A DNF on this one. Admittedly I didn't look as hard as possible due to muggles galore.
i was right. A easy and quick find in the rain when i the correct side of the fence.
Does this car have a connection to the cache owner? Nice find in a beautiful city.
Thanks GOTHS

Thankfully we approached this one from the correct side. Busy afternoon in Strath today but we avoided muggle detection here. Didn't realise until reading the cache description what the original intent of this hide was. It all makes sense now.
We have been nearing a milestone for a while and Mrs Gizmo decided that today was the day to get those last few finds and reach the milestone. So a list was made and we set off on our journey from Tailem Bend to Murray Bridge via Langhorne Creek, Strathalbyn and finally Salem.
We managed to find all of our target caches and had lots of fun along the way. A day of interesting locations, clever hides and some silliness. The best type of day.

On our way to Wellington. Had lunch at Strathalbyn, visited friends & found a cache before heading off to Wellington. Tftc
Well, after two attempts finally got !
Like many things in life their are two sides to any problem or cache. I also met lovely group of cachers and we all signed the log.

blown the tyre on the truck so limped in to get it replaced. 2 hour wait before they started meant i went for a walk around town. I came here, but believe i was on the wrong side of the fence. By the time i finished by 5.6 km walk i didn't have time to visit the other side of the fence. I shall be back.
Sunday afternoon is probably the best time to get this one. No muggles in sight.

Was hunting on the wrong side near peppercorn trees, but then walked around the block and found it!
Looks like we went about this one the wrong way after receiving some clarification from the CO. Makes sense now.
Nice quick find, the first of 11 for the day with Wal & Ol and CacheClosed1847. TFTC #285.

After starting on the wrong side of the fence, we made it to the correct side but came up empty handed other than a disgusting zip-lock bag containing a cigarette packet stuffed with ?drugs ?body fluid which was found by the 4 year old. That's when we stopped looking.
A nice size cache in such a public place, well done. The cache is in good condition. SL TFTC
My second DNF for the day, my caching mojo has gone AWOL to-day!
So, new plan lets find a pub.

Great camo and nice hide. Using the hint was a help. Love the Bakery in this special place. Have stopped many times on our travels in S.A.

At first I was on the wrong side of the fence but once I was on the correct side I made a quick find. TFTC
A fairly quick find today as nearly all of Strath was a ghost town. The GPSr was indicating toward the large pepper tree over the fence, and we nearly drove around to thew other side for a look. Luckily I spotted a glimpse of the cache in it's cosy little spot and we soon had our stamp in the log book.
We took [„G-Race 2012“ Tomate](https://coord.info/TB3T8Z7), and left [The Hanging Parachuter](https://coord.info/TB618A7) for the next finder to move along.
Thanks GOTHS.

Hanging out with Brisal5 and Mogni while they did maintenance on this cache. Left behind the tomato which I'd held on to for far too long. I hope the next caretaker is more responsible.

We had high hope of logging a find here as we had the area to ourselves. After searching unsuccessfully, we resorted to the hint and previous logs.
Our heart sank after read the previous log, and wondered why six weeks have passed with no action from the cache owner.
We look forward to a future find when the cache gets fixed up.

Despite spending time searching around this site, which was a dump, no sign at all , may need a look see by the owner.

Went there today at about 13.30 hrs, and found an empty container without lid. It was not hidden, just sitting on the carpark ashphalt.
Plastic container with brown paint and screw on type of lid.
Looks like someone found it and destroyed it.
There was an empty plastic sleeve laying on the ground that should have been holding a geocoin that I've been following.

Out for a morning of caching with Tomboy and JJ52. This was one of our stops.
After meeting AussieM&M, these Anniversary series have a lot more meaning and the stories have bought me a lot more enjoyment.

Found out it has been moved from previous cachers memories but found it finally. TFTC
Found this one some time ago...just remembered to log it now while attempting a close by multi
A quick find with a muggle friend, once we realised what side of the fence we needed to be on - as we'd approached from the opposite direction on foot and hadn't realised there was a carpark off the other street, no one around at the hour we were there so no worry about muggles.
GEOCACHING ROCKS!!! [:X]
Thanks for the cache GOTHS!

Found this out in the open. The tree had been cut down and it appears the container was just thrown aside. Re hid it the best we could

We are on our way home from a 5 day holiday from Bendigo to Kangaroo Island, staying at Kingscote.
Today we have very little time to stop as we have to travel from Kingscote to Nhill.
Managed to snaffle this on while we stopped in this very pretty but water logged spot for lunch. Cache was in the open in a very bare garden so you might want to check on it.

Dr Owl had a free day and invited a fish out for a caching run.... This means a day of good company, many laughs and a bit of caching thrown in for good measure. My tally was 26 finds, including a couple of unexpected bonus finds and 4 dnf's. After my disastrous directing
I don't think I'll be asked along again.
Dr Owl built up my expectations here, it's a pity to see the original cache has been replaced.

Stepped over a decoy cache near the real cache. Many thanks GOTHS

China shop next door was closed but the cache was open for business, with a big dry log book too. TFTC
Today we were in the area having found all caches in the OTD January series. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of this cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks GOTHS for the cache and the series.
No need to advance past the private property gate. Once we were in the right car park it was an easy find. TFTC
Haven't been on a hunt for a while so took my mate the Russian on her first TFTC
Found (finally) by The Boofs TFTC ☺. Always we were in the wrong car park!
In the area visiting family, so thought I would hunt down some local caches, found this one with Number 1 Geo- Son.
This cache was my 200th find as well
