The area is now to open for a simple hide, time to go.

Did not find think it's gone missing

Couldn't find we think its been moved

So we were all set to fly to Dayboro for the Queensland Mega this weekend. There hadn't been a case in Qld for a quite a few weeks before we decided to book in early Feb. What are the chances of a case causing a lockdown and closing the border we thought..So when it all did happen just 4 days before we where due to leave, we were royally peed off. So we had to cancel and find somewhere else to spend Easter. Pt Broughton was a last minute choice. Today we pulled up stumps and headed to White Cliffs campground to join friends for Easter Sunday/Monday. After setting up camp we headed back into town with Chrispy89, travellinbees and Michelle. Looked around GZ and even phoned a friend (who had recentley replaced) to confirm we where looking in the right spot. Definately missing, so needs some Owner TLC or archiving/moving if its going to keep going missing. Bloody muggle kids!

Koolunga is a great little town.

hello

Read lots of books

Gridge98 asked if I wanted to go caching[?] and that word 'caching' deserved a yes[^]
There was an event at Clare at 4pm which was the goal for the day[^] anything else was just a bonus
38 cache smilies: 36 caches found , 1 cool event attended and 1 cache beta tested[^]

At GZ and looked and looked: no cache
Rang CO and with permission[^], painted up and replaced a new eclipse tin
Love old towns and their history

Replaced for CO after a short phone call

This at locus cache and I headed now towards Clare and beyond to find a few caches and with our main focus later in the day at Clare for a coffee event, such a great day weather wise, came away with 52 finds.

Thanks for the cache

As Per the previous logs - looks like this one is gone.
Koolunga is still kool though.

Couldn't find it.

Sign now screwed to the tree , no place for the cache, had a good search, but no luck,

With some further research on Google Earth, I see that the sign was mounted on a piece of channel and I guess the cache was in there, no where to hide the cache now,

TFTC a beautiful drive around this area

Bit tricky as sign no longer standing and cache had been poked way down. Used a stick to push it out. Be aware that if library sign disappears so will the cache. Thanks

TFTC nice find quick drive by on our way to redhill

TFTC A quick drive by on this glorious day. Log was signed, dated & returned to its hiding spot

You just have to watch out for all the muggles,
if like me you are here in the middle of the day [:o]

I think I saw one muggle,
but he disappeared into the pub.
You can never be too careful though !! [:o]

In a likely spot the cache was soon in paw

A bit of a detour off the highway to find this one. The CBD was very quiet today...

We arrived around 3pm with the plan of finding each cache in town, but then we went to the pub!! Lol! Tftc

We took a stroll and ended up at the pub!!! Oh dear' Ben, son of Connie, helped us retrieving the cache. Tftc

Found this one after a fantastic meal at the pub here. Love these old character pubs which haven't turned yuppie and charge 20 dollars for a lettuce leaf. A quick find as there weren't too many places it could be. TNLN. Cheers.

Went for a ride yesterday so replaced lost container.

This was a challenge, as there were people loading a vehicle adjacent to GZ [8)].
Waited for awhile before a quick search and retreive [8]. TNLNSL.
Thanks for one more Tk2.

A quick find on our way to Port Augusta. TFTC Tk2

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia.

Staying in a 'Free Camp' we werent sure what the weather was going to hold for today. Turned out quite magical, with grey thunder clouds overhead but sunshine still shining through.

We visited the towns of Merriton, Redhill, Koolunga, Yacka and Gulnare also Threadgold's Crossing. A busy day and lots of fun exploring, but with sadly 4 DNF's.

Thanks for helping us tour this region by visiting your cache Tk2

The sun was going down and the shops were closed when 3LG and myself located this cache.
A clean and quiet town.
Took trackables to visit.
TFTC

Very quiet here which made for a quick find, i love the hose across the road, that is really nice. TFTC

Time to cache again after the hot spell of summer! Goingtheredoingthat, KarpyKarpyson and myself embarked on another short expedition to retrieve lost treasure on a lovely Saturday morning/afternoon. I think we collected 22 smiles all round. Liked the location on this one!

Found while on a Saturday morning caching trip with Limbage and Karpykarpson. Find number 9 of 22 for me.
Another cache in the book.
TFTC

found in the company of goingtheredoingthat and limbage on a satday caching expedition which included Koolunga and Redhill... t f t c .

A nice quick find.
Thanks Tk2

A quiet Saturday morning in town today - we didn't see a soul! Easily spotted cache signed log and on our way.

found on the way home after a weekend in clare c/park thanks

Following a 4WD Club event at Melrose and driving out via the Bridle Track, it was time to head inland and grab a few caches on the way home.

There was a kid on his scooter nearby and he saw me and said that I must be a geocacher and it was a quick find after that. TFTC.

After having a great nights bush camp at White cliffs and a few drinks around the fire we got off to a leisurely start still heading north towards Whyalla to attend the Munaryoo 4wd event tomorrow picking up some caches as we went. We pulled up here in what seemed to be a very sleepy little town apart from one elderly lady walking down the street there wasn't another soul to be seen anywhere. While waiting for the lady to pass by we were able to have a good look at the fantastic looking institute building nearby. Once she had turned the corner and gone we located the cache quickly but it was a few minutes longer before we were signing the log.
Thanks TK2 for the cache.

Seen this one from the car.
TFTC

Nice quick find and sign after taking a "dummy photo" as a muggle kid walked by.

Nice little town and cache
TNLNSL Thanks fir he cache

I nearly died.[xx(][xx(]

1000 birds alighted from the tree as I walked under it in the darkness.

One moment deathly silence.

The next 1000 screeches. Oh crap. What did I do.

I didn't score a bird poo so all was good. Think I'll buy a power ball.

Thanks to Tk2 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

Quick find after dropping geokids off for school. TFTC.

A great 'urban' feature. TFTC

Nice easy find by Hello Mrs as we rushed through town. Cheers Gav [11621]

My honour. Had no books to exchange. TFTC

Great location. I have never stopped to look around before. Beautiful town.

Found as a part of TheKellyGang, writing this as a genaric log as I was a part of TheKellyGang and am now out on my own.
If you do not agree with this you are more than welcome to delete the log.

Claiming Joint FTF with nic.hil.kel. Geomum was the one to find this with Geodaughter. Looked in the obivious place first but not quite there, then just caught view of the cache, it was then in hand. TFTC

Joint FTF with TheKellyGang. On a Clean up of caches with TheKellyGang havn't found around the area. TFTC

Our 53rd of 56 Caches found for our Pt Augusta and surrounding area cache run.

Checked on the phone and still no one had logged it online so decided to take a detour to grab this one on the way home. Arrived and found it only to read that we had been beaten for the gold. Oh well happy with the Silver on this one.

TFTC Tk2

Thought there was still a FTF up for grabs... Slight detour only to find a signed log...
Congrats guys.. Lot of activity at the pub tonight...

Thanks for the cache Tk2
