Not a lot of places to hide a cache but still took a few minutes to spot the sneaky hiding spot. TFTC
We are on the move again with ilook4geo and doing some more caching as we go. We are just finding a few caches in town today. This one didn't stay hidden too long as there are not a lot of hiding places available. Thanks for this cache placement go to Liz and Bruce.
Out hunting caches while travelling further south with goingplaces2. Made a few stops along the way to pick up some finds. This was one of the caches we found in town on a quiet Sunday afternoon. TFTC.
Found with The X-Trailers between doing 2 virtual caches.Loved the art work along the walls.Our GPS was about 8 meters out today but managed to locate .TFTC
After lunch across the road, it was time to hit the nearby Adventures labs, but first this trad was on the radar. Loved the murals and shared the info from the cache page with the husband about the story behind the name and the murals. Located with ease once I got my mojo on after admiring the artwork, signed and returned as found.
Found on a night scoot around town. *The generic bit for this trip*We are on now on our way south after heading north for warmer weather. From Cooktown back to Notth East Victoria, weaving inland and to the coast, caching as we go. No real plans, just taking each day as it comes and enjoying the adventure in our converted ambulance. Thanks to all COs for placing and maintaining caches for our enjoyment.
Quick find during marketSigned as The Roos.Here with kiwisteve2 drobbonz and kimmy533 at the Doon Villa SC RV park for a week before heading north.Really enjoying the area.Tftc
Tftc. Took me a while because the markets are making this lane very busy with muggles.
We were enjoying the markets this morning with Bewiched44. We were going back and forward looking until finally came up with the firs.TFTC
Day trip to Maryborough to add some smilies. Nearly gave up the search but hubby noticed a spot where something might be hiding - BINGO! Another TFTC
Our tour took us to the north - towards Maryborough.We did a lot of puzzling, research and planning in the run-up to our tour.After arriving in Maryborough, we started with the adventure caches.We planned a few days around Maryborough for the different cache trails.We had beautiful weather - and a wonderful time. We discovered Maryborough's history and classic Queensland architecture from the 1800s and visited the Mary Poopins Museum.We would like to thank all the owners for the great cachesTeam sissifalke
A returned visit to this alleyway and at last managed to find the cache - in a place we looked before - obviously not well enough.A great story involved with this mural. TFTC Liz and Bruce
Found this interesting cache while exploring the Lane Way murals in Maryborough. It's fascinating to learn about the history of the area and the role of the Inspector of Nuisances back in the late 1800s.Can you imagine pigs, cows, and goats roaming the main streets?Took extra care to be stealthy.
Found with Dora the Explorer! on our adventures in Maryborough. No muggles here to enquire as to our doings. Well hidden cache.TFTC
Think I found it quicker than Freddo. At least it was quiet on a Sunday afternoon and no muggles about
The inspector is a nuisance. Took ages to find this cache. Glad it was early on a Saturday and I had the place to myself.Freddo traveled north from deep south to catch up with friendly Liz and Bruce and the RV Home base crew. David Wazza provided a sturdy vehicle and we traveled in style. We had good weather. Not to hot. Not to rainy. Lovely one day and perfect the next. The caches were found in a blur of Which Is Next and Where Are We Going Now. Some caches were harder to find than others. Some caches we could see from the car. Regardless all caches were found in the last place we looked.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach. Bedankt voor de cache. Kiitos ktkst. Zikomo posungira. Terima kasih untuk cache. Hvala cache. Nga mihi mo te keteroki. Dankie vir die kas.

Making our way home from QOGM 23 along the coast grabbing some caches along the way TFTC
While staying in Maryborough for a few days with my geodog Scruffy , we just had to get out and find a few caches in this very interesting town ...
All Good .. TFTC ..

I was on a 5 day roadtrip with Marcussjd9. After stopping for lunch, we headed out for a variety of caches.
This one almost had us stumped for a while
A previous log pointed us in the right direction and we located the cache

A most enjoyable long weekend spent in the company of La Kedi and The Marble exploring the Maryborough area and collecting a wonderful variety of cache types and hides. Thanks for placing and maintaining this one Liz and Bruce
Not where I was expecting but pretty much the only place it could’ve been. Safe and dry. TFTC
It took while to find this one as we were focusing our search on the other side – as soon as we changed the side we were looking at, I made a very quick find in a slightly unexpected spot. Interesting murals.TFTC, Liz and Bruce. =^.^=
After completing the Ad Labs, I wandered in here for a quick find. Thanks for the fun Liz and Bruce
I had planned an Easter road trip caching around Maryborough and surrounds and before heading west to climb Mt Walsh. At the last minute, Seffnjarah joined me.
After dinner at the RSL nearby, we headed back out, collecting a few first to finds and other interesting caches. I had spied this one whilst eating and was keen to check it out, even though it wasn't on our hastily assembled list. I have found some great urban art caches in Hobart and Melbourne recently and was keen to see what Maryborough had to offer.
It was very quiet here tonight. We had correctly figured on the hide location, just the wrong side. My wife is an inspector of nuisances. She would say that I am the nuisance! Many thanks Liz and Bruce.

I was lucky to score a ride with Crookedpete for an Easter weekend road trip from Brisbane to around Maryborough, Hervey Bay, Mt Walsh and surrounding areas.
This cache wasn't originally on our extensive to do list, but Crookedpete was keen to take some photos of some murals in the laneway, and what do you know, there is a cache here as well. It was almost 9pm by the time we arrived here so we had no muggles to worry about at this time of night. I was searching the right item but the wrong side but Crookedpete found himself in the right spot and soon located the cache. TFTC

Alyce and I made a spontaneous trip to Maryborough and brought the 4 youngest along for the ride. Our goal for the day was to grab the Brolly that we solved recently, but we forgot to download the list and had no internet when we arrived, so we decided to head into town to clean up some caches instead.
It was an action packed day filled with adventures and fun times. The kiddies enjoyed the experience but grew tired towards the end of the day. All in all we all had a fantastic day exploring Maryborough and the surrounding areas.
This was a tough little bugger to find for sometime as their wasn’t many places a cache could be, but after a thorough search in a few odd places the cache was in hand. I really enjoyed exploring the murals down this lane way.
Thanks for bringing us here.

Quick find with a couple of possibilities, but no nuisances, not much in the CBD at all today. Thanks for another cache.
A lovely walk around town led us to this cache. It was very quiet and there was no one in the vicinity which made for a quick find. All good here, log signed and replaced as found. Thanks Liz and Bruce
We had a look for this on the day we arrived in Maryborough, and figured it could really only be in one place, but still couldn't find it. Checked with a previous finder who suggested we were ón the money', but when we returned we still couldn't find it.
Found after much perseverance. Unfortunately it was a very cloudy day and GPS was not very accurate. TFTC
We headed to Gin Gin to drop our cousin at a wedding so we thought we would grab the Thomas and Friends Series and some other caches in Bundaberg while we were around the area.

Having made plans for catching up with friends in Hervey Bay today we didn't have a lot of spare time available so we certainly did the new adventure lab cache since our last visit and anything else that was close by.
We had done a lab stage on the inspector of nuisances which filled in a lot of details and then reading this cache page we thought that we would have to try this one.
The artwork here was well done but expect for the pig and the cow we didn't really understand what it was supposed to be.
We must admit that we hunted here for quite awhile and even though we were looking for something much smaller it still eluded us until Diane finally spotted something and then after checking the second location we had the cache in hand and happily added our name to the log.
Many thanks Liz and Bruce for the cache.

Enjoying a wander through the Thursday market. On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird. I’ll leave the more interesting & detailed log to Mrs Geo (aka: SeasonedBird, Salty Chook, the Old Boiler, Old Chook, Dirty Bird or Angry Bird) because she writes so much more eloquently than I and usually has much more time to do so while I’m driving. It’s a great day for caching. TFTC Liz and Bruce

Out on the bike again today, on another mission. A milestone find is looming today, so I need to plan my finds carefully. I was out nice and early chasing the ALs in town and it was nice and quiet at most of the places I visited.
Third time this inspector has made an appearance today. he is becoming quite the nuisance. Some awesome murals around town. Thanks for bringing me to this one that could easily have been missed. My favourite one for the day too.
