Description
Please Return me to Hobart
I am Geo Wife's entry in the Leapfrog cache race of 2011 / 2012. I am a small frog sitting on a rock. Although I am not tiny I have magnets on my base so I can be placed in many locations. You don’t have to use the magnets; they are just there if you need them!
There is no log book, simply record your find on the GCA web site and also record your new location and hint via a “move” log on the same web site.
Have fun and keep on croaking (caching)

I have him know so will archive so he can rest at home. He's been a busy froggie
Came across Trust a Frog doing the round of the table at an event. TFTF.
Rated: for Overall Experience
On my return from a FTF I had to stop by on collect a few frogs to add to my growing collection.
Attended the event "Haunting Lives" tonight at the Carlyle Hotel organised by red tag. What a great night we had.
Part way through the evening, many moveables were placed on the table and many logs were made. This was just one I made as the circuit of the table progressed.

Met up again at the event while doing the rounds of the table. They chose to come home with us. TFTF.

This was one of many frogs bounding around the dining table during dinner tonight. I managed to grab him as he came past me and got his number. Thanks for the cache Budgietas
I saw this frog at the "Haunting Lives" event but left it for someone else to take with them.
Out on a lovely track with lots of history hidden away.
That's the second frog I've picked up from the same hide!
I've been trying to work through my "cache hitlist", two thirds of which are frogs and gnomes, a lot of which are missing or picked up, so it was nice to be able to grab one.
Now that I have both "Trust" and "Believe", I'll put them out together!

CITO'd at this location for the event (as it's been a good...but ugly with rubbish...area for hiding movables)then went and hid this little fellow. He comes as three for the price of one! Hiding with Flo and Hopping for Champagne. Thanks budgie.
Nice one! I thought the phrase went, In God we trust, but perhaps it actually is In frogs we trust? Great hide, but time to keep on frogging.
Over to the Eastern Shore with some others.
Hi Budge
A very quick find by accident after finding Flo frog.

Sorry for the delay but have been laid up with a work injury for about 6 weeks and haven't been abe to go caching. In a new home now
Taken all the frogs and a couple of gnomes for a drive up the East Coast to Scamander. They'll all be here for a little while. Don't bother looking cuz Tim Tam is going to find them all....
Found under a very large bush with a couple of other frogs. Going via Longford to pick up another couple of frogs for the trip back to Hobart and will release these frogs back into the wild soon. Tim Tam will give them the once over health check before I let them go...
Grabbed this guy again as he sat looking bored a long way from water. Will get him back out soon
Found Trust an appropriate hiding place. Perhaps it's a sign but I think Trust found this spot a revelation.
Handed to Tassie Trekkers over coffee at Mt Nelson while planning next frog hunt
Ahhh... That's why I couldn't find it! Better go and log my other find quickly then!
Quick find. Good hide. Had to rescue as not had this frog before.

Hi Budge
Have had a mixed day looking for frogs on my way back to Huonville. Found two to date, this made a third.
Ilikelenses hid them well and took a little search to find him.
But "trust" me I did find "Trust a Frog" at 1236hrs. He had a mate with him; bet you can guess what? Together they make a good foursome. When you see the pics you'll "believe" my story.
Cheers and TFTC

Trust is now with believe, so 2 finds in one!
Five fat frogs sat on a log eating some most delicious flies. yum yum
Found this frog far from where it was placed. It (apparently) hopped into a bag and was put into the NTrailTB and transported to Launceston where it has been partying and seeing in the New Year in comfort at a swank motel room. These partying frogs were given a choice of wine or beer or mixed spirits.....
Once they recover, we will put them back out.

All it took was a bit of glue
To fix the frog up as good as new
Now he's enjoying a splendid view
Of a vast ocean blue.
But will he be the same again?
His trust was broken now, and when
Inevitably, he moves again
Will he regain his trust, then?

Umm. There has been a slight... incident, with this frog. All our frogs were stuffed in a bag, ready to be re-hidden, and we were collecting some more in Ulverstone, and stuffing them in the bag as well. And one of them was a big heavy thing. *cough*RumandCroak*cough* And he sort of, er, sat on some of the smaller frogs. And Trust a Frog got a bit... crushed.
In other words, it's off to the Leap Frog Hospital...

Had to brave the muggle-infested park on my ownsome for the three frogs deposited here... Actually, it's quite a peaceful and quiet little park, but muggles tend to wander through at unexpected moments, and the lunch hour wasn't the best time for frog-hunting. I spent a lot of time fiddling aimlessly with the GPS, pretending it was a mobile phone... Anyway, I finally snatched all those froggies out of the trees!

Trust a Frog is hiding in a quiet park in Burnie within waving distance of Believe a Frog Too and Brian the Brain-Frog.
Found Trust a Frog on our second try. The first time there was a family of fisher muggles right where we needed to be. They wouldn't go away even when it started to rain so we went back at low tide. That tricked them!
Left Trust enjoying a beautiful river view
Picked up Trust on my way home tonight. Will make sure they move along tomorrow.

These delightful and very pleasant frogs decided to wander off into a tree and watch the locals at play. The are was once the Ulverstone Golf Course but is now a park used by many.
Picked up on an early morning raid from the North West. Trust a Frog is really in a hurry and said "Take me far and take me fast." We'll have to watch this frog because he is itching to hit the road again.
Just noticed that this frog is third on the ladder for hops, only one hop off the pace.
Needs finding and hopping on ASAP!

Trust a Frog is enjoying being by the river!
I'm not scared of heights I trust you will find me soon.
Nabbed this one this morning whilst he/she was peacefully contemplating Whirlpool Reach. Appears to have developed a taste for oysters.
Found!
I thirty I saw the dgt / guripper mobile go past when I was mowing the grass! I did wave, honest!

Dropped off across the river from our house! We often see people here fishing and camping so thought it would be a good place for a frog!

Right on the edge of the entrance to a lovely park.
Nice quick and easy find on a slight detour on the way to work this morning. Having a well deserved rest beside their kin Believe. That frog of Cheesy pigs, Frig, is causing them some issues though. It could turn into a bit of an affray on the desk....
Dropped him off whilst collecting another froggy nearby.
This was an easy find but the tricky part was his little brother nearby lol. Tftc
