We're camped near Sedan with friends and this morning I retrieved HansandLinda from Mannum so we could find the NVRATHM "helmet" series. Once we'd finished that, we headed back to camp for lunch and then they got the notification that their car was ready to be picked up so back to Mannum we went. There were a few stops on the way....Thanks for find #5607TNLN

TFTC FLIPPER&CO your cache Come Renovate Red With Me that we found today. We are in Mannum waiting for the geo-vehicle to undergo some repairs. Meandde offered to take us to Sedan to complete the FireHelmet geo-art. An offer gladly accepted. After a couple of hours the geo-art was completed. After a stop in Sedan to catch up with Wollaston, Honeysucker and DiMorgan we were chauffeured back to our car , which was now ready to be picked up, but not before doing some caches along the road home.Find Count: 18731

Out for a Wednesday Wander, after picking up the Rat from her nest headed over to Sedan to meet up with the Starfish for the main aim of the day, the new NVRATHM series nearby. After getting into our rhythm all 61 were found in short order allowing us to slowly meander our separate ways home, for me it meant another four were found.
A quick find and stamp.
Thanks FLIPPER&CO for putting this cache on the geomap.
Cache #13516 for me.

Our last day together on this trip, we headed even further afield from Loxton. fitzy_1965, albida33 & I signed as MAF or FAM to save room.

We got to do the ferry ride at Swan Reach twice again which we always enjoy Wink This was the next find of the day, and it was a quick find once at GZ.

Today I headed up to Sedan and surrounds to get some numbers to help me reach my target of 13000 for the year. I also needed a multi for my calendar and there were plenty to choose from up here.
It was a great day for caching, blue skies and sunshine but not too hot, although I did get a sunburnt arm through the car window.
Lots of great caches and didn’t see any snakes which was great.
All up 48 finds for the day. Thanks to all the CO for their efforts really enjoyed my caching today.

--------

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I've noticed the cache owner actually hasnt provided owner maintenance but just acknowledged the cache requires maintenance which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

To start the maintenance process I am disabling the cache.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 14 days,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Hi there FLIPPER&CO.

We found your cache **"Come Renovate Red With Me"** today. (This makes our find count 22047).

Today we headed out from Mount Pleasant to attempt the BMT series - but we also had to find this one. As it's not part of the series it deserves a finely crafted log, not one of the crappy cut-n-paste ones that usually are associated with power trails.

We found 36 caches today & DNF'd 0. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

We were out for a caching hunt today with ilook4geo, while spending a few days in the Palmer area.
We couldn't quite see why other cachers found this difficult to find or to access. It is easy enough to reach if you approach the cache from the right direction.
After the log had both names enscribed to register our visit, we were soon on our way to look for more caches to increase the tally for the day. Our thanks go to FLIPPER&C0 for putting this cache into play.

ANNUAL FATHER'S DAY HUNT (AKA FATHER/DAUGHTER TIME)

Found while out with Team Holden

TFTC

I love the hunt [8]
 
03-Sep-17
Out on a mission today, It's father's Day and I have the company of my daughter for the day. Last night it rained and we expected the worse so we packed the TRED's and a shovel.
Luckily we didn't get bogged, we had fun, met other Dad's out with their children Geocaching, nice to meet others enjoying what would normally be declared a miserable winter's day in Spring.
Sadly we missed a few ones that we intended to get but that means we will be back when it's a little dryer and warmer.
Thanks to all CO's for bringing us to new regions for the treasure hunt.

We found the cache after a few minutes searching, and signed the logbook.

We looked at the clue written under the lid, but decided it couldn't possibly assist us in finding the bonus cache. The thing is, we found the bonus cache back in October 2009 using sheer brain power. Or maybe it was just luck, I really can't remember.

Thanks FLIPPER&CO.

Travelling around Australia.

Back in SA for a few weeks and loving it already. Magnificent weather that has been turned on for us.

Up early this morning to go to the Dawn Service, back at home, we checked out nearby caches,packed some lunch and set off for a days outing. [^]

Well a full on day we had. How do they say [?] When in Rome ........ Well when in the Australian Power Trail State do some Power trails [:o)] Razz

So sure enough a big day out for us and we arrived home exhausted and with 81smilies our reward.

A quick and easy find.

Out and about with Ozibags today where we enjoyed a beautiful country drive [^] on a gorgeous day [^] whilst having fun (gotta love lots of silly talk and laughter) WinkBig Grin [^], and picking up a few caches [^].

Not only did we have an awesome day, but we also had a few unexpected adventures.......including almost managing to get shot at Surprised [xx(] by a very scary angry muggle who clearly had a few issues (which also meant at least one of the caches we found will likely need archiving).....I do wonder what may have been cultivating on that property [?] [:(!].......but before we knew how our day was going to unfold, this was one of our stops Cool

Thanks for the cache FLIPPER&CO Smile

Team Crackers and I met up with The Drovers and Konie in Bordertown yesterday as we all head to the YP as one over the next few days. Today we cached around the Mannum area with quite a few trads, puzzles, multi's and earthcaches found and logged, around 170 all up for the day. An assault on a number of series was the main focus on the day. The log books now carry the acronym CDKM or a derivative of that, depending on whether a team member had found the cache on a previous occasion.

Thanks FLIPPER&CO for placing this cache.
