Meaning to take Cornishman's Hill Pass Road, I couldn't resist grabbing this one so close. Found at 12:13 on Sun 16 July 2017. The contents are good and dry bar the log book being slightly damp so I added some moisture-munchers to hopefully reverse that Big Grin. TFTC The Silver Snitch Smile

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Had a post lunchtime meeting nearby and left the office at the beginning of lunch so had a few moments to detour in and get cache for the day. Drove in and parked nearby, wandered to GZ and made the find rather quickly as the cache was completely exposed. Signed log and replaced with a little more natural camo. Still easy for cachers to find though.
Disappointed that I could not get there at night. Can see it would be a spectacular view.

A nice quick find today after a previous DNF earlier this year. No christmas light were seen here today, and Mrs J was back in the car, so I had no-one to pass the cache to. So I just re-hid it and moved on.

Thanks The Silver Snitch.

25-Jul-14
Still leisurely touring South Australia after the Mega

Still currently camped at Mt Crawford forest we awoke to being blanketed in fog. Surprised

By 11.00am there was no sign of it lifting so we decided we didn't really want to cache in it, so we headed off to run some errands and to target a cache for our D/T Matrix.

Of course we couldn't help ourselves and managed to grab quite a few others in a very scenic part of the Adelaide hills.

Found today (sorry accidently logged the 9th on paper!) on a chilly winters evening. No lights tonight but they'll be here before we know it. I have visited these light displays almost every year since they began and they are fantastic. Will make sure I go back again this year and think of the cache here:) Thanks for the hunt - and ho ho ho. Do you think Santa will bring me a new geomobile this year???

19-Dec-13
In Adelaide for a Christmas catch-up with friends and do some caching.... Brisal5 took me on a slight detour to do some Christmas Shopping. Couldn't believe the lights we could see, mainly blue and red.
Thanks
 
19-Dec-13
My caching buddy mogni was in town and we both had some Christmas Shopping to do. So it was off to TTP. Shopping done it was time to get the last two Goths Anniversay series out the way, only stopping for a few other caches along the way. Cool

The christmas lights were all on CFS trucks fighting a nearby fire. How did you arrange that [?] We stopped and couldn't believe it. A caravan was camped about 50 metres from GZ. So we crept in, used the hint, found the cache Smile and crept away. Thanks The Silver Snitch. Big Grin

We had a bit of time to spare before heading to the nearby 'FLASH MOB - Caching in Space' event so attempts at some local caches was just the go.

A nice, quick find after meeting Crispy89 in the parking bay. We will try to remember to return in a few weeks to see the Xmas lights Big Grin

Many thanks for the hide The Silver Snitch [^]

2523. Plans were made to do this one last night, but the food, drinks and company at the local changed that and the lure of the night cache out in the scrub took over, although no positive result occurred.
So I returned today in daylight to grab the smiley. TFTC.

A great family day out today as we had to go to a scout camp, we decided to spend the day caching our way up there. The day saw us get our individual 100th caches and our sister got her 200th cache, other sister got her 100th cache. We saw the chocolate factory and big rocking horse and finally got to camp in time for mum to hurt herself. Thankyou for the cache, we had a great day out.

What better night to do this cache on than Christmas Eve? [?]

I have known this cache was here for a long time now but wanted to keep it until the season was right and tonight was the night! Big GrinCool
I still needed my daily cache as I had stopped at two other caches on my way home from work and both were DNF's so I was exceedingly glad to finally get a cache today Big Grin

Merry Christmas to all and especially to the family who placed this cache so that others can share in the joy of the lights! Smile
