We headed out for an afternoon walk and grabbed a couple caches while out and about.
Unfortunately the lid was off the cache container and it was full to the brim with water, so couldn't sign the log ;(
A nice walk through here. TFTC!

In an area with warbling magpies lots of trees and the general serenity of nature, devoid of Muggles and people in general, what better way to enjoy my day exercising and caching as well [^]
The weather was beginning to 'Cave In' with drizzle showers beginning to increase rather than dissipate, [I think I got that one wrong, No way i'd pass as a budding "Keith Martyn" [:o] ] i was wondering just how far into my cache cluster grab i would get before getting drenched or 'Satch' {Saturated} as a mate puts it
This one was found quickly and it's log was signed at 11:20 on Sat 18 April 2020.
{Swapped the Coles Mini-Shop noodles cup for a Golf Ball }
All is good and dry within the cache

Apart from the dog barking and a near by house owner starring at me this was an easy find, tin is a bit worse for wear
Today I started off by collecting some caches around where I am currently living at craigburn farm and aberfoyle park. A nice morning out walking around the local area. I soon made a decision to head to the south east for the rest of the day and collect the odd cache here and there before arriving at millicent for the evening. Was great to be able to pick up an FTF along the way as well. Overall 27 finds for the day.
Thanks for the cache

Yah. Find to Mummy nerd. Everyone charging ahead. Stood to one side found it. Thanks for the hide. Never knew this was here
How did it take me so long to find that!? Must’ve approached from the wrong angle.. beware of the ants I was finding them for a while after
Helping Ratbag 1 continue his A-Z 0-9 challenge finds today [^]
Out for a very careful walk with a bung knee.... but coming out here has really lifted my spirits. A special thank you <3
Easy find, Ratbag 1 spotted it first

We used to walk in this area all the time as kids. Nice to come back. Found in good condition. I probably should have moved further away from the find to avoid the ants that ran up my legs though! Tftc
Found on an afternoon walk with the geo-pup. Interesting unloved area, the tin was full of ants... attracted to the previous contents ?. TFTC
What a lovely evening in spring. Birds are chirping and I’m out on my trusty bike.
There was probably an easier way to approach but I had my bike and had just been to the “Boulders” cache nearby.
I wasn’t sure if I was happy to get the smiley or if I would’ve preferred the original contents of the container.

Thanks. Did we happen to see you near here wearing a red jumper today liked this find. Good treasure didn't take any
Nice easy find in a beautiful area. After 2 dnfs this morning was very happy to find this. Nobody had signed the log for 6 months wow!!!! Clearly it had not been moved and a few bugs have made home underneath it. A nice big cache with some treasure inside all in good condition.

An after work Wednesday caching run with Moneydork and locus cache where we hit up the south again, to grab some of the new listings as well as avenge some old DNF's.
A quick stroll across the river covering, up the rather steep enbankment and then a fence hop and this one was ticked off the unfound list.
This was find number 9 of 15 for the evening for me. TFTC Lava12!

A nice quick find on a sunny Thursday afternoon. I'm sure it's not the first time the contests of this cache have been enjoyed.

Out for a walk exploring the area after moving in not long ago. Decided to find oit where I was by using my caching app and lo and behold I was 20m away from a hide. I made short work of finding it and the hint instantly made sense. TNLNSL TFTC.
Once we worked out the best way to access the area, it was a short walk. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Lava12 for the cache.
Came down along the school fenceline track .
That's a big pipeline you see on the right as you walk down the hill .
TNLNSL.
Definitely a different side of the winery.
Thanks again Lava12.

Found with cachehunter2207 and zoe the dog. Early morning Australia day cacheing session before hottest 100 starts
Loved the cache container - havent seen one of these yet - very appropriate - signed log
Great cache. And great spot for such a cache. Enjoyed my walk and just kept walking. TFTC
Found with vj187 on a glorious spring day. We slipped and slid to the site. TFTC
Found with 2011*turtle. Finding the cache explained the hint. Left TB - an appropriate place for this trackable. TFTC
My third cache for the day! Another nice area. The cache container is so cool!! TFTC!
Was a bit dissappointed that the cache was not full
Nice secluded area however the nearby dogs was watching my every move.

Interesting little spot. Big pond, old bridge, water pipeline, and a good sized cache to find. Another smiley on my map. TFTC.
Found It!
Quick find and now I've seen the front and back of this winery. Interesting old bridge nearby!

Out for a little caching run before dinner with Madham02 and THEJORDS121. This was the last one for the evening as it was now getting dark and we were getting hungry.
Headed towards GZ and I had a pretty good idea of where it would be as we walked towards it, but let the others find it. Good hint.
Thanks for another great cache lava.

Late and hungry but had to get this one with DTE ( Dora the Explorer) JJ52 and THE JORDS121 - good one lava 12
Found during a caching foray into the southern suburbs. Strangely the swaps bag was completely full of water, while the ziploc bag containing the logbook was mostly dry. Drained out the liquid before replacement, but some parts are still quite wet. Thanks for the cache lava12!
Another quick stop while wandering through the area this evening [^]

day out With Firesafe CP and Locus cache Having a lot of laughs and a good time
nice eaasy find
nice eaasy find
This was another case of a full on day caching!
I was out with the boys: firesafe, CP Wanderer and Honeysucker and had the luxury of driving a Prado with free diesel for the day, thanks to a friend of mine [^]
Somehow, though, Prado got interpreted as Tarago by our usually extremely competent navigator and so we mainly did urban caches rather than rural ones where the vehicle's potential could have been more full utilised but it was still a hugely fun day and all up I attempted to locus cache at 95 caches: 89 successfully and 6 DNFs
Thank you, gentlemen, for the company and laughs and huge congratulations to firesafe on his 10,000th cache [^] [^] .....which just happened to require a 23km fast run from Aldinga to Mt Compass for the FTF (and our 2nd FTF for the day [^] ). Belated congratulations to Honeysucker, too, for his 6,000th find [^]
Nice little walk through the grass to get to the cache and good to have a couple of caches within walking distance of each other

Today I teamed up with Honeysucker, Locus Cache and CP Wanderer for a 16 hour caching day caching areas south of Adelaide finishing up in Victor Harbor around 2:30 am.
We hit around 100 caches on the day, even making 2 FTF runs (one in Aberfoyle Park from Hallet Cove and the other at Mt Compass from Aldinga). The second FTF coincided with my 10000 find.
Plenty of water flowing through the nearby pipes. TFTC.

Mr Tardis was on a caching trip down in the southern suburbs today. I took a couple of minutes to locate this one - I must have been suffering from cache blindness. A nice container, but Mr Tardis doesn't touch the stuff (unless there is a logbook inside - which there was ).
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Lava12.

#1453 - Out on an afternoon caching trip, found this one with out too many problems, TFTC
Once again geodad found the cache while I was still trying to figure out where I was. some dissapointment that the bottle was no where to be found. Thanks for the fun
Out with the dog and on a cache hunt. What a way to spend a pleasant late afternoon.
Not sure how the name of this cache came to be, maybe it has something to do with the container!?

I was feeling a bit low as I had had a few dnfs. Always nice to get a Lava12 cache with accurate co-ords.
Could really have done with some of what was in the cache container.

Nice easy find while taking a walk with geo-daughter and her geo-labrador. TFTC
Easy find. There was no trackable though. There was a froggy saying hello to us. TFTC!!
Found it! But trackable wasn't there :O wasn't too hard though - just a bit muddy
You are one of my mob who enjoys the better things in life - long as it's a single!! TFTC & thoughts Lava 12.
Love a bit of Mr Walkers finest but I was most upset to find the original contents missing. It might have taken the edge of the chilly night air. If the original contents had been consumed in short time just about anybody would have fallen off the back of Horndale. TFTC lava12.
Two from two to my partner tonight... Grrrr my turn next hopefully!!! Thanks for the cache

There was little chance of falling far here when compared to the caches I found in the Flinders last weekend.
Grabbed Cheeky monkey TB.
