We have travelled over to Kadina to an extended Australia Day long weekend. Today is our last day, but before pulling up stumps and heading home, we headed out to clear a few more off the map. A nice size cache here! TFTC
TFTC. Day 9 of honeymoon caching trip. Off on the road again!
Happy caching and safe travels!

Quick find here today on my way past, cache and contents are all good
Today I headed up to the copper coast for a day out to find a few caches yet to be found plus the new onslaught of puzzles up here. Managed to dodge the rain that was forecast and come away with just over 50 finds.
Thanks for the cache

Another find as we clear up some stragglers around the Kadina/Wallaroo surrounds. I was baptised a Methodist so always interested in exploring their sites. Thanks Tk2
Today was a mighty fine day. A Jams crew day albeit depleted today it was just Allisterw, JJ52 and I so we logged using our individual caching names rather than as Jams.
We made a canny plan to head up the highway to Lochiel, Snowtown and then via Bute to Moonta. Lots of caches found including several ‘bastard’ nanos (eagle eyed Allister was the nano king today). Lots of historical buildings, a monster, the beach, a wedding, a bomb, tractors and many ‘welcome to’ signs. Lots of ‘bastard’ cacti but we seemed to win more of those than we lost which was a definite bonus. Only one dnf for the day.
70 caches visited and Allisterw top scored with 69 finds.
It was very chilly all day but no rain so no complaints.
Thanks to the many COs for contributing to our day out and big thanks to my pals for the laughs and Allí for driving

A fun day with JJ52 and Michells&hound going from Adelaide to Lochiel, Snowtown, Bute and Moonta finding caches along the way. My main role was to drive and find caches. TFTC Tk2
Lovely to see an old church restored and becoming someone’s home.

Found during a caching foray that included Cunliffe, Kadina, Wallaroo and a circuit out towards Bute while staying at Moonta Bay for a few days. Thanks for the cache, and for the series of caches highlighting some historic locations in the area Tk2!
Today I felt like going out for some New Years Day caching. Specifically the roads between Kadina and Bute.
Was an easy find and I definitely didn't fall over.

Day 266 (Thursday 21st) of our trip. Caching along the way. In Maitland today. A total of 22 for the day and 5574 for the trip. TFTC
Have been trying to find a couple of caches a day and have done so BUT the logging is slower than a wet week, so i do apologise ! Was a quick find while i was in the area for work .
Had a frog TB on board so decided to drop him/her here!! Then i was on my way - A much quicker than expected find with a cache size I appreciate! Hide intact and log is clean dry condition. No bow wows to spoil to silence. A few usual Aussie wave buzzy things and a light plane overhead was all that spoiled the wind in the trees and peaceful feeling of being alone out here, despite nearby residency. TYFTC SLTNLN except a fave cos everyone should have one! SLTN

Felt uncomfortable enough being so close to the house, so didn't even think to look for the plaque [8)].

Another Caching Wednesday for the Puzzled Puzzlers. Today's group of brisal5, S.A. Sewer Rats and Blackadders were once again heading north in search of that elusive smilie. Three weeks earlier I had missed the trip due to injuring my back and had only done a half day since. [B)] This would be a big test. [8)] After several DNF's three weeks ago the others were keen to return with a new set of eyes. We had a full day of laughs and a couple of sprinkles of rain but managed to right a few DNFs but still added a few more before seeing the sun set in Wallaroo and turning for home. We will be back again next week.
What a great gesture from the locals. [^] Cache quickly located.

A small menagerie of the puzzled puzzler animals had planned to visit the top end of the Yorke Peninsular to seek more smileys on their individual maps. Unfortunately the Starfish had injured his back the day before which left just the Adder and the Rat to fulfill the quest.
Spotted the good sized container and found 2 log books inside, One with a FTF log and the other with earlier dates?
Added our stamp to both just in case.
we were well hidden by the bushes and kept our noise down as not to disturb the dogs across the road.

A couple of days of geocaching with Aussie M & M. As normal we laughed, we tried hard not to hurt ourselves and only replaced or repaired about 6 geocaches. Apologies for the generic logs but it was a big couple of days.
Thanks to Tk2 from mogni

Out caching for the day with Mark and mogni. We were aiming to cache our way to Kadina, which only took about 6 hours when it is only a 2 hour drive. There may have been a few detours for caches we just had to do. This one was one of those.
Thanks to Tk2

Just tidying up a few loose ends as far as caches found goes. An easy drive by, although I think I upset the nearby farm dog relatively early on a Sunday morning!

The long weekend presented the perfect opportunity for my wige (Tounga) and I to plan a quick get away.
So, we booked some accommodation in Moonta and decided to cache the upper Yorke Peninsula.
We had a great time, finding 129 geocaches in all.
Thanks for hinding your cache Tk2, we enjoyed it.
I apologise for the generic log.

Hi there Tk2.
We found your cache **"Wintanerta"** at 9:06:00 AM today.
This was our 10th find for the day and this makes our find count 12988.
Our cache run today was initially to finish off the Pyramid. After that our next goal was to log our 13,000th find - - - so we navigated from cache to cache to the one the GPS said was next closest etc. On the way home our mental arithmetic said that we were one short so we did what Bruce (of Liz & Bruce) would say - - "Just one more lovey!" & ended up with 22 finds & 1 DNFs at the end of the run.
###Thanks for not placing an eclipse tin or a 200ml Sistema here. Once upon a time caches seemed to be "regular" sized,and well stocked with goodies for kids to swap. Nowadays it seems like every other cache is small and devoid anything to induce children to enjoy the hunt. It made us feel really good to find this cache in a "special" place.###
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** Container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Camped at Paskeville bowling club, and ventured to pick up a few caches in the area.
A pleasant drive in the country and we enjoyed the scenery.
We picked up a good variety of caches, some a little trickier to find than others.
Very hot and humid today, so we headed back to the caravan early.
Cache located after a short search, signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Tk2, for us and others to find.

After a weekend of fun in the copper triangle, Timotatus and I had to return the party gear.
So back to Adelaide, but not without a few detours on the way
Cute little chapel tucked away from the rat race.
Mattycat's great great grandmother had the first methodist chapel in the south east built on their property near Gambier, still there today but no longer the methodists.

Heading off on the prickly cactus road tour today with locus cache, JJ52 and laighside legends in Harry and a convoy of others as well
We travelled far and wide and found most of the BBB caches that we looked for Still despite all the people and previous finders with us a couple elluded us
We also found some other caches. [^]
In the end after dodging cute little bunnies on the road we finally made it to Wallaroo before the pub shut for dinner and then I slept most of the way home to Adelaide.
Thanks to locus cache for driving and singing and thanks to BBB and all the other cache hiders! We had a fab day!

Group assault on our BBB tour. We just happened to be driving past so stopped to grab this one. With torches blazing we headed off into the bush. Sorry to say I didn't see anything much other than bush and the cache.

Out for the day with Laighside Legends, JJ52 and Ismartis for a fun day out.
Attended the BBB on Tour event, then made our way out to a plethora of prickly, scratchy, frustratingly increasing caches with a similar camo style.
I finished the day with 14 finds , 2 DNFs and 1 event attended ... although that should read 15 finds (1 GCA), 2 DNFs and 2 events attended (1 GCA)
Our last cache before heading straight into Wallaroo for tea.
That decoy had us tricked until we lifted it, then the real cache was found

Caching with, Shaido, Locus, Ismartis, JJ52, Laighside Legends and GPS. Here we find a nice cache with room for signatures.
Found as a part of TheKellyGang, writing this as a genaric log as I was a part of TheKellyGang and am now out on my own.
If you do not agree with this you are more than welcome to delete the log.

Today we are heading to the copper triangle to do some caches with earthlight and the x trailers, we managed around 120 caches over the 2 days we spent here and we saw some fantastic scenery along the way, being the geowifes early childhood stomping grounds i was treated to a lot of history about quite a few of the areas and how much things have changed over time, this is day 1 and as we head out in the x trailers geomobile we start crossing of a few that are on the to do list, this one was a nice quick find. TFTC
Arrived to a friendly greeting of 2 little dogs today.
Found the cache with 3LG and the x-trailers.
Love the history on these back roads.

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia after having attended Oz Mega.
Today was moving day, we are still travelling with iluvtrekking after major repairs at Toytota Maitland.
We moved the caravans to Bute today and then headed out around Kadina Geocaching and doing some shopping at Woolworths, BWS, and the local Butchers.
We found some great caches and some superb caches. All in all a great day. Wonder what tomorrow holds.
hmmm we approached this one from the complete wrong side and through the scratchy bush but we made it even though we had to walk 60m. Think it would have been easier to come up the road.

Found this in the dark to complete day 8 of 31 days of geocaching for August 2013. A bit spooky with no light or noise anywhere near. TFTC
After dropping my neighbour's mother at home in Kadina I was out on a caching mission. This was my first find while in the area. I heard the dogs but didn't see any stone and plaque. It must have been cache tunnel vision.

After attending the YP Cachers Get Together #4 put on by Dazzatron we enjoyed a lovley lunch and the company of fellow Cachers. TFTC Tk2
Heading back from a great couple of days caching in Whyalla we were taking our time coming down so as to be able to attend the "YP Cachers Get Together #3" event tomorrow night and also grab some caches in areas we do not normally travel. We pulled up at another Tk2 cache this time with the rain looking like it had set in. Although quite close to the house the owners Jack Russell's must have been keeping dry as they did not give us away. After adding our name to the log we spotted the plaque and had a very quick read before heading back to the dry of the car.
Again our thanks Tk2.

Found It!
Found and signed the cache, then as I was leaving my pants caught on a stick and tore a hole in them...

Found with Fich06 on a very hot day! Nearly gave up on this one due to flies and general unpleasantness of the weather, but found at the last minute. TFTC.
With much better weather today, it gave us an opportunity to hunt many more caches before we leave Yorke Peninsula tomorrow...easy find by Mr Bushies2. Thanks Tk2.
Lovely, big, strong cache and nice house. Cache # 1007. (Edited because had wrong entry here. )

Interesting to see that this old place is now a house. We were here fairly early in the morning so we made our find as quickly as possible so as not to disturb the residents.
As we arrived a car was inspecting the plaque. Might be geocachers. Might be rubber neckers. They left the scene without logging the cache. I guess they are the second group.
Found this after getting a FTF at Neds Corner
The New owner has done a good job renovating this old church
