Near Nicks #3 Robertstown, South Australia, Australia
By farmer--brown on 14-Aug-10. Waypoint GC2DGDF

Long time since this one was last visited. Quick find. TFTC

A quick find with the family (Tom, Emma, and Pat) as we caught up for Christmas/New Years. A quick grab and go, TFTC.

Another quick find, nice area even though its a bit warm today. TFTC farmer brown and postITgirl10.

Decided to do a day trip to Morgan, Mt Mary and Bower area for a day’s caching which included the Tour Down Under series. Manage to get 55 for the day which is a personal best. Had a fantastic day looking around. All caches were in good condition unless mentioned otherwise. TFTC

Country caching day out in Woop Woop

TFTC

Replaced the mouldy log paper

Nice easy find, TFTC

Another sopping wet log and contents. Needs replacing.

A Sunday drive with the Muggle Wife up north of Kapunda and surrounds. Her interest was the wildlife and stopping at sacred sites and other points of interest to read plaques and enjoy the scenery. Mr Adder also admired the abundance of accompaniments to roast potatoes and gravy.

All caches were in good condition unless noted otherwise.

An easy enough find but the contents were soaked and the logbook wet and mouldy. This one needs some TLC.

Thank you for the cache farmer--brown Find Number 9848 on 10/07/2022

After a freezing night we headed out early with iluvtrekking to explore the surrounding rural areas - our kind of caching. Awkward spot to park but stunning views. Thanks farmer-brown

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
It was a freezing morning in the Barossa but the sun is shining and the day is warming up nicely, perfect for caching. TFTC.

Found with the jams crew on our way to Clare for the JLWE. TFTC

The JAMS team (( JJ52, Allister W, Mogni, and sir_spectre ) plus TallBikeStan for this trip ) are headed off to the 20 th JuneLongWeekend Event in Clare. As you would expect extension poles, blow up kayaks, waders and ladders are in the car. I am sure every one else takes 11 hours to reach Clare from Adelaide, i am also sure via Burra is the logical to Clare . There was many photos taken of the fun times we had, even involving a ladder in the creek and of course many dirt roads ventured down. All caches for the weekend where stamped as JAMS and some more caches where placed on our travels. The missing JAMS member Michells&hound joined us in our B&B in Clare but didn't join with us for the JLWE game. The weather slowly got better over the weekend. It's good to see some gadget and creative caches around Clare that are permeant and not temp game caches.

Found out on Geo day as jams

Today we enjoyed caching along the Worlds End Highway through Robertstown and into the Worlds End Gorge. After completing those caches we then continued to Burra to do the Lab cache and a couple of multis that have been published since we were there last.

Many thanks for the hide farmer--brown

Visited the farm today to pick up a few of farmer browns caches. TFTC

Eudunda trip with the geo-pup, day 4, Eudunda to Robertstown

Drive the Chevy to the dam, but the dam was dry...

TFTC

Today I headed north for a day of caching around Eudunda. It was a perla of a day for caching perfect temperature, blue skies and it was good to be alive.
Found around 50 caches for the day. Saw loads of sleepy lizards tying to cross the roads.
Lovely area will be back soon for more. So many caches to find so little time.
Quick find TFTC log book wet and container had seen better days could do with some maintenance

3rd Find

Easy find cache was not hidden to well

I did not make it to the early morning CITO but a spur of the moment decision had me meeting up with gridge98 at Mawson Lakes to head up to Eudunda to find some out of the way caches that we both had not found. I left home at 7:30am and returned at 8:30pm after a big day with 49 finds. We did a big loop finishing in Kapunda and I think this was a record for me with the number of multis found in a day.

A quick find here as we completed a few in this series.

Thanks for the cache farmer--brown.

Very damp! A quick detour out to this one today csche was easily found but hopefully the current weather will dry this one out

After an early morning CITO on Anstey Hill, I met up with JJ52 to go caching for the day. With not much of a plan other than to cache around Eudunda for the day. We went from cache to cache finding 49 caches for the day and ending up in Kapunda after a big loop. A lot of middle of no where/back roads with 2 brown snakes spotted on our journey.

Thanks for the cache

URGENT maintenance needed. Everything is soaking wet.
Managed our log on the wet paper.
Cheers

Found on our way northwards to camp out at Redbanks, near Burra for a few nights. We found Near Nicks #1 to #3 but came across a farmer on foot droving his sheep along the road on our way to #4. Didn't want to mess up the operation so we headed off down a side-road. Will have to come back another day to search for Near Nicks #4. Thanks for the cache farmer--brown!

Found it

No water in the dam

Nice dry dirt roads in mid-summer. TFTC farmer--brown.

Another day, another cache with Purrfect Di and Jack.

Yet another Puzzled Puzzler's Tuesday caching adventure. Oh dear..we are a little light on for crew today. Just me and Mrs. SA Sewer rats. Never mind..we have a plan to find some unloved caches and get Rat qualified for an unloved challenge we want to do later in year. [8)]
The target caches were all up above Robertstown, so of course we took the long way, detouring to some unfound caches along a circuitous route.
And wouldn't you know it we soon had this in hand as well.

**Thanks farmer--brown for this cache. **

Brisal5 and Mrs SA Sewer Rat set on a lovely sunny day of caching.
WE had to targets for the day.
One was to get Mrs Rat to Qualify for Unloved cache Challenge in Victoria.
The second was to get her to the 28 caches to get her last Hidden Creature.
By end of the day Mrs rat was 4 short for Hidden Creature, and qualified for the VIC challenge.
nick is proving elusive, another quick cache find. Tftc

No wzter in the dam

After attending a family reunion in Eudunda we had some time up our sleeves to explore the area and collect some smilies along the way, enjoyed our country drive

A couple of days out from the SA Mega and I was on a run around the area grabbing a few caches. No real problems with any of them and the ones I attempted were in good shape. I think I will need another week to make any sort of dent in the numbers around here though......

Thanks for this one......

A quick find on a strange route between Claire and Berri.

Spring is sprung, the grass is ris: I wonder where the caches is?
Out with firesafe and honeysucker on a lovely spring day for a day's adventure while we searched for caches
They found some, I found some and I lost track of how many times we managed to locus cache
As we did this series, I had the story of Nick explained to me. RIP Nick.

Quick find with Aussie M&M, Mogni and Team 707!!

The log was a bit damp but it will soon dry out here with some clear skies.

Enjoyed myself drived the car along to # 1-5. Signed the log. Thanks Farmer-brown.

I have gotten used to seeing dams with water in them since our unusual summer, and was surprised to see the one near the cache was dry.
The cache was an easy find and I simply signed the log, making no swaps. Cheers.

The log book was damp in this one. Another find on our Easter weekend.
Thanks again

Damn lucky to find this one as we searched longer than usual in too many wrong spots. Thanks

Took a little while to find this one
TFTC farmer--brown
