The initial search didnt reveal cache. On checking logs we realised there was an issue and noted the CO had been advised. We did find the temporary log but this cache does need a little TLC. Thanks to Bounty Trackers for the cache.
 
16-May-24
Weve contacted the CO about the cache needing a lot of TLC, have placed a log with what remains of it to keep the cache alive in the meantime.Great local history about the area, geez these new places in here are very very fancy, oh well ya can never go wrong with real estate. Thanks Bounty Trackers for the cache and the lil bit of local history.

Grollo collects property I collect caches! The planets aligned and a spontaneous decision to head down to the Island for some sea breeze, ozone and coastal vistas on a free day AND of course caching (or casheering as dear mum would say) transpired. This great hobby is such an invitation to explore aspects of any location and the ISLAND has plenty of that. Quick find at GZ with a good hint. TFTc and the FUN.

Been meaning to get here for a while. Having walked around Cape Woolamai in the sunshine today and picking up a few other unfound caches , I drove over here to check out the Grollo suburb- big houses in sterile streets. -found a park and soon had this nifty cache in hand. All dry here. Thanks Bounty Trackers.

Thanks goes to Bounty Trackers for this cache.
We were enjoying an afternoon wander today doing a few Ad Lab locations and a few traditionals. It was a delightful day with sunny skies and about 21 degrees.
The ocean was pretty flat and a few boats were out enjoying some fishing.
Some very big houses in this estate too.
thanks for showing us this area.

I knew the CO was in the area when lots of Found It logs came in from him over the last few days. When notification came in there was a new cache to help continue my streak for a challenge only about 12 km from home . The chance of a {FTF} is also a rarity too good to let go. I convinced TEM that he needed to do something in San Remo and of course this cache was on the way. To improve my chances of a FTF we went there fast. I prefer to call the area as Cleeland House, the PI ancestral home of my friends the Cleelands.
At GZ there was a lovely new park, for me at least, nicely landscaped and accessible to a variety of wheeled, light vehicle. I avoided lying on the ground to retrieve the cache as immediate furniture offered another option. Of course I thought it was a very strong magnet until I remembered the hint and used a different method of opening a container. It took a few attempts at returning the log to the container before I could do it without damaging the container. Great location and perfect weather made a great day for a find!
It was great to catch up with you yesterday Bounty Trackers for a hot chocolate and chat. Till next time.
