Thanks Margieh for placing this cache and for the ongoing maintenance. Find #10848 on 9/11/2024 at 4:15PMThree of us headed north to collect a few smileys. Our target was the BigQ and also collect anything else we found along the way. Signed logs as TOAD (Team Ozgrumpy Astro doineedthis).

Last night fitzy_1965 and I stayed at the Wilmington Hotel. Old facilities but new air con was a winner! And honest locals as we realised in the morning that we had left the car keys on the dashboard last night!Our plan today was to collect oldies & counties and whatever inbetween whilst making our way back to my cousin's house for a family dinner.All caches found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned. This was one of them.

34,313. Found with minniek during our trip to The Great Leap Forward Mega Event in Adelaide on 29th February 2024.Day 4 : After staying overnight at the Wilmington Pub, we headed out hunting for more Counties, oldies and other interesting caches. We do enjoy meandering around the countryside doing this. Hopefully we will cross off a bunch more South Australian Counties today. Lots of great caches to choose from as well. This was the next cache - and it was a quick find once at GZ. Stamped the log, replaced the cache as found, then we continued on to the next one.Thanks Margieh !!

Darwin to Adelaide Road Trip
Day Nine: Port Augusta to Gumeracha
Weather: perfect, but windy

A great story; read the second sign set back from the road. If it was a busier road, they could do something regularly here, like the sausages at Bunnings.

I hadn’t read the logs about the cache being hard to find; I didn’t have any trouble at all.

I’m glad that the sign got funded, and pleased that there is a cache here to makes us stop and read the story.

Thanks margieh, a favourite. A great debut cache that has stood the test of time!

It’s officially a mega - GCA1DNA “The Great Leap Forward”

The usual Wednesday Wander for members of Befuddled Puzzle solving group had us heading once again in search of solved puzzles and anything else we might be passing. Today it was myself, SA Sewer Rats and Astro. [:o)] Today we were meeting at the Rat's Nest before heading northwards towards our ultimate goal of reaching the new caches at Clement's Gap. Cool There were the usual laughs[^], bad jokesRazz, a couple of FTF'sBig Grin and some more DNF's to add to a list that should be shrinking and not increasing. [:(!] A big day out with me not getting home until 1.00 a.m. the next day and Astro even later.Surprised

Heading home after a meal of the Port Broughton Pub I just had to stop and find a few by torchlight. Razz Unfortunately for me that meant looking down and walking into a low branch in the dark. Twisted There was blood - there is always blood. [B)][B)] But I found the cache which always makes it worthwhile. Smile

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again I will trying to get the other two this year. [^] Should be easy as I only have to get two multi caches in July from the lockdown and couldn't get out. [:o)] The other was DNF's that came down from over 50 to the low teens before blowing out again but I really want to see only single a single digit this year. Cool

***Thanks Margieh for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

hello
 
30-Sep-21
Nice location. You can find it without getting yourself pricked or fouled by the toilet paper and rubbish. Sad that our countryside is used as a dumping ground.
 
13-Sep-21
According to google we missed the opening hours by 15 minutes and therefore weren't able to partake of cream puffs for morning tea.
But then again they open at midnight so only another 11 hours and 45 minutes to wait... Umm de dumm
 
14-Aug-21
Great story. Nice easy find on way back from seeing all the family playing footy or netty at Bute. A rare occasion.
Thanks for the cache.

07-Aug-21
Today we cached between the Barunga Range and Port Broughton Cool. The day was moving on by now, so we started to zig-zag around to the south Razz, picking up caches in the farming areas in the general direction of home Smile.
Love finding these little spots of local history [^].

Mmmm. Could have used a cream puff when we visited - alas, we were late again Red Face.
Thanks again Margieh.

So we were all set to fly to Dayboro for the Queensland Mega this weekend. There hadn't been a case in Qld for a quite a few weeks before we decided to book in early Feb. What are the chances of a case causing a lockdown and closing the border we thought..So when it all did happen just 4 days before we where due to leave, we were royally peed off. So we had to cancel and find somewhere else to spend Easter. Pt Broughton was a last minute choice so here we are at the Broughton Bay RV park. After having brekkie in the Cafe and looking around the markets we headed out to do a few around the district. Searched at GZ with no luck, widened our seach and found the cache about 9 mertres away from GZ. TFTC

TFTC nice find quick drive by another bit of history we never knew about
 
07-Nov-19
TFTC a quick drive by, although it was about 8/9 meters out from the coordinations. Love learning about this little piece of history out here on a road we have many times but never knew the history of this location. The log was signed & dated, took nothing but added a little something.
 
12-Aug-19
Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

This morning, the back farm roads from Port Broughton are the target. Everything is looking so green at the moment. Mostly Wheat, and some canola flowering in the distance.

Like every one else's log, this cache is eight metres out. But we found it eventually under a different tree. Thanks Margieh

Out for a drive with Purrfect Di.
No cream puffs today, my cholesterol thanks you Razz

Out with an Adder and a Fish, on our Wednesday wandering.
Caching our way to Port Broughton and back to Gawler.
That was an interesting bit of history.
Whilst the Adder slithered in one spot the Rat scurried to another spot.
The Rat quickly had the cache in her paws. Tftc
 
03-Jul-19
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.

Another bit of history that we would not have learned if not for this fun hobby. Cache found in an adjacent structure about 8 meters from GZ.

09-Mar-19
A huge weekend of geocaching with Mary from Aussie M & M. We got ourselves a lovely little cottage in Kadina and made this our base. So many caches and so little time we had to target certain ones that we felt were special enough to get a visit. As per normal we fixed any that needed some love so other could find them after us.
We expanded our search and quickly found the original cache. About 9 m out.
Thanks to Margieh from mogni Big Grin
 
09-Mar-19
This is one of the caches we were targeting to find while on the Yorke Peninsula. Monica spread out and made the find here. We were all ready to replace this one for the CO, but there was no need. Just spread out a bit more people, hidden at the base of a ......, and easily found.

Coords awayWe have commenced Part 2 of our holiday. Part 1 was Easter at Morisset and we came home to sort out some family business. Now we are heading to South Australia instead.

After 4 wonderful nights at Edithburgh we have headed off to Port Broughton for a couple of nights. We arrived early enough to set off for the afternoon picking up caches as they popped up. What a terrific story - have been craving cream puffs ever since. Coords had us quite a way away but we have replaced it in the same area but in a logical spot for the next seeker.

Since moving from New Zealand I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
The caches I’ve found in Australia so far have for the most part all been in great condition. Keep up the good work.

Easy find few days ago!! Thanks

TFTC Easy find.

TFTC. While stopped here to read the sign, a local farmer pulled up and told us that he used to know the bachelors that the cream puff sign refers to.

Parham to Snowtown.

Interesting story.

On this occassion, I am doing a generic log. I have travelled from Queensland to meet up with Muff1 for a Geocaching extravaganza on the beautiful Yorke Peninsular.

Our goal to Cache, Cache and Cache. Each day our "finds" have been growing in number, some days more productive then others. Repairs and replacement of broken containers, new log books and adding a new plastic bag here and there have all been part of the fun we have been having.

We have also been careful to take time to appreciate the natural wonder of the areas we have visited. The variety of caches was interesting, some very clever, some the quick grab they were designed to be.

My sincere thanks to Muff1 for providing me with the opportunity to join them on this geocaching holiday.

A big thank you to all of the dedicated Cache placers who have made this possible.

What a lovely name for a corner. We did, what we are sure many have done, drove straight to the sign only to realised it was elsewhere. As we were leaving another car pulled in and we stopped and chatted wondering if they were geocachers but they were not, they were only taking a photo of the sign. This leaves the question - how many people stop and take a photo here.
The listed TB is not in the cache.

First we must appologise for the generic logs.

We came to Yorke Peninsular with Speedmistress who hails from Queensland to cache our little hearts out and this we are doing.

We solved loads of puzzles prior to coming and with all the earth, multi, trads and puzzles there are here we were never lacking in variety.

When we found caches that needed repair we have done our best to do what was possible, unfortunately we have now rum out of spare containers, so no more repairs can be done. We have enjoyed the scenery, the walks, the animal life and the challenges that was encountered while traveling the Peninsular. Not all the caches have been attempted due to time restraints but those have been earmarked for future visits.
We also would like to thank Speedmistress for supplying our geocaching chariot.
A huge thanks to all the cache owners for placing these caches for us to enjoy.
