Think I logged the whole series this morning but can’t be sure till I see smileys on the map. Installed new logs where needed (a few were mouldy), replaced caches that were def missing... one was just a base no lid or log. Got twigs in my hair, drove down a goat track (you know the one), consumed water and fruity chews, found a few on the ground, most were exactly where I thought they’d be Picked a zillion bits of speargrass outa my old runners.

Cool hide and love how the fence goes thru the huge stump A real pleasure to explore this region today

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. Wink

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.

[green]Find #41 of the day and Find # 5532[/green]... Cool

It was Geocaching's 15th Birthday and a few SA Geocacher's had put on the works... How could I not go??? Cool I picked up locus cache and headed up the Highway for a fun filled day of caches and 'the' event... Big Grin

After the event, I decided to head out and clear up some local caches... A fantastic day of caching with an event thrown in... A beautiful time of year with all the trees in colour and everything lush and green... Although it was quite cold today, the pleasant company made it warmer... A great day out as I tagged along with Moneydork & Semik... Big Grin

A bit of a stroll, a bit of a search, made the find, stamped log and replaced again... [8D

My sincerest thanks to Grandeeze for the effort gone into this cache... I have seen many beautiful area's around this fantastic area.. Big Grin

Heading back to Adelaide on Sunday after a lovely weekend in Tanunda, attended a moving Dawn Service at Tanunda also, Lest We Forget.
Finding a few caches on our way back kinda marks the map to show which roads we have taken in the past.
Cheeky kangaroo in the sheep paddock across the road, what an imposter he looked nothing like a sheep, haha.
Thanks Grandeeze for the cache and the stretch of legs along the trip.
Found, signed and replaced safe and sound.
