Description
Competitor in the Leapfrog Race
A moveable cache.
Placed as part of the Leapfrog game from December 1 2011 to January 31 2012. After this time please just keep it moving.
Hi my name is Jeremiah. There are four of these caches in our series, this one (Jeremiah) has been placed by my wife (others placed by my daughter, son and me).She hopes to see it travel further than the others and be photographed in as many places as possible.
Hope you enjoy looking for this one, can't wait to see the photos of his escapaeds.
P.S I like being near water, preferably with the green theme (either place name, street, or just a green location).

Checked on my old traditional cache which was still alive so left this there to make a 2for1. The frog is in front of the cache in the hidey hole!
Winter is here... it's time to move. The Dragons awaken.

Since I was taking a walk around the lake I just had to stop by and say hello to my old friend, all is well.

Wow ....it's so funny to see the current location of Jeremiah..within 1km of my parents house in Sydney, he has travellled from Perth all the way to Sydney and landed so close by.(if only my parent were technology savvy - well they are in their 80's). Thanks to everyone that has been looking after him.
A short walk above the dam (I did it in work shoes) to the junction of two tracks. I heard many frogs croaking as I placed him so a good new home!
Wow that is a LOT of caches my BB brought home! I would have gone too but some of us had to go to work. Now my house is full of Gnomes, frogs, Bingos and Angels! I’m going to have to do something about this and start hiding them again before they take over our unit once and for all!
Operation: Dawn of War (Clan Phoenix Gnomeland Raid)
Cache Condition: He was a bit grubby but after a brush up is back to his best!
Operation Summary: Leaving Sydney at 4am to reach The Gnomelands by dawn I kicked off the 'The Great Mount Piddington Moveable Challenge' with a raid of freedom to release over 60 moveables from their mountain prison to freedom. 4.5 hours of morning caching saw a good few sack-fulls return with me to Sydney.
The caches have been moved to St Leonards for some TLC and a bath so don’t go looking for them there. They will be released shortly in various locations.

Fourth day forage within the Gnomelands ... end of a long session and weary, likely did not see what was there.
Jeremiah has joined with a group of disenchanted Gnomes in the occupation of this tract of land, the aim being to secede from Australia and create their own independent country.
However with Gnomes in charge this may turn into a dictatorship, it remains to see if emmigration is greater than immigration.

Jeremiah has joined a mass exodus of moveables led by renegade Gnomes, who knows what they plan to do? They are all in hiding for now while hatching their nefarious plans. No point looking for any of them they are nowhere to be found until they are ready to reveal their ultimate goal.

rogerw3 has moved quite a few moveables lately . . . including Jeremiah, whom I hadn't seen for a while!
He'll soon be on his way north and west . . . Jeremiah, I mean, but also probably rogerw3.

Jeremiah has made a short stopover in Leura to say hello to the local cacher. Don't bother looking for him, he has been picked up.
Jeremiah has come back from his holiday and is more than pleased to make a train trip up the mountains. He has been feeling a bit lonely, but not for much longer.

Heeding the call of the gnomes. Jeremiah reporting for secret geoduty....sir!
Jeremiah has joined the brotherhood and will soon be with his brethren.
Jeremiah came on a lovely walk along Salt Pan Creek before he hopped away.
Jeremiah has rested here so long I had to dig him out from under the leaves. He's resting on my front porch.
'Jeremiah' has decided to have a rest in this quiet spot, close by to a friend.
Every time i see this name the song starts going thru my head. Spotted at the Blackheath frog party - where frogs far outnumbered the humans. TFT
Hadn't seen Jeremiah since Concord West, so was pleased to log him when he arrived, along with a great many other froggies, at Blackheath, NSW.
Seems to be in good shape, despite his long travels.
Left him on the table for others to move . . .
Bon voyage, Jeremiah!

Nice find today among all the Frogs, Gnomes and others over 70 participants as well as the odd human, some of them very odd indeed!
Many Frogs and Gnomes went to Canberra and who knows where from there, and many stayed to be relocated around the Sydney area very soon.
Due to a mishap during transport from Blackheath, (the Frog bag fell off the seat on the train!) Jeremiah has a severed foot, just as well the Clwydd Hospital is next door. He will be well very soon.

A quick grab with Just a cacher and Candy Cane 101 on a run up to Sydney to catch up with blossom* and Strike a Light. A pub dinner was called for and an impromptu Frog gathering occured. After all frogs had been fed and watered it was time for them to hop off.

Off to the pub for dinner with some friends and a looooong trip to Canberra
Found 'Jeremiah' with a number of his Mates waiting for a lift to Canberra, let's hope it will be a smooth and painless !operation. Quite the gathering there all those Frogs do get a bit vocal when competing for attention.

Left in Gloria Park, Hazelbrook for a Frog Power Trail.
I was obviously beaten on the day in finding Jeremiah!
Found a couple of spots he could have been hiding in, but no frog...missed the opportunity of meeting this frog this time.

'Jeremiah' was happy to get off the car at this spot. pjmpjm was driving us all back from the ZEAMMAFF event and dropped me and the frogs at Lawson where I was waiting for my train to Lithgow. I used that time to hide my 3 Froggies and do some locationless caches.
Part of the Froggy Honour Guard that can to see me off at my ZEAMMAFF Event!
Great song that he does too!
I was so happy to see more than 50 Frogs & Gnomes show up for the farewell! I logged as many as I could as I wont see them again before the end of the race. Thanks to everyone who came, human, amphibian and Gnome
A great time was had by all and it took over an hour to sort and sign all the caches who Blossom* made sure found a good safe home
Cheers, and see you in 6 months!

Lots and lots and lots of Leapfrogs and gnomes in attendance! It turned out to be a great day for all Leapfrog and Gnome lovers, a great event with great people attending, we all had a ball.
Thanks to Zal for making it all happen!
'Jeremiah' decided he wanted to see the Blue Mountains so he came home with me.

Being on a quick afternoon frog-hunt in the area, I dropped this movable cache in the spot I found the next movable. Much easier, and even if I am slow logging the find/move (which I was not today), there is still a find available for the next searcher, even if the numbers would be confusing for them.
In the corner, BTW, not on the bridge.

The hint had me almost miss this one, as the pole it was beside was not on the end of the concrete. I moved to the Blast Furnace nearby and came back after finding that for a 2nd try.
I then Relocated this frog to the spot I found the next movable.

After a nice Xmas, Jeremiah (who was a bullfrog) decided for a rest under a little bushy tree thing. Well camo'd, but you should spot him.
Picked up a couple of mate for Xmas, but with Family things going on, didn't get a chance to log them. All good. They're with me

I have a bad feeling about this. Unless some inter-state cacher has been here (but ignored everything else) there is a chance that someone has muggled this lot
Left in the usual spot with two mates plus two other movables that were already there.
I must have got here in the nick of time before richary's visit. Left Flora Frog in the other spot but I didn't have a spare for here.
Got a good collection now for a move to Dural tomorrow.

Couldn't find him, but the other frog in the park wasn't the one I was expecting, so I expect I've been beaten to it today.
'Jeremiah' has moved a little bit, just enough to take the place of another frog a bit further down the road.
I found 'Jeremiah' on my walk from Epping to the Parramatta River today after a very disappointing start in Epping, however he was more than happy to do a small jump to the next cache.

Jeremiah was keen to watch a bit of sport so I left him here near the ovals.
Spotted in the hands of Blossom* while we both dropping off some frogs in the city hoping that an interstate cacher would help give them some kms.

As soon as I saw these new frogs, I devised a plan. It involved a rather expensive train fare and a fair bit of "how do I get THERE from up HERE?" but a blossom* will always find a way when there are frogs involved Ribbit And what a cute snail
Welcome to Sydney! Dropped off at the transit lounge. Safe travels!
Finally managed to get my hands on Jeremiah! I will move him on to a new location very soon.
Thanks for the frog Gradem!

Ellenbrook Shopping Center: Under a blackboy (carpark side) ground level covered by orange plastic with a friend.
There are four parks, one on each of the four corners of a crossroad in Busselton. I have dropped a frog in each park. Jeremiah is in Victoria Square and is hiding under a lovely bush beneath its fronds. It is a cool area and he will be very happy here for awhile. Happy travels my little green friend.
Was on my way home after shopping and had to turn around and retrace my path after Mr M saw this was in one of our caches. Surprised his snail companion hasn't been gobbled up by Jeremiah. Nabbed this cute little guy and he, snail and his travelling leaf are going a little bit further south now.

Nabbed this one Yesterday and hopped him south

Mrs Felix was on yet another night shift, so Mr Felix knowing he wasn't allowed to be making any noise got up super early and went on a frog raid. Picked this one up around 6.00am

After a few technical problems with internet access on the trip to Bunbury yesterday I waited to today to drop off the frog instead of leaving it further south.
Sending messages to try and hurry me up isn't helpful. Even if I dropped it yesterday it would not have been logged to this afternoon.
