Ah, that explains why I couldn't find it!
Enjoyed the architecture at any rate [^]

An early morning start for Rocky Glen Grommets and crane2 - didn't want to meet a congregation of muggles! Good hide.
A quick little jaunt around town. This one was interrupted by the "the first in town" so we completed this one before this. It all seemed to make sense.
Great final locale where we met a lady who was preparing the flowers for a funeral the next day. I regret not taking more time to talk with the old dear. [8)] Rushing around doing caches in the heat does affect your brain. If you come across a dear old soul when you arrive at this GZ, please make up for Astro. I think she really just wanted a chat.
I'd just played the caching pump http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=w9iVWoIUM40 so I can understand that the cache adrenaline levels were too too high.
Our thanx to Gypsycacher from TeamAstro. [^]
maintenance checked.
In light of Rabbitto's log this cache may be relocated a short distance away shortly.

Found this along with Liz & Bruce
Lovely church and very clean outside too
Thanks Gypsycacher

Drove up with Liz and Bruce and Skippy, and they nominated me to do the retrieval, but gave me some shonky instructions that had me looking in the wrong place. When I exceeded the allowed 3 second search time Bruce jumped out of the car and grabbed the cache in a flash. Why didn't they tell me it was there in the first place?
Did the calculations but didn't believe the GZ was that far away so gave up today. Will come back another time.

Worked out the WP1 & 2 easy enough, but our GPS had us 10m out at GZ today .
Acted on a hunch and quickly had the cache in hand after looking elsewhere first.

A nice easy multi to continue our night caching in Loxton. Could've just used the in-car navigator to find the churches but ended up doing it the 'right' way instead. TFTC.
Cache find #31 of 46 in our Mallee Odyssey!
The 3rd multi in a row, in a short space too!
Thanks for the tour.
We ended up about 15m from the actual cache, and didn't look there for ages, as it is where it is!
Was about to give up and thought.... "What if it's there, matches the hint" and wht do ya know? voila!

A nice easy multi...done with doheng on a caching day in Loxton. TFTC.
We found our 13th Gypsycacher cache at 3:00pm as the 15th of 16 on our Loxton Lark with Bazzars and J&J. We had been showing J&J the ropes of geocaching today and there had been a lot of talk on the rules. One thing that we kept going over is the no caches on private property without permission rule. We came to an embarassing ending on this cache when we found that not only this one is, but J was fairly well involved with the place in subject. Although fairly open for the public to walk through, it is technically private land. He does not believe that there would be any problem and the cache is certainly non harmful and it is great to attract people to this place, but it may pay to obtain the formal ok and list as such on the cache page. Thanks for the cache from D & A B-A.
In the area on a houseboat holiday. Called in to Loxton and couldn't resist doing a cache or two. Interesting benches next to the church. TFTC
'What do we need in Loxton?'
'Buckets'
'Time for a cache or two?'
'Of course!'
Interestingly enough, one of the churches involved in this cache shares it's name with the family church in Nuri. Maybe I should place a similar cache there...

TFTC, Make sure you get out of the car to read the plaque of your could get the wrong info, like we did. Sunday afternoon was band practise, I'm not sure how we would have explained our presents if we were muggled. Louise & Jessica
Nice little multi, and what a great bit of architecture at the final loc [^]. Retrieved the cache after really reading the hint . Our GZ was about 10m out from the actual location. Managed to put it back just before a workman came in view.
I had a couple of goes at this over the weekend, but as Parrothead said, there was always someone weeding, dropping in flowers or simply playing! Found more by applying logic than following the coordinates, but a find is a find. Find #189.
Yippee That means I get bronze.
They are some nice structures.
At GZ a car was parked very close to the cache. I sure would have had a lot of explaining to do if anyone had approached.

Have to admit we drove everywhere, even between WP2 and GZ!! Why walk when you can drive? Its good to get a drive around the back streets of an unfamiliar town, you never do that when you're just passing through. Thanks.
enjoyed this multi[maybe cause we drove to each spot]
just realised we were joint silver finders!

*FTF* Fourth of five FTF's for today. I left this one until after lunch as Sunday morning is not the best time to go geocaching around churches! Was pleasantly surprised none of the local teams had found the cache. As we approached GZ radio 5RM started playing My Sweet Lord by George Harrison, so to the sounds of My Sweet Lord, we logged our find and replaced the cache. TFTC gypsycacher.
