Out and about with Kolour after the CITO collecting some of the sailboat caches, many of these have an attribute required for another challenge this month.This one ended up taking way longer than it should have, we muddled the co-ords, but with help from the CO we were put back on the right track and the cache was quickly found. The mozzies didn't mind that we had hung around for so long!Thanks chamad for the puzzle and cache, enjoying collecting more of this series.

After todays CITO, Willis007 and I met up at Pinkenba to find more of this series, especially those with the off road attribute for a challenge. I had found the original large cache last year, so had the solved coordinates. I put the offset information into my personal note when this first came out but we couldnt find the cache. With help from the CO, we found it about 20m out for me. When I got home, I saw that the offset was different - I have no idea how that happened. At least geopup had fun chasing the brush turkey. Logbook signed and replaced as found. Last one of this series except most of the challenges which will take a long time to qualify. Tftc

Solved whilst out and about in the area. It was not long after parking the geo wagon, before I was at GZ where the cache was found dry and in good condition.Cheers

I have spent a bit of time over the last couple of weeks trying to solve all of the puzzles for this geo art series. Today I had a couple of hours spare between family commitments so I headed over the gateway to Pinkenba to squeeze in as many finds as I could. I recognised the requirements of the puzzle here and pretty soon I had some coordinates. At GZ I took a walk a little off path and read the cache details which told me what i was looking for. Eventually the new container was spied. The colour really blends in with the surrounds, and the log book and pen provided are all good.Thanks very much for the cache placement and creation of the series Chamad. A truly super effort. Cheers

Out with T-Tech for a couple of hours. Getting the finals sorted for this one took a couple of messages to the CO, but once at GZ today we made a quick find. TFTC, and for replacing it yet again, chamad.

Instead of solving this puzzle with traditional pen and paper, I decided to take a photo on my iPad Mini and use my Apple Pencil to do the solve. It was different, and at least easy to erase if there were errors. Not sure if I like it. I prefer pen and paper, but it was an experiment, and useful for that at least.The cache was found easily thanks to the CO. Again, I forgot to take my customary cache photo.Thanks chamad.

Thanks to the lovely girls of Davinells who spent a little time wandering around looking for the cache. Turns out I wrote a number wrong in the finals and well, It Has Been Fixed. Yeah it happens but at least it is working properly now. Oh please do not use beardmans numbers as they are incorrect now and I think he meant to help to say the old numbers were -004 and +.010 (not -.010). Regardless it has all been fixed up again.

Solved this one at work on Fridaty arvo , when I should have been more productive. Heading home later on, I realised it was still not found. With only 6% left on my phone battery, I swung by for a look, hoping for a quick find. By the lack of footprints in the soft ground around GZ, I reckon I was the first here. I recognised the previous GZ and faithfully searched where the phone pointed a short distance away. I expanded the search. I even considered if it was a tree fishing cache and wondered if the CO had neglected to include another specific attribute No luck.Then my phone went flat. I had been secretly hoping another cacher would swing by to help with the search, but alas. With no communications or torch, and the mozzies getting aggressive, I headed for home with my tail between my legs. Turns out Davinells made the find about 20 minutes after I left. Such is life. Thanks chamad. I will be back soon. Pete

We were FTF on the second instalment of this cache when we were in the right place at the right time. Today we happened to fly in to Brisbane after a holiday in Tasmania and as we started to drive home we were alerted that this was still available. Quick change in route and we headed into GZ. The search took a bit longer than it should have and the mozzies got their fill but happy to claim **FTF** once again.Thanks chamadFind #6304
