had just finished finalising a few caches at Point Cartwright and on our way to Alexandra Heads and this one was on our way past, it'd be rude not to stop right!
We spent quite a while looking and actually found it on the ground. The hint didn't make much sense and being out of towners, we placed it back on some fauna as close to where we found it albeit not on the ground. May need a check by the cache owner - TFTC!

While camping in the area with my geodog Scruffy, we just had to get out and find a few more caches ...

All Good .. TFTC ..

Another lovely traffic light box to admire
And this time around,
the cache was an easy find

The traffic lights came in useful too !!
I had to cross the road to get to the bike shop on the other side [^]

TFTC.

Thanks for the story and the hunt. We forgot a pen so we didn't leave your mark.

I just visited to change an apparently wet log but this became one of the 7 DNFs today on my own caches. I checked several times and was quite surprised that this had gone missing.
I quickly constructed a replacement of the same grassy type.
All back in place, ready to find.

No luck today

A bit tricky, but combined the hint and bingo. The log is very wet and probably needs replacing
TFTC

Couldn’t find this one unfortunately

Took too long with 2 sets of eyes and left feeling very out of place and confused

That is very sweet! Think that’d be hard to find but glad we did. Logs a bit wet though

Thanks

Quick Easy Find. Great little hide! TFTC.

Easy find once you know what to look for!

Thanks from Gibraltar. TFTC.

Thx from California

My first geocache! Easy find, took 10-15 minutes.

While staying at Elimbah we ventured out and found this cache. We enjoyed this series, nicely placed and well thought out. Plus checking out the art was great. Fav point alloc. Thankyou spiderwebbs4 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area

Never knew this was a geocache!!

Didn’t find this cache but we gave it a go that’s what counts

Good find

Nice quick find whilst Sandra was parked in a none-to-legal spot.

Thanks!!

Nice find for some fun after some speech therapy! And a beautiful story in the artwork. TFTC

Found it! Unfortunately I didn’t bring a pen. Thank you!

Feeling a little ruffled as smallwombat and i approached this one as we had already been here and had a thorough search. Ths was also our 3rd for the morning with 2 dnfs to a start and we were not having much success. Only tha I spotted a diff color amongst the plants that we were finally able to add our first smiley for the day. Tftc

Second time lucky with this one, and a PAF to a recent finder brought us on track finally.
Cheeky! First find for the day today, found about eleven am with sunshine58.
Cheers spiderwebbs4!

A dnf with small wombat and self looking all over.

that's tricky nice hide tftc

Havent seen one of these for a while. Out with Kiwiz@GZ. Tftc

Back to find some more

have been just nearby a whiles ago but that hide was not in a plant friendly spot
this one is much nicer

definitely enjoying the

Week 2 of our ILTL adventure - barbbowman and I enjoyed this series last week, so we thought we'd come back for more

bb and I had had a look for this one on a previous visit to the Sunny Coast without any luck. We had felt quite exposed when we were searching for it last time, so we were quite happy that it had moved to a new location. Especially when we found it in its hidey hole. TFTC spiderwebbs4

Took a little bit of searching but found it in the end with Jennicorn (all credit to them for the find ... thanks guys)!
Lovely container (totally blends in)!! TFTC

Bumped into Vagfam3 while searching for this one! Fun find

Last one just before heading home and once again EJCat used her phenomenal geocaching skills to locate and retrieve the little beastie.
Thanks spiderwebbs4 for contributing to our fun afternoon!

YAY 400 signed PJB great cache but might get lost/muggled but still TFTC

I was intending to enjoy a nice bike ride along Nicklin Way this morning to try to grab a few more of the Traffic Lights series but the weather meant that I ventured out by car. This was the first of my finds for the day. TFTC spiderwebbs4

This is my first find in Australia......and I'm very pleased to log it!!
TFTC from Canada

Felt pretty conspicuous here on a Saturday morning! Luckily though it was a quick find.

Out for another day of searching for Traffic Lights. Second attempt at this one - much happier about the placement this time as we didn't want to be trampling the garden. This time we made a nice quick find. TNLNSL TFTC

Was walking right past when we saw the colourful signal box and remembered the notifications about these caches. Had a look, found it, borrowed pen from shop across the road. Thanks for the cache.

Last one today.
Be back for some more traffic lights soon.
Parked nearby and headed to new coordinates.
Thanks for replacing.
A nice quick find and signed the log and returned to where I found it.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks spiderwebbs4 All good with this cache
A favourite from me for this one and your series and good job

Well well we’ll siperwebbs4 you have been such a busy bee, we are finding your name on every green spot we look at lately, thanks for you love of art, puzzles and nature tftc

This Day in Music
2005, John Bonham was voted at No. 1 in Classic Rock Magazine's '50 Greatest Drummers in Rock' listing Moby Dick as Bonham's defining moment. During live sets with Zeppelin his drum solo Moby Dick would often last for half an hour and regularly featured the use of his bare hands.

First for today and after finding a car park it was a quick walk and find

Another check under the cover of darkness and still no cache revealed itself. We decided to replace the container, assuming that the original has been muggled (or just been buried in the fast growing garden).
Now a micro container a bit further away from the signal box and hopefully more out of sight of the watchful eyes of bank customers and traffic.

Coordinates changed from:
S 26° 42.012 E 153° 7.430

Coordinates changed to:
S 26° 42.001 E 153° 7.431

Distance from original: 67.0 feet or 20.4 meters.

Replaced and moved to another part of the garden less in the limelight.

Made a quick check on this one and confirmed that the cache is not where it was originally hidden. Too busy during bank opening hours here. Recommended visiting time would be weekends or night. Will return for a more extensive search in case of cache creep before concluding that it is missing.

After reading the cache description and the hint it is obvious the cache is in the garden. We spotted a few places the clue alluded to but were not prepared to tramp into the garden to search for the cache. We are really enjoying this series but not this particular cache. I hope the garden survives the onslaught of cachers who will look for this cache..
