Description

J & J's thirty-eighth geocache hide. A bloody nano in a high traffic area.

 

 


 

The current Summer Scavenger Series hosted on GCA, called for the hiding of a nano cache.

Normally we'd be totally against hiding such a heinous sort of cache container, but we've had a spare nano stuck to the side of the computer since April 2010. It was about time that nano became a geocache once again!  *

The question now was, where to hide it?

This cache was originally hidden at a busy suburban setting along South Road, but has since been moved to a more rural location.

 


 

You are looking for a silver nano container close to a business** that might have a familiar sounding name. Please access this cache while travelling in a southerly direction as crossing the Victor Harbor road can be dangerous at the best of times.

 

Happy hunting!

 


 

* The nano container used to belong to 'One for the Birds', until I was forced to take the cache home with me. I wanted to mail the cache back to the owner, but all offers were politely declined.

**J & J geocaching are in no way affiliated with J & J Vineyards, and do not endorse the cunsumption of alcohol, much.

With no sign of a new J & J office re-opening in the suburbs, this nano cache is now residing right next to the vineyards owned by J & J.

J & J have flown the coop!

Mrs J noticed a couple of weeks ago that the nearby business no longer has any J & J signage, and we don't know where they've gone.

We called past today and collected the cache container, and will re-hide somewhere else soon. Most probably this cache will re-appear at the J & J vineyards down near McLaren Vale.

Staying in Adelaide for a week we have been focusing on finding some GCA caches and this was one of them. Have driven around the outskirts of Adelaide on previous visits to SA so nice to stop this time and let geocaching be our guide.

Easy find once at GZ, cache and contents are in good condition. Thanks J_&_J for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Passed this way heading south and stopped nearby. A short walk back to GZ was awarded with a nice quick find Mr. Green
This is a label that I must admit I have never seen before Surprised
Cheers & TFTC J & J

Whilst there was quite a deal of traffic on South Road, there was surprisingly little activity at the commercial premises making for an easy search. Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks J_&_J for the cache (especially given the dislike of nanos, a feeling we share).

Found It!
A slight detour here on my way to locus cache's NYE event. I arrived to find some roadworks getting setup nearby - it feels rather suss looking around when every car is driving past at only 30km/h! But after a bit of poking around I found the little nano and got FTF! Last physical cache find for 2016 to - always good to end with a FTF!
