After 16 years of caching the time has come to tick off a mega. After arriving late last night into Adelaide I was up early with a mission to collect as many cache types as were available today. I headed into town before the event in the hope to pick up the web cam caches and a sprinkling of others to set me up for the rest of the day. Finding a safe place to park I was soon at ground zero and the prize was quickly obtained. Now off to enjoy more of what Adelaide has to offer and tick a few boxes along the way.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this available to be found.Cheers

For future finders, no need to be tramping around the broader area.The image on the cache page is a smidgen misleading.The cache is to the right of the electricity pole.A nice neighbour was out and about stating she is concerned about kids hunting for the cache more broadly, and there PLENTY of snakes in the area.Be snake wary kids.Cache has a family of snails as guardians.TFTC

Found myself on a long, windy (scary!), road that I couldnt turn around on oops! But at least it led me to this cache. My apologies to the dozens of snails who have made their home around this cache I replaced it as carefully as possible. It was lovely to look out over this field at golden hour. The picture doesnt do it justice!

I had almost all of March away from caching to concentrate on the Garden. Surprised Time to get back to working towards my goals for the year.Razz

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. Twisted So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers to single digits. Cool That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

Today I needed a multicache so I decided to leave the close to home ones and go for a drive. [^] After getting the multicache I decided to find some other nearby caches - as you do. Cool This was a much quicker find than the first I tried. Smile

***Thanks Lava12 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

This evening, I travelled to Clarendon primarily to complete *The History of Clarendon* Adventure Lab, and visited a variety of places that contained geocaches. I hadn't fully explored Clarendon before except for an engagement party at the pub, and found it a quite historical and quaint town sitting next to the river. I used the remaining day's light to find roadside geocaches along the turns and crests of the roads, driving back through Blackwood to return home.

I parked nearby to this spot, and made a reasonably quick find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks Lava12 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

BOKO is most definitely an unusual name for a street.

It sounds like a word i do know of...... "Bokeh"
Pronounced (Boh-kay) [Japanese] Is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in the out-of-focus parts of an image produced by a camera lens.
This word came to mind when i saw the name of this cache Wink

The cache was found quickly and it's log was signed at 10:12 [Wed 13 May 2020] on a cool, still and drizzly {at times} day... lovely [^]!

The cache and contents are good and dry [^]

I couldn't find this GC. I was about to leave GZ without finding the cache when the son-in-law of the property's owner drove down their private road and had a chat. He was a very friendly fellow and now understands what geocaching is all about. If my GPS serves me well, the GC is somewhere on his father-in-law's land Sad The fence has not been replaced because some vehicles have carried straight on instead of turning around the bend and cleaned up the fence several times. Maybe my GPS wasn't showing the location of the GC ... maybe that's possibly why I couldn't find it. Hills and GPS systems don't mix. TFTC. I will be back Smile

Out caching with hevwalker, clare007 and CP today. We went from the Adelaide Hills to Coromandel Valley to Port Noarlunga, Aldinga and then home via Meadows.

Lots of caches and some walking made for a good day out. All our tallies were different, I ended up with 27 finds for the day Big Grin.

A quick find here.

Day 5 of our SA jaunt had us targeting the Wandering Heroes series and anything else that took our fancy [^]. We camped last night at Tailem Bend and we are unsure how far todays travels will take us Smile. After not much success on the WH series we decided to head to this area to rack up our find counts!

I had been eyeing off an interstate trip for some time now and made plans to head to SA to power through the geoart trails over here Big Grin. I roped in my geo buddy Krabiboy to join me and we set about solving [?] caches and highlighting Jasmer caches that aren't available over in WA. Our adventure took us from the CBD over to the Yorke Peninsula and then back across to the Murray Bridge area Smile. We were relentless in chasing down the finds and picked up as many as we could in the week that we had available. Due to the park and grab nature of our visit, the log books which weren't able to accommodate the ink stamp we had made were signed with the initials 'jk'! Fave points will be awarded for those caches which are considered awesome Big Grin

A massive thanks here to Lava12 for placing this cache here and for tempting us to venture over to this area. Cheers!

jinta29 found your cache BOKO today. This is my find #7738 and find #149 today. I was able to get my name in the log book here and we replaced the cache as we found it. Thanks once again Lava12 for placing this and bringing us to this part of the world!

jinta29 and I are in town this week after many months of planning for a week to remember. We are heading to the Yorke Peninsula, Murray Bridge and as many places in between as we can get to. This was one we found along the way.

TFTC Lava12.

Lava12, I found your cache BOKO on 28/4/17.
This is my find #4586 and find #149 today.
