Fun, adventure, travel, history, geology, mental stimulation, social gatherings, support and friendship are just some of the elements of geocaching.

Out and about enjoying the opportunity to grab a few caches, yours being one of those I targeted on my journey today. Thanks ??

Thanks FLIPPER&CO (F=5181 H=178) for placing this cache and adding to our game.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

Hoping the CO could check on this one's availability, or maybe just archive it.

Big look no luck.

Not found by us either. The POR yielded nothing, and a widened search around GZ was also fruitless. Suspect this one has gone missing.

I was here in the dark on 13/7/19 and couldn’t find the cache. I put it down to the dark. Maybe it’s gone?

Wandering around the countryside today as it's the last day with the rental car. Ended up out this way and as we have cleaned the car we are trying to avoid any dusty roads. This means a very big circle but that also gives us some interesting cache finds. tftc

Hmmmm....well it certainly could do with some work - nice series checking out these old structures.

What a fabulous day out...so fabulous that we stamped 98% of the logs as "Fabulous Randoms" (the others we wrote our names).

We completed 3 OTD series, picked up the tribute series to the US iconic trails (ET Highway & Route 66) and stopped to find a number of other random caches including ones with high fav points or interesting D/Ts. Over 160 finds - it was worth the 5am start (to try and beat the heat).

Thanks so much for the cache FLIPPER&CO! [^]
 
01-Nov-18
A decision about a day of caching with Goodlook was orgained in the not so distant past to clean up some caches around swan reach and murray bridge.

A successful with no DNF’s and 165 caches finds, completing 3 on this date (OTD) series and some of the fruit loop with a few trads along the way.

Majority if the log books were stamped with FABULOUS RAMDOMS and 5 or 6 we wrote our individual caching names in.

I collected Alternika from her abode and then drove down and collected mogni from her Easter Weekend digs. Then off to the Golden Arches for Coffee where we met up with AnyMules. [^] All aboard the Morgan Express for hopefully Lunch! (except maybe one of two stops in between. Surprised
After about fifty unscheduled stops to find caches the now spuriously named Morgan Express finally drove off the ferry at our Lunch Spot at about 8.30 p.m. Razz
Being Good Friday it looks like everything has shut up already so we decide to grab some caches, then invaded the servo/deli/cafe/takeaway just as it was closing and manage to get a feed. Gave up our plans of Burra and turned for home instead. Of course we made a few more stops on the way! [:o)]
This was on the way so of course we stopped for another quick find. Smile
Thanks FLIPPER&CO for the placement Big Grin

So its Easter and luckily for me, school holidays too.... So off to the big smoke I go, and of course I catch up some caching friends for a big day of geocaching. I am sure we said we were going to Morgan, but this is on the way....
Joined up with Brisal5, Anymules and Alternika so I knew a fun day was ahead of me.
Thanks for placing this cache and adding to our fun.

Sedan. We have set up camp at the recreation grounds.
Today we headed out to complete the Ausust trail. Nice BBB containers meaning Big Black Buckets.
Trail was all good untill we got to 22nd & then it really bacame only a motorbike track. The terrain rating for 22-31 could be much higher.
Once again we were pestered by march flies. The coordinates were excellent & some containers could be spottrd from 25m aaway.
Thanks for placing this cache FLIPPER&CO

We were on our way home after visiting Swan Reach today, and it was time to grab a few more Renovation caches on the way. We are doing this series in complete reverse order, having found the final bonus cache years before finding any of the traditionals in the set.

This was the eighteenth of twenty-three finds for the day, and was all becoming a bit of a blur for us. We'd be totally hopeless at logging something meaningful if we ever attempted one of those power trail or geo-art jokes.

Thanks FLIPPER&CO.
 
Found by The Boofs TFTC .

After camping the night in the Murray River NP, and collecting some smileys at Katarapko... we were originally planning on heading straight home to catch up on things after our recent Arkaroola trip Though it seems we got a little distracted by finding some more caches on our way home, lol TFTC!!

Thoroughly enjoying a few days in the area before the Mega officially starts, despite the intermittent rain. Took this one day out of seeing the area via caching to do a numbers run along the power trails. We joined up with Albida 33 and Sol de Lune, and generally signed the logs as W.A.S. We found all that we sought, and called it a day at 200 and then went to the Mega site to set up camp.

Lots of effort in laying and maintaining this PT. The only downside was the prevalence of weeds and seeds, that sadly cachers are helping spread.

Thanks FLIPPER&CO for the series.
 
03-Feb-16
9977 and 129th of 163 found today.

Many apologies for the generic logs but if I don't do this they won't be logged for ages and will be no better than generic anyway.

Found while making our way to Monash for a couple of night after 4 nights on Yorke Peninsula. Of course this was via Murray Bridge which is the only way a committed (should be) cacher would go isn't it?

Thanks for the cache FLIPPER&CO and your efforts.

Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega

Camped currently at Big Bend, with a beautiful day forecast we had dragged out the inflatable 2man boat and pumped her up. With that little adventure under our belt it was off to see what else was out int he big wide world.

Great afternoon caching and we found far more caches than we had anticipated. [^]

We got back to the caravan after dark.

Thanks for helping us explore the local area. Razz

This was a great series we picked up on our way back to the Riverland from the Barossa. Turned into an epic journey as we got through most of the series before realizing we had to turn around to get some we missed. Ended up taking the long way home - The VERY long way Wink TFTC!

[Orange]Out with locus cache for a day of caching with her awesome muggle partner for a leisurely day caching. No targets to meet, no races to complete, just one foot in front of the other in our own time. The day started early and finished late and was thoroughly enjoyable.

Our final cache in this series for the day, and I'm sure I must be getting close to grabbing them all.

This was find number 19 of 28 for the evening for me. TFTC FLIPPER&CO![/Orange]
 
10-May-14
Muggle partner had volunteered through the week to come caching one day this weekend, so today was the day! Big Grin
Accompanied by the ever patient RideThe GeoWalrus, we set out on an adventure whose boundaries were set by the desire to do maintenance on two caches and to claim one multi that I had DNFd recently.
A wonderfully fun day out where I managed 21 smileys, we did quite a few lovely multis from start to finish and had some great walks in some great bush areas Cool

Eventually, I will have found all of this series but at elast I have found some more tonight!
Love these old places and imaging how they were years ago! [^]

Camped at Black Hill reserve, in a very quite spot.
Some rain today, but we still managed to find a few caches in our travels, around the area.
We visited some amazing places, and saw some beautiful sites, as we drove along a section
of the Murray River. This cache was found quickly, and in good condition.
Many thanks for the hunt today, FLIPPER&CO.

# 5443. Robmc and I are in SA to tackle a few of the many Series and others along the way. We have now been joined by pprass to join in the adventures.

This morning we have done the Fruit Loop Series and now we are finding several more as we wend our way back to Waikerie.

Love old buildings, and especially the old stone ruins and not so ruined buildings that dot the South Australian landscape and yes, I would love to renovate some of these treasures. Only got to find a few of these today but hopefully we will collect them all over time.

Thanks FLIPPER&CO
 
12-Dec-13
A busy day with BettyBoo3747 and half of Pprass. In the morning we tackled the Fruit Loop series, and then we filled in the afternoon with caches on the way back to Waikerie.
This was our last bit of renovation for the day (we were going in the wrong direction). The smallest building and the smallest cache container.
Thanks for this sample of the series, we will be back.
Thanks, Robmc.
