Description
A participant in the Leap Frog Project Moving Cache Race. Tweezers will be required to remove the log!
The Budweiser Frogs are three life-like puppet frogs named "Bud", "Weis", and "Er", who began appearing in American television commercials for Budweiser beer during Super Bowl XXIX in 1995.
The commercial began with a scene of a swamp at nighttime, and a close-up of Bud rhythmically croaking his name. Later Weis and Er join in. They croak rather randomly for about ten seconds, until Bud, Weis, and Er begin croaking in sequence, thus forming the Budweiser name. Their croaking becomes quicker as the camera pulls back to show a bar with a large neon Budweiser sign glowing in the night.
Here's a link to the original commercial: http://youtu.be/pVcbasIb8lQ
My version of Bud, Weis and Er will start their journey in relative proximity but do not need to travel together. Photos with bottles of beer would be greatly appreciated, even more so if it's a Bud-Weis-Er!!
This is one of my entries in the Leap Frog Project Moving Cache Race which runs from 1-Dec-2011 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2012 23:59:59
Please help move this little fella as many times as he can within the borders of the ACT!
Logging this cache is easy:
First Step: Log your find with a 'Found' log (this will give you your smiley!)
Second Step: Please re-hide as soon as you can, taking note of the co-ords. Log a NEW 'Moved' log, adding the new co-ordinates and even a hint in the hint box if you wish. The hints box will update the main hint for the cache so that it will update in GSAK and the like.
Feel free to find and move the cache again once 2 people have found it since your last find.
Enjoy!

Found on the table at the "Central Victorian Annual Get Together". 
I later discovered that the cheeky little blighter had made the leap and ended up in my caching bag.
Perhaps he will find himself nearby to some Growling Grass Frogs this weekend.
Anything is possible.

Back out with a friend, as I am so small, I don't want to get lost!
Out and about checking out the scarecrows at Middleton so stopped to see if Leap Frog was there. After two recent dnfs I wasn't hopeful but there he was just as the hint said. Grabbed and will move on soon. TFTM

We checked our co-ords and they are correct. He is a very small gnome hidden under leaf litter on the north side of the gum tree and under the base of the red flowering bottle brush.
we had an extensive look but no luck today. Let's hope we just missed this little croaker hiding in the grass.
Back out after clocking up some K’s A trip down the coast to drop off some moveables gave us the opportunity to collect this one along the way.

This moveable is out again. Another step closer to meeting the requirements for the DragonZone Weekend Traveller Challenge (move 25 moveables between 250km and 500km).
We had planned one caching trip to Hobart and the Eastern Shore during The Christmas in July game. The ground kept shifting as new Trophy challenges were added so we needed to add more GA caches to out to find list. Not only did we need cache finds for Christmas in July, we needed a cache for a Frigid Solstice, 10 GA Dragon Zone caches for the 12th for the find 25 caches on each day of the month as well as 13 moveables that we need to move between 250 and 500km and a cache in the Sorell council area, we had found caches in Sorell before Dragon Zone but needed one after April 2014. Of course there were also unfound GC caches in the areas we were going to visit. All this meant our to find list was quite long and we were unlikely to manage to knock them all off today. We also needed a day that the weather Bureau forecast predicted would be mainly fine. July 12 looked like it.
We usually leave home quite early however with the threat of ice on sections of the Bass and Midlands highways we decided to head off just before 7:00. We did have the added complication of dosing our daughter's cat with its antibiotic pill. It only took one person to administer a pill to our last cat however daughter's cat, that is smaller definitely needs two people one to make sure the pill goes in and is swallowed and the second to firmly hold cat particularly her paws. After leaving our place we headed to daughter's abode where we were greeted by a nature strip strewn with her household garbage - today was bin day in her street. There was no bin in sight. It appeared that someone had tipped her bin out and stolen the bin. After dosing the cat we found a large bin bag, collected the scattered garbage and took it back to our place so that it could go out with ours tomorrow.
Off we headed again an hour later than we had intended. There was little likelihood of ice on the roads at this time even though there was quite thick frost on the road edges at Latrobe, Deloraine and Westbury. We turned off the Midlands Highway on to the Mud Walls Road and headed through Colebrook and Campania then on to Sorell and Midway Point. This was one of the moveable caches on our list.
Found this one in its safe hide will take it on a little trip to fulfil the requirements of a DZ Trophy.

Hi allrounder
Had an unexpected trip to Launceston for a family bereavement and today I took a drive to look around and to gather some caches as we went.
This was the ninth and last find of the day.
It was Sainted at 1458hrs after a quick search and find. Very busy here today; cars everywhere.
Great spot - thanks for bringing me here.
Found a total of nine caches today, walking 8.08km using 10853 steps.
Will re-hide as soon as possible
Cheers and thanks for the cache

Froggy on the move and waiting for a lift at the Frankford fire station.. thanks..!!
Hello again, found him happily sunning himself just outside Beaconsfield. Back out adventuring soon.. thanks..!!

Swapped for another moveable. The little frog is at the front of the pole 203487 awaiting a ride.
I had come up here to collect a couple of moveables a few nights ago and saw the sign that says they lock the gate at night. I was worried that I might have to spend the night here so I can back today during my lunch hour. Just enough time to grab and run the two moveables in the area.

Must be something about stumps in reserves, they seem to attract frogs.. thanks..!!
Located froggy lurking about the base of a stump at Trevallyn. Will be hopping on to new adventures soon.. thanks..!!

This little frog is back out ready to play in the Trevallyn Reserve
This tiny frog was delighted to be out and about and has settled in a garden bed beside the river.
Found this battered little frog travelling with another cacher. Will release it soon for a tour of the NW
Must have had wrong co-ordinates in as I was way off course. There were so many rocks so I gave up. When I was in the car I put co-ordinates in again and a better and closer position came up. One last look before I left the area and I soon had this little frog jumping into my hand.

Quick find this afternoon. I came looking for a gnome and found a dipsomaniac frog! Oh well, I found the gnome as well. I'm about to stroll down to the Australian for a beer and a steak, I'll take er along. Hopefully they'll admit a frog.
Rated: for Overall Experience
Moved to a forested area in Shoalhaven Heads. Has the company of two other small moveables. Park at S34 50.237 E150 44.412 & it is only a short stroll.
Virtual move only. Waymarking in Tallong today so hopefully will find a suitable location in that area.
Found with a bunch of his mates on a wild & windy day - thanks to Throsbyonchurch for the special delivery.
I could say I found ER, but in reality, it's probably a comme ci comme ca. It was pretty funny chasing movable gnomes 
, angels 
, frogs etc down the freeway only to catch them and be plucking them from their hide'y hole and bursting at the seams carrying 
these wiggly giggly thingys back to a box in your mobile and clutching onto them almost for dear life. The whole look is hilarious. An enormous Thank You to Just a Cacher and Black Bunny for finding ER and dropping him off. Thank you allrounder for sharing ER.Found with Just a cacher on an afternoon moveable hunt.
Thanks for the moveable.

Went out to near Yass, and found a surprising number of movables, all in one spot.

Feeling really cranky, you travel all this this way to collect caches and people don't log that they have taken them, or they've had them in their possession for months. 
No consideration. Ruins the game!!! and it's unfair. ..... i'm just cranky because there are supposed to be 86 movables in the ACT to date and I can't access the majority of them and I'm fining this to be the case most of the time. Right or wrong from what I can see I can see why cachers don't bother too much about Geocaching Australia caches.

Moved a little later after finding to above coords. Keep on leaping..
Found today when the opportunity arose. On a caching run. Will move on shortly.

Moved down to Rookwood this morning and swapped him for a gegnome!
Another frog I missed out on during the frog race, but came and grabbed it on a warm afternoon while out gnoming. He's now on the front seat of the car looking for a new home. Thanks allrounder.
sorry for holding onto this frog for too long. it is back near a swamp and mangroves
It looks like this cache may be MIA. As such we'll archive it to stop it turning up in queries and lists. If the cache owner can confirm a location they can resurrect the cache by placing an "Unarchived" log against it.
Had a look for this one while trying to track down Jac's moveable but this one has gone and perhaps should be archived.

Found this cache with LuckyL1on. These being new to me, I was surprised by how many caches there were and all stored in the hollow of the tree within just a large plastic bag. No real discretion involved here. Anyway logging this find as one of the first of this type I've found. Although Lucky was the one that led me to these.

#GA168 - 21:20; Out on our nightly caching run with MrDamage and I convinced him we should drop by and log a stash of GCA moveables after picking up our nightly GC cache. Parked near where I had calculated GZ would be and kicked the GPSr into gear only to have the batteries go flat 
. Swapped the torch batteries into the GPSr and made our way to GZ where there was in fact a stash just waiting to be logged. Took the time to log them, but left for others to move them on. TFTC allrounder
