Description
Hello everyone, my name is Pond-ering Frog and I belong to JMelb of GJMMelb
I have started out next to a pond and like being hidden near ponds if you can but don't worry if you cant!
When you find me you will see that I will always welcome being found!!!!
Please find me, pick me up, log me and then drop me off somewhere new within 2 days as per the rules below :-)
Most of all - have FUN!!
The game commences at 00:00:00 1 December 2011 AEDST and concludes 23:59:59 31 January 2012 AEDST
- The game administrators decision is final
- You can not find and move your own cache during the game period
- Caches must be found and hidden by the same cacher (i.e. no mailing the cache to another cacher to hide)
- There is no limit to the number of times other cachers can find / move the cache provided there are at least two other finds / moves in between
- If a cacher moves your cache overseas and it remains unfound overseas for 1 week or more, the same cacher may move your cache (within the country or to another country) without breaking the "2 moves" rule
- There is no limit to the distance other cachers can move the cache
- Other cachers in the game may find / move your cache, but they must move it on within 2 days

I owe a huge apology here, several house moves and a separation saw me nearly give up caching, and unpacking some boxes I found this fella. I hope he likes the spot.
Cheers Gordo

Is now sleeping with the fishes under the boardwalk
This fells is keeping some bad company - frogs, gnomes and automobiles.
His log is very manky and I have taken the liberty of replacing it. If you want the original (trust me you don't)_ you have until 6am to let know cos that's when the bin is collected

Dropped off today but dont go looking as it has already been picked up.
Found by caughtatwork at 12:29 on 5/01/2013
It's been a while since this guy was found and moved, so we've taken him away and he'll be out very shortly for some new adventures.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks GJMMelb for this cache in the 2011/2012 race. He'll be back out in the next day or so I expect.

I found this cache with caughtatwork today. We brought all the caches home and have logged them into our closest hiding place. caughtatwork has picked them all up already, so there is nothing there to find. It's been a while since this guy was found, so caughtatwork says he'll move them on shortly.
I dropped by here on the way to work to have a look for this one and its nearby GC neighbour. The O3 had me in a likely looking spot, particularly given the hint , but no presented .
So, it was off to the GC cache, which I finally found after a few minutes (although I couldn't retrieve it at the time ). On the way back to the car however, I noticed another possible hidey-spot for this one a few metres south of where the O3 was pointing and sure enough, this time I had the in hand at 09:25.
I've added the coordinates I took but with the overhead coverage, it's all reasonable close anyway.
TNLNSL. Thanks GJMMelb.
PS: The logbook is a bit damp and could do with a press seal cover.

We just had to walk right past you Pond-ering frog, coz we own you so we couldnt grab you, but hey we got your twin!!!! lol
Dropping off 5 frogs picked up yesterday along this lovely trail. Happy hopping little frog.
Moving on a few of my Leapfrog inventory to the nearby wetland area - to join a couple of others who are still there (come on people!)
Finally! Third time lucky I believe! Found after completing the remaining 19 of the Woodlands 100 series I was unable to get last visit, spending the rest of my day mostly grabbing Leapfrogs Will move it along soon (hopefully near a suitable pond).
Grabbed while on frog run down at Seaford. He looks very much like a brother to two of my frogs heckle and jeckle, will move on soon
Well this little Frog is Back in the race.
Sorry for the delay but i have been real busy.
He is sitting on one of my caches that had a couple of DNF's So whilst i di a maintance Check i thought this would be a goo spot for him to sit & ponder & munch on some Mozzies for a while, While he sits & ponders his next move.

I was on my way home after a BBQ birthday lunch in Healsville and decided it was time to find some moveable frogs since I had actually forgotten to put one of my own out It was time to move someone elses.
I arrived at GZ and nobody about, I quickly made the find and discovered there was not 1 but 4 Movable frogs here. I grabbed them all and off I went.
I will move these on while I am caching over the next 2 days.
Thanks to GJMMelb for the hide.

I was out on my usual caching run at lunchtime looking for a nearby GC cache to log and I came across this on the way past. Sooting down the sidestreets I was able to pull up close to gZ and after the muggle and his doggle had left a quick search revealed this 's hiding spot. I signed the log and put him back for the next person to collect. Thanks again for the opportunity to log another

I looked and looked but GPS was all over the place and hint didn't really pinpoint it enough. It could well be there though, seeing as Ben caused similar problems for other cachers but was an easy find for me...
We saw you there next to another froggy but we couldnt take you
Hope you get picked up soon!!!

*FTF* with good mate Darian (MRX02) easy find and one of many for the night..
Reviewing my stats I discovered a few that had very few logged words regarding the journey. I like to write a bit, and hate reading my caches logs with little of the story. This one was found somewhere and dropped somwhere on a day when we moved frogs via Geelong, Queenscliffe, Newport (ish) and ultimately to Kilkunda. Thanks for the cache and the opportunity to take this one along for the journey. This one like the 15 or soo others ended up at either Avalon Airport or up a tree at Kilkunda.. Fun was had, however like all good story's they must come to an end.. thanks for the frog..
