Will Possibly Bring It Back At A Later Date But For Now I Will Archive It

With 11 DNF's since 28.08.2011 and only one find saying they had found it the previous year the owner appears to be uninterested in maintaining this cache even though they are still active cachers.

Looked in the obvious place - hollow of a tree but nothing was there. I suspect as the last few attempts were also DNFs that this one may be no longer.

did not find it

Our thanks anyway to misterdrewkittytoo.

Found this last year while camping near by but never logged it ( we had just started caching).
It was a clever hide but it's definitely gone. So it needs to be replaced or archived.
Hope you replace it coz it was a good one. Thanx

As this is a one by one cache and considering the number of DNF's perhaps this one should be checked on to see if it is still there

did not find

With odieodie & had no luck even with tools. Bugger but the breeze.was nice.

19/01/2012 17:02 On holiday in Encounter Bay from Melbourne. Out on a drive with Eagle Eye to get his 'L' plate driving hours up. I guess this is just a me-too cache log as I looked in all the likely locations, but no cigar.

CACHE CAN NOT BEEN FOUND. MIGHT NEED A REPLACEMENT.

Just noticed previous logs. no luck for me either. GPS put me next to some tree's and I searched all over the place. No Luck.
The owner might have to go and check this out.

Savvy the trackable sound guy passing through. http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=2784336

Coords put us in the middle of the 'road' in and a search to 20m out didn't reveal anything except hundreds of corellas.

No games being played today so no one about and 8 Set's of eyes searching high and low for at least 20mts, I think two conclusions can be drawn from this.
First: The cow family has lost its caching Mojo.
Second: The cache has gone walk about.

Another DNF for this cache I'm afraid. 4 of us had a good long look but no luck. No game in action this morning so we were able to have a good search.TFTC[^]

ANother one we gave a good ole crack at but no joy. Our afternoon was proving to have just as many DNF's as Finds

Nice little hide, cold weekday so not too many muggles around. TFTC.

Our 1st find for today, & got here before the footy started for today. SL TNLN TFTC

Grabbed this one as we ventured back from Victor Harbor. No midweek footy to be concerned about. Had to wait for a couple of minutes while a muggle and his mutt vacated the scene. So many trees, so many options. TFTC misterdrewkittytoo.

No footy tonight
TFTC misterdrewkittytoo

It was getting dark but I was eager to find it. Mission accomplished!!

Great hide no footy on today so pretty straightforward !!
TNLN Didn't sign log (didn't have a pen!!) TFTC

found whilst strolling with geograndson in the pusher...nice hide..!! ..but definately...! not on match day...TFTC

First find for the Hindmarsh Island and Goolwa day of caching. Snuck out while the breakfast was cooking in the local cafe. TFTC.

log replaced

Geokid found this one having banned geomum from looking unless she needed help ( geomum had too many finds!) Had to wait a couple of days as there were people camping on the oval over Easter. Was a quick find. TFTC

Camping literally 10 meters from the cache. Instant find before the tent was even up TFTC

Camping on the oval with Judizzle, Like Fruitcake and others from Blackwood. Log book was soggy. Easy find. TFTC

Came camping with the crew from Blackwood. Our tent was directly opposite the site!
Thanks for the hospitality once again Goolwa!
TFTC!

Found with judizzle. Log book was a little soggy. dried it out and placed it back. TFTC

All quiet so an easy find. Logbook very damp. Managed to scratch name on it but it needs replacing. TFTC misterdrewkittytoo

Log too wet. Unsignable. Took photo instead.

Nice quick one - log scroll wet - dried as best we could. Thanks misterdrewkittytoo

#481 4th of 8 in a run from Mt Barker to Victor Harbour. Carn the Pies (ANY Pies will do!). No muggles at all so the deed was soon done. Thanks misterdrewkittytoo.

Easy find once caravan moved out of area.
Lovely oval for a footy game.
TFTC

After waiting for some Grey Nomads to move their caravan away from oval we were quickly able to locate this one
tftc

Second time here and second time muggled out.

Despite the high forecast temperature the cricket was still on and the away team parked right next to gz.

I tried to outwait them but no luck.

Another time.

Easy find, just realized what the pies are. None around today except at the many bakerys in this town. Theres no shortage of food. We ate out for breaky and enjoyed the walk to each cache. Impressed with the Lions park with fountain and rotunda. Wouldn't have seen it if it weren't for our caching hobby.

easy find after muggler left

Easy find at night, disturbed some pigeons which flew out at M and gave him a bit of a fright! TFTC

Ahh yes a very familiar place. I've enjoyed many a good game here, on what would have to be one of the nicest ovals to run on in the state outside of league grounds.

All was quiet tonight though, and the find was nice and quick once A started looking.

TNLNSL

Found It!
Once I had worked out how to get around all the roadworks in Goolwa and to the oval it was an easy find!
TFTC

The train whizzed past and we cached the cache. A couple of choices and was found in spot 2. Clear skies from TeamAstro.

I remember camping on the oval for a folk festival back in the 80's. We had a great time.

Initially approached this one from the wrong direction, but once we sorted things out, we made a quick find with no muggles in sight. TNLN. Thanks misterdrewkittytoo.

Headed down to Port Elliot for the Seaside Three Event and of course grab some caches on the way down and the way home

Quick grab and sign. TFTC.

cute hide and good fun
TFTC drew and kitty!

Just our luck there was footy training on the oval and what side did they decide to warm down on,well of course you guessed.tftc

I am staying in Goolwa this week, as I do regularly. Today I decided to include the oval in my early-morning walk with my brother's little mutt.

Thank you for the cache. I am very familiar with the area having grown up here, but tend to just drive around the edges when I'm here now. A cache is just the thing to entice me to re-connect to particular places.

Very quick find early on a Monday morning!!! TFTC!!

Catching up on my logging. Visited this with Irac. Had a great weekend. TFTC

Found relatively easily once we figured out which item the GPS was pointing to. TFTC

In Goolwa today from Adelaide while my cousin's husband had to do a little job in town. Took the car and went for some caching in the meantime, it took a while to get nearby as I started off on the wrong side of the choochoo-track. After that it went smooth, found the cache and logged at 10.30am. Sports ground was quiet. TFTC from a travelling Dutchman!

grandson loved it....

Nice hide watch for glass in tree hollow

Nice easy find on a cold day in Goolwa TFTCSLB

Nice and easy close to home.TFTC

Nice find - reminded me of one of my own TFTC SLB

Went into Goolwa to get some bread and find a travelling gnome at one of my own caches and saw there was not a muggle in sight at the oval. Drove in and around to the right side of the location. Not a muggle anywhere, not even kids kicking their new Xmas footys. Found easily.

Signed the log book.

TFTC

Quick and easy find once we were on the right side of the fence. Group effort with ramp100, and ajax101. A few muggles around for Christmas. Thanks for the cache.

Found with Gravybaby & Ajax101,

FTF Find with Schatzsuche on Saturday arvo before the weather turned lousy. Came down to catch up with friends and scope out some ideas for the Seaside Event in January. Quick find, but had to wait and be steatthy while the cricket was on. Stayed a few overs, cracked a stubby and sat on the bonnet as a spectator then used the action on the ground as a decoy to grab the cache [:p]

TFTC
Cheers and Happy Hunting from Southern Cross Caching

Yay! FTF grabbed with Southern Cross Caching on the way to Port Elliot for the weekend.
