Checked in on this while going past. To bad the old spanner that the cache was named for is no longer there. Cache was in good condition.
 
06-Apr-24
Now that the main reason for our journey was over and multiple caching trails were completed it was time to venture home. Our Mob had gone separate ways. Only three teams left now us, Rapidlywild and The Drovers. We made our slow journey back to Mildura where we were stopping for the night, caching all the way. Lovely weather couldn't have asked for better weather for this journey. Log stamped and we were on our way again. Thanks for the hide Dazzatron and thanks for a fun adventure Rapidlywild

Out and about travelling from Adelaide to Renmark and doing caches along the way. Stopping here and stopping there. A very hot day! Found cache and signed log. TFTC
 
12-Mar-24
Today we left the Gawler area where we have been for the last 6 days and making our way to Renmark. The predicted 39c temp certainly slowed us down after lunch but we did a few more than expected - we must be getting use to the heat wave!!Found a variety of caches on our travels and appreciate the time and effort that COs put into the caches placed for us to find.

Traveling between the Riverland and the Barossa with BettyBoo3747 and the geodoggies.
A little bit of a convoluted route picking up a few unfinished caches and ones needed for challenges.
Not exactly sure what we were stopping for here (apart from the cache)
Thanks, Robmc.
 
10-Sep-22
#19787. Day 6 of our holiday and today Robmc, the geo-doggies and I are leaving Renmark and making our way to Tanunda for a week. Started with some caches in Berri and picked up a few more along the way.

Not sure what this one was about - maytbe whatever caught your eye many years ago, is not here any more.

Thanks Dazzatron

Final day of a wonderful birthday weekend away with some very special caching buddies of mine. Heading home and stopping for a few caches along the way.

My mates had left me as they hightailed for home, so I thought I’d just grab a couple more while I’ve still got a bit of daylight, only to find they found these on their way UP the river while I was still working!

After three rather intense days of caching, focussing on the amazing "On Your Bike" geo-art, today we took the opportunity to enjoy the Murraylands in the company of fellow Victorians & caching companions - Suscoe. Nice quick find today.

Thanks Dazzatron for placing caches in interesting locations.

Today I headed out for a day of caching around Blanchetown. I didn’t believe Mrs Google when she said it was going to be 26 degrees. I am not sure it was that wallet but it was quite a contrast to previous days.
Was happy to come away with around 50 finds and only a few dnf.
I mainly focused on the Ronka JLWE series the puzzles were all found in great condition but unfortunately the trads were a little worse for wear, alas I didn’t have any ‘large’ containers to replace with. Was good to finally get this series ticked off.
There were a lot of sleepy lizards out and dragon flies obviously as confused as me with the change in temperature.
Enjoyed a nice picnic down by the river and even managed to fit in some cache maintenance on the way home.
My thanks to all the CO for their awesome efforts.

Cache hunting around the Barossa area with goingplaces2 went on today. Loved the caching around here and found a good selection for the day. Each log was signed and replaced before moving on to the next cache. This was a very quick and easy find along the highway. TFTC.

An Adder, Rat and a Starfish had were on a mission to seek a number of new puzzle caches that were placed for the Roonka event weekend and to turn a number of others on the mao to smileys.

One that only the Adder needed to get so fighting the gale force wind, the cache was soon in hand. He had been informed that there was at some stage a large spanner near the cache but alas no spanner there now Sad Log signed and returned. TFTC

After a good nights sleep, lukie1987 and I decided on a bit of a numbers run as we gradually headed towards Adelaide after our road trip from Melbourne to Alice Springs and back was coming to an end. After finishing up the TdF series, we decided to make our way towards Swan Reach where we would camp for the night.

A nice quick find here as we made our way along the highway

Many thanks to Dazzatron for the cache. TNLN.

Please excuse this generic log. I am following the 2017 Australian Solo Speedway Championship meetings that are being held in Adelaide, Mildura, Undera and Kurri Kurri, and grabbing some caches along the way.
I have done so many in recent days that I cannot do them individually. Be assured that I enjoyed and appreciated your cache, and I am grateful that you have taken the time to hide and maintain the cache.
