Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA on a SA caching foray. Staying in Millicent for a few days to grab some finds placed for the ill fated Mega 2020. Thanks for the hide. LNCU
Travelling with richlink on our Annual Caravan Geocaching road trip, using geocaching as our guide. We are staying at Millicent for the week, finding some of the caches we should have found if we had not been prevented from attending the 2020 Mega by Covid19. Thanks for the cache. LNCU.
Love my mum to the moon and beyond. Took a minute or 2 to find the cache.

We headed over the border with Robmc, the campers and the bikes for 4 days of caching. We had a coupe of days of fabulous weather and the rain held off for most of it.
Day 2 we left our camp at Tantanoola and headed into the pines to tackle this series on the bikes. A lovely morning for a ride and all caches were in good condition and readily found.
Thanks for contributing to a great few days of caching.

Day one on a SE SA short trip with The Morris.
We started on the Honan Mint trail.
While we had our bikes out, we thought we would have a look at the start of this series in Pine Plantation.
We did two of this series, and decided to come back for more tomorrow now we knew a bit about the tracks.
Thanks, Robmc.

Visiting this area to attend a conference which begins Wednesday so i have a few days to explore some of what is on offer in these parts via geocaching. This afternoon I spent walking some of the forest roads and tracks collecting colourfully themed caches. A very enjoyable experience Thanks whichwayz
A lovely big hole for a cache… need one that size for all the mums who are larger than life!

SL at 1:35pm. I would be lying if I said today was a fantastic day weatherwise for caching. Saw some kangaroos on the drive in. Easy find here today. Oh that feeling you get when another cacher has signed the log the same day as when you found it - but you haven't seen anyone else in the area - like missing ships in the night! Lovely poem here but I am definitely not the World's Greatest Mum but I'll sign the log anyway!

Today is the Geohusbands birthday. I made him go caching I think he enjoyed it. He helped me find 2 caches and did all the driving.
All up around 28 finds for the day. We drove through the forests, we saw a few speeding Roos. There were a zillion lady birds they were incredible. Also lots of butterflies. Lovely.
Then back to Tantanoola for lunch. Off to Millicent for extra supplies and then onwards to Carpenters Rocks the fog rolled in and now we are sitting surrounded by fog. Birthday BBQ and bubbles next on the agenda.

A trip to the South East with Featherwaite for a few days.
We had a great time and found a "few" caches along the way.
Any issues with a specific case will be in Featherwaite's log.

Found with Team Waldron during a trip to the south-east for a few days. On Day 1 we travelled via Meningie, the Coorong and Kingston SE to Millicent and Tantanoola. On Day 2, we toured around Glencoe and completed the STCL series, Colour by Song series, and the AooA series (and found any other caches along the way). On Day 3 we cached around Tarpeena then to Mt Gambier to do the Adventure Lab caches and down to Port MacDonnell. On the final day we completed the Honan Mint Trail and found the southern half of the Awaken and Live series before time got the better of us and we headed for home. Thanks for the cache witchwayz!
Another good song to hummmmm.
Thanks to witchwayz and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]
All caches were found in good condition unless specified.
Joined forces with brisal5 and AnyMules for the remainder of this caching run.
Quick, easy find.

I think i did these series in the reverse order they where published. I started off on a series they was themed at ever cache and worked by way to more standard containers. All caches where found, some more quickly than others. i personally did like the thought put in to some of the containers, with matching cache listings. After the rains recently mogni was happy we where using my 4x4 not her car. We got soaked doing all these caches from the ferns that where over mogni's head ( she 5 ft 3 ) in places, to getting rained on and off all day.
Monday. I managed to get tuesday of work so today was just about getting as many caches on or near the highway between Mount Gambier and Millicent before the Farewell, Until We Meet Again ??? event. then heading in to the forests again and doing the series put out by witchwayz Colour by Song, STCL (Sadie The Cleaning Lady), This One Is For.... plus what ever other caches where near them. Then finishing the day off with a nice wood oven pizza and of course a few lab caches in mount gambier.

Sadly my mum no longer with me but she was the greatest to me. Found with LíB and friends . TFTC
SA Mega weekend with sir_spectre, a huge weekend of catchups and hunting geocaches. At different times over the 5 day weekend we joined up with other teams caching as either the misfits or mystery randoms depending on the numbers of people and who organised.
Unfortunately the weather was very typical of the south east and put many teams off exporing the forests and some great creative caches were only found by a few teams.
For me this was a little bit different than for others as I lived in the south east for 15 years and worked in Penola, Millicent and Mount Gambier. Strangely this also meant I kept running into people I knew each day.
Lots of wildlife seen, wombats, echidnas, snakes, kangaroos and wallabies. Luckily the snakes in particular kept leaving the paths as we were walking.
Thanks to the Mega committee for all of their hardwork organising and the many locals who have placed and maintained caches (this includes me
)

The great Geoventure 2020 tour....take 2...which is of course now in 2021 
Once again it myself and AnyMules doing things that not many sane people would attempt. [:o)]
Day 7: Time to say goodbye to a lot of friend heading home.
But there was sunshine so we changed cars and went for a drive in the car that had a kayak and a 6.4 metre ladder. 
We tackled some UNAL caches before the weather turned to very windy and raining again and it was too risky to be high in trees or out on the water. [:(!] So we went back to the digs and had lunch.
The sun came out after lunch so off we went again in search of unfound caches in the forests.
* If anything was particularly interesting then there will be a comment
Here..
otherwise we found all the caches we looked for and they were in good condition.
Only one of the three goals from last year achieved.
So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers from over fifty to single digits. That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

An enjoyable walk around the forest as part of the GeoVenture Mega weekend. Bushbashed on the way in, took the geotrail on the way out
Out on a just about perfect day for caching. Heading to the Tantanoola forest to find some of the newer caches which have gone down since we were here last. Also picking up a few odd ones on the way. TFTC

On the hunt today with goingplaces2 and enjoyed all the caches we found. There was a good variety of hides and containers. All logs were signed and each was returned to its proper place. TFTC.
We had a mixed bag today while caching with ilook4geo. We did find all that we looked for, but the caching activity was slowed down quite a lot by the rain that happened. It was an interesting time which involved cave exploring as well as plenty of walking through wet bush.
Thanks go to witchwayz for placing this cache which was fun to find.

Oh put your hands together, all together
Join in one by one
'Cause I've got to say I thank you
To the world's greatest mum
I remember oh so clearly
When I was just a little boy
How mum was there to guide me
To turn sorrow into joy
And no matter what the problem
She could always put it right
Be on call for twenty-four hours
Through every day and night
So put your hands together, all together
Join in one by one
'Cause I've got to say I thank you
To the world's greatest mum
Now here I am a grown man
With children of my own
We'll build a life together
So they'll never be alone
And they'll have their mum to guide them
Like their nana did for me
To help them help each other
Oh what a family it will be
So put your hands together, all together

I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count.
The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Apologies for the late log but we thought with so many days in a row needing a cache leaving it to when we had spare time to log them all. TFTC

Quick find on our way to do a mystery cache sort of near by....well with in 50 km is near by right? Tftc
While our daughter was visiting for the Anzac day long weekend we decided to have a BBQ lunch in this lovely native reserve and why not grab the 2 recently published caches while we were at it
This was soon spotted after waiting for a shower to pass through.
Many thanks for the hide witchwayz

Quick find with hevwalker, last one for the day. We look forward to coming back for new ones you put out in the future...... and we need to find the one that seems to be elusive to us. TFTC
I was with my Mum on our way to Mt Gambier...
I said to her there is a cache I would like to get as no-one had got in in the 2 days since publication...maybe the FTF was still available...
Arriving at GZ and finding the cache easily...
I opened the logbook in anticipation of a blank page but it was not to be...
Unbelievable, Nicko57 had been there just 15 minutes before I got there...
When I told my Mum she said "Perhaps we should not have stopped for coffee" but we needed coffee, so all good...
A cache for my Mum XX
Thanks for placing the cache for our enjoyment witchwayz

FTF and a great theme for a cache. Had to drag a pine tree off the track to get past and very happy to find a blank log. Fav point awarded in memory of my mother.
