Found this with gridge98 on a lovely weekend away in Mount Gambier, with morgo the geo and friends. We were here this weekend to celebrate Dan's 500th Parkrun. Thanks for the cache!
Replaced this one today with [@courtneyrose_](https://coord.info/PR19YGNV) cache is all good nowThis weekend Courtneyrose_ and I headed to Mount Gambier for Morgo the Geos 500th Parkrun. Today after a CITO in the Mount, Courtneyrose_ and I headed to Port Mc before I dropped here off at the airport. I then made my way around the detoured route to Millicent before a few caches in the dark at Mount BurrThanks for the cache
Replaced the cache from the resources of the Pay Hero. Not sure if it will last. Pretty exposed.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

Left with Mogni the day before Christmas to go down to Mount Gambier for Christmas Day. Then on the 27th left for Victoria. Plan A was to go to the Ottway Rangers, complete the Geo tour in Ballarat and then head to Geelong and take the Queenscliff ferry over to Sorrento then grabbing new LGA's on route to almost the New South Wales/Victoria border and the old 2001 cache near there. Also attending a community day event, a CITO and a couple of other events as well. Then head in to the high country and come back to SA in 11 days. Things didn't go to plan. Turns out that one of my almost new tyres was defective ( side wall blown out ) and blew in the ottway ranges on a narrow road in the rainforest, Drove to Melton to stay overnight and get a new tyre there, tyre machine broken and the other 5 tyre companies not open so off to geelong for a new tyre ( and some caches on the way and in geelong ) . The event we where going to attend in geelong didn't turn out, he was late by ALOT to his own event.Then to ballarat to same day since we had a b&b booked for the next few nights. Planned on getting the ferry at 1200 and ended up on the 400 pm ferry but we did attend a event and CITO in geelong. Then we drive into the rear end of a thunder storm with forecast 20 mm dropping for the next few days. Cancel the high country and change targets to letterbox D/T for fizzy grid only using letterboxes and same wirh the multi fizzy grid plus fizzy grid only using victorian caches plus any challenge caches we where near. Plus getting a few more victorian 2001 caches. And finally any caches that had 40 more more favourite points. Only got soaked to the bone for a couple of days but the water on the tracks was noticeable. On the return home tried to get the rest of the missing LGA's around the Melbourne CBD i missed in the last mega. Still a fun trip was had if not the planned one.

On a Christmas Holiday with sir_spectre, visiting family in Mount Gambier and then on to Victoria to visit some new places as well as some old haunts.

Mount Gambier staying at the showground Day3
This is a wonderful town that we have visited before, but we are still amazed at what the town has to offer.
Today we travelled around the outskirts of town caching as we explored the area.
Thanks for placing your cache.

Had a very quick and easy find here today.
Brand new note book noted… strange that there is no log mention of it.
Also need to report that the troll is leaking… he’s hemorrhaging white powdery substance everywhere.
We hope it is salt used as ballast, not something more sinister!!!
We also like to mention that we felt that we could be easily seen from all four directions, so some stealth definitely required.
Though we did like the quaint little bridge, worthy of a cache.
TFTC … only one troll here today, the cache guardian

The container seems to be taken away from spot and nothing is inside, might need some maintenance

The park was looking a bit scorched today, but we're sure a change in season would cure that .
Quickly found . TNLNSL.
Stopped here for a late morning lunch before continuing on [^].
Thanks for one more Blamik.

Day 2 of a short stay in Millicent. Gwen from The X-Trailers spotted the likely hidey hole from 30m away.
Gwen said ewwww as she grabbed the cache
Just missing earthlight who couldn't be with us at this time.

SL at 9:45am. Daytrip out with oh just myself for a change! Nice spot however I do think that this particular troll should be made of stone aswell so it doesn't drain away which is what it is currently doing! TFTC!
Found with hevwalker after celebrating with GoShaz at her event. A quick find...... Trolls need to remember to take care or they can have gizzards leaking out everywhere when coming out to say hi. TFTC
Doing a bit of caching with scramping after this evening's event.
A quick find. Well aware of the troll here now.
