Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
Pretty sure I was looking in the right spot. Gz was right on the leader lookers. Unless it is deeper than I cared to put my hand in the mud that is there after last nights rain! Poked aroundmwith a stick too, looks like others have recently been doing the same.
This was a fun little sculpture in a deserted park (when we were there) this morning [^].
Would have been a good time to play tennis, as the courts were totally in shade .
TN. Left thong. SL.
Thanks Cooper & Co.

Had found this one before becoming a cacher, now officially found and logged
Very quiet here early on a Sunday morning, allowing for an uninterupted search. Thanks for the cache Cooper & Co.
What a lovely little park - never been to this area before and there were no muggles here so quite an easy find by the geokids. **No geocoin in the cache **

ADE11-12. This one was a bit hard to extract, and it had some ants to keep it company. Thanks.

A quick find while out showing one of my sisters what this Geocaching was all about! She lives less than 500m away and didn't know about the fruit and veg thing!
The ants didnt bother us too much!

I was in the area for a job. A quick detour and a quick find. The area wet but the cache is dry. SL and pick up a geo coin. TFTC.

Another hidden park in suburbia, complete with the mandatory picnic ants.
Found and signed.
Found and signed.
The park was an unexpected find in suburbia, glad I had a reason to come here else I would never have stopped.
After a moments hesitation I went 'fishing' blindly for the cache and came up with the goods.
Cache stash area was soaking wet although the log seemed ok. May be worth going with the magnet idea and reconsider the difficulty.

Over on a geocaching holiday. Enjoying my tour around Adelaide travelling between caches. Soon had this one located. SL TFTC
A quick find early on a Sunday morning.
Nice hide although a magnet would make it unmuggable.

Yay it's finally back! Take the geo kids to this play ground all the time and it's finally back. Went for the geocoin but alas not there. Took badge and left heart badge
Thanks you, Cooper & Co. Nice hide. Ants know where to hide their valuables.
By the way, a little advice for fellow mates: try to find it in a sunny day, it will be easier!

Yay first in new log. It's definitely here! Geo kids were very useful as a distraction in this high muggle area.
Rode around in this area today while out chasing a ftf to no avail. didn't realize this was offline and fosicked around needlessly.
Will be back.
Will be back.
Went ther etoday and found the location but didn't realise that the cache was unavailiable and of course wasn't there.
Found this one (sort of)
Actually didn't find the cache container just various remnants of a log book drifting around the garden area..
Collected all that I could find and rehid (PM'd cache owner with exact location)
Very neat sculpture...

Thanks Cooper & Co for bring us to see the Hymenoptera...

We strolled past this one the day prior on our way to the peace garden, but the park was chock-a-block with families enjoying the day off and the lovely weather. Visiting the next day had us find a completely empty park. TNLN, signed log.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
What an awesome hidden playground, If i lived near here I would definately throw a kids birthday here with the tennis courts and BBQ. TFTC SLTNLN
A quick find during Pa Kettle's late lunch break. An interesting little park. Love the ants.
Thanks Cooper & Co.
Thanks Cooper & Co.
With Lava12 - loves this structure so cute ants. Signed the log. Thanks Cooper & Co.
At last I found it with my torch as it was my third visit. The park is very popular with muggles. Cool ants.
Thanks Cooper & Co for the cache.

If I ever see a live ant this big I won't be caching anywhere near it - I'll be running the other way... nice park!
Found with Norfbiartch and Bigblueal very nice location and loved the statue! took fly - left medal TFTC!
They are so cute. Kids had a play on the great playground while we sneakily retrieved the cache, when we opened it the little flies gave us a mini scare. Quite funny really, TFTC
Pleasant morning meeting with Flipper & Co to talk pathtags, followed by a few hours geocaching with wessarah. Ants have been mentioned in a few caches visited today, we also had to avoid bees elsewhere, so the threat of BIG ants was a worry... the biggest I've seen or ever want to see again. TFTC
Wow, what cool ants, they would make great props for our Antsy Hill cache ( see http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=a60672a2-5fc5-4b10-9876-9657419b5914) .
Luckily no pesky mini muggles around in the middle of the day for 2 reasons: 1- so we could find the cache, and 2- so we could have a go on that great play equipment. Boy it is funny how you can spin for ages on this type of equipment as a kid but the world spins madly when you have a short go as an old fogey.

Loved the ants here, and a great little park too. Luckily only a few people about and far enough away that we didn't attract any attention.
What a pleasant little park, I did not know it existed.Thanks for a great place to visit early in the morning.

Friends used to live in Reynell St. and we often noted the short dead-end street when we left their house. Never realised it led to such a beautiful little park, although I do suspect from the playground it has been done up since they moved.
Taking a different route home found I was very closeby, so stopped for the cache, and it was a wonderful little break. Found I didn't have the coordinates loaded in the GPSr and guessed where GZ should be. Entering the coordinates in just confirmed it. A nice quick find, and then retired to the handy seat to log and just enjoy the sunshine and peace with no one around. A lovely short break.
TNLN, Thanks for bringing me here, and TFTC Cooper & Co
Cheers

found it just before basketball training ... good thing i live nearby tftc tnln
Find 1160
Found BFE Style Without a GPS in the only place I looked.
The park looks in much better condition than when I last saw it over 30 years ago.
Originally Reynell Street bisected the park.
I was a student at the nearby Croydon High School and also played lacrosse on the oval for West Torrens after my school days.
Reynell Street was named after John Reynell who established the vineyards at Reynella.
Thanks to Cooper & Co for the cache and the memories.

This cache reminds me of the song our daughter sings all the time after watching Madagascar 2 "I'm a fish out of water lying out in the jungle. I leave my Peoples, my peoples, take me to my peoples".
Anyway, these were indeed giant bullants and we were very careful not to disturb them too much whilst retrieving the cache.
Btw did not see any travel bugs or geocoins!?

Arrived with EsromL to find Knipper Mum, Son and Daughter logging this cache at about 3.55PM. Second time we have met at a cache today! Looks like this one has been averaging a find less than about every 10 minutes or so since it was published this afternoon. Great little park and sculptures. Thanks Cooper & Co for the cache.
Nice find to finish off the day. Cool playground. Great first cache Cooper & Co. I enjoyed meeting you at the 444 - Let's Celebrate event today.
Well there were lots of people here before us and we thought we left quickly! Third for us today but it was a great park to visit regardless. We had a great time chatting with EsromL and e.gregory1 at the cache as well and after chatting with Mrs Cooper at the event today it was nice to be able to put the cache and the person together for a change! TFTC and the fun outing.
