Sir_spectre has been unwell for a few weeks, so we decided to take a weekend off from chores and go and have some fun. many caches were found, many caches now have new logsheets a couple of containers even got replaced. As sir_spectre had his car, so we tackled some of the dirt roads and got his car dirty.Thanks to Tk2 from mogni

On my way to Whyalla to celebrate a special friends birthday and find a few caches along the way. This is my first find on my journey.A quick easy one.TFTC Tk2Keep smiling

Last leg of our Lameroo adventure. Cemetery caches are one of my favourites. You can learn so much about the surrounding area.

Nice easy trailer parking. We had cache retrieved quickly and signed. We then spent a solid half hour visiting the residents and pondering some of the tragedys we could see. TFTC!

Still on our way home tftc

Quick find here today on my way past, cache was easily found and is all goodWith a few days off I headed over to the northern Eyre peninsula for a 2 night stay in Whyalla, my main aim for the few days was the FITG and the FTF trail plus finding a few caches here and there along the way. Just under 300 caches found for the trip. Thanks for the cache

A few days in Port Pirie with the muggle Mrs exploring the town and seeking out whatever hides I can.


All caches were is good condition unless stated otherwise.

Whilst the muggle Mrs looked around the headstones, Mr Adder arrived at GZ to make the find sign and return.


Thank you for the cache Tk2 Find Number 10609 on 4/07/2023

After wandering around W.A. for the last 3 months caravanning, caching and hunting wildflowers, we are slowly making our way home to Adelaide. Always stay here at Laurie Park and go into Pirie to get the Pickled Seafood. Too windy to travel so decided to cache instead. T.F.T.C.

A nice tricky find. Almost had us bluff. TFTC Tk2

Nearly had us fooled. Great hide. Tftc.

Woke up to a chilly morning - hoping it’s going to warm up though. Another day exploring Port Pirie and surrounds with iluvtrekking. Beautifully kept cemetery. Love the gates. Thanks Tk2

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. We are enjoying our time travelling SA. Fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs. Thanks to all the COs for taking us on a geo-guided tour.

Took a little bit to find but found it

A good ol flash from the past

I feel truly enlightened! tftc

A quick find here, used a stick to make sure nothing dodgy was hiding inside.

Signed and replaced, thank you!

Day 3 of my little adventure. Finally time to get out and explore again. Today had me travelling from Tanunda to Arno Bay. A long day on the road, loved it.

Found on a trip to Crystal Brook and Port Pirie with Team Waldron for a few days. It rained steadily for the morning but gradually eased by mid afternoon. The aim for the weekend was to find as many caches as possible in the area which we accomplished with damp clothes, soggy shoes and a muddy car. Thanks for the cache Tk2!

bit of a look around found it and it was very smart one of that

hello

TFTC

Found after after short search and getting a little tyred, soon had cache in hand. TFTC. Left a pathtag for next finder.

earthlight wanted a drive to Kadina for some geocaching and to place an adv lab there[^] and I sure wasn't saying no
We had a big day starting about 9am I dropped earthlight back at her home about midnight[|)][xx(][|)]
Believe it or not though, we never got to Kadina Port Wakefield got an adv lab instead[^]
On our way home, we had AMAZING fish and chips for tea in Port Pirie at the 'Church of Fish and Chips' run by Spirou Seafood and Salad[:X][^][:X][:X][^][:X] Delicious![:X][^][:X] You know the old 'Port Wakefield for a hamburger' drive[?] I think it's just become a 'Port Pirie for fish and chips drive'[^][^]
Once earthlight was home, Rex and I went to spend another hour or two at Hunting Ryan[?][^]
My total was 34 cache finds and only 2 DNFs so I was happy[^]

Some awesome sights seen[^], great back roads travelled (some more slippery than others especially after rain showers passed overhead) and Rex had a ball running some roads and chasing vermin out of cemeteries[^]
We saw lots of 'old schools or sites'[^], entered tiny townships and learned lots of history[^]
It was great to be out in the country and finding caches with good company[^] and as always, geocaches showed us things we never would have seen otherwise[^][:X][^]

Thank you to all of the CO's who gave us a reason to be out and about[^][:X][^]

Thank you for bringing us to this lovely resting place.

Got stuck into the new year today with Mr Froghoppin,
a nice drive and cache hunt on a cool rainy day!
Dead people everywhere.
And quite a bit of history with them
tftc Tk2

The reception with the gps was not good, so this one was a bit tricky.
Will give it a try another time.

Returning to port to pick up the broken camper, decided on the back way in and a couple of caches. Have seen a fair few cemeteries over the past week. This one shone the light on warnertown history. Tftc

first cemetery cache of the day and the holiday. quick find
Day 1
Adelaide to port Augusta.
This trip saw me travel to Maralinga to do the tour of the nuclear test site then up the Googs track, past lake Gairdner on to Mount Ive station, then in to the Gawler Rangers and finally hiking up Mount Remarkable before heading home.

Hi there Tk2. This cache was found on a day out caching and touring about Port Pirie. The container and log are in good condition - SL. Thanks to Tk2 for this cache - our find # 6217.

On the way to Perth, detour - wander, search, spotted and signed the log as EV. Thanks TK2

Stopped by and visited near the eternally sleepy people. It’s blowing a gale today, so I’m glad it was a quick find.

Thanks for the cache Tk2.

A quick find. The last cache before finding tonight's accommodation. TFTC Tk2.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Was travelling past for work and needed a driving break and saw this one on the map was not too far from the main road. So made the small detour into the area. Parked nearby and wandered over to GZ and quickly located the cache. Extracted log signed and replaced. First find for this year.
Gratias pro cache Tk2

Took a little while, but good clue

Found it. Nice clue.

TFTC, SL, TNLN. Watch out for the march flies.

A Good Friday Cache hunt. TFTC

Hi there Tk2.

We found your cache **"Warnertown Cemetery"** at 11:28:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 15966).

We cached around Gladstone, Port Pirie and Napperby today. On our trek we found a variety of container types. & ended up finding 32 caches with 0 DNF's.

Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

#6419 - 12:05; Day 6 of the Alice Mega Road Trip with Sol de lune and now albida33 who joined us this morning for the rest of the trip, so most logs were signed S.A.L. as a result. After a second night in Burra, we were now caching our way to Port Augusta via Spalding, Gulnare, Crystal Brook, Port Pirie, Napperby, Weeroona Island and Baroota. One of many quaint cemeteries we have visited so far this trip. I expect there will be many more! TFTC Tk2

Alice trip 2017. Day 4. Today was the day I caught up with Sol de Lune and LuckL10n in Burra. We joined forces for the journey to Alice Springs. Today was a short trip to Pt Augusta collecting plenty of caches along the way.

Thanks.

Albida

On the road to the Alice Springs Mega with LuckyL10n and Albida33. We headed through Burra and Port Pirie before arriving in Port Augusta for the trek up the highway. Collected a good number of caches and all were found with no issues and the logs were soon signed. (Some logs were signed as S.A.L. to save space.)

Thanks for the cache and fun in getting to it and finding it.

Got this one on our pilgimage to Alice Springs - it was a good opportunity to get out of the car for a while. Thanks to Tk2 for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

Small detour to get this one, but figured it was worth it. This one was promptly found by Lea. Tftc

In Port Pirie for a few days on our way to the mega in Alice Springs. TFTC

Port Pirie
Have booked into the caravan park for a couple of nights. We sure need it with the outside temperature of 45degrees.
After arriving we did some caching in the town area before returning to the caravan for lunch.
In the afternoon we headed north to Weeroona & then home by Scenic Drive. A great tikik tour of the area.
Thanks for placing this cache Tk2

Quick find in an interesting place. Loved the recycled cache. TFTC

TFTC Tk2

Found the cache Thanks

Quick find. Nice to get off the highway and stretch the legs

Thanks for this cache. Picking up a few with the family to kill a few hours on a Saturday.

As i make my way from Adelaide to Wudinna for work tomorrow i grab a few caches along the way to help break the drive, love the cemetery hides. TFTC

Catching up with some late logs, therefore this unfortunately is going to be one of 'those logs'. I apologize in advance for the generic log, A combination of limited time and too many to log dictates that a generic log is best. I have enjoyed the hunt and being outdoors in this great country of ours, partaking in a pastime that I thoroughly enjoy. I usually head out by myself, but I thank those that have had the misfortune of my company in some of these ventures.

Thanks Tk2 for placing this cache.

We found this one late in the afternoon and then headed for camp. Mrs M loves these places.

Find #7316**

Day two of the Nullarbor experience was here. I again joined the convoy of Alansee, Maccamob and Mica Paramedic for another day of fun, heading for Port Augusta, then I would do my own thing for a few days before joining them again in Esperance. Today, we would drive from Murray Bridge, to Port Augusta via Gawler, just over 380km of driving. We would log our finds as MAAM, AMMA, AMAM or some other combination of those 4 letters.

A quick stop for us to check out this cemetary. Nothing too difficult here. Lots of big bull ants tho.

**Thanks to Tk2 for the cache. TNLN**

Found by Mary & David, in convoy with micaparamedic, Alansee and ahomburg (logged as MAAM), at 1605. Mary has always been fascinated by cemeteries and that earns you a favourite point. The art of the stonemason, the symbolism and the message in every carving, the social history and Australiana tick every box. Our thanks to Tk2.

Nearly missed this one as did not have on our list to do
Checked phone and this one popped up so a quick detour and we headed to locate the cache
If it had not been in a cemetery probably would have driven passed
Cemetery's are my second favourite place to look for a cache
Cache was found in rather obvious spot
Cache all good
Like the recycle style of the cache

Found on our way south. TFTC

Found on a weekend trip over from whyalla with ferret52. TFTC!

On a trip from Warragul to Iron Knob to fill in some gaps to qualify for The Well Travelled Cacher Challenge ! Vic
Thanks for this cache to fill this gap.

Inappropriate to have a cache in a cemetery

No luck with this one. What is a PM cache?

This entry was edited by tamster72 on Sunday, 23 August 2015 at 07:49:38 UTC.

The Mot was spending time looking at the headstones when a huge snake slithered pass her . At that stage I was searching for the cache, immediately I grabbed a large stick and turned over every blade of grass very gingerly. After some 10567 blades of grass I eventually found the cache. The snake and the cache certainly lit up my day! A favourite is well earned.

Hidden in there nice and deep. TFTC

Last one for the day,tftc

You lit up our life for our first find of the day.
All good and we said hello to Mr Tucker.

Thanks again Tk2

Little Squirell

Found It!
Bloody PM only caches! Spawn of Satan! Burn down the PM only caches and exterminate anyone who conceives them! and so on...
TFTC anyway

ps. is the neighbour ever going to harvest his barley crop?!

The Noodler has taking me out for a day geocaching having fun my first day out.

A fun find at yet another cemetery that I did not know about (YACIDKA)

TFTC and a great little back road to escape the highway on [^]

Loved it SL TFTC

Gotta stop at the cemetery cache with my Bestie...
Cool spot,

Thanks for the stop on our way home...

Found by The Noodler. TNLN. Loved the cache container. Real recycling! A favourite point for the container. Found the grave of an old family friend here also.

Found as a part of TheKellyGang, writing this as a genaric log as I was a part of TheKellyGang and am now out on my own.
If you do not agree with this you are more than welcome to delete the log.

Touring Australia having left Perth in late February we are leisurely touring South Australia after having attended Oz Mega.

Camped at Murray Town in luxury with power and water we decided to head to Melrose and take the Bridle/4x4 trail to Port Germain today.

Another quick find on our way home.

TFTC Tk2

Nice day out driving with delta ducks and shark bait 2005. Tftc

Out for a drive in the area with the extended family. An easy find. Thanks for bringing us here as would have known it was here otherwise. Certainly the bullants have made themselves at home!. TFTC

Thanks for the cache Tk2

Love the cache container. Fave for me.
Bit overgrown but didnt know this existed. Thanks for bringing Genghicat & myself here. TFTC

Nice little area which proved a little difficult to find with the lack of signage. Wasn't until we got realy close that we even realised the cemetery was here. It's been on our PP hit list for a while, so it was good to finally check it off.

TFTC.

On our way to Oz Mega, we were racking up the numbers as we go. Another easy find.

Cheers

Bundy

On the way back from Pt Pirie, so we thought we would grab a couple of caches on the way home.
Must remember to wear shoes when caching...the bullants fancied my newly painted toenails
TFTC

I lived the first 23 years of my life near here
and we used to go rabbit trapping here
when we were kids. Back then the place was full
of burrows and sand hills and really untidy.

Thanks Tk2 for bringing me back here, the place
is a lot better now.

Took nothing and left a small match stick eraser.

We found the black beetles keeping the cache company as well .
Walked past the JT headstone when we were there, but looked it up on the Aus Cemeteries site [8]. Have to wonder why they weren't buried together in Blyth [?].
Illuminating container . TNLNSL.
Thanks Tk2.

called in here looking for a spot to hide a cache and came across this one not even knowing a cache lie here... SL TFTC,

convinced me to become a premium member!

Found on a day out enjoying the Sunshine TFTC

4 of 12 Finds, 4 DNF's on this run

Took a few minutes to get the 60CSX to settle down, but excellent coordinates put me right on it. LOTS of big black beetles in hiding spot. Container still intact and dry.
