As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
Due to the number of DNF's logged I checked and the cache is MIA, muggles have stuck again.
I will endevour to replace it in a more muggle proof manner!

Looked for this with Josan08 who have already found it so we were definitely in the right place (according to josan anyway....lol) but no luck.
Our only DNF whilst finding all other Kadina caches.
Time for the owner to check this one I think.

Second DNF for us today, nup, nadda, not able to locate, even confirmed with a previous finder we were in the right place, but we just could not find it.
Nup we couldn't find it either, we know we were in the right spot, but there just wasn't anything there
Will need to be checked

For a Saturday arvo, we were surprised to find the playground empty. Geo-wife went off and located the cache and then we enjoyed our lunch in the nearby gazebo.
It seems I did exactly the same as o'cholio - spent many hours here when the kids were younger - sorry about the late log, moved house and been away.
Initially thought this may have been muggled as there was a cache-like hiding place on the next tree over. As I was walking off, I just happened to see it. TFTC.
We searched around a bit and then spotted the cache. No on around today which was opportune. TNLN. thanks DeltaEcho
Founda at 1525 hrs with muggle friends at Kadina. Thanks for bringing us here.

Satnav in the car got us to the playground ok but I must have has "seniors moment" when I put the co-ords into the gps because it wanted us to go to the other side of Kadina!!! After re-entering the correct co-ords, found the cache in a couple of minutes.
Not too many "muggles" around. Took nothing but left a rescue car.

At this cache we had to be as quiet as mice because there was about 1 and a 1/2 dozen muggles.

Quick find, then geokid convinced mum to try out one of the playground equipment items [:(!] Not a good idea [:(!] , or a good look . Anyway, she had fun! (the geokid that is!)TNLN, TFTC
Managed to position the car perfectly so the local in his front yard couldn't see me wandering the area [^]

This was extremely uncomfortable to retrieve. I felt I should have asked the neighbours if it was ok that I was virtually in their house . Found it, signed the log and scarpered, right sharpish-like .
Just realised i forgot to log this one I used to play in that playground all the time. TFTC
Had to wait for muggles to move on. Geo kids loved the playground. Took 20c and left a whistle.
Had the place all to ourselves, no muggles about. T:frog L:pen. TFTC
Morning tea behind us and an extra five hunters in toe wanting to know what there uncle is up to this time. Soon spotted by nephew 1 and left a frog. took nothing as not many swaps in cache. Thanks.
Found the cache at 4.30pm. Nice park area. No swap. SL. Thanks DeltaEcho for organising the cache and hunt.
A quick stop on our way home from a weeked away. A good chance for the Kettle kids to have one last stretch of the legs with a slide down the slippery dip before the drive home. TFTC
We couldnt get near this one earlier in the day. On our past on the way home we popped in again and luck was with us as we had the place to ourselves. Looks like the local BMX crowd like making entries and swaps.
Yep, no way we were going to get near this cache on our first visit, with the eagle eyed mum's tracking us from the moment we pulled up in the carpark. Tried again on our way home, with much more success. Hmm, we should have put on a Van Halen CD while grabbing the cache.

Found it quite quickly! A few muggles around so had to pretend we were playing hide and seek! Kids did lots of swaps.
Cache find #6 for us. A bit worried about neighbours wondering what we were doing, but didn't see them. Took light-up pen and left rubik's cube.
After driving past this park on numerous occasions over the last month, we finally remembered to dust off the GPSr and find this cache. We had the place to ourselves on a cool windy day, and spotted the box easily on approach. We think this is a safer hiding spot than the Gum-Ako cache that was very nearby. No swaps with us today, so just signed the logbook. Thanks DeltaEcho.
There was no chance of catching postie! That's for sure. Nice spot for the lads. I used to be one once, before thse cool bikes were around. Though I never owned a dragster with streamers from the handle bars...
Clear skies and our thanx to deltaecho from TeamAstro [^]
2nd find of the day ... I remember finding the first cache that was placed here,luckily this one didn't require me to play on the equipment TNLNSL Retrieved TB TFTC

Rocky Glen Grommets, on their way to Port Lincoln for Motocross Racing, called in at Jump on route to the Eyre Peninsula. Found by Grom 2 - a quick find at a great location - one we will revisit with bikes. Took photo and included a travelling bike - Grom 2 rides a Yamaha! Hoping for a FTF but were pipped unfortunately - oh well another time! Took a bouncy ball and pink bouncy ball, left a coin bracelet and an orange highlighter.
Hooray A FTF in the (sort of) local area. Thanks to other local cachers who left it for us. Great place for a cache! Just ask Gum-Nut, now 11 2/3 years.
Took Uno cards and bug. Left notepad, flower magnet and lava pen
