Opps, unfortunately life has got in the way of art here, and I had completely forgotten about Dopey having gone awandering. Yes, he will return, after we come back from a caching holiday for a couple of weeks. Thanks to the reviewer for the reminder prompt.

After hearing from the gang that this was a must do cache. Mr Felix headed out early this morning before we left Gladstone.
Alas he must be Dopey as he was unable to find this fellow today. [B)]

Staying in Boyne Island for a couple of nights, we decided to grab a few caches while in the area. Very cool cache indeed. Thanks Bundyrumandcoke, this one deserves a fave point for sure
Dopey has been cleaned up. Just have to get him back out there.

Dopey went for a swim today. He would have been about 5 ft underwater today, during the floods that occurred in town. He survived, and amazingly, the container was dry inside. A quick clean up, and hopefully he will get back out there before we head off to Oz Mega.

A well made cache that looks like it has been worked very hard on! I love the 'twist' that is applied to this cache that makes it definitely my favourite so far. TFTC!!!
A morning drive to log some more local caches before breakfast.
Very much liked retrieving this cache, then it got harder.
Leaving a FP for the placement

Was that a group of cachers in a white dual cab ute we just spotted on the hunt for Dopey?
Oh cool. Love it. Nice location for a stroll, and a beautiful cache with a twist. Thankyou. I left a tiny swag item in an appropriate spot to increase the fun SL and returned everything as we found it. Fave when I get to the Web site. All us well here.
Found by The Noodler. A very inventive hide. Unfortunately the other half of the team slipped, and did some damage. TFTC
This is great - definitely our favourite of the day and in the running for favourite so far (the issue with there being two of us - no tie-breaker vote)
Awesome spot, Phoenix found it this time. Great Anzac Day find....!
We are addicted

Dopey was asleep when we found. Snuck the log and put it back before we woke him
Cache Nr. 3755
Very cool cache. I really liked Dopey's hide.
Thanks for showing his home Quiri

Dopey has had yet another rebuild, and has morphed back towards his original condition.

Bundyrumandcoke, you continue to amaze us. Just when we think we've found the coolest cache, we are surprised by yet another beauty! Note: don't leave your pen in the car...
Wow I'm impressed... Wondering to myself how to get it out and then I realised...
Beautiful day canoeing on Lake Callemondah slipped over at morning tea time to find this one.

Finding and getting this ingenious cache sure took some time and it was great fun and we did love the contents with it keeping us guessing for a while system!
What an amazing amount of planning and implementation must have gone into this very differnt and funny cache. Geokids would so love to find it - also big Geokids too!! It is with great pleasure that we give you a fav from us - a well deserved one for sure!
TFTC Bundyrumandcoke - we are so enjoying your many varied and different, and sometimes, funny caches - much appreciated.

Oh, so THAT is why it has all of the favs. Well worth one! Loved it, thanks. First night geocache. Can't wait to find the rest of the series.
Found this one, retrieved it and had to laugh. This one gets a fav point for fun and entertainment value. TFTC.
[Blue]# 12625[/Blue] Found on our 2015 Winter escape trip to Qld.
Another excellent winter day for a drive to around Gladstone.
I met up with the CO and found this interesting 'micro' in the bush.
One of the best this 'size' and a fav point as well.

After setting up in the Tannum Sands Caravan park, we headed into town to find a few caches.
What a great cache, lots of work put into the creation of this one. Found lots of redd herrings, then at last I hit gold.
Worth a favourite point.

It did appear in the internet news! http://m.gladstoneobserver.com.au/news/police-camp-out-over-dopey-tip/2588580/
Hmmm, seems as though Dopey was sought by a cacher today, and stealth mode wasn't fully utilised by the cacher. Suspicious activity report to the police. Police came, found, and recognised the cache for what it was, and replaced.
I was contacted by the local newspaper, who became aware of all this via a police scanner. I have just had an interview with a reporter about caching. Dopey might be famous if it appears in the paper.
No harm done.

Spotted by 'D'. After a bit of effort (& laughing) we finally got to sign the log. Thanks for a great cache.
Easy find once we had the right coordinates in the GPS. A nice tour of the countryside. Took lock Left marble. Took frog left clip
Dopey is doing well. This is my 500th cache find which I was quite excited about, so much so that it wasn't until I had retrieved Dopey and had the logbook in hand that I realised I had left the writing tool in the car .... I felt quite dopey! It was worth going back to the car so I could sign the log properly. Great cache.

[font=Comic Sans MS]Hi there Bundyrumandcoke. We found your cache "Geez, I must be Dopey!!" at 11:24:00 AM today.
This was our 6th cache find in a caching run of 12 Finds & 3 DNFs today. (So this now makes our find count 9609.)
[Blue]
Today's cache run was primarily to add to our current streak of "Most Consecutive Days" cached, (which has been going since New Years Day 2014.) Our "next closest" route took us to some wonderful & scenic locations.
We found Dopy to be smashed, and not from too much bundy. Some of the contents were beyond arms reach, but luckily the log book wasn't too far away.
[/Blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent. (We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.)
Cache Condition: Container is broken, probably beyond repair.The log book is in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.[font=Verdana]

We found Dopy to be smashed, and not from too much bundy. Some of the contents have spilled beyond arms reach. Some owner TLC will be required to fix him again.
Dopey will be attended to in the next week or so. A local cacher has been extremely generous with an offer to look after a few of my caches that have been in need of some attention for a while. I am extremely grateful to Zoe for her help, as I don't get to Gladstone very much anymore, and usually there is little time for caching when I do.
Cheers

Dopey was broken!!! Have collected all the pieces scattered around but needs surgery still :'(
Dropped in on our favourite cache to drop off a travel bug. This bug has been in my possession for far too long. Was going to take it to Brissy but the caches we stopped at had either been muggled or archived so it returned with us. Have dropped it here so that someone may have a bit more success at moving it on.
Ha Ha Ha what a riot!!!. Now all the hints, clues and observations make sense. They hadn't helped me much while searching. I must be Dopey's long lost twin. I finally found a reasonably close parking spot but Dopeys front path was under water most of the way and the green slime is soooo slippery. Ok to wade through though. I must find another cache like this before I leave my house sitting at Boyne next week. TFTC
Wow, this was different. But going through all that I kept thinking I hope there are no snakes here! TFTC
Left the caravan at the free stay, again, for another assault on Gladstone caches.
A good variety for a small community.
Good fun cache, seen this type before, but still like them
Found in good condition and well hidden.
Thanks for the cache, Bundyrumandcoke.

i love/hate this one. Mr S is looking around and does the man thing not pic things up but i told him to and ta dum there it is
Wow what a unique cache! Thoroughly enjoyed the discovery, even in the rain. The journey across the "waterfall" into the rushing river was marvellous to share with Louie's Pack. Really happy this cache find was saved for my trip up from Adelaide. Picked up the travel bug to continue it's journey.

Thanks for the cache!!

Little bit or searching but the cache was soon in hand and got lucky with the 35mm canisters and found the log book with my second canister. Great cache and good twist. Fav point added. TFTC.

I just hope Dopey has survived the recent downpour. He should have, but may be a little bit wet.

My kids were very excited to be taking their muggle cousins on their first geocaching trip. I thought from the favourites that this mit be a good place to start and I was right (though hopefully havent set the bar too high for future caches!). Always happy to give a favourite point to a hider who has obviously taken the time and effort to put together this cache for the enjoyment of others.
Three from three for the evening! What a wicked cache, my Mr's first find couldn't have been more hilarious Very creative, TFTC!
perhaps one of the coolest caches i have seen yet.......thanks bundy for making my short stay in Gladstone memorable.... [:o)] You have my favourite vote.........

When we found this it had 6 "favourites". We're going to make it 7. Fantastic work Bundy. We've enjoyed your caches all over this area and out as far as Emerald (at least on the road from there to Rocky). J reckons you have too much time on your hands. I reckon you're just plain inventive. SL. TNLN. TFTC
Gee wizz how frustrating "Nope not this one"........very enjoyable though TFTC
Beautiful day to do cachings today...Ms Bushies2 spotted it then Mr bushies2 retrieved it...wow brilliant cache we love it!!! Took a while before we were able to log it...it is certainly one of the best caches we have ever seen, well done Bundy. Thanks again.
I remember years ago dad making up this cache, thinking he was sneaky with it and sure enough he was took a while to find the cache after finding it. But my memory does serve me well. it is a pain in the butt.
Our 5074th overall find.
Shell and I had a great chuckle at this one. It is amazing the ingenuity of cachers! This one is almost as funny as Map Monkeys Lament in Brissy.
Thanks to Bundyrumandcoke for the cache.

Found this one with the kids today. They thought it was great. I have to admit that after we found it, all the clues suddenly made perfect sense. Took a little while to find the log. Cheers Fergus

Found with Dotty_Loves_You.
We loved finding this cache! Both very impressed with the effort that has gone into it. Made is laugh when we opened it up!
