23-Apr-22
This Anzac Day weekend, [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) and I were back in Adelaide whilst attending a wedding. We took the opportunity to catch up with family and friends introducing our newest member of *Team Warren*, and where we could, we visited a few geocaches that I had either missed during my residency, or new geocaches published in the last 1.5 years.

Today, we began our day with a Tardy Mouse event catch-up at Mile End, before [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) caught up with friends in Lightsview. I was then able to find a few geocaches in the vicinity and North Adelaide's park lands, before heading back to our accommodation for the afternoon's wedding plans.

Our wedding was nearby at Glen Ewin Estate, and after attending the ceremony and reception, we were on our way home when I managed [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) in making this traditional cache on our way home. There was a good parking opportunity nearby, and once I entered the structure, the cache was a quick find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks earthlight for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

It's the season for cherry picking. Today the whole family visited a cherry farm near Kersbrook, and tried some caches on the way. We found 12 traditional caches, and 1 DNF due to muggle activity.
This was the second find for today.
It was an easy find, especially with the help of hint.
The cache container was covered by spider webs.
Signed the log, and put the cache back.
Thanks for the cache, earthlight.

An early start today setting my alarms for ridiculous time so I could attend the breakfast event and arrived after gridge but before anyone else, so that was a good start to the day. [^]
I had a big day planned with this event followed by the CITO then caching with locus cache and earthlight. Big Grin
After a nice strong coffee I was awake and ready for the day which didn't look too good weatherwise, but the rain stopped long enough for us to collect a few bags of rubbish at the CITO. It was very cold and windy but the rain held off for most of the day and we had a fun day caching our way to the hills after picking eathlight up. We managed to get quite a few multis, a couple of puzzles and various trads that we happened to be driving past that one or other of us hadn't found. Cool
After picking earthlight up we found a few caches close by before deciding that we would head towards Houghton. [^]
We stopped here so I could find this cache and as it turns out the cache was missing so the CO was able to replace it and I got to stamp the log. Cool
Thanks for the cache earthlight. Smile

As the weather was nice today, the youngest of the Famous IV and I decided to grab some caches in the hills...and a few along the way. All up 15 caches were found and we had time for chips and stout at the Inglewood Inn and pizza at Glen Ewin Estate as well. The only disappointment for the trip was they weren't serving scones and tea at Newmann's Nursery. The country was looking good, the caches were in good condition and the sun shone upon us. TFTC
 
19-Apr-20
After literally thinking 'Where would they put it?', turns out it was right where I thought it would be. TFTC!
 
29-Feb-20
Second time lucky. Geopartner felt he knew where it was and he was right. Grabbed on way home from delightful lunch at Glen Ewin Estate. Thanx

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.

We now find our selves in the big smoke! So many more caches to find. Booked into the local caravan park for a week, hopefully doing some urban caching while here.

Australia Day, and we set off to the pub in Birdwood for lunch with family, and of course, picking up the ones on the way up the windy hill that we missed yesterday.

We both searched for quite a while, then Mr D went back to the geomobile for gloves and torch. A quick flick the torch showed us a well cammoed cache. Thanks earthlight

A quick stop off on the side of the road, I liked the hint as there is no seat, a quick and easy find.

Out this morning for a drive up to Forreston to do some training preparation for a cycling tour in 2 weeks (tour of Mansfield) I decided to grab a few caches along the way and the trip back that I missed a few days ago and also duck into Morialta Conservation park to collect the virtual. Not many muggles to be seen at 7am of the day in the hills.

Thanks for the cache.

I pulled up in the warm Geo-Mobile to this one and went over to make the find.... that's what I thought [:o] "Try reading the hint and looking closer at the co-ords" I said to myself [:o)] The find was swift after that lol.

Every Christmas, I (Mr C) always has a bro day out, caching with my brother, Slarps. After an eventful, and stormy night we nearly decided to pull the pin on todays adventure, but with the sun out and no power, we set of on a caching run from Modbury to Mount Torrens.

Most of the finds were straight forward, others took a little time searching for, and surprisingly only 2 or 3 with soggy log books.

Thanks to all who placed them, from the one offs to the power trails, we both enjoyed the day out

(Sorry for the generic logs)
