A friend and I were camped down the road at the cricket pitch in Tarpeena and we walked for some exercise. Thanks for the cache.

Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA. This is our kind of caching - back country roads. Thanks for the hide mogniLNCU
DNF at 2:41 PM. Thought that a regular sized container should not have been difficult to locate and considering that the cache is rated a mere 1.5/1.5, it should have been very easy to spot. However there was a lot of leaf litter and it was difficult to maneuver amongst the branches so it may still be there.
Having a great day out with M-dolphin and would love doing these in mount gambier tftc
Found it on my way home, so I thought, why not fine some more with yatesy222

Penola to Tarpeena
After attending the CITO at Penola we moved to Tarpeena.
Spending the night at the camping ground.
After lunch we commenced caching starting with the AOOA series, a nicely themed set of caches. Doing a circuit & returning to camp.
Thanks for placing your cache.

Not quite sure what this cache is about, but it was a quick and easy park and grab.
Quickly pulled off the Highway and walked over the lovely verge to see the cache looking back at me in its hidey hole.

New to geocaching. Found object but will leave something next time. Muggle free area at time of posting.
Moving on with my 7 days SA / VIC trip. Day 2 had me travelling from Portland, VIC to Tanunda, SA. I visited a lot of new places and it was a long day but I loved it.
A quick find here.
Thanks

Found with Team Waldron during a trip to the south-east for a few days. On Day 1 we travelled via Meningie, the Coorong and Kingston SE to Millicent and Tantanoola. On Day 2, we toured around Glencoe and completed the STCL series, Colour by Song series, and the AooA series (and found any other caches along the way). On Day 3 we cached around Tarpeena then to Mt Gambier to do the Adventure Lab caches and down to Port MacDonnell. On the final day we completed the Honan Mint Trail and found the southern half of the Awaken and Live series before time got the better of us and we headed for home. Thanks for the cache mogni!
A nice quick find. All in good order here.
Thanks for the cache mogni.

Found at 16:15 during a fantastic extended weekend away with Shonkylogic and Southern Cross Caching. We had grand plans to complete swathes of powertrails and solved puzzles, but the weather slowed us down a bit. Even so, it was a lot of fun, and we passed my goal - to get my 9000th find
Friday, day 1, had us driving and caching from morning in Adelaide until the 6pm event in Millicent.
Day 2 focussed on the fishing series, wine bottle, and numerous other caches in that vicinity.
Day 3 was our slowest, due to the worse weather, but still a lot of fun.
Day four, after doing SFE series and nearby caches, plus those we passed, I arrived home at about 8pm, after finding my 9000th cache along the way.
Great to catch up with many of the usual faces, some others we hadn't seen for a long time, and a few new faces too.

Apologies for the generic log.
Uni and Medusa, Southern Cross Caching, and I ... shonkylogic spent the October Long Weekend in 2021 attending the Easter 2020 Mega Event at Millicent.
Along the way we stopped to find as many caches as we could - because we somehow convinced our better halves not to accompany us. Or perhaps it was because they really don't like caching as much as us.
We came well equipeed in the Pahero, with not one, not two but THREE TOTTs to help us. Even that wasn't sufficient for all the hides, sometimes you just don't have the right tool for the job.
However we had perfect tools for the Fishing series, and then went on to Kalangadoo for the wine series and stopped at a few others, some involving ladders or tree climbing.
We enjoyed meeting up with old friends, in these days of Covid is really is very special to be able to hold an event like this.
Thanks mogni for placing and maintaining the cache

With murmurings of more covid-19 community transmissions and the possible need for another lockdown in Queensland, I decided to high-tail it out of there and found myself in South Australia earlier than expected to attend the Mega Event in Millicent After a week in Adelaide, it was time to pick up a little camper van and explore further afield. The Barossa Valley was great for a few days followed by some time in Berri and surrounding areas before heading down towards Millicent
Unfortunately, I didn't manage to spend as much time in Mt Gambier as I had hoped, so it looks like I will have to plan another trip to visit this amazing part of South Australia [^]
The cache was located easily enough and with my name added to the log book, I continued on my way
Thank you mogni for creating the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy

Grabbed while traveling our wonderful country. Good spot for a leg stretch. Dropped off a TB. TFTC mogni.
Was going to head North East to the South East of Queen's Landing this weekend, but a while ago had a premonition... which came true so we booked the South East of SA instead
Lots to do down this way, and good weather for it too.
Found lost in the leaves,
Big thanks to mogni for placing and maintaining this heaps good cache
"A cache a day keeps the doctor away" - teaming up with Purrfect Di and Jack should do it ! ! !
------------
- - Search at a good social distance whenever you can - or at least with nice clean friends - -
Things are slowly getting back to whatever normal might be - take it carefully!
Catching covid or gastro or anything really would mess up your streaks and challenges!
Keep away from all the nasty bugs ( except nice travel bugs of course )
[|)] - 2, 4, 6, 8,,, let's all go and vaccinate, one day when it's available lol !
[|)] - keep away from crowds as much as you can, they spread the nasty bugs! [:o)]
[|)] - go out and find or place some new caches in our safe country areas away from the red zones
Life's good. Enjoy ! ! ! Just do it

Trying to keep out of trouble and its certainly quiet out this way. Staying at a camp south of Penola, no one much around anywhere which is good for our social separation. We enjoyed the variety of hides and the different tools we made up from the back of our car to reach some. Good creativity with a touch of evil. Our thanks to mogni for placing this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
I have replaced container and added addition logs so should survive for a while longer.
Enjoy

cache replaced with the co. quick find.
Back down to Mount Gambier with Mogni. She wanted to do mainteneance on some of her caches. Day 2 saw us clean the newly published geo art ( which already has 2 throw down mint tins on it ) and any other caches that we passed. Any containers that needed maintenance were fixed and any log books that needed replacing or that where almost full where replaced with the mega coming. Also any small container had extra scroll placed in it for the coming mega in 4 weeks.

Day 165 (Tuesday 11th) of our trip. Caching along the way. In Mt Gambier today. A total of 1 the day and 2788 for the trip. TFTC
Heading home from a long weekend with the parents-in-law and geo-caching as we go. TFTC
We had a lovely wander along this walking path before finding the cache. Thanks for the cache, it was a great place for one.
Today was a day of various activities in the limestone coast region. The morning began with Mount Gambier parkrun around the blue lake, a breakfast and farmers markets, and then geocaching to Penola to catch up at the Millicent mega promotion event. It was then geocaching back to Mount Gambier and finished off the day with a cave dive at Engelbrecht Cave East.
Who was Tom Little? This question will annoy me for some time now. On the bright side, I did find the cache after not a lot of time of looking, and still here muggles averted. The cache was in very good condition. Thanks mogni!

Found with earthlight and Gwen from The X-Trailers. Today the plan was to visit PMR Caves and afterwards cache around Mt Gambier but plans change
We started at Mt Gambier before crossing the border for PMR cave, back to cache more of the Mount, then moved onto Tarpeena, Nangwarry, Kalangadoo, Trihi, Mt Burr and finally out back of Rocky Camp before returning home. A nice casual day of caching with fabulous friends
This is one we found on our journey today. Another quick find and sign.
