Found at 12:43 pm. Just Uni and Luna grabbing a few caches.

I couldn’t find it because it was very small and I searched very carefully but I still couldn’t find it

Great to have a geo-mate today. Teamed up with AussieSparkie for a fun day of finds (and some no finds!) tftc TB left

Today I teamed up with 17MG to find caches in the Mount Barker area. We found some and we didn’t find some. Thanks for the cache.

I'm the original Eilish. My dad placed the cache for me when I was a little kid. Was back in the area for Christmas and stumbled upon a cache named after me after all these years. A nice easy find with a lot of nostalgia attached. Thank you!!

Easy find. Very slippery underfoot after all the rain and hail! All is in good order and dry, TFTC

.

Teddy bears - who said Teddy bears [?] I looked here then I looked there. Nothing fluffy, just plastic.

Thanks to earthlight and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]

Headed out towards CP land today for a nice wander in a couple of parks [^]
This was one of the fun finds along the way
Cheers and TFTC earthlight

Making the most of the morning and afternoon sunshine before the forecasted rains, i based myself around the Mt Barker area. I was targeting specific caches to work on my 5x 360 degree challenge.

Found after a short search.

Thanks for the cache earthlight.

Fantastic location for a geocache! We’ve lived in Mount Barker for 10 years and agree this would be a great place for a teddy bears picnic! We will be back here soon with our teddy bears and squishmallows!

Found it. Nice hide.

My first find was 14/09/19, almost exactly ten years after Earthlight. TFTC!

Quite easy to find and it was under a log

Found it, all good.

Nice found

Full time nomads exploring SA. We headed out with a list hoping to complete all of the multi caches that we had started on Monday afternoon. Once the list was completed we found ourselves in Nairne so we decided to tackle the AdLab before heading home. Of course it took us way longer than we expected.

sadly our day finished with a DNF too.

TFTC

Thanks earthlight for placing this lovely cache here to allow me to grab another one of the SA counties.

Nice area for a picnic, easy find, sign and replace. TFTC

Easy find thanks.
Needs a new container

Took longer than it should have. Container has a hole in it. TNLN SL TFTC

Quick park and grab. Log is wet though. Tyftc. Jones Family.

earthlight had rung me a couple of day's ago, asking if I could drive her to Mt Barker so that she could do some cache maintenance[?][^] I informed her that Thursday would be a good day, since I was going there anyway to attend an event
We had an afternoon start and then made the most of the trip by getting back to earthlight's about 9pm[|)][^]
On the way home, we had a tad of excitement when a lovely policeman lit our night with red and blue lights Apparently I'd entered a lower speed zone and hadn't realised He very nicely[:X] warned me to slow down, which I did![^]
Total caches for the day was 5: 4 cache finds and 1 event attended

Had the background to this geocache explained to me by the CO[^]
Clever hide[^]
Rex enjoyed the area as much as I did[^]

This evening, I travelled to Mount Barker to visit Laratinga Wetlands (including for an organised event), find a few suburban geocaches, as well as to complete the *Hills Sculpture Trail* Adventure Lab. I really enjoyed the wetlands and it appeared to be quite popular with visitors. The geocaches visited around the area seemed to be mixed with success.

Great reserve and shade area. The cache container and logbook were in good shape, although the logbook was a little damp. Thanks earthlight for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

After looking a couple times we finally found it! My 3yr old was so excited to find the little pony inside. We replaced it with a ladybug painted rock.

My no2! on my first day of GCing, with just my geo dog .
Thanks

Our second ever cache - embarrassingly difficult but we found it! Well hidden

A quick find on a daddy-daughter caching day. Left a pony. TFTC!

Cheers and found

After giving up, and realising the gps was jumping around, deciding to go, something caught my eye. Great camo! Tftc

Found it
Under a gum now though

Good find by the kids. Well hidden

I haven’t been caching in a while because of work and uni but today was the 20th anniversary of Geocaching so I knew I’d need to head out to nab a souvenir. This was a nice easy local cache; with the right approach I walked straight up to it. TFTC

A quick find on a not so pleasant morning. TFTC

Tftf. After I got to the right place was easy

Found - was feeling a little silly we couldn't see it but we did in the end

I found a bit hint at the hide but overlooked the container at first! It looked like it had to be the spot so I tried again and there it was!

Found it. Easy find and a good‘un for the kids.

Given the current COVID-19 situation and the totally justified postponement of the Millicent Mega, we decided to head home three weeks early, leaving Adelaide today and heading east. There were only a few caches along the direct route into Victoria - this was one of them

Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a well hidden cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks earthlight for this cache in a very picturesque area.

As Co of this cache am requesting all cachers take precautions and use hand sanitizer and gloves when locating caches due to the corona virus and it's related health issues. Please stay safe everyone

A caching day had been planned with Doctor Owl and it was decided that we would come down to Murray Bridge for a couple of new caches, then head out to a couple of solved puzzles and find any others that we came across heading back to Mount Barker. [^]

A great day of finding caches, driving some wonderful back roads, walking and climbing trees, and by the time we had finished we were both tired but very pleased with what we achieved.

A nice quick find here right where the GPSr was pointing.

Thanks for the cache earthlight.
