Cache found on the way home, many people out and about and spoiling my attempts at caching but not here. Just . TFTC Team lulu_jt.
Love the name of this road! This was the second find tonight as naughtybunny and I went for a drive around here to nab a few caches. This was a quick find and happy to see it had been replaced. TNLN. Cheers.
Saw that this one had been replaced, and ducked past to get rid of the blue face after doing a new Multi just up the road a bit!
Thanks for replacing it, a quick find here and of course it's in great condition!

Today gridge98 and I headed to Murray Bridge. A lovely day out, excellent weather and two lovely walks.
No luck here today. We gave it a good search at the obvious places at ground level and came up empty handed.
found after work. Took a drive to find the 3 closest unfound caches on the " wrong side " ( not the way home ) of Nairne. I need 3 caches on this calendar day to get a total of 10 caches in this calendar day, about 53 days to go. quick find. dropped a trackable off.
Was close by and thought I would check Cache, container brittle and if hole wasn't already there I managed to break it will get new container soon.
I left the car at the end of the bitumen and walked here. Great day for it. I’d love to know what the story behind the name of the road is! Cache in great shape despite lack of recent visitors. TFTC.
The usual day out with a few of the puzzled Puzzlers. The Adder, Rat, Owl and a Fish made a plan to try and clean out the Mount Barker area however as usual the plan never worked.
A quick find, cache is all good. TFTC

Ha ha, I got the joke. Recent work on the road has made the trip up the road verge interesting. However, I found it, just as a local farmer rode up on his quad bike and gave me a bit of an interrogation! Turns out he's been the victim of several robberies; so was investigating this random stranger who pulled up down the road. He was aware of the geocache and had asked the police about it (they explained what it was etc.) Concerned, I asked him if he wanted it removed but he said he was fine with it being there, but just warns future cachers that they may be questioned. So keep an eye out for a farmer in a white quad bike
Another fun afternoon caching with Jack and Purrfect Di.

We are slowly working our way through the caches in this area. They take you down some amazing roads and give you beautiful views. The cache is in good condition. SL TFTC
Sixteenth and final cache for the afternoon, tried to make this more difficult than it was. Lovely roads and pretty properties around here. TFTC
Apologies for the late log.
Spending Mother's Day caching in the area.
Quickly located while trying not to draw too much attention from the farmer in the paddock across the road.

A reasonably quick find on a damp, cold morning. Do people still buy overpriced cosmetics this way anymore?
Thanks lulu_jt.
Thanks lulu_jt.
When the car GPS mentioned the name of the upcoming road I quite literally said, "Oh you've got to be kidding me!" And then a photo with the road sign was in order Whoever named this road needs to be added to the hall of fame, that's all I'm saying! TFTC!
Was aamazed at trwe house across the road. Found with3LG on way to Hahndorf for event. TFTC

Today we are off to the TDU event at Hahndorf so we decided to leave a little earlier and grab some caches along the way as one does : ) a quick find as we passed through here. TFTC
Mr Tardis and Mini Tardis were in Mt Barker today hardware shopping. We went on a detour out this way to find a cache.
I've always wondered why this cache had it's particular name, and today on the way to GZ the penny dropped. Mini Tardis found this one before Mr Tardis. Maybe I need some glasses?
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Team lulu_jt.

It's always easier if you look in the right place. Doh!! However if you are sure that is too easy. TFTC
Found on caching day around Mt Barker. Nice back road scenery. Took TB to continue journey. Tftc
Nice easy find along a lovely hills dirt road. Very dry, but the sky is attempting to deliver rain, hopefully we get a bit

Followed a huge kangaroo down the dirt road. Nice area needing rain. SL. TN. Left signature item.
Had a couple of hours child free today so we went out to grab some caches after a couple of weeks of none!
Guess this is our traditional crossed off the August souvenir challenge
Nice easy find in some of the nicest weather we've had in weeks. TFTC!

I love the name of the road. Priceless. As are the views around here. TFTC.
Work was a little slow so Mr M took the day off. Hmmm.... what could we possibly do?
This one gave us a real laugh as we turned onto the road. The hint suggested that the cache was hidden in the obvious spot. We saw the obvious spot but got confused as it was about 100m past GZ. We went back to GZ and as it appeared to be a quiet road and very wet on the verges we just parked the car in the middle of the road and went for the cache. You guessed it. Suddenly this little road became busier than Bourke St which forced us to run back to the car to move it. TFTC lulu jt.

Quick easy find on a sunny afternoon. The local cows provided some entertainment ... friendly little fellas. Thanks lulu_jt.
Great ride out to Dawsley & not much traffic due to the Good Friday holiday. Quick find, even though GPS stopped at 22 metres. Didn't see the sign until I met the other road at the T-junction. Cheers for the great sized cache lulu_jt
Found It!
According to the sign there's a Robin Hood Convention happening just down the road. No arrows were seen...

A quick find, although I initially was looking at the wrong tree Great name for the cache.
Thanks

On approach to GZ we realised the inspiration that gave this cache its name. A quick and easy find on a back road in a lovely area. TFTC
Found at 2:30 PM. Interesting location down a narrow dirt road.
Safe parking is necessary, just in case the the two person 'horse and trap' appears again.
Checking out what the strangers were doing down a 'no though' road I suppose!
Easy find, a bit un-covered, but OK now.

Spent the afternoon caching with rougewatermelon. Middle of nowhere is right. So every passing muggle stops to offer assistance to the people stopped on this road. Whilst defecting muggle attention rougey found it and walked casually back to the car. TFTC
A fairly easy driveby. Jumped out of the car quickly and quickly found it. Hid behind a tree whilst Brisal5 distracted a passing muggle. A nice little cache. TNLF
Ingrid found this one.
