I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

Once more a menagerie of animals from the Puzzled Puzzlers set out on our weekly Wednesday Wanderings. Unfortunately the Starfish was not well so he was with us in thoughts and not in person. The KORF as the chauffeur for the day the plan was to pick up a few DNF's and numerous others that still required smiling faces on the map. A couple of DNF's turned to smileys and a few more DNF's added to the list.

No luck for us here. The hint gave a good description of what we were seeking but nothing. Seems this one has gone Sad

Geocaching has taken me on many adventures over the years all over Australia and overseas. It has also introduced me to a brilliant and diverse group of people, many of whom are now close friends.
Today I was lucky enough to be out and about with some of those friends and we targeted this cache.
Sorry for the late log, but thanks for adding to the adventure!

Thanks Gum-Ako for placing this cache.

Today Gary and I travelled from Moonta back to Burra and then to Adelaide! Some of the cache hides were easy, others were more challenging, but overall we enjoyed yet another wonderful day with fantastic weather.

Thanks for the cache Gum-Ako Smile
------------------------------------------

Woo hoo, the lovely Micaparamedic and I decided we would attend the June Long Weekend Event in South Australia (Edithburgh) and make the most of a road trip to the glorious Yorke Peninsula by spending a week away - NICE! [^] Cool

We particularly enjoyed exploring Innes National Park and focussing on the new earth caches on the YP and in Burra.
 
10-Apr-17
Caching my way from Adelaide to Alice Springs via Uluru for the Red Centre Experience event. Today was day one and that meant Adelaide to Port Augusta after work. With the goals I've set myself earlier in the year, I've focused almost exclusively on older (2009 and earlier) cache hides.

You're right, I didn't need one. Good coords put me right at GZ where the cache hide revealed itself.

This was find number 2 of 10 for the night for me. TFTC Gum-Ako!

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Nearing my destination but needed a break so saw this one on the map so decided that this was the place. pulled over safely, wandered to GZ and made a quick find, signed log and replaced with a little more cover over the cache as it was completely uncovered.

Out with Aussie M & M on a mid north caching adventure.
Thanks
 
30-Sep-13
A bout of Mondayitis inspired Mr M to go caching with Mrs M and a visiting Mogni. A trip to the Mid North was hastily planned. Snowtown recorded the highest windgust in 8 years... and we were probably retrieving a cache at that time. A great day was had despite the weather.

No number. It wasn't what we were expecting as we couldn't see much lined up. TFTC Gum-Ako.

After setting up camp, we headed out to do the SWF trail. A great morning travelling the outback roads, the paddocks look a treat dressed in green & gold.
This cache was quickly found, a little damp & we could not locate the number.

Firstly I need to apologise for the largely generic log.

A friend was in town and wanted a trip north, I had some leave so a short road trip was thought to be a good idea. As we are both cachers, a few caches were definitely in order. We cached on four of the five days away. The last day we needed to get back to town so we had to use discipline and drove past all of the caches on the way home.

Day one. Adelaide to Port Augusta. 26 finds, 1 DNF.
Day two. Port Augusta to Coober Pedy. 10 finds, 1 DNF.
Day Three. Coober Pedy. 8 finds and Ill see what happens with the Earth Cache.
Day Four. Coober Pedy to Woomera, Roxby Downs and Andamooka. 9 finds. Left a lot for next time.
Day Five. Straight back to Adelaide. No caching.

All in all a fun trip that was more than just caching but caching was a fun part of the trip.
