up in the heights of Goonelabah.
There I uncovered Flynn the frog
and gave him a seat in my old car.
There's a large expanse in inland New South Wales
where there's plenty of water to test
I've been considering travelling south that way
but I've been told it might not be best.
Either way Flynn is ready to roll
and roll on it shall tomorrow
Come scorching heat, flooding rains,
rain, hail or even snow.
Photo: One of the other folks I picked up today seems to have given Flynn a scare.
He's happy to keep waiting for a lift.
I am sure Flynn is going to be happy here until someone comes to pick him up. His hiding spot is right opposite the 'swamp' in the middle of the park. I am sure there will be friends for him to hang out with and certainly plenty of bugs to eat. Apparently the bugs at my house were not tasty enough. I don't know about that since I prefer chocolate to insects.
Good lucky Flynn Frog.
I think I have the perfect spot to rehide you. Just wait for the moved log to find out.
Thank you for the moveable.

I was out caching and saw that some moveables that I hadn't seen and some that I had seen, had been left here so I have grabbed them to move interstate in the next week.
Thanks for putting out the movable for me to enjoy this find evening.
Thanks for the cache
Was stuck for a while due to the holder not doing too much travelling lately.
The tub at the drop off point was broken and damp inside so will need to be replaced (we left the TB's in a plastic bag).
With a day off and an event in ‘The Rock’ plus pre-geocaching lead to a great day out. I also got a FTF on the cache ‘Break the Drive – Urana’ (GA12529). I started out with collecting the finds around Urana which included the most disgusting cache I have ever found (GC3BDFX). [xx(][xx(] I completely disapprove of that cache and hope to never see a hide like that ever again. [xx(][xx(] I visited a few different spots around and I enjoyed the ‘Leap year 2020 at The Rock’ event hosted by B&MG. A great BBQ and many geo-conversations were had by all. There were also many GCA moveable caches signed while we were there. TB visit on all caches. I would like to thank all CO’s of the caches I found and for allowing them to bring joy to me and the rest of the caching community. TFTE and TFTC’s
One of a plethora of movable and personal caches discovered at Cybergran V's February get-together in Shepparton.

Well, Black Bunny, this one is still alive and wandering around the caching community.
He was found on the 19th January and I have been waiting for him to be unarchived. He had both feet broken when I received him, but Muggle Hubby worked his magic and glued them back on.
Currently in transit
Cache in good condition.
Could you please unarchive this cache.
Thanks in advance, Rod - n0w0rries
Will move him along shortly.
(Needs to be "unarchived")

Lovely to meet up with everyone and find these moveables.
Travel on to far places
He certainly seems alive and well to me.
You presence had been recorded and logged, and it was left for someone else to move it along.
For an archived Frog you certainly are hopping around a lot.
Maybe Black Bunny might unarchive you as you have come out of hibernation.
I found this cache in the back of my car. Apparently Kelly Gang snuck it in there during June LWE event. Will try and place it somewhere soon...

We even visited twice when we discovered that a nearby multi-cache ended right here as well.
We couldn't find the multi-cache either
Signed log and left him for someone else to move on
Will place him again soon.

He is now watching over a far away water pool and would love to have someone take him there to check the water quality.
Meanwhile, he waits patiently, sheltered from rain and sun in a spot with a great view
When I find a new spot for him, I will update his new coords

He got a little lost and ended up here.
Please save him.
Nice easy find he was.

If we get a chance we'll have another look today but it depends on how early it gets really hot!

Flyn has moved uphill a bit from the water, in search of new frontiers. A nice scenic spot near a GC cache we just found.
Use the hint for an easy find.
We found this only a few metres from our first cache, so we know the spot very well. We looked in the wrong spot at first, but geoson found the right place soon enough.
Thanks Black Bunny, we'll move on soon.
As I worked my way around Wattle Park grabbing frogs my frog bag was getting too full so Flyn decided he liked this location so jumped out of the bag and hopped behind some foliage. The view includes a very froggy pond and I know he will have friends calling to him tonight!
I was very happy to see five frogs in a row in a park just near the pickup location for e-facit. All I had to do was wait for her to call me to request a pickup! The call finally came and after picking e-facit up we used the opportunity for her to add some minutes to her learners book. Arrived near GZ and after parking we decided to start with this frog and work our way south. I had visited this specific spot earlier for another frog so checked the hide and found this guy!. It's such a good choice that I decided to leave the Sistema Twins for another cacher to find.
Thanks Black Bunny, a good sized frog? Or is it really a toad
