After a tasty pie and sauce for breakfast I headed to a known location to pick up some rubbish, enjoyed a colourful sunrise and poked a bear . It was then that I decided to make the most of this early start.I headed home, hopped on my bike , rode a couple of trains and followed a trail of caches into the vines .A most enjoyable day/night down south finding treasures.TFTC LBKeep smiling
Travelling with richlink on our Annual Caravan Geocaching road trip, using geocaching as our guide. We're staying in in the area for a few days, hunting down some nearby caches in this lovely part of SA. We walked the track enjoying all around us. This is the best of the OTD series that we have completed. Thank you. LNCU
Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA on a SA caching foray. Staying in Aldinga for a few days and ranging from there to grab some finds. Scored a beautiful day after a couple of chilly ones. Thanks for the hide LNCU
Perfectly sunny day for a pedal Prob did 16 or so kliks from McLaren Vale to Old Noarlunga return - map showed 13km as the crow flies. Mixed results on the caching but picked up the pace closer to the coast. A swag of DNFs near my start point on the Shiraz Trail Then back to the Shingleback winery a bit later for tasting after I stowed the bike on the car.
Impressed with the good coords. Liked the containers for ride-by caching. A couple of hides with a Terrain rating of mountain goat but I was wearing runners. One butt slide to get back down to the track. A few waves and strange looks from others taking advantage of the balmy weather
Saving the other half of this trail for another day
TFTC COs Couldn’t have asked for a better excursion today.

A previous comment about remaining grounded in your thinking helped me with this one. TFTC

Out for an afternoon caching on the bike today. Made my way through the December series without too much trouble. Tftc!!
I’m surprised by the number of kangaroos along this section of the pathway. What a great train ride it would have been.

It was a beautiful day for a walk along the Shiraz Trail in the company of The 4 Hawks and Moose 3. With the sun shining and a nice cool breeze we collected all the caches in this series between South Rd and Victor Harbour Rd. Thanks for taking the trouble to put out these caches.
Camping at Mt Compass for Easter today Mr Felix decided to cycle from Willunga to Old Noarlunga picking off caches as he went. Great day out but boy was the cycle trail busy and by the time he finished it was 33degrees and a bit warm. [B)]

As a Sagittarius born on December 12th, you have a charismatic and idealistic personality. You will chase diverse experiences in life and will guide yourself by very flexible principles.
Life is supposed to be an adventure and you are very involved in making sure that this is how it is going to be for you and those close. Get ready to understand yourself better below.
The zodiac sign for December 12 is Sagittarius.
Astrological symbol: Archer. This is the symbol of the Sagittarius zodiac for people born November 22 - December 21. It is suggestive for an individual aiming high, having a positive outlook on life and great charisma.
The Sagittarius Constellation lies between Scorpius to the West and Capricornus to the East on an area of 867 sq degrees and has Teapot as its brightest star. Its visible latitudes are between +55° to -90°, this being one of the zodiac's twelve constellations.
The French name it Sagittaire while the Greeks prefer their own Toxotis, however the origin of the December 12 zodiac sign, the Archer, is the Latin Sagittarius.
Opposite sign: Gemini. This suggests education and intellectuality and shows that cooperation between the Gemini and Sagittarius sun signs is thought to be beneficial for both sides.
Modality: Mobile. This quality of those born on December 12 proposes wits and perceptiveness and also offers a sense of their conservative nature.
Ruling house: The ninth house. This house governs human transformation through travel and education and long journey. It is suggesting that we all should view life as a perpetual adventure with the aim to broaden our knowledge and spirituality.
Ruling body: Jupiter. This planet is said to govern over extension and consciousness and also reflects the enthusiasm inheritance. The Jupiter glyph is an ascending crescent moving forward.
Element: Fire. This is the element that works so to the benefit of those born on December 12, of those who are brave and follow their plans independently and who are quick to reveal their heated nature at times. TFTC Lib 3lg

In Port Elliott today, great day for caching, back to McLaren Vale today to finish off the December run before the heat hits later this week. TFTC
Put the sweat wheels on the car today and headed south, with primary aim being a couple of trads left in the O'Halloran Hill Recreation Park which is in my 42K circle from home. After that I headed further south to the December OTD series where the bike would also be useful. Ended up finding all 25 left in the series.
Thanks LíB for the cache and the series.

Down South again on this Perfect, Sunny but cool day of Wednesday the 9th of September 2020, i decided to finish off this the "OTD December" Series having done the rest from 17 December upwards a while ago. Pls note, all hides were found and were in good condition. [Some moisture-munchers were added where they were missing in some of the caches].
Man this one did my head in for well over 10 minutes. It was only when i looked into past logs and saw the pictures i realized my mistake. [Insert MEGA Clown Face with the Dumbest look ever!]
The cache was a quick find once i realized my error then corrected it.
SL at 12:20.

Decided to go for a walk today and had a look on the map and this OTD series looked good! started on sth rd side and convinced myself that I would go to the bridge and head back to the car.. but I ended up walking all the way to Victor Harbour Rd, Mclaren vale and back! Seen a fair bit of wildlife, snals, bugs, a RED BACK SPIDER, Kangaroos, a FROG and some sheep! TFTC!
Found while out for a casual day of caching with Dr Owl.

Thanks for the cache!
That took us a really long time but we eventually found it after reading the logs, we were definitely looking high rather than low for too long
Hooray. About to log another DNF but re-read the logs and soon in hand.Phone GPS had it about 8m out. TFTC#434
