Haven't found a suitable spot to try again with this cache so will archive it in case another cacher wants to put one near here.

Well so much for 9 months 9 weeks might be closer as it is gone again [:(!][:(!]
Will have to assess the area for a better hiding spot.

Went to find this one just before lunch, but there was a birthday party about to begin, spotted it from a distance, so decided to come back later. Went back at about 7pm, only to find that what I had seen, was gone. Hope this isn't true and I was having a mans look!

Have replaced this cache , hopefully it will last at least another nine months.

Cache appears to be missing , will try and replace it soon.

if this cache is supposed to be under the bridge near the top bbq area then it must have been muggled cos there's nothing under the bridge

No joy with this one todayOur fourth DNF in a row, but I can now see the others are archived, (billy's Boston views,Taint Thomas, Osterholt Park)so we gave up looking in Port Lincoln

Not so hard it seems but we couldn't find it, then we were invaded by muggles so couldn't continue

Went to visit this cache to drop off a Geocoin as it is close to home, however we could not find it. Did I have a blokes look or has it been muggled?

dropped in today with new cachers "daracs" and while there I dropped off "mr moose" travel bug, which we picked up recently at mount gambier.He wants to explore grassy areas all around the world. b*ds

found after a brief search TNLN TFTC

No 4 for today, also popular cache today
Picked up Mr Moose,who had a very brief stay
Otherwise TNLN. TFTC

What lovely park! Good hiding spot. Kids were more interested in playground, but eventually came and found the cache. No swaps. TFTC

Nice stroll in the park, bit of stratching around. Took toy car, left scary lizard!!!

Great spot, whole family got involved. Travel bug insitu, will help to resume journey

thanks for taking us to a lovely park tnlnsl cheers

What a nice place for a picnic! I have never been up this end of the park in a long time, last time I was here it was all overgrown and choked with weeds.
Great location for a cache, easy to find but you wouldn't have known it was there if you didn't have a GPS postition to guide you!
Michael and Anele.

Second time lucky. Swapped cocky for dinosaur.

It's great when you got kids that will get down low and found the cache for you. . after a big meal at the pub with the other cachers in Pt lincoln we decieded to grab more caches while all the muggles are in bed.
Thanks diesel69

9:21 pm - Well, The Suthies are on their way with their 1st Cache find. We wish you well in the world of caching, as we have found this new sport to be very beneficial. We have met many teams now, including Diesel69, Mr Walker, jim&chris, Skippy&Lambchops with Miniskip, whom we enjoyed a lovely dinner with at the Northern Hotel tonight. We will be back in Lincoln soon.
Took: strap Left: light

Thanks Barramundis and Skippy for your help.

Jim and Chris

Good to be back. Great spot for picnics. Took Maseme TB, Left Snowman ( of course)If you are looking for Diesel himself we found him loading Pillys at the wharf!!!!!! TFTC

Added a colourful slinky while in Lincoln. Much quieter in the park today.

Always trust your GPS, as the old song goes. Just remind me not to go looking for this cache at lunch time on a beautiful Autumnal Sunday. Couldn't even get a car park, the place was so full of picnickers and family groups, about 20 of whom were using the nearby BBQ area. Visited some family of my own and came back later.When coords brought me to the same place as Friday, I decided to trust my GPS ,and yes I was within 30cm of it. Extracting the cache was another matter, but worked it out just in time to avoid another group of kids coming through the park. Took one of the Travel bugs but could'nt help the other so,logged,it and left it. Had some swaps, but when I heard the kids coming I rushed to put the cache back and forgot to put anything in. Will put something in it to match the quality of the original contents next time i am in Lincoln.

Wouldn't like you to think I wasn't looking, Diesel. Saw this when I got back from Adelaide, but was just too exhausted to drive any more. Then Wed. and Thurs. evenings i had other commitments, so i raced down Friday night. Got to the GZ to find a very nice Grandmother and two boys having chips at the table. I scouted around, pretending to be looking for a survey peg and eventually they left. By now it was getting late ,and i was supposed to be already back in Tumby having tea with my wife. I checked out all the obvious places, and a few of the less obvious ones without finding anything except a lot of ants and rubbish. THe lock was so bad that I lost satellite reception a couple of times, but i think i was in the right general area. Don't know if we are coming down to Lincoln this weekend, but if so I will have another look. I'll also have a go at your one at Sleaford asap.Thanks for a couple of new caches.

Starting two new TBs here.
