Tftc, Lou and Paul from the Blue Mountains NSW. Travelling with Savannah. Cache in good order.
This one is nicely covered up and took a bit to find. Great hide and thanks for taking us here.
Had a nice little adventure wondering the billabong to find all these caches. However, I didn't get to sign them all after losing my pen so the digital log will have to do. TFTC!!
TFTC out on the geoscooter with Algae on his geoeuc grabbing some smilies in the Mildura area. Decided to have breakfast in Mildura then hit some caches. A great day out.
Found this cache in a muggle free location. Log was signed and then put back into place. TFTC.
Staying in Mildura for a short visit with ilook4geo and picking up a few local caches while out and about. Thanks go to ww2_nut for this cache placement. All good with this one.
Popped through to check on this cache due to recent DNF. Cache is still in its hiding spot.Disappointing to see the amount of rubbish that has been left at this beautiful location. Some people just have no respect.
This where things went wrong, it started to rain as I was cycling to here, then the amount of rubbish around the shelter put me off. I may have seen the cache but discounted it as another piece of rubbish.
Out for a Sunday morning of geocaching around Kings Billabong with the family and geopup. Did a quick solo find for this one, great cache!TFTC!
Nice bend in the river here. Bended to cache the cache.
Found on a sojourn all around on the way to QOGM 2023. A fun jaunt with lots of dust, mud and starry skies.
Thanks ww2_nut and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!

We're down looking for fishing spots, saw a geocache which was not far away.
Awesome hiding spot.
Even found the resident gecko.
Also a beautiful view.

Southern Autumn adventure Day 56. Mildura Trip Day 5. Everyone from Canberra has now headed off and I have a couple more days here. I did move from Red Cliffs to Mildura Central today, so that took all the morning. Once I was set up, I headed down to the river by the Psyche Pumps to try and get to as many of the caches in that area done before it got too dark and then do a night multi. Apart from getting cold, I was really happy at how well the area has dried out after the flooding, and it is excellent that so many caches have been repaired or replaced this year. That is very encouraging.
Thanks for the cache ww2_nut

Just like Khaleesi, today I came in search, in search for a lost Travel bug, in an attempt at my first rescue mission. Fortunately, the cache was located. Unfortunately, both travel bugs listed in the inventory are GOA and MIA.
New container and a dry logbook back in position and ready to go.
It's such a lovely location here but such a shame people leave litter. Mini CITO carried out while I was here.

Attempted to replace this cache today but the area was busy with muggles. So will have to return another day
Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Staying in Coomealla for a few nights and decided today we would explore the Red Cliffs area. Some lovely areas, but somewhat spoiled by the transmission towers. Needed a place for lunch so headed for the kings lagoon lookout which turned out to be a great view of the area. Ate lunch and then headed down the track to the cache. Quickly spotted the hide. Extracted the log but the log was wet and mouldy but usable.
Signed and replaced as found. Didn't really have enough time to dry things out as several carloads of muggles rocked up and were looking for parks so we left to give them room. Liked the hide so a fave for that.

Tftc, navigation is accurate, for people that don’t find it you need to walk down one of the dirt tracks to get to it, does require a bit of walking off track. Hint: look for something green
3 events in 3 states they said, well that grew... JAMMS ventured East and managed to attend several events, found numerous caches and adventure labs. Lots of hugs, food and laughs.

Big day today out with Jams crew attempting the tri state event challenge. Challenge accepted.
Early 5am start and pick up at 5.45am and then a big drive to Berri. One cache in Kingston and a loo stop before the first event in Berri. A welcome spot for a coffee by the river.
Onwards to Wentworth and our second state for the day and another lovely location by the river. Afternoon caching around Wentworth, sand dunes, Merbein for adventure labs. Great new series by the oxbow lake.
Then it was time for the fabulous 3rd state celebration event in Victoria. Followed by an adventure doing a night cache.
Finally to euston back in NSW for an event, a beer and 3 caches and to our accommodation at Gol Gol arriving at 10. Yes it was a big day out! Huge day lots of fun, lots of events, lots of caches and adventure labs. 20000 steps for the day, yahoo! Much thanks to all the COs and event holders.
Found after the community celebration event for Victoria. TFTC

The JAMS crew ( all 5 of us this trip JJ52,Allister w, Mogni, Michells&hound plus Sir_Spectre ) where headed to the 3 Community Celebration events in 3 states in one day plus a side trip down Euston
( it's only 55 km from our B&B one way ) for another geocaching event then a brief sleep. Then another geocaching event before Michells&hound hosted a CITO event in NSW. Of course there was time for finding of finding caches over 60 in the first day. Thanking those co for placing them and extra, extra thanks for the co for placing the gadget/field puzzle/creative caches. I left some fav points to let you know to keep up the good work. The way home was longer than getting there since we stopped and solved/stamped some multi's and off set letter box hides. Another good weekend away for us.

A JAMS weekend away was organised so that we could attend the tri state celebration eventsa plus a couple of other events and a CITO over the two days. We had a very early start and arrived at the Berri event only a half an hour after it started. After a coffee and some catching up we headed east over to Wentworth for the next event and a few caches along the way. More catching up, an AL and a visit to the sandhills, then on to Merbein for a couple of new AL's and more caching between there and Mildura. On to the 5pm event with lots of snags and slices that went down very well. Then a night cache before heading to Euston for the last event of the day. Only had time for a drink there, then found 3 caches and finally headed to our accommodation in Gol Gol. Slept very well, then up and about making our way to the breakfast event and more catching up. Found a few gadget caches before the CITO, picked up some rubbish and then started our drive home. Still managed to get a few caches along the way.
All in all a great weekend with thanks to all the CO's and organisers of the events.
Stopped here on our way to the night cache.
Thanks for the cache ww2_nut.

A nice esy find and being a week day there were no muggles about. The very nice log bog book was somewhat damp but I managed to sign it, the test i use to check if I need to replace it. In this case I would be reluctant to swap out the this log book because that would make the cache lest interesting. So I just drained yhr cache and returned the book. I would have placed in a ziplock bag but the one I had were too small. TFTC.

This was quick and easy. Nice one for our geokids friends to find who is new to geocaching. TFTC!
Quick find today, getting to hot to out for us fragile cold weather southerners. TFTC
Wow! What a view. We would not have seen it if it wasn't for geocaching. A quick find. TFTC
In town for a few days away grabbing some caches up along the Murray River and beyond with the crew. Plenty of smiles each day under our belt as we tackled the P.S series and also the Turtle but today we decided to grab the GOT series as we made our way around Kings Billabong following our gps'r. This one was quickly located after some searching, certainly helps with a few extra sets of eyes and hands around, sorry about the late log! Thanks for the hide ww2 nut.
*Staying in Mildura for a few days*
In town with Happy pants, Happy Feet, The Empire, omegaman1971 and Rebel Acts for a few nights and to clean up the Paddle Steamer Geo Art Trail and a few other series if time permitted.
After coffee there was still some daylight left so we headed out of town grabbing a few scattered caches. A great day had by all.
Thanks for the cache ww2_nut. Appreciate your efforts.
Stamped log and returned as found.

In Mildura for a few days with Snap Happy, omegaman1971, Happy Feet, Happy Pants and The Empire. After having these solved for some time and holds up getting here due to Covid the planets had finally aligned and today was the day to do the The Paddle Steamer Series and a few other caches in the area.
We had a great day out on the trails with perfect weather for caching with all caches in the series found.

Here in Mildura for a few days with Snap Happy, omegaman1971, Happy Feet, Happy Pants and now joined by Rebel Acts.
We'd just smashed out the geoart, but we still had some daylight left and decided to head into town for a coffee and a slice. We found a few caches along the way, then after our snack we realised there was some more daylight left and our day (the biggest day of geocaching for most of us) wasn't over just yet. Now that we've started this series, we had to come back tomorrow to finish it off! Thanks for the cache ww2_nut.

This was a great opportunity to get away with some caching friends in Mildura. The plan was to hit some of the local trails and geo art. There was many other hides discovered, with some really great containers and hides in the area.
We didn't have much light left for today but decided to start this series and see how far we got. Grabbed the clue.
Thanks ww2_nut for placing the cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy the find.

Four South Australian's ventured across the border to attempt the paddle Steamer series.
Three of us then went on to do the Turtle series the following day.
And two of us did teh Game of Thrones series the day after that.
We loved all three of teh series.

The mother of dragons was another of the very strong female leads in this series that stayed the course throughout. The last few episodes her strongest.
Amon Targaryen the man that could have been king was a favourite character too. The books gave him a bigger part than the shows.
This is where our GoT series ends today. After forgetting to put one on a list I’m one vital number short of a final. We could have walked it hoping to find it but that would not have gone down well with Geokid who by now has crumpled into the front seat with the cooler on full blast.
I think I know what his one word answer would have been.

Found on a trip from Adelaide to the Mildura area for a few days of caching with Team Waldron, Brisal5 and FeatherWaite. Our main targets were the Paddle Steamer and Turtle geoart series' but we also took the opportunity to seek out a few other caches along the way.
We were fortunate with the weather. After a burst of very hot days, we timed our trip nicely to coincide with the milder conditions before the next hot spell. That helped to make both the caching and the camping along the Murray River and in the Murray-Sunset National Park very pleasant.
We ended up finding all the caches that we had targeted. Most were in good order. Some of the puzzles were quite challenging and there were some very novel and entertaining multi's. Some certainly took a bit of finding and there were many very clever and/or tricky caches and containers that were a credit to the cache owners’ ingenuity.
It would have been good to have had another day or two to complete the remaining caches in the area, but I’m sure we’ll be back.
Thanks to all the cache owners for the hides.

I have seen a T shirt with Sleep Eat Cache Repeat [^] Well a four day trip to Mildura with caching friends Team Waldron, E.gregory and FeatherWaite certainly fit that bill. Logs were signed with initials only for the teams - BEFW
Up at daybreak, quick breakfast and cache all day stopping only to have a snack whilst out on the trails, rush to set up camp near dusk for a meal, then perhaps some night caching, early night and REPEAT!
Strategic camping at Kings Billabong, Rocket lake and The Common meant we were close by the Geoart and target night caches. Two previous trips in 2013 and 2016 by me and some by E.gregory meant we visited some (well quite a few actually) previous finds but that made it quick for the people that hadn't found them previously.
I can't thank the CO's of these caches enough as some were really very inventive. Even having solved most puzzles before we came we were confronted with field puzzles and gadgets that were just mind boggling. [:X][:X][:X]

Found during a trip from Adelaide to the Mildura area for a few days of caching with Brisal5, e.gregory1 and Team Waldron with the main aim to complete the Paddle Steamer and Turtle GeoArt series but also to find other caches along the way. We camped out on the banks of the Murray River near Mildura on the first night, at Rocket Lake campground in the Murray-Sunset National Park on the second night, then back to the banks of the Murray River near Merbein on the last night. We signed the logs as B.E.F.W. Thanks to all the cache owners for placing the cache!
We are filling in a bit of time while we wait for a phone consultation and then we are off to the PS Series. We recorded the information needed and were on our way. SL TFTC
TFTC. We are in Mildura with good friends muff1. We are here primarily to attack the PS series, however due to a prior appointment we needed to stay close to a strong telephone signal. Rather than waste time we decided to find some caches around the area. This was one of 20 before we headed out to the PS series..
Hi there ww2_nut.
We found your cache **"GOT Series - 1. House Targaryen"** at 9:37:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 24692).
We're staying in Mildura to hunker down over the current Victorian lockdown. to get our exercise today we decided to attempt some local caches as well as some more of the "Turtle" series. We found 12 caches & DNF'd 0.
Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache close to where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge
Thank you ww2_nut for adding to our adventure.

Ian & Penny
