Heavenly Orbs Lameroo, South Australia, Australia
By Freddo and Friends on 22-Apr-08. Waypoint GC1BKGZ

No luck with this one today ??

Time to go.

Found SPOR and broken fragments of plastic container, but didn't have anything to replace it (if that was it?)

Too much grass

T1 of Team TiddlyPop is getting good at this. Easy find. Watch for snakes. TFTC.

Do guys ever stop talking about their ...!?

A night in Lameroo with Hellyonfire had us grabbing some caches before setting up camp.
We were certainly impressed with the size of the nearby orbs. TFTC

Out for a camping weekend with geosister H423L and geodog Tonka
Made our way to this one after wondering what orbs were. Well there pretty big orbs. No idea what they are
Cache in hand

Nice easy find. TFTC

This weekend, I visited Bordertown for the community celebration event. During the morning, it was a trip to Ngarkat Conservation Park, before joining everyone at the event while it bucketed it down with rain. The afternoon was spent visiting Wolseley and Mundulla. The following day, it was a trip north up the SA border to Pinnaroo, and an exploration of the vicinity via Mootatunga, Karte, Billiatt, and Lameroo. A return home via the highway allowed stops in Geranium, Jabuk, Peake, Sherlock, and Moorlands, arriving home well after dark.

Today, I headed out solo north of Bordertown to Pinnaroo via Senior and Ngarkat. A longer journey that I had anticipated. I decided to keep heading north along the Browns Well Highway, and find some of the out of the way geocaches in the vicinity through the back roads, including visiting Mootatunga, Karte, and Billiatt. I found the civilisation at Lameroo a welcome change, before continuing my westwards drive home. My final stop was at Sherlock completing *the Great Detective Series*, taking two hours all up I looped around those geocaches as it went dark.

Unfortunately during my initial search spending 10 min looking, and like the others before me, I couldn’t find this cache. There were a lot of clovers about, and I did find a SPOR, but no cache. I also found another wombat burrow and SPOR nearby, but no cache there either. There were plenty of cigarette boxes in plastic bags very close to GZ, so possibly that may be the reason for this location to be compromised? A muggle enjoying their cigarettes here whilst admiring the heavenly orbs?

I had already logged a DNF, and during my walk out, I made a PAF to the CO. I forgot that Lameroo wasn't on the way back from Bordertown, and during our conversation, it sounded like the cache should have been in the initial SPOR, but had disappeared. Subsequently, the CO provided permission to replace the cache on their behalf, and so whilst back at my car, I found a small painted black sistema container to return back to GZ with. The cache was hidden as per the hint, so hoping this one can now survive. Thanks Freddo and Friends for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Little bit tricky today. Lots of clover about.

No luck today

Bit of a bush wanderCheers & tftc

Cleaning the cache map, one day at a time...
Out and about with Sebastbat and Jack.
Nice orbs. Previous log marvelled at how CO used a notepad! We were just impressed it wasn't a mint tin
One must always look after one's orbs. Keeping them up there makes sure they are cool too.
We did wonder if the M.I.B had anything to do with this town...
tftc Freddo

.

It was few meters off but amazing hiding spot and was a bit difficult to find it loved how you used a note pad !!

Decided to stay in town until I got them all. Tftc

We camped in town overnight at the campground, and went exploring around town.
We came across this interesting pair of water towers.
We found your cache tucked away nicely and with signing duties done and dusted we replaced the cache as found.
TFTC

Yes

It was tricky to find

After big caching long weekend in Canberra, I was on the return trip to Adelaide picking up a couple of caches along the way.

I needed a break to revive so I stopped here to stretch the legs.

Now that is a big pair!

Thanks for the cache.

It was a glorious Autumn Day and so Anymules and I decided it was time to make the trip through Ngarkat Conservation Park to collect the caches there and in the towns surrounding it. Except for a couple of campers at Buck's we had the whole park to ourselves and didn't see another vehicle! [^]

It was a quick find of a typical Freddo cache. It was out in the open and not actually near where the GPS said it should be. So we stamped the book and took it back to where the GPS said it should be and there we found another cache. Okay, the names and dates match this cache so we left the one with the most names! [8)] I refuse to enter into the sky balls debate. [:X]

**Thanks Freddo for this cache. **

We found two caches here (one dated April by Malco, and the other with older logs). We removed the smaller and less logged container.

Guess the two caches matches the two sky testicles.

Thanks for the cache Freddo.

Heavenly Orbs is some kind of phallic symbol, apparantly. You have a dirty mind, Freddo but I like you .

A huge weekend of geocaching with sir_spectre. We were targetted a couple of events on the Border Track and I had a ball. Still feeling shaken more than stirred but highly recommend coming out to do the track with a great group of people. Of course on the way there and the way back managed to grab a few others too. This was one of the specially selected ones.
Thanks to Freddo from mogni

found with mogni on route to Pinnaroo tonight then down the border track tomorrow. quick find in the dark.

Found, the third cache for today. Tftc

Quick find after doing a few caches around the roads TFTC

Road trip to St Arnaud with clare007 & a friend. The day got hotter as we travelled towards the border but did not deter us from our mission...
A nice big pair of balls...
TFTC Freddo

21:13 ah... was hoping for a slightly larger container. Guess the nearby ones in the air will have to suffice...
Log dry, has space, but no pen/cil as there's not really room.

Found fairly easily.

Cheers

Yay! With this one so easy to find, it makes the DNFs here seem like they were actually AWOL.

Was our first catch! Very excited!

Heading in the general direction of home today, but had plenty of time to cache on the way [^].
This place is obviously a bit of a hangout for some mates, lots of collected stuff arranged as a cubby house or camp .
Looked around for quite awhile, eventually finding the remains of the (original)? cache (couldn't find the replacement/red container) . Went back to the vehicle and found an eclipse mint tin and bag, so added a temporary log sheet and hid this under a rock with the original contents .
Hopefully, this will be safe. TNLNSL.
Thanks Freddo and Friends, for getting us to stop and observe something a bit higher than normal .

We found a cache here (distinctive colour, so lines up with previous logs), but it was lying without camo (nor with any identifying features within - only a logbook, recently replaced so only one previous log) at the base of a tree. We tried to hide it a little better when we left. I felt this was particularly important considering that it looked as if someone had made a camouflaged camp close by and there was lots of stuff that shouldn't have been in the bush. If someone was asked to remove the "camp" & clean up, I fear that the cache could be "cleaned up" too.
TFTC!

Day eight of myself and MrSmith00's 2nd annual geocaching trip from Sydney to Adelaide, culminating in the day/night ashes 2nd test.
Along for his inaugural journey was Skonos, whom we are attempting to infect with the geocaching bug.

Log signed as GOGGGG - The group of glorious, geocaching, gamer geeks.

Day one saw us drive Sydney to Hay collecting 37 caches on the way.
Day two was Hay to Renmark for 29 finds.
Day three took us from Renmark to Adelaide with 20 finds.
Days 4, 5, 6 & 7 in Adelaide yielded 14 finds, two days of cricket, a tasting tour of both the Barossa & McLaren Vale and a new convert to geocaching - Knappstien.

Find 41 for the day.

We had to add some new log paper.

Tftc.

Azzepious and I went on our second annual trip to Adelaide for caching and cricket. Joining us was muggle Skonos who refused to make a geocaching account but did help on finding caches. Day 9 of our trip had us going from Adelaide to Balranald. There are a fair few power trails along here, maybe for another time...

All caches logged as Team G.O.G.G.G.G (Team of Glorious Geocaching Gamer Geeks)

Found it. Log needs replacing.

Found it

Thanks we found it but no Log to sign sorry It's in a red container

Needs a new Log

TheCatBandit family out and about on a family adventure today to this beautiful little town have had a ball exploring today. Found cache after a short walk, there was no TB inside. TFTC Freddo

So its been awhile since I have started up my GPS and looked at what I have found. To my surprise I have so much logging to do, and from so long ago. So I have had to put a generic log together as I have no clue what happened this long ago.

Apologies in advance for the generic log, But life has taken a few different paths over the last 2 years now I have to play catch up.

Know one thing, these days I hand pick all the caches I do and well I hand picked this one so its a good thing. Generic log or not

Thanks for the cache Freddo

Found with Grumpi68 as we parked and then trekked in from the north .. OK, so it was a short trek. Have always been a fan of 'heavenly orbs' and these were a couple of beauties! Thanks Freddo.

F(H)ound It! #1401 - @12:18:58 PM

On our way back to Queanbeyan after a few days in Adelaide. We have two dogs in the car so we are making regular stops...and that means grabbing a cache while we stretch our (12 x) legs. A not too long walk around to GZ.

The Ridgeo-pup is not nuts about chasing balls but she does believe in calling a spayed a spayed Thanks for the cache, Freddo

Ridgeo-pup pic attached:

Our holiday has nearly ended but stopping for caches prolongs the pain of going back to reality
TFTC

Found It!
Milang also has a set of orbs. Apparently Meningie does to. Lameroo's orbs are difficult to access legally. The northern approach is the right one. A quick find while admiring the orbs. Lameroo's orbs have good phone reception.
TFTC

Well as I was working at the Hospital I just had to do this one but couldn't work out if I should do it Front On or to Enter from the Rear. I decided a Rear Entry was easier and saw it before I arrived but covered it better when retreating out of the Hide. TFTC

Easy find, when one finds how to approach this. TFTC Freddo.

Today I joined CPwanderer and clare007 for a caching trip east.
Even though he had already found this cache, CP was happy to stop for Clare and I to add it to our finds for the day.
TNLNSL TFTC Freddo!

Out with CPWanderer & Gizmos Gang caching our way to Murrayville, (Victoria)
It was getting quite hot now, so reading the description and hint on the way.
Not sure about the hint, but an interesting spot & lovely patch of vegetation.
Thanks for bringing us here Freddo

found the day after attending a wedding,tftc

I got the heavenly part but the hint I lost in translation ?. You'll have to explain it to me the next time we meet,tftc anyway.

Thankfully didn't walk through any orb webs looking for this one

Found enroute to shepparton for a tennis tourny. Found with BLT Burger. Tftc

Quick easy find. Tftc

Haha! I had a good chuckle on this one. Nice to get out for a stroll and find some geocaches in the area. I'm visiting from Phoenix Arizona!

Nice quick find!

Found with MehZz while Maesy waited in the car. That'll teach her for not wearing appropriate footwear. Tftf.

Had to come from the north to get this cache.

A cooler day between some warmer days called for a geocaching expedition! I realised three caches were yet to be found in Lameroo (we won't mention I missed one 10 minutes from home), so a route was plotted. I also found there to be a new cache deep in Victoria that required my "finding" - thus beginning a 2-day trek of 67 finds, 23 kangaroos, and a load of fun!

Found it tftc

Together with Willem-Jan on our trip to Austalia from Sydney to Melbourne - Tasmania - Adelaide - Canberra - Sydney.

Together with Spade52 I traveled for almost 6 weeks through Down Under Australia. We made our trip, using a Spaceship rental car, visiting the 5 most southern states of Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia and Australia Capital Territory. Spade52 was the navigator and I the driver. We mostly avoided the motorways and mainly used the coastal and local roads that led us through many small nice and rustic villages and sleeping towns. We stayed in motels, backpacker hostels and occasionally a campsite. Luckily the weather was very agreeable during our trip with nice temperatures and very little rain. We especially enjoyed the nature, the rain forest, the wilderness, the (for us) extraordinary indigenous flora and Australia's wildlife. On our trip we visited many geocaches. All CO's thanks for showing us many interesting locations and special spots.
Today we were leaving Adelaide again in order to travel to Canberra and Sydney. We will take the highway to Hay and Wagga Wagga. We visited some interesting places on the road and tried to find some more geocaches. This geocache was easy to find. Very nice hide at a quiet location.

Easy find on a beautiful day. TFTC

Day 3.4 of my 2100+Km 4.4 day road trip.

Visiting Woodlands Heritage Park, Ocean Grove, Warrnambool, Naracoorte, Keith, Ouyen, Lake Boga, Ballarat and just about every town in between. (Not necessarily in that order)

This was one of the caches I found on my travels.

It was another great day for caching, with the first signs of summer in spring. (Bring it on.)

After staying in Ouyen over night, it was a new day and also there were caches to be found.

I soon had the cache in hand and the log was duly signed.

'Scrat' visited your cache whilst on his Great Aussie Adventure.

TFTC Freddo

Mm, interesting. Thanks Freddo.

An event hosted by my friends, muff1, had me wondering if I could make a day of it and go and see them[?]
When I mentioned this to sushilord he surprised me by agreeing that a day out might be fun.
So we drove the long way around (about 1100 km) to get to the event and all up managed to find 27 caches and attend the event
A very relaxing day filled with great scenery, lots of laughs, some interesting historical sites and a great big, yummy hamburger and chips for tea at the Kaniva Roadhouse [^].

Heavenly Orbs...really[?]
I didn't see the orbs until we had found the cache and I looked up....then I even asked what about that other, taller object
So glad that I didn't read the cache description until now while I am logging or the conversation would have taken a definite downward spiral for the day .....similar to when a cache is ejected from a hole in a tree

TNLN. SL. TFTC Freddo

Easy find. The colour helped.

GREAT OCEAN ROAD TRIP, with Emma and Kate

Great ocean road trip

Found it

Took a while but found it eventually

Day 1 of our roadtrip from Adelaide to Stanthorpe for the Qld Mega. Gorgeous day, sun is shinning, perfect traveling weather.
Easy find, Mr 3LG thinks they look like gigantic tic tacs

This reminded us of The Orb down the coast but a 2 for 1 deal. After a quick find, back into the geovan and continuing on towards OZ Mega

TFTC

A nice area to visit and was fun to collect a few caches from the area. Tftcsl

One orb, two orbs. A duo of orbs, a pair of orbs. We found them all! Great to get up so close and personal with the orbs!

Thanks Freddo for the cache.

A lovely stroll though the bush to find this one. TFTC

Hard to fine

Cruisy find

Found it!!!!

Found

Thanks

Thanks

Watch out for the attacking sticks. A cut to the leg.

We could see where we had to be but how to get there........once we worked out where to go it was an easy find. TFTC

After eleven immensely enjoyable days in South Australia, we are headed towards home, via a couple of Events in Central Victoria. Talk about finding the back way in - the road was closed due to resealing. The flagman told us our turn put us on a one way road - well we were only going one way! After finding a parking spot and a short walk the cache was in hand.

TNLN .. . . . SL . . Thanks to Freddo for the hunt.

ACTchil and I were travelling back from the fantastic OZ Mega Event 2014 in Murray Bridge and thought we would grab the few caches we didn't get on the way and this was one of them. I liked this little town and enjoyed driving around it finding the 4 we hadn't got on our way down. tftc
