Had a long hard look - 3 pairs of adult eyes plus two sets of geokid eyes. Nothing to be found.
Our first of 2 DNFs for the day. Hasn't been logged as found since January. Need checking???
Mmm, this one didn't start off very well.
My gps tried to take me through a no through road?
Would of been happy to leave my car there, but the owner of the nearest house came out and thought better of that idea.
Walked the 400m to the cache area, not 100% sure if I had the right area or not.
The only thing I found was a very flat, dried rabbit that possibly came from the hole under the tree.
Great spot, cheers juice box 14.

Out for a drive clearing out a few more caches in the local area. Took a little while to find in the overgrown vegetation. Really depends on where you enter the greenery, how quickly you find cache.
Thanks

Found it with one of the Junior members of the team whilst out on a day of caching with earthlight.

Came in the wrong way and there was a muggle there so went round the right way and he had gone. An easy enough find after that, thanks. Dry alright.
With bits of rubish around the area this one does not look out of place.

Had a bit of time to spare so so took the better half for a drive and slipped in a few caches TFTC
Found down by the empty creek, but I doubt it stayed empty for long given the massive storm we passed through on the way home

Spent the afternoon caching with rougewatermelon. Neighbourhood Watch is alive and well in Kanmantoo. Muggles offering to help the strangers. Luckily not near GZ at that time. We both found the bush at the same time (which is in a blaze of colour due to flowering at this time of the year) but it was i that got to this cache first. TFTC. beware the neighbours!
Found it with brisal5. after getting lost several times (my phone was out of battery so we had to rely on brisal5's car gps), we eventually found the place. brisal5 distracted one of the neighboring muggles whislt I rummaged around in a pile of logs. Brisal5 eventualy found it. TNLN
I think the neighbour at the end of the no through road has an idea about whats going on as we had a bit of a chat.The cache was easily found but the shrub was a bit trashed,I think some of the smaller children use it as a cubby house.tftc.
Lots of new homes and muggles, a nice lady said hello as we parked and went for a walk up the creek or was that down the creek. TNLNSL TFTC
[8)] This is a spot where you can't hide well!
Luckily there was no-one home today!
Quick sign and high-tail out of there...

I must of had cache blindness the last time I looked for this. This time it was an easy find.
I picked up a TB.

Looks like people have found this little town. Lots of houses are going up. TFTC Didn't see TB
Waldron decided to do some four wheel driving in the Corolla. I said NO! But he continued on. I should not have been worried. It was a Toyota and Glenn was behind the wheel.
Clear skies.

Ut oh, this is awkward - there's a guy out in his garden just across the creek.
We managed to duck in behind a bush without TOO MUCH suspicious - we hope.

A day of Caching at the Bridge,

It's just as well the creek is empty as geoD had the gCAV driving through it in the dark. Our miss ratio is becoming to high to sustain, so this is the last one for the night.
We'll be back past here for sure so until then . . . . .

I was up in the area doing some course checking for Scouts Rally SA and of course did some caching as well.
Took a little bit of finding in the rain today. TFTC.

Another built up location where you may drive your 'second' car through if it's old enough [xx(].
The dew hadn't been disturbed here yet today, so we're sure we're not following Everlasting, even though the date is the same [B)].
Took chef. Left badge. SL.
Thanks for one more Juice Box 14.

Took a bit of a detour on the way home from orienteering. Rewarded with a GC pickup today. Left a bendy man TFTC
Dog followed me to the cache and escorted me back to the car. Hope he is not a muggle-dog. Took Elephas MaximusSumatrensis geocoin.
Nice couple of hours out of the house. Lots of muggles out today, stopping us from collecting a couple of caches but had no troubles with this one. Thanks juice box 14.
Took yo yo and left 2 Geocoins. Elephas maximus and Meunster geocoin.

We were greeted on arrival by a very friendly muggle dog. He started to come with us but was distracted by the barking of a nearby canine. So, in peace, we made a quick search and located the cache. TFTC juice box 14
Nice do to be out with the boys looking for more spots!
Thanks for the cache!

As others have said, the bush is looking beautiful at the moment with such vivid colours. No muggles about this morning. Lots of bees, I wouldn't recommend this one if you're allergic to bees. SL. TFTC.
Found today while out caching with MtnLioness - a good size container, and cache is well guarded by bugs of the buzzing kind. TFTC SLTNLN
Found in the company of ParisLaura on a cache spree to Murray Bridge in an effort to help me reach my 1000
Thanx for the smilie!
Once I had the right angle, a Quick dive in for the cache, signed and replaced.
Smells lovely with all those blooms plus the Lovely Wattle tree nearby too!!
Wonderful LARGE container!

A nice location. No muggles about this am. Had to dodge the bees picking up the cache. TFTC.
New to caching today and this was our very first find! Was a little hard with all the flowers and some bee's but so excited to find our first cache! Thanks
a nice easy hide on the way home after a day of caching
thanks for the hide cheers imhidingsa

Indeed a tricky spot because of neibours if their outside but i had no trouble with that. if this creek was flowing and my fourby was running then i would love this place like a pig in mud. be careful with the bee's. A great cache, thanks juice box.
After reading description put on my work safety shirt and armed myself with some "flood mitigation " instruments and headed for GZ. Didn't need it as it was very quiet making for an easy find thanks to the spot on coords. TFTC
Whooo Hoooo !!!!! First to Find at 9.55am. This certainly will be a difficult cache if any of the neighbours in the nearby houses are out and about!! Luckily this morning all was very quiet. This took a little longer than i should as i was looking in what i thought would be the obvious spots a few metres away from the final location. When i trusted the GPS this became a quick find as the co-ordinates are spot on!!!
Took nothing.... Left YoYo. Thanks for another interesting cache JuiceBox14!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ....keep em coming
