An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -

No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.

We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center article [here](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

Couldn't find it.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Time to go?

DNF.

Could the CO please check to see if this one is still available.

Very pretty and well maintained church and gardens here. Well maintained may be the key here.
Spent quite a while looking for the right one, and anything else that looked interesting. Found, and removed, the zip bag. But no cache, damaged or otherwise was detected.
Thanks for the hunt mopoke

No luck today unfortunately

No find for us either.

.

DNF at 2:12 PM.
Had a pretty good idea from the name of the cache and the hint what we were looking for, but all we could find were real ones and an empty zip lock bag.

no luck today but tftc

Found the cache, but no log so I replaced the log, added some swaps and put the cache back. Great cache idea! TFTC. Very pretty little church, too.

Almost destroyed

Found the cache but could not write on the log as it was soaked... didn't have a replacement.... cache needs urgent maintenance as mentioned before.... TFTC

Didn't find today.

Quickly found but broken and wet. Could do with some TLC. Tftc

Finally made the find but as previously mentioned, some cache maintenance is desperately needed. TFTC TNLN

[260] GeoBop and GeoBam were getting a bit cranky and impatient for the ice cream we had promised them after we had finished geocaching … so this was our last find of the day in this beautiful church garden. What a lovely day … geocaching, ice cream for the kids and a Tobruk Woodcutters Shiraz for us. Thanks again for another cache mopoke!

Another find for the hamokids

Visiting the Barossa to play some music for the local country music club. Arrived early so had to visit Seppeltsfield Winery, which has been renovated since our last visit a few years ago. It looks great. After some tasting and the odd purchase, a bit of time to find this cache. Log ok. Tftc

Found it while on our wine tour

Lovely church. Has been lots of rain here recently!

Visited where my great great grandparents were married. TFTC, cache container is full of bugs and a worse for wear. Bugsgone for now.

Dear mopoke ... this cache needs maintenance. Cache currently looks like litter

A cache in need of repair ... log dry and safe but container dodgy ... TFTC

done

Out with Mattycat cache in poor condition, we replaced the log and added a plastic bag but some urgent container Mtce is required TFTC mopoke

Off caching around the Barossa with Mr and Mrs Froghoppin.
Found the broken camo, added replacement log. Owner may wish to fix it up asap
TFTC mopoke

Driving with the van from Strathalbyn, stopping over at various spots for overnight camps, and caching as we move. It was raining when we left Greenock, so only stopped off at caches when it was not raining. (HAHA) It rained while looking for Heavenly Rain. DNF

Camo broken - needs attention.

Our last full day in the Barossa so we headed out to grab as many finds as we could. This one needs attention. Thanks mopoke

The last day of our SA caching holiday with richlink dawns and we are off to places a bit farther a field in a quest to grab as many smilies as we able in the time we have left. Thanks for your cache mopoke, we had to wait out some muggles before we could grab this one.

Found but it's all broken with no log .. Cheers cobber

A great old Lutheran church. Even selling wine on it's noticeboard by the bell and gate!
Easy find of the cache, as was just resting amongst the leaves.
We think it needs some TLC to bring it back to it's original hide status! The cammo is all smashed.

Thanks for the cache mopoke

A very nice c1913 piece of local architecture that replaced the earlier chapel. Hurtle made the find while I explored the vicinity. Blue skies were a perfect backdrop this afternoon SL TFTC

Cache needed some repair water damaged. Left in same spot

Was a bit tricky. Replaced container and hid again.

Found by geo-daughter sneaky hide TFTC

Clever hide. TCTC

Log book wet. Unable to use. Container open at base. Gorgeous church.

A bit sneaky
Lovely spot
Tftc

Tftf

Today I was on the way with my car, after doing some exercise with the bike yesterday.
This was a quick find.
I only found the log, no container, please check.

TFTC

No joy with this one today .Didn't want to wreck the garden looking.

Owl was out on an expedition to Kapunda with Locuscache and RidetheGeoWalrus. They never got there, being too distracted by little green boxes on the way. Owl loves old churches and this is a well maintained one. The cache didn't take too long, with a concerted look and a question from Owl, "Would it be this?"

Plans were afoot to help sushilord to replace one of his hides up near Clare way with Doctor Owl and make a day of it, but sadly the weather ensured this was not going to be a thing. Instead the good Doctor and I were joined by locus cache for a northern adventure.

What a lovely little church. So well maintained, as is the associated cemetary. Doctor Owl had this one in hand almost immediately while I was fumbling around in the foliage.

This was find number 2 of 39 for the night for me. TFTC mopoke!

Today we travelled to Tanunda, Nuriootpa & returning to Greenock.
A good varieties of caches found as we drove through the many vineyards.
Thanks for placing this cache mopoke

Loved this one

Had been to this one a while back but was unable to get close due to work going on. but picked this one up today.

Love the camo on this one, hidden but in your face type cache love it. TFTF

A beautiful day and after visiting the area to plan for the upcoming 15 years of caching event (GC50486) and being rained out on the way home came back for a few finds today.
Had fun driving around the barossa today.
1129 hrs
Church was in but no one about outside

Tftc very exposed indeed. Log book need to be replaced

Sneaky hide. Found after a family funeral. Tftc

Tftc

No rain today. Hence there were a lot of muggle builders about, close to GZ. Perhaps better luck next time. Thanks mopoke.

Just time for this quick stop & find today.
It may not rain much in the barossa but it saw obviously enough to fill the cache container and log at some stage
Cheers & TFTC

We found this cache on our trip to Adelaide with team Seffnjarah. A good time was had by all. Thanks for placing this geocache.

Day 14 of team Seffnjarah and team Mickjor's trip to Adelaide and beyond. A trip out to the wineries again this afternoon. While the rest of the crew travelled to a different venue, geodaughter, Jor and I gathered a few caches.

There was definitely some sort of spookiness going on here today. It had been stinking hot and dry for all of our time in the Barossa, including this morning. However as we pulled up at GZ the heavens opened with an absolute downpour of torrential rain, Heavenly Rain indeed for those fighting bushfires in the area. We decided to brave the rain for our first search, but the rain became too heavy to continue and we retreated to the car. After waiting a while the rain eased off and we re-established our search pattern. Turned up the goods and was able to scrawl our name (just) in a very wet logbook. TFTC

Easy find. Tftc

I didn't sign in the logbook as it's all wet. Logbook needs to be replaced

Very clever

Look for the one that doesn't belong! Quick find as part of a day tour through the Barossa with bsmmmm. TFTC

Log book to wet to sign. Nice camo

So Mr & Mrs M-SEZ decided to come to the Barossa to spend the afternoon in the sun and grab a few caches. Found quickly enough, nice camo! Unfortunately the log book is completely saturated. TFTC

Out for a fun day with caching. Love all the history and area's we visited.

Cheers and thanks for the cache

Found quickly today. Everything is pretty green around here at the moment with a good amount of rain recently.

Log book is wet and pretty much run out of room to write

Nice place, very peaceful and a clever little hide

Clever hide, I like these types TFTC

Nice little hide

Our last find in the Barossa today. Looks like we came at the perfect time, the place was closed and deserted. We have seen enough of these types of hides to not have too much trouble finding them, but they are always appreciated The logs are quite damp and full, it was not easy to find a spot to write our name down. TNLNSL TFTC

Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega

We currently have our caravan parked up in Nuriootpa whilst our car is hopefully repaired (fingers crossed) at Toyota in Tanunda.

We decided to head into Tanunda today to go to the bike shop and pick up a new light for one of the geobikes.

Visited some interesting local parks and also discovered some great local history.

Thanks mopoke for allowing us to use your cache to explore this area today.

Needs a new logbook.

Sorry we didn't have any as in the loan car!

Found it thftc

Found during a nice barossa walk, Tftc, log book is all wet

Found it! Couldn't write a log though as it's to wet

Tftc! log wet

tftc

Gps on phone really going crazy here as storm approaching
Fed co ordinates into GPs and quickly located the cache
Took the time to walk around the cemetery
So many children buried here
Took our TB's along fort he ride
tftc

As we pulled up close to ground zero we looked to the skies and it looked like the heavenly rain was about to fall
A quick sign of the log and we were heading home before the heavens did fall
tftc

My phone had us going in circles today so Gwen from the x-trailers took her gps out and cache was soon in hand.
Last cache for the day.
Love old cemetery's and churches.
TFTC

Thankfully we didnt get wet with this one TFTC

After the rain we decided to go to the Barossa today to sample a few wines and find a few caches. It was quiet here today and does not look like they had much rain, the cache did not help either.
Thanks to doggybom101 for this cache

What a beautiful day in the Barossa for caching. TFTC

An ANZAC day caching run in the beautiful Tanunda and surrounds. Seen some great sights today and even managed to get my nemesis cache.

Thank you for the cache doggybom101, this was number 16 for the day.

Found after an event at the nearby Seppeltsfield hic, place, hic. Thanks.

South Australian OZ Mega 2014 in Murray Bridge. A Twelve day trip to and from the mega. Plenty of caching along the way and near Murray bridge. A great time with lots of cachers all over the place to make for a very entertaining period.

I joined up with Sol de Lune for the lead up to the Mega and the mega itself. This was the second day exploring the Barossa, with Nurioopta the center of activities. Thanks.

Albida

A couple of days out from the SA Mega and Albida and I were on a run around the area grabbing a few caches. No real problems with any of them and the ones we attempted were in good shape. I think we will need another week to make any sort of dent in the numbers around here though......

Thanks for this one......

Been trying to catch up on way old caches for ages. TFTC's everyone your cache hides are certainly appreciated and Happy Caching to you ALL!!
