It was time to get on the move again with ilook4geo, so we just did a random selection of caches along the route we wanted to take. The program didn't quite happen as when we arrived at some of them it was raining too hard to get out of the car - so we just kept on going. Thanks go to chrispy89 for adding to the caches we found today.
 
03-Aug-21
It was very variable weather today, but mostly wet. On the road with goingplaces2 but found some caches in a few periods between the rainy times. Thanks to each CO for the caches we found. It was a day when we climbed to the peak of August's mountain to gain two souvenirs.

Grass! Grass! Long, spiky grass! We can’t go over it, we can’t go under it. Oh, no...

A couple of days away with The White Dog Gang .

The bikes were bought along and we did the Rattler, the N E series and a few of the Reisling Trail. Plus any that were near the roads we travelled along.

Thanks to evryone who put out a cache that we found.

I hate big bad brad caches and I am glad this one was not in the cactus. The cache was found and is all good

This morning i decided to head to Clare for a half days caching and to attend a breakfast club event. An early start for 4:45am and came away with 51 finds by lunch time.

Thanks for the cache

One word for this one's title..... "Good!" BBB hides are deadly and i usually try to avoid them {for obvious reasons} so finding this one is a cactus-stab in the butt to BBB Big Grin

Some members of the Puzzled Puzzlers group of puzzle solvers were heading out on another Wednesday wander in search of Puzzles and anything else that comes within range. Cool Today there was myself, Anymules, Blackadders and S.A. Sewer Rats on board and our ultimate destination was Clare or thereabouts. [8)] As usual there would be giggles, blood, probably a fall and some ripped clothing plus a lot of caches found. [:o)]

This may be a Big bad Brad Blocker at the moment...but give it a couple of years and who knows [?][:o)] At present though it is still a nice quick find Smile But I see some smaller plants starting to come up in the direction of the cache. Surprised

**Thanks chrispy89 for this cache. ** Big Grin

Glad it wasn’t in the BBB today - but in a couple of years it may be as the BBB is growing towards it. A BBB still has to be better than shooting yourself in the foot.

Thanks for the cache chrispy89.

Jedika98 needed to get closer to a milestone and this could only mean a power trail or three. SA Sewer Rats was collected for company, but even this didn't break the eventual boredom. After abandoning the effort for the hoped-for total, the trio collected as many caches as they could on the way home, including this one. Nice to see the BBB prevention team in good order!

I am heading to Jordan and Qatar as part of a university trip in a few weeks, and I decided that as I am approaching 500 caches (not really but after today, I am), it would be a nice idea to get my 500th cache in either Jordan or Qatar. I informed Doctor Owl of this vague plan last week when we caught up to do maintenance last week, and she concluded that I absolutely must fulfil this plan. The problem was that by the end of our maintenance run (and caching along the way) last week, I was on 397 caches. 102 caches of the 499 needed to ensure I could get my 500th while overseas. Therefore, Doctor Owl decided that in order to get my numbers up some powertrials were needed. So we headed up north with SASewerRats, collecting caches that some or all (mainly me though) hadn't done. I ended up getting 78 caches and having a great day.
The grass was shockingly long here but a nice easy find. TFTC.

Today we explored Riverton and surrounds using Geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way with Roostaman and this was one of them. An easy find at GZ.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Our second day camped at Balaklava, and we ventured out to pick up some nearby caches.
Even though it was a hot day, we managed to complete the Rattler series and a few others.

Parked close by, and the cache was located quickly. Thankfully, it was not in the prickles.
Signed the log, and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, chrispy89, for us and others to find.

Already over half of our big caching trip to the Yorke peninsula. Goal is a lot of power trails today, but certainly not forget the caches on the way there from Stanbury and back of the peninsula to make it to our overnight address in Echuca! Perfect caching weather again today, not to hot, not to dusty and a nice breeze to cool off once in a while!

Despite the name of the cache, we still cringed as we pulled up in the car as there was a BBB threatening our search. However, as we walked towards GZ we were relieved that GZ was not at BBB but nearby. A quick search and the cache was in hand. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks for the cache chrispy89 and thabks for not putting it in the BBB.

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. Smile Cheers!

Like manty cachers, I've grown tired of BBBs.

Thanks for your caches.
