It seams as this cache has gone missing yet again. As it is a popular cache and location I will replace it, however it might be a little while before I can get to it.
Scojohara.

No joy, like the last lot of people, I suspect it may have been removed from high muggle traffic area.
 
20-Jun-23
No one else around today... too cold lol. So I gave it a really good look. Absolutely nothing at the spot indicated. I looked all around in case some bright spark moved it elsewhere. Nope. Why do people take what isn't theirs to take??? Sorry. Looks like you need to check this one and report back if it is still here and we all need glasses. Cheers Lucy

30,992. Found with minniek and albida33 (signing either as FAM or MAF to save room and just for fun). After the last few days we dropped down to a group of 3 as Sol de lune and smittengranny went their separate ways today.

Rutherglen Mega and South Australia Trip Day 11. Today we headed out to grab our last few unfound counties in this part of South Australia, found some great D/T caches, visited Kingston and Robe, and generally cherry-picked our way around in a loop finishing back in Millicent for our last night there. This was the next find of the day, and a quick find once at GZ. Signed, replaced, then we headed off to the next one.

Thanks scojohara !!

Day 11 of our loop through Vic and SA then home.

With Sol de lune & Smittengranny heading home, it was fitzy_1965, albida33 & I who headed north to Kingston SE and back today. We signed as MAF or FAM to save room.

Our aim was to collect counties, oldies, AL’s and any interesting caches in-between. A fun day, especially the bit of 4WDing we accidentally ended up doing.

All caches were found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned.
 
16-Apr-23
Southern Autumn adventure Day 12. Post Mega South East SA trip Day 6. Two of the team from this trip have headed home, so now it is just three of us Fitzy_1965, Albida33 & MinnieK, Sole de Lune and logs were signed as FAM or similar. Our goal today was more of the high D/T tree caches and a trip to Kingston and Robe to sample the delights of the coast and a few more counties down this way. We missed out on Beachport due to time and finished with some of the remaining caches in Millicent itself before calling it a night.

Thanks for the cache scojohara

We are travelling to the Rutherglen Mega. Today we looked around Robe, pleased that yesterday's chilly wind had stopped. Then we went to Beachport and finally Millicent. SOoooo many caches here, we only did a couple.

At our caravan park, a couple recommended the walk around here, so we looked for caches and found this one. The SA coastline is certainly attractive!

TFTC scojohara for your cache Standing Like Stone that we found today. Our second day in Kingston. We were looking to grab another LGA , Robe was beckoning. Headed out this morning to Robe to spend a couple of hours exploring. We used caching as a bit of a guide. A good day.
We did complete a few caches on the road to and from Robe as well. Another LGA to add to the list.

???? Greetings from BC, Canada.

Touring Australia and New Zealand with my family. Which includes BeesKnees34, SOB_4M, AlexBN16 and 1MitchG6. We have been enjoying the beautiful landscape and visiting some awesome locations.

Stopping along the way to grab some cool caches. We targeted high favourite, old caches, different cache types and some other caches along our routes.

Thanks to all the cache owners for creating, placing and maintaining these great geocaches!

Nice quick find after visiting the Obelisk.
Thanks scojohara for the fun geocache!

TFTC great errs cool ruins and nice ocean scenery with the obelisk when u walk down from the ruins to the ocean. Travelling with some friends and got this on the way to beach port doing the robe to beach port journey
 
Quick find and love the location, having worked in all the main stream prisons (that still operate) over the past 20 years, I love a great historic jail to meander around and read all about. Not much of this old place left but that which remains is well kept. ??

Cache in excellent condition.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for us to find.

We are staying in Robe for our 10th wedding anniversary.

Cheers and Happy Hunting
