There are some things you lose with age. Some are inevitable and some you don’t know you’ve lost until you need it.

One of the things I’ve just discovered I’ve lost is the ability to carry multiple beers. Back in my uni days I would often be able to carry 4 schooners in just my hands. Back then they also made carpet that was resistant to spilling a few drops of beer.

Then maybe I turned 30 and the four schooners changed to three. Still it wasn’t a big deal to make a second round trip to the bar. Then somehow you find yourself spilling 3 beers and it downgrades to two at a time and you realise you have to start using a tray.

Once you’ve discovered you have shelved your masculinity, using a tray isn’t that bad. Although now I’m getting to the age where even carrying 4 schooners on a tray is a precarious affair. Bugger getting old. tftc

No longer hanging

We had read the clue so started our search at the nearest tree to where our GPS were indicating. Not finding it there, we moved on to the next and the the next, and then spread out to hunt around every option. Scratching our heads, we were about to give up when I spotted a tiny bit of the lid, poking out from a hiding spot that it is definitely not in accordance with the clue. This one was missing the last time we attempted it, so it was great to be able to turn the frown into a smiley. Thanks Waz and Vik
 
06-Jul-23
We were in the area again today so having noticed this one had been replaced since our last visit decided to pop in for another try. Despite what the clue said it was indeed at ground level. TFTC

Awesome hiding spot, wife nearly found it but got stopped by a spider letting me swoop in for the victory
 
01-Jul-23
On a brisk Saturday morning I headed north to pick up a few caches and enjoy the great outdoors. After finding a good spot to park the car it was a short walk to ground zero where it didn’t take long to locate the prize. Log extracted and a mark made of prosperity. Returned the cache safely to its hiding place and then on to the next challenge.

A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found.

Cheers

Out for a playday with teamdfl Big Grin

Time for a few trads all in one area [^] Good thing I brought the tall one with me. TFTC, Waz and Vik.

Mr10 and I had to hang around this area for a whole day, waiting to see if Miss12 was going to be ok staying at school camp before we drove back home without her. That meant 4 hours of caching and exploring in a heat wave. Mr10 was not impressed, not one bit. So I turned it into a competition - who was going to find the most caches. He upped the anti and wanted $3 if he won. Hmmmm 4 hours of non-whingey caching for $3. I'm in! I even made sure he won. At one point he did admit that although he "wasn't having fun" he was "enjoying himself"

One nil. In his favour.

Out for a day of adventure with IolantheK. 3 ALs completed on Bribie. Coffee & date loaf by the beach for morning tea. A lovely seafood lunch, and back to hunting another AL with a few bonus trads nearby.

Nice quick find here thanks.

Found while walking around completing the Adventure Lab. A lovely area and this is a spot that I haven’t walked down before. Thanks for the hide.
 
12-Feb-23
Heading home and detoured to grab a few caches on my way and this was one of them. Once at GZ the cache was soon in hand and once the log was signed all was returned as found.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for me and others to enjoy.

Ninja maintenance?
 
18-Dec-22
I headed to the trepidation with trepidation after reading the previous DNF log but thought that I might be lucky to be looking at a different angle and I was surprised that I spotted the cache quickly until I found a clean log in the cache. It appears that the cache has recently been replaced with a nice clean one.

Today, baby Warren and I had an early start with a northern drive to Caboolture to participate in parkrun, and we used the opportunity to complete [Central Lakes Caboolture](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/a7df1f4d-e91c-4a0f-adb0-023897a20506) Adventure Lab. It was then followed by [JaT's Community Celebration Event](https://coord.info/GC8K07H), where we had a lovely walk around the lakes area completing the [Caboolture - Centenary Lakes Park](https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/9c0d34cf-53ca-4489-8daf-9b64d9ef7e7a) Adventure Lab. We finished our half-day excursion with a hike up Saddleback Mountain / Mount Elimbah, which was a pleasant and scenic walk.
In the afternoon, I took a drive to Mitchelton's [Secret Santa Picnic - Community Celebration Event](https://coord.info/GC8K08T), and then visited a few geocaches around Ferny Grove, of which I had been meaning to return to after not having the correct TOTT when we walked [I'm Hooked on Geocaching](https://coord.info/GC38CEN).

After attending parkrun, we rolled the pram over to this location on our way back to our car. We spent a good 5-10 minutes searching the various trees for a coloured cache type that we had found in the series earlier today, but alas, this cache alluded us. Perhaps this cache remains and we were just cache-blind, but missing a pink bison did feel odd. There were notes about the feasibility of this cache tether, so I also searched around the ground, but nada. It looks like I'll need to return to this location another day; Thanks anyway Waz and Vik for the cache placement.

We needed a cache today and decided to grab this newly published one as we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel with the ones in our area, so a few new caches are always welcome.

When we arrived there was hundreds of baby frogs jumping everywhere, how cute! We treaded lightly to avoid smooshing them, so yeah, you’ve been warned!

We had no issue finding the cache, but the way it’s currently hidden, we don’t think it will last long and may need need to be reattached in another manor.

Thanks for bringing us here.

Following in the footsteps of others, including fng-affl, my son and daughter-in-law, I came here to find what I thought was my music idol, but I was not too disappointed to find not a singer, but a lovely little pink bison, out in the open, signed the log, and replaced back where found, dropped a few pine needles as cover, all is good here today, Thanks Waz and Vik
 
10-Nov-22
We parked on the side of the road and walked across to GZ where the little pinkie was spotted. All good here, log signed and replaced as found. Thanks Waz and Vik for placing this one in the lovely area.

Another short walk to GZ, started my search in that one, then that one, then it was third time lucky. All good with the cache, signed log and returned as found. TFTC Waz and Vik Smile
