Meandering thru the Barossa with the Waldos, picking up some random caches. TFTC. Logged as L&W.
Attended an event today, so thought I would stop off and capture a few caches on the way home with geo pup Douglas TYFTC
When i saw this tree on my way south headed back towards Adelaide, it just screamed at me: "Cache Hide Within" so i investigated after loading the cache site and noticed there was.
Couldn't locate the cache but did notice an early 80's Skim milk carton
Back to the GeoMobile to check for hints but before i started i just remembered a certain hide in the past and back i went and spotted it straight away [Funny how that happens

Cache found and log signed at 12:07 on Thu 5 Nov 2020.

After spending a very peaceful and quiet night camping on our own at Towitta, we were on the road again today, caching with ilook4geo. This was a very easy cache to find and both lots of initials were soon registered on the log. Time then to return everything to its place and continue with the hunt. Thanks go to Grandeeze (Mrs) for placing this cache.
Picking up a few caches today while heading towards Nuriootpa with goingplaces2. We found a variety of containers and hides. All logs were signed and replaced as found. It was a fun and successful day. This was one of the caches we enjoyed finding. TFTC.
After spending a few days in the Barossa we headed for Hahndorf before flying home on Thursday. Mr s found this one under the watchful eyes of the four legged muggles across the road. The misty rain has stopped for now. Took the TB that was here.
Thanks Grandeeze (Mrs) and greetings from New Zealand.

Couldn't park much closer to this one.
Thank you for maintaining this cache Tomcats.

Catching up with some late logs.
Heading down from Cameron Corner slowly making my way south I found so many caches in Orroroo that I decided to camp the night and grab some more before I left this morning.
That completed I was again heading south.
What an interesting piece of history. Looks like the Angas family did quite a lot for SA not just making money for them selves. I am glad Ronald Angas bequeathed Collingrove to the National trust as now some of our early history has been preserved.
Quite on interesting mix with the old and newer buildings.
The cache turned into a nice quick find and the log book now contains our name.
Many thanks Grandeeze (Mrs) for getting us to stop here.

We are nomads. Having left Perth WA in February 2014 we now live in our caravan and go wherever the will or caches take us.
Now visiting in Tanunda, today we set about exploring the area using Geocaching as our guide.
With a late start it was midday before we finally set off. Sun shining 18degrees but alas by the time we made our return it was drizzling for our last few finds.
We were also running out of petrol with the orange light on but we kept going for just 1 more. Lol. All caches were found in good condition making it a very enjoyable day out caching.

Nicely hidden! I poked around all the leaf litter, and human litter, before I stood back and scratched my head. Where could it be? I took a second look, on a slightly different aspect, and the was the cache right in front of me.
I had a horse come over and allow me to stroke its head before we left.
Thanks SnappyTomCats.

7232 Located by baby&Mrs gopher in company with Team Ladava on our wander around the valley at 1440. We pulled up behind another vehicle that had the same idea as us to make the find. The girls were a little nervous to start but after a bit of ribbing and some joking all went well. Hope we were able to help with some tricks to locating the container. Great to catch up. SL Tnx Grandeeze (Mrs)

Not quite where our coordinates put it but not a massive leap to guess where it was. Tftc.
Unfortunately don't have the time to explore the area more. Thanks so much for the cache and bringing us here.
Just a few after work...
Visited the homestead once, a long time back.

On a day trip to see the surrounding towns of Mt. Pleasant and we decided to make it a caching day that also took us around the local wineries with a lot of smileys and couple unhappy icons
Owl and SA Sewer rats were out on an adventure. Owl took a fortuitous wrong turn and managed to collect a couple of extra smilies. This was one of them. Now she wants to come back when it is open for a proper visit.
Another good find while holidaying in the area.
Many thanks for setting this one up [^]

A quick easy find, loved the tree 
awesome spot, spotted something else at GZ a couple of random milk cartons, would normally done a CITO on them but they looked like they had been there a long time, can't say I've seen packaging like that for many many years

One of the_xtrailers and I headed to Nuriootpa for the day to collect some badges and geo-supplies. Of course some cache hunting was a must too. We were heading home now.
What a magnificent tree and a great place to be protected from the chilly wind while signing the log. TFTC Grandeeze.

Geo friend Hevwalker12 wanted to go out and visit Geocaching supplt store out as Nuriootpa. I was invited along for company and to collect some caches for the day. Total collection of 24 for the day. This was only limited as we had to be back in the Adelaide hills by 3pm to pick up geo Daughters.
We left Angaston later than we were hoping, but that still didn't stop us find some easy drive by's on the way home. This was a fairly easy find

**this is a late log** I have recently made a major upgrade to my GSAK license and found this lovely feature that automatically tells me what caches I have marked found in GSAK but never logged on geocaching.com!! Yay, Clyde, you can have my money anytime! The caches I am logging in this batch were ones I found on a random day meeting Moneydork out near Sedan for a series that went offline sadly before I got to log it (adults behaving badly). Thanks to Hurtle for flagging one of these where he noticed my name in Moneydork's log but that I hadn't logged it -- this enabled me to locate the other non-defunct-series caches we found that day to go into my stats. In an interest to get completely caught up, I am logging my past finds in bulk. I still have work to do after this, as I need to locate my notes from all of my earthcaches, but once those are in, I should be very close to current. I appreciate all the effort you go through to create and place your hides and do not for one second take it for granted, I just need to get caught up so I can return to my once pleasant logs. Cheers!
I arranged to meet SEMIK in Cambrai in order to complete the BM series together.
We then travelled back to Adelaide via the Barossa and completed this cache on our way.
I apologise for the generic log.
Thanks for the cache hide Grandeeze

A quick find on our way from Mannum to Clare on our three week caching holiday on the big island. Great spot for a cache. TFTC
Another quick find. I like these types of drivebys when it is wet. Back in the car before you get wet. TFTC Grandeeze
Found on the way out of the Valley this morning. A lovely tree here and a good hide thanks Grandeeze (Mrs).
TFTC. Found on a slightly miserable day (drizzling rain) with imnotlostimexploring (my brother). Had a great day caching out near Sedan and Moculta. Thanks for bringing me out here.
