Well, after a short search I found the wishing well, I then set about searching for the cache, after about five minutes I called for reinforcements from the cachemobile, once they arrived they were a bit peeved when after about a minute I called 'got it'----SL-----TFTC

We walked up to this cache after stopping by the bakery today.
A nice little spot for a cache, almost tranquil if not for the traffic noise.
Found the cache on the ground, and returned it to a likely spot after signing the log.

A nice little stroll down to the cache today, nobody around made for a nice find here

Today I headed south to Clarendon, Kangarilla, Meadows and Prospect hill to find a few caches that were new from previous visits and ones I’d missed previously. Total of 33 finds for the day

Thanks for the cache

After a lazy morning recovering from a bit of a hangover headed out for a wee drive in the hills. Collected 16 caches for the afternoon. Was nice to enjoy some sunshine before the winter weather arrives.
This was my first find of the afternoon didn’t know this wishing well was here. TFTC Lava12

Grabbed a pasty and chai from across the road then wandered over to pick up a cache. I’ve had a phobia of wells ever since I watched the Japanese horror movie The Ring when I was but a wee lass of 7. Scarrrry. TFTC SL

Nice spot. Navigation suggests the bridge but returned to the well.

So Easter means four days of caching, doesn't it.... Sir_spectre and I managed to head out early to do some walkling in Onkarparinga River National Park. We found a mix of types and sizes. A quick find today.
Thanks to Lava12 from mogni Smile

Came past here a few years ago in search of this cache, though at the time I came up with nothing. Now that I was back in the area today completing Clarendon's adventure lab I decided to give this another crack. Surprisingly, it took me less than a minute to spot the cache and retrieve it, why was it not this easy last time? With cache in hand, the log was signed and then replaced before I was on my way.

This evening, I travelled to Clarendon primarily to complete *The History of Clarendon* Adventure Lab, and visited a variety of places that contained geocaches. I hadn't fully explored Clarendon before except for an engagement party at the pub, and found it a quite historical and quaint town sitting next to the river. I used the remaining day's light to find roadside geocaches along the turns and crests of the roads, driving back through Blackwood to return home.

This geocache took me a while to find in amongst the natural camouflage. The coordinates were wandering all over the place around the well, and so it was best left to the hint, a few historical logs, and my own geocaching intuition. After about 10-15 min, I finally made the cache find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Lava12 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Catching up with late logs.

We made a spur of the moment choice to visit South Australia and try our luck at the Adventure Labs here as well as anything else that popped up close by.

This cache was one of those. We pulled up and walked to GZ where we hoped we would find the cache in a familiar hiding place. We didn't need a wishing well as the cache was found in the first place we looked and our name is now in the log book.
Many thanks Lava12 for showing us this location.

A rare trip to the Southern suburbs to grab some caches and enjoy the nice Spring weather.

My first visit to this beautiful little town. I stopped briefly for a couple of caches late in the afternoon.

A fair bit of foliage at GZ but thankfully the cache was found without problems.

Thanks for the cache Lava12.

I saw the words... " b a k e r y' on my smartphones caching map upon seeing this hide so i was not only gonna grab the Wishing Well cache but just slip on up to the "Greatness that is a Country Bakery!" to try the pastries of perfection that dwell within [^] [:p]

The cache was quickly found and the log was signed at 11:28 on Saturday the 25th of July 2020, then it was an early lunch for me... 1st in nice and early for the best variety of pies and cakes [:p] Wink

Loving being here in Clarendon that's for sure.
