Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Bobbie21, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done, and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.
Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary, or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this, that is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.
Alternatively:
* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.
In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by Bobbie21 and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is there, and in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

TFTH Bobbie21 Coming to the end of my walk around this area. Pleased it was a quick find! Signed log and replaced as found
Found on the ground close to where we think it belongs. Have returned as best we could. You might need to check coordinates
TFTC, as per geocaching buddy comments. Found it on the ground. Please check we have replaced correctly
Quick find but the mint tin was empty. Put the only piece of paper that we had with us as a replacement log but it will need attention before the next rain. TFTC
Found it no problem but there was no log to sign and I didn't have any paper on me. Took a photo which I'm happy to send to the CO if needed. Tftc
Found the cache, but no logbook inside, had no paper on me to replace either. Took photo of the cache as evidence of visit.
Great lap of Carine Lake on an after school caching outing.
As others have mentioned, Tim is a bit squashed so lid isn’t closing properly but log was still dry inside baggie.

Found on floor a few meters from the tree, the container has been squashed so cant pull log book out 
Thank you for hiding these are really fun and easy can you hide some more if that's ok
Nice afternoon walk picking up these caches in the park. This container is in desparate needs of repairs. TFTC
Container in broken, and the rock that I’m guessing used to cover it (had flakes of orange paint on it) was lying a few metres away. Nice easy find, TFTC
We found it, whoever put it back last is sure a good hider, beaten up and leaves we’re on it so it was tricky to find...didn’t bring a pen but we found it
TYFTC. Looks like a dog might have gotten this one, bit crushed up. One happy Geobutler and two disappointed at not making the find!
Think a dog got to it, box its in is pretty beat up, owner might want to replace
Didn't have a pen on hand to write our names

Thanks Bobbie21 for placing and maintaining this cache. Out and about with itskate getting a few smily faces.
Decided to bring the geohound over here for a walk today. I've been avoiding driving to walking spots the past few weeks but this is only a 6 min drive from home and needed a change of scenery from the local park! Only after I was here did I remember there are also some caches here that I had been saving for a rainy day. So stopped off at this one while walking around. The others I will save for another visit 
Not the best choice of cache as it had 3 logs just from today - lucky I have hand sanitizer in my pocket! A lovely walk, although the panting joggers seem to have missed the social distancing memo. No problems with the cache though, a nice easy find TFTC
