Warm day out caching with Wal and Ol. Nice one, fave, TFTC!

Hot day out with Pony1966.Much prefer this to the last maze TFTC

Great cache container, there was a nearby dead sheep putting out a funky smell. TFTC

Found with Jamesta18 today while adventuring in the area. We havent been here before. Surprising as we are always in Eden Valley territory 7km down the rd and here we are in Mount Pleasant Very pleasant lol Cool container and concept SL TFTC Dead sheep smell not so cool ha ha

In the area today to clean up a few missed caches from other trips, cache and log in good order. what a clever cache, it took me a minute or two to figure out how to open it, cute. TYFTC

After a visit to family we had some daylight to find a cache or two, cute findTFTC

It was time for another drive in the country and the hills with Doctor Owl searching for never ending caches. We had targeted a few of the Jigidis along with others that we both hadn't found. I was really feeling my age at times along with my wonky foot and knee, but I made it to most of the caches even if very slowly (my balance is not too good in bush settings). Another fun day with a lovely meal at the Eden Valley pub along with a return visit for coffee on the way home. We encountered flies and ants, rabbits and a sleepy lizard, but thankfully no snakes. An interesting container that didn't take too long to open. I hadn't seen one like this before. A favourite for me.Thanks for the cache AlliedOz.

Two old birds with dodgy knees (Owl and JJ52) headed out for a nice leisurely drive in the country that just happened to pass lots of caches. As before jigidis were the target, but there was also maintenance to be done, ants and flies to dodge, a lovely pub meal and later coffee to be consumed in Eden Valley and the usual convivial conversation to enjoy. This was an unexpected find. The cache was found soon enough, but how to open it? Owl's initial assumptions were proved to be incorrect and a far more elegant solution then presented itself. Nice work!

Great container! TFTC

So cool

A lovely simple cache to find and open.I spent the night in Nuriootpa with good friends. Today I was heading home so I decided to start my Cosmic Quest Souvenir Journey. I managed to find 20 caches which will give me the first one.TFTC AlliedOz

Heading out for the day with Cheezel1961 with his trusty steed. Targeting caches in and around Swan Reach.This being one of them.Easy find hereLove the 3D printing and the puzzle.FP4U TFTC SL

Very cool container for this one. Worked out how to open by accident! Tftc!

Today after a late start to the day I got as far as Walker Flat for the night but still managed to get 20 caches for the day before setting up camp for the night.Great container took a few goes to work it out but fun in the end.TFTC AlliedOz

Staying at Mt Pleasant cp. the Saturday markets only about 150m from van. We indulged in breakfast & purchased a couple of things. This afternoon muggle husband thought wed do a little geocaching to fill in the time. This puzzle camo was easier to open. We enjoyed the drive. Must come this way again in spring. Tftc

Today out and about on 68 of 100 days of consecutive days caching with a minimum of physical one a day. Using my Garmin Etrex 22X and MacBook Air!Thanks for the cache.TFTC

TFTC!

That is one interesting container. Some people might say that it is magic. I am pretty sure that they are correct.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.

There are three of these 0011 1101 caches - or at least there are three here. I should have set up a filter and hunted the rest of the map.So after losing a favourite at the Amazing cache I was really looking forward to the other two here.Like the CO says, this is really satisfying - mesmerising, even - to watch. Open. Close. Open. Close. Open... maybe I should actually sign the log book. Sign the logbook, replace the log book. Close. Open. Close. Open. Close.Loved it. Fave.---Greetings from New Zealand!It's the last day of my Mega holiday in Australia. Mostly, so far, it has been about the numbers, today it is about quality. Skuzzy Bear gave me a overly ambitious list of 130 caches to visit, all good ones, apparently. So they were the only ones I looked at today. Lord knows how many I just drove past! on the long route out to Murray Bridge. Only found sixteen caches, but probably dropped 10 favourites, my biggest favourite drop day to date. There are some seriously cool caches out there!

An interesting container. Fav point from me. Thanks AlliedOz.

Found by Mary and David at 15:23. Not talking about roses. A FP for the unusual puzzle container. Many suggestions from M, not all of them polite. Our thanks to AlliedOz.

A quick stop and find here today on my way past, cache is all good.Today with an event in the hills, I headed out for a half days walking plus a few others yet to be found in the area. With the weather being mild for a summers day it made for a great day out.Thanks for the cache

Another awesome cache.Geokids did the work. Mum and Dad got to look after the kids solved it.Another FP for you.TFTC AlliedOz.

Found it eventually with Waldos andClivejazzy1

No. 4 for the year. TFTC

Caching from Perth to Canberra via the Nullarbor. TFTC. An awesome cache container. Excellent.

Tftc It's our 300 cache find and what better view and day Tsls

TFTC. #300 with Happylife72.

Another great cache. Love the investment in the game. Tftc

From tumby bay on my way to cairns stopped with my geosister for a couple of days first and she picked some of her favourites for me to go find. Came across this one and when I looked at it I thought oh no how do I open this. Easy then I first thought. Great cache TFTC

I stopped in Mt Pleasant for a quick bite to eat and a couple of caches. I spotted this group of three caches with lots of favourite points so I thought I would visit them and see for myself. All three caches were different and the field puzzles were lots of fun. All received favourite points from me. Thanks for the cache AlliedOz.# # #13517 # #

An unpleasant medical appointment in nearby Mount Pleasant made a lot more pleasant thanks to this cute cache!...a favourite!

Certainly any other flower by name would surely smell as sweet. A fun container. TFTC

Out for a drive, love the backroads in the hills!
Cool container.
Dropped a traveller in the nice country air for the next to move along.
Thanks

A quick grab as we drove down the road.

TFTC and greetings from Tassie and have another favourite point for the psychedelic hide

Found it and opened it! Very cool container. The description helped
Signed log and left a few necklaces.

Having spent the day out in the mallee I thought I'd call past and find a few caches on my way home. Quick find here. A little puzzled at first but managed to open the cache carefully to access the log. Thanks for the cache AlliedOz!

Saw this one come out this morning... not the best timing for me! Sometimes work gets in the way...
But as it happens I'm in Mt Pleasant a lot in the evenings this week, setting up the tech for Top of the Torrens Theatre Group's 25th Birthday Show.
(It's on the 1st and 2nd of July - check Facebook for tickets!)
After locking the local hall, went for a quick drive and signed off for the final podium bronze place.
A bloomin' special cache indeed. Just sheltered from the pouring rain, and well constructed.
A nice twist in fact
Will give it a fav for not involving any mint tins

Many thanks for the cache hide and ongoing care and maintenance AlliedOz .

Country, Coffee, Cats, Champagne, Chocolate, and Caching...
Careful caching as always with Jack helping, wherever we go.
It's a dangerous world filled with rusty old mint tins and objects falling from trees
...... but a cache a day still keeps the boredom away

--------

Most of our caches are logged using the resources of gsak, garmin, and androids, occasionally AI too! (And a little rubber stamp )

----------
Make sure that Travel Bugs are the Only bugs you share and pass on (Covid cancels caching!)
Keep a safe distance - clean and cache the countryside


It's awesome of all those placing quality caches out and about around our country areas,
in sensible safe places and containers especially! - it keeps our game fun, and interesting

Of course we do appreciate if you actually did read all this extra addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere out there, or so we've been told! You win a virtual smiley for the effort and getting to the end of the log Maybe if I worked out where it is I could do it and go back to normal logs again ! If you find the challenge let me know and perhaps we can put an end to these long logs !!!

[:o)]


The end. For now...


... until next time!

Published

*FTF* @ about 10:50 (I think I guessed 11:00 for the log)

This cache was one of several published around 8am this morning while some of were dragging out the Solstice Breakfast Event. All the contenders seemed too far away, and the weather was foul. We continued chatting.

I went about my business which included finding a multi in the city and some non-geocaching chores. I get to Gumeracha after 10am, there’s a break in the weather, and the cache still hasn’t been found. So off I go.

No difficulty finding the cache, and even the outer shell was dry despite todays weather. I haven’t seen one of these field puzzles before. Took me a while to work out what to do, but eventually I was in.

I must have just missed ttrogg and SA Sewer Rats, and apologies for the tardy log, but there is not much Vodaphone coverage after Gumeracha.

AlliedOz, you are turning this road into a field puzzle power trail! Keep it up! A FP from me.

Silver with the Rat at 1107

The Rat and ttrogg decided to brave the weather today.
We checked the cache for logs and set off for a possible FTF.
A quick find at GZ.
The cache was something I have not seen before.
The Rat gently opened the cache.
We looked in the log book , and discovered that Otter61 had just beaten us for FTF.
A fave point for the field puzzle. Tftc
