We looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out! We're a tipp'n it's a miss'n.
Thanks for the hunt anyway FLIPPER&CO.

Suscoe had no luck here today, 4 pairs of eyes looked for a while with no luck.
Interesting murals.
Interesting murals.
spent a bit of time here looking but didn't find it. Would of thought from the photo it would be easy to see
All the previous logs described this as an easy find. I looked for a very long time and all I found was a pencil that may or may not have been in the cache. [?]
After looking at photos I certainly didn't see anything cachey...lots of rubbish though.
Will come back again, thanks anyway FLIPPER&CO.

Found and left a TB perfect for river runs on the Murray. Lots of lollies and rubbish put in this cache I decided to remove as that’s not the spirit of caching.
*Found whilst on family holidays in Renmark*
A nice early start on a pleasant spring day in the Riverland. Out and about with Happy pants and Happy Feet. A great morning out with many laughs had and memories made. Without Geocaching as my guide I would never have found so many interesting places on my travels.
A nice straight forward find here.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment FLIPPER&CO. Appreciate your efforts.

Stamped and returned as found...

In Renmark for a family holiday for the week and having the opportunity to grab a few finds with Snap Happy and Happy pants. Headed into Berri this morning to make a few finds before meeting up with the rest of the family. We discovered some good hides and had no DNF's. As always, there was plenty of laughs and fun had, along the way.
This was a great way to disguise the tin shed. Was looking for something a bit smaller. Left a geocoin.
I am currently writing detailed logs because of a challenge provided by Project-GC. "The Author" Badge challenges geocachers to average one hundred words or more in each log. As of the start of 2018 my average was only 47 words per log, which seems a long way from the 100 target. Given that I have found so many GC caches, I have to write many logs with well over 100 words for a long period of time to get my average to the target. Apologies to anyone who finds the logs tedious but it is the only way that I can strive to attain this challenge. After over 7000 plus caches (which includes all cache finds up and including yesterday), the average log length is just over 50 words. I am now entertaining the possibility that I might be able to achieve my task before the end of next year. It's surprising how much is has increase since doing this.
Thanks FLIPPER&CO for placing the cache for us to find and doing the maintenance to keep it in play.

Managed to make this a quick find as we were passing through this morning. Found the cache a little in the open and rebid it a little better than we found it. Certainly an interesting mural but could definitely do with a touch up and fresh lick of paint. Thanks again FLIPPER&CO for the cache.
Found on Geo Adventure weekend with 4Moule and our families. Logging a few caches to mark m my birthday, hip hip hooray! TFTC
found with sir_spectre on the way home from a short kayaking holiday SLOWLY returning home.
Found with jacknor after leaving the nearby national park and slowly returning home, via a few more caches. That's a long painting.
Cache found nice and easily. All in good order too!
Thanks for the cache FLIPPER&CO. Found on 23 Dec 2017 at 11:19 am. Find #5595.

Azzepious and I went on our second annual trip to Adelaide for caching and cricket. Joining us was muggle Skonos who refused to make a geocaching account but did help on finding caches. Day 3 took us from Renmark to Adelaide to meet our friends who flew down.
All caches logged as Team G.O.G.G.G.G (Team of Glorious Geocaching Gamer Geeks)
Headed into Berry but nothing was open! So we turned around and grabbed a cache on the way out.

a lovely way to turn a blank wall into something interesting, and a nice cache nearby TFTC
Found at 12:35pm; spotted it was nearby when making a call at Bunnings. Thanks for a quick find. SL TFTC
On our Easter Weekend break at KOM we decided to do a few (a lot for us) of caches to get to our 4000th this weekend. This will be our quickest 1000 so far, helped having 3 months off work last year.
Cool mural really liked it TFTC

Find No: 5570. On the way from Newcastle to Alice Springs, so far so good, thanks for the cache FLIPPER&CO!!
Found it because I was there at the right time, a construction fence and gate is usually padlocked, but I got lucky.
Thanks FLIPPER&CO

An easy find as the container does 'stick out' because the camo paint job has all but flaked off.
What a fun weekend I've had in the Riverland!!
Lots of gorgeous geofriends [:X], events, walking, driving (on roads, sand and bush bashing), getting wet feet in the lake, BBQs, picnics, going across the border into Victoria [^], someone getting bogged , someone hitting a kangaroo whilst rescuing the bogged driver , huffing and puffing up what felt like Mt Everest [xx(], eggs & bacon [^], laughter , chatting and of course finding lots of caches!!! [^][^][^][^]
I LOVE GEOCACHING!! WOO HOO!! [:X] [^]

Camped at Loxton, grabbed a few caches in the morning, and had the afternoon off.
We enjoyed the scenery, and picked up a good variety of hides.
All caches were located quickly, signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, FLIPPER&CO, for us and others to find.

A weekend to test out our kayaks, our new tents and to see if our geo-pup can handle camping near other unknown people. ......But it was hot...NO it was BOILING!. Fri night we arrived and went on a guided sunset kayaking tour--AMazing!! (But no caches near-by) Saturday was hot, hot, hot. Poor Elf was less then impressed with this much anticipated camping trip due to the extreme heat. Geo dog didn't care as long as she could swim-- and that she did. Finally Sat evening theElf and I set off to do the night cache. Nerves were a bit rattled as we saw the bush walk, as it was now just perfect weather for snakes. Thankfully the cache was soon in hand and no snakes were seen here or next day.
Sun-- 40+ and we decided we would pack up and head home around lunchtime...so I got up with the birds and spent a a couple of hours with geo-dog, caching.
Grabbed a few on the way home and now we are 1999!! Yippee. TFTC everyone. I grew up on the river and we have had about a 9 year drought re holiday visits due to the pain of losing family and too many memories--- but I missed it too much-- and Berri is perfect- We WILL be back.

Found it easy find looks like work has started on the new Bunnings so hope it not get cleaned up
Guess it's better than a plain wall but looks a bit faded now. A very involved mural though. A quick find was made here. Thanks.
I think Bunnings is going to be built here but a lovely mural the kids enjoyed looking at.
Found on a circuit through Berri, Loxton and doing some of the top end of the Wandering Heroes series. A great day of caching. TFTC
Day two of our Riverland break where we visited family at Loxton.
On the way to and fro we found a number of caches.
This was a quick find and sign.
Pity about the building being empty, I remember buying clean skin cans there on our honeymoon.

Wandered around for a while before spotting the cache, not quite where I thought it would be, took Malaysian note left marble, puzzle and a new log book as the old one was wet.
