I was wondering is it on the cross or is it on the ground we’re it is accessible for a small person(me)
Found this cache after a little lap around the location. Got my eye in and had the cache in hand!
Thought i would start the week off with a smiley
Noticed this ones last log was a DNF so gave myself a bit more time to spend at ground zero.
Not sure where the other person was looking as while i was heading towards the big cross i spotted the hide and had Cache in hand in moments.
Thanks, Cache all here in good shape

Spent quite a while walking around in the damp grass before we found this on the opposite side to where we had been looking. TFTC
With the two geocaching breakfast events out of the way this morning, @gridge98 and I planned a trip to the south collecting a whole bunch of suburban caches whilst trying to target a few higher D/T caches, and picking out a few of the *Mystery at the Museum* promotion caches with the appropriate clue for us. I think we ended up using the ladder 3-4 times during the afternoon, so we certainly put it to good use.
A nice cache that was quickly found at GZ. Thanks Lava12.

A nice and easy find
After the events this morning Davidwazza and myself headed down south to collect some caches. We just did whatever was close by as well as helped Davidwazza finish his DT grid. Some great caches yo and down in terrain aswell.
Total of 29 for the afternoon.

Had the geoson sign this one. Excuse the drawing over a few logs. He's almost 3 and doesn't have his pen license yet. Tftc
An after work geocaching hunt for me today. Went the long way home but managed to quickly grab eight caches all the first place I looked.
Thanks to Lava12 from mogni

I think it has been removed. The area looked as if lots of things had been damaged/taken.
Geosis erine14 wanted me to come and look for this one, we found it, I guess I am less scared of spiders TFTC Lava12
Returned with the geosister and sure enough she had it in hand in no time at all! Glad to get rid of this blue frown off of the map! Thanks for cache Lava12
Checked and it is still there. Happy Hunting “Keep out” is for the door. Ok just go around. Ok 
This was our big 100 Geocache so thanks to Misty Kratt for your comment. Very happy end to the day!! TFTC
I think this cache is to be my nemesis cache! Had a good poke around, felt a bit awkward since there is signs saying keep out etc. At least I didn’t sprain my ankle looking this time! I will return another time and perhaps bring the geosister and see if she can spot it
More crazy birds to contend with here. Absolute nutter minor birds going crazy. Found the nicely hidden cache here after one circle round the building avoided a return to the side where the birds were TFTC another crafty hide
Took a first timer to find this one. Was a bit of a challenge, tricky spot. Was afraid of spiders but took the risk.
Didn’t find the cache. Be careful of the uneven ground at GZ, I slipped over and twisted my ankle which ended the search! Will return another day and be more mindful of the ground!
Going throuh all my dads (Rod81w) finds to see which caches i have missed out on as i wasnt a member at the time,
Thanks for the cache
i always tell my dad look at the big T

This sneaky little tacker was hiding behind a mystery icon... but we found him!! TFTC
Made the trip south by moonlight with Purrfect Di to target a challenge cache,
had to pass this one on the way home, so why not.
After a quick look around we came up with the right spot!

Decided to go see if we could turn a couple of 
into 
today. This was on our list to reattempt. Found this one quite quickly after having been caching for a lot longer now, have a better idea of where to look.

Ok ... time for a road trip - Mum and Dad came down from Qld, in their campervan, for a visit, then Mum flew home (ready to go overseas with a friend) and Dad and I headed off in the campervan, on a trip from Canberra (where I live) to Adelaide (where I was born) for his sister's 80th ... we spent a week driving there the long way, and taking our time visiting some interesting places and checking out a few places we used to visit/live/etc ... and stopping for me to find the odd cache or 5 ... or more ... lol
We then spent a week around Norlunga, Moana, Sellicks Beach, Mt Compass, etc catching up/visiting/doing things with relatives, and driving around looking at places we used to live/do stuff/etc, and a few beaches and other interesting things ... and me finding caches here and there as we went
We spent the morning driving around looking at houses where relatives used to live, and where I went to school for my first year (now a funeral place - lol), and the house I lived in for the first 7 years of my life (in Williams Avenue). Then we had lunch at the nearby Holly Reserve, that is most likely named after my Grandfather (and/or his family) - Arnold Holly (who was chairman of the Noarlunga Council for about 20 years ... until approximately 1970) Then we headed off to Port Adelaide to visit a family friend before I had to home to Canberra the next day ...
TFTC - Took several minutes to find this ... I had a look around, and wondered if it was missing ... maybe my brain wasn't properly in gear - I had another better look, and there it was
I must say, I was rather surprised to find Cankid's signature in the log book - lol
(I have met him at events, and found quite a few of his caches, here in Canberra

The wise Owl collected Mrs SA Sewer Rats for a day of caching and laughter. WE threw our usual plans out the window and just went for multis, solved puzzles and the caches that crossed their path.
this was a quick by the Owl, in an obvious spot. Even the spiders thought so. TFTC
The fifth and final find for the day. Back home again from the morning's escapades and I was itching to do some more caching. I noticed this one was published by an interesting reviewer and upon checking the status of my stats for the 'Unique Reviewer Challenge', realised I only needed one more and this one would fit the bill. So I set off on my bike out to GZ, as it wasn't too far from home.
After a nice ride, I arrived at GZ and immediately received a phone call asking if I could cover a shift this evening at work. I said no on account of me being 950km away
! After a short enough search around GZ, I eventually discovered the sneaky hide. Log signed and cache replaced. TFTC Lava12!

It was a beautiful sunny day accompanied with some good finds, nice to see so many caches along the river holding up well.

Tricky! Would not have found this if a very helpful fellow geocaher had not helped us!
Fantastic anti-muggle location, but I was a little worried what creatures my fingers might uncover when I was looking around the GZ. Found it without any spider bites though, so all good!
The log is almost full (about 3 spots left I reckon) and the plastic bag it's in has a hole in it, so both need replacing a.s.a.p. Thanks Lava12.

I had to do some work at this location so a quick find and sign was in order.
Good hide, good condition.
This is actually on land owned by the church so extra stealth should be used.

Found It!
It took me four laps of the building before I spotted this one...
I was always a bit surprised that Marconi never got a unit of measurement named after him...

Kind of had to do this one as my team did it without me last night signed log tftc
Found quickly whilst down this way on other business. Needed to kill some time, what better way to do it. Thanks for the Cache
I could win an award for most caches found but not logged online. Please forgive this very generic log. If I admired your cache you'll get a favourite point from me and I'll likely come back and edit this log once I've caught up. If this generic log makes you unhappy - delete it. Life's too short to worry over it, I had fun finding your cache either way. Cheers!
Cheers!gps had me 3 metres off cache but found it in the 4th place I looked in a typical lava 12 spot
Hooray. Another lava12 smiley on my screen. A quick and easy grab from under the big letter t(s).
After a previous DNF geo daughter and I found it, Briana didn't want to reach to get the cache and thought the cross was a a big T
