Found it! Scribbled down lots of numbers and letters and did the calculations and GZ seemed to make sense. Was happy to find the cache quickly at GZ. Nice peaceful location to sit and do the sums on this multi. TFTC!

Travelling with richlink from Perth to Darwin up along the west coast and home again through the centre and the Nullarbor. We are on the home stretch now, just a few days in the Yorke to pick up a few caches. Thanks for the cache, we are enjoying the history in this area.

After lunch in Snowtown I headed out to find a number of old school sites and caches.
Where there was schools there had to be churches. It must have been very busy spot here on a Sunday ️
My last cache for the day and finished off with a colourful sunset topped the day’s adventures

Not reading one question correctly, it took a while to get coordinates right. Once sorted, the cache was quickly in hand and stamped. TFTC

I managed to get away for a couple of days to try abd build up the numbers for the year. I stayed at Orroroo overnight and made my way around the mid north.

All caches found were in good order unless otherwise noted.

Thanks Margieh for the cache.

Took a little while to work this one out. Successfully located the container in good condition, but suspect storm damage at gz has made retrieval of the container quite challenging . Great history. Tftc

Thanks for the cache

In Clare for the weekend...friending and caching...
We did take a wide berth to get a few on the way to, from and in Snowtown this evening...
Fantastic locations...things have a different look and perspective at night by torchlight...

Had fun dashing between cairns and raindrops today. Great location. TFTC
 
09-Jan-20
A day off from work had me off to the north west with Purrfect Di and Jack...
A few random caches to be found along the way - this was one of the lucky ones Wink
Realistically it was a stinking hot day, with hoards of icky flies, harsh winds, and smoke filled skies from the KI bushfires Surprised
But we still had a good time hopping in and out of our air conditioned geo mobile!
Many a theological discussion may have occured here, but all that's left now are mini churches ! ! !
tftc Margieh Cool

Staying in Balaklava for the grain harvest, but our time here is drawing to a close. Today we ducked out for a drive to Snowtown. Really enjoyed the drive along the backroads.

Cheers and happy caching...

Interestingly enough, it's quite common for churches of different denominations to build close to each other Smile.
As usual, made this one difficult for ourselves by presuming you'd use all 8 digit dates [B)].
Obviously this wouldn't give us any reasonable coords, so reverted to simple numbers to do the calcs [8].
Should have just read all the description and the xxxx, then looked around Razz. TNLNSL.
Thanks Margieh.

day out with TheKellyGang doing a few different caches around the areas TFTC

Found with ThekellyGang and Squash99 after a late start and a day of caching! Tftc
 
02-Aug-15
mmm! , We left late this morning after getting held up at home with a visitor so off we went after they left, Love Birds in the back seat Squash99 and BN97. This one has taken us a long time to do, it just become too annoying having a mark and not a smiley waiting for us. As we have done every other cache in the area so now we can finally say we have found this one. About time!! TFTC

Heading to the Flinders Ranges for some 4WDing leaving a day early to cache my way up. The weather looked ominous with black clouds, strong northerly winds but by the end of the day it became quite cool. Made 37 finds from Paralowie to Quorn.

Found it in the open - hid it a little better. TFTC. Big Grin

I have visited this cache previously and managed to get my numbers badly wrong. Today I only made one small mistake which was quickly identified. Where have all the people gone, and what happened to the churches?

One of 89 finds while riding the Bicycle SA 2012 Annual Tour.

Thanks for the cache Margieh.
 
03-Mar-12
Thankyou for bringing us to another great location, and giving us a small history lesson too.

A quick find as the sun vanished and the grey clouds rolled in!!! Thanks Margieh for the hide!!

A nice multi to break up the driving around. Found on our Clare Valley & districts caching trip today. Driving around on the back roads & dodging lizards on the roads. The cache was out in the open so I put it back better than what we found it SL TNLN TFTC

Finally come back and search but my new gps said other side of road so I used my old gps - yep found it. Signed the log. Thanks Margieh.

So which deity do you support? The one with two heads? Or the one with eight arms? Or one with a really neat hammer...
 
19-Jul-10
Another multi where I have to spend ages extracting 26 numbers, only to use a fraction of them. I should have just gone with my hunch as to where it would be hidden – I was only 5m away in the end [^].
…But I didn’t Red Face, and after it had all been calculated, found an easy cache. Loved the little church. It reminds me of another similar one in Piccadilly [^]. No swaps. Cheers.

Today we won the duel. took a bit to click and then aha there it is. Tempted to use the dunny but think I will just hold on. TFTCSL

The math on the other hand!!! Red Face

A very intresting multi and a great hide. TNLN Thanks 4 the cache.
 
21-Feb-10
Found after rechecking calculations that took us down the road a little way realising that an I and a 1 are very similar and should not be confused in the formula. Read it properly and yes there it was in walking distance from where we were first parked the car. Thanks

Will need to recalculate??

Thanks Margieh
 
26-Dec-09
Our second little replica church we've visited today! At first I thought we wouldn't be able to work this one out, but realised we needed more than just the date for the first 2 questions. Red Face Once we had 26 numbers to work with, the rest was easy.

Thanks Margieh.

Thoughts of Choose Your Deity by Team Waldron crossed my mind here. In the end you have to choose. I think the Deity is the easy bit. The leap of faith is the scary part for most.
