We had intended to stay another day in Spalding and do some more of the channel caches but the weather was nasty and the wind bitter so we packed up and headed for Melrose instead. We had a bit of a tour around Boolero Centre along the way. Lots going on here today but nothing to get in our way.
Thanks for contributing to our holiday Freddo

Any cache on a piece of machinery can cause problems and I have battled nanos on tractors and guns. Fortunately this is not a nano and this piece of machinery is not too complex. It did not take too long to locate the little devil.

This weekend, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I headed to Melrose for mountain biking the trails with a few non-geocaching friends. We ended up hiking up to Mount Remarkable on Sunday, and on Monday, we returned to home via Booleroo Centre, Jamestown, and Clare. The weekend had some rain drizzle and crisp mornings, but otherwise good weather for fitness.

Today, we had a morning Melrose mountain biking session, before starting to drive back to Adelaide. We had some time to fill, so ended up taking the long route via Booleroo Centre, Hornsdale, and Jamestown, to then arrive at Clare for an afternoon tea/coffee event. It was then an expedited drive via Gawler.

This took a few minutes to find this cache, hidden nicely with a very strong magnet indeed! The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks [@Freddo](http://coord.info/PR8C14) and Thomas for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Took Mogni for a trip to the Flinders Rangers for the long weekend with extra day either side. The target for the trip was to clear some of the " used to be a church " micro series on the way up and on the back as well, complete a couple of station tracks plus hike to Blinman Pools. We where not expecting a couple of 34 degree days then a 30 km wind dust storm followed by rain over night and then the wilpenda pound walls covered in fog for the next 1/2 a day. It did change our plans a little and the order we did things. All containers we found damaged, broken, cracked were replaced and were possible ( if not soaked ) original log books were kept. Any log books found full were replaced or if room had extra scrolls added in to the cache.

A long weekend away with sir_spectre in the Flinders Ranges. We had each been here before and strangely had few double ups so some revisiting was in order to try to get our maps similar. The weather threw everything at us but we just made our plans suit the conditions. Lots of 4WD and walks included.
Thanks to Freddo from mogni Smile

After a lovely night at the camp site (great facilities for tent campers) but a crap game of footy (if you are a Pies fan) it was up and ready for a day of caching in the Orroroo surrounds.
We travelled all over the countryside and had a fantastic day. We did an epic multi, visited lots of abandoned structures with heaps of history, saw lots of Orroroo masters games venues and called in at the pub in Pekina for a beer. Great day of country fun, punctuated with some super finds. Love a good day of SA country caching.
It started off very cold this morning with low lying clouds meaning we were in fog for the first couple of hours. Once this burnt off it was a superb winters day, sunny and warm. We saw lots of sheep, roos, wallabies, goats and an echidna which was cool. Rex had a brilliant day and was absolutely shattered by the time we got back to the campsite.
Footy was on so parked nearby, hopped the gate and quickly found the cache. Nobody took a blind bit of notice. Then we went back into town and had a picnic lunch. The busiest place in this town after the footy is the ANZ ATM. A zillion folk at the football today. Nice hide TFTC Freddo and Thomas

What can we say - this looks like a steel re-creation from a computer game Razz - or should that be the other way around [?].
