Have been in Victoria doing maintenance. This one and another are on our list for this week, this should be a simple replacement of hide here. Thanks for your patience.
I had some doubt as to whether this is currently in the right spot or not; can’t be sure so left it where found. A bit surprised to Grant Burge’s mum and dad very close by. TFTC.
I was booked into some Barossa accomodation for the weekend as I had a ticket for the ‘rescheduled’ Red Hot Summer Tour @ Seppeltsfield but alas, due to COVID it was ‘rescheduled’ again, March 2022! Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to have a relaxing weekend doing some geocaching and any DNF’s, I’ll be back to try and get you before 2022!

Came go see where they scatter the ahes of cremated souls from the women and childrens hospital. Amazing place. Tranquil, peaceful, apart from the traffic. Tftc
With the hint, this became a straightforward find. Found after grabbing some lavender and tempted by a helicopter ride. Tftc.
Doing a near by trail stopped to find this one log and container in good condition Thanks M & M for the hide
We came here today to bless my mother in laws grave, it was nice to have a cache to do too.TFTC
This cache has had owner maintenance today. The temporary cache was replaced with a camo'd small container with new log book and swag.
Should be all good for some time to come. Thanks to the 2ystassies for doing the temporary fix for us just yesterday.

Today we headed north from where we are staying to look for caches along the Jack Bobridge Trail. Along the way we looked at some nearby caches. This was one of them.
This cache was a quick find. However the cache container didn't have a lid and it was stuffed with paper. It was in need of TLC. So we replaced the cache container with a new one and provided a new logbook which should suffice for the near future. Thanks DustyandDizz for this cache and for bringing us to this peaceful and historical location.

A quick find - had to add a new piece of paper for the log. Container probably needs replacing but we didn't have anything with us. TFTC

A quick stop off whilst doing the trail, The log in the cache has seen better days.
A late plan made on Thursday night when attending the Cache in trash out event. Todays plan was to complete some of the Jack Bobridge Trail with David wazz and Jess Wrigley, although the heat was touching on 40 degrees still a great day, with a wine tasting along the way and 2nd loop of D/T grid now complete.

Although it was a stinking 40°C hot day, we wanted to use some of it for some outdoors geocaching, and so [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T), [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) and I made a plan to head north to Gawler and Lyndoch, and completed a section of the Jack Bobridge cycling trail, calling into a winery along our way. On the return back to Adelaide, we called past a strategic cache for [@gridge98](http://coord.info/PRGKDMY) to complete his second D/T loop.
We rode the trail at Lyndoch from Cache #42 to Rowland Flat at Cache #58, stopping off at a winery halfway. We made a small detour off the trail to visit this cemetery. Initially I shuddered at wondering where this cache could be in the big pine tree, but then spotted the cache quickly. May need some TLC with the logbook a little scrappy, but otherwise all good, thanks.

Walked through, noting some of the headstone inscriptions. The cache is worse for wear, the lid hardly holds on and the log is a bit tattered. Dry though, surprisingly! Tftc
Here for the orienteering and found with Tramper Ted. I missed the obvious and we spent more time looking for this one than we should have. Thanks for bringing us to this historic place and greetings from New Zealand.
We are nomads. Having left Perth WA in February 2014 we now live in our caravan and go wherever the will or caches take us.
Now camped in Tanunda. Today the GeoCruiser was booked into Toyota. So what does any Geoaddict do when they have no 4x4, come rain, wind and freezing temperatures? .... they jump on the GeoBike of course.
Found the cache today whilst completing the Jack Bobridge trail. Thanks for sharing the history.

Found while out on a beautiful day looking for caches in the Sandy Creek and Lyndock area.
This one needs a fresh log.

Rode the JB trail with the geowife finding the well hidden caches on this trail. Easy find in a very picaresque cemetery full of flowers. Signed log
Out and about with Gordon Patrick Samuel doing a few caches to get my 1000 for the year and learning about the area and generic logs,tftc.
Found it with TK2 on a day caching in the southern end of the Barossa Valley.
What horror the early settlers must have endured in losing their children so young. Replaced the cache a little better than we found it.
Thank you postiegirl06 for sharing this area with us.

Another sunny day to tackle the Jack Bobridge trail. Looked high looked low and in non obvious places but no smiley today. Lovey spot
After parking the car further up the road, re-assembling my bike for another ride, I made this one first before getting back to the Power Trail [^] There were Muggles in the graveyard and a Ford Hurst with it's bonnet up and an RAA van parked behind it. (The FORD had come to lay to rest in the Grave Yard... sorry FORD fans, I found it so amusing ) I wandered over to GZ to lay any chance of a DNF to rest and SL of this well hidden cache [^] at 12:58 on Fri. 5 May, 2017. All within the cache is doing well and is dry [^] TFTC potiegirl06
Great ride with Pony1966, enjoying the fab weather, beautuful scenery and a spectacular variety of hides. We do love a cemetery hide! TFTC
Apty found this one years ago, and suggested it would be a good one for me to find, being in the area after a nice lunch at Lou Miranda's where Apty's son works.
Lots of historic names here.
Had to use Spidey Sense to make the find, as my GPS was drunk. Found it in the most likely place [^]

Peaceful place and lots of history. Cache was on the ground so replaced. Log sheet is slightly damaged
TFTC. Found it lying on the ground so replaced it back in a more secure and safe spot. The log sheet is a bit in tatters so perhaps this may need replacing. Such interesting history. Thanks.
