Glad to have turned this one into a yellow smile Container wet and broken, log mouldy. Replaced it with a new container and log.Still micro size
Heading back east and visiting some of the smaller towns. This one was a bit wet after last night rain and broken container. Dried out best we could. Tftc
Our second find for the new year.A good way to work off a pub meal is to walk around geocaching. SL TFTC
Found while going to the nearby sheep auction. Nice easy cache, good for a park and grab. Thank you!
Lunch stop pretty area. Walked under the subway just cause.
Why not get a pasty for lunch in Peterborough then head found to cache for today in Jamestown. Really well lived town. Cache all good.

Travelling with richlink from Perth to Darwin up along the west coast and home again through the centre and the Nullarbor, picking up caches as we go. We made the find here. Thanks chrispy89.
Travelling with iluvtrekking up the WA coast to Darwin, down the Centre and in the Flinders. Basing ourselves in Peterborough for a few days to grab finds in the surrounds. Thanks crispy89
TFTC the container was quite smooshed and contained a mashed and mouldy log as well as the current (damp) log sheet. We’ve done some first aid and it’s in better shape now. ️
Left the van at Spalding and caching around Jamestown, quick find here, another in the silo series, tftc
Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".
So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.
**Thanks to chrispy89 for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

Found during a caching trip to SA's mid north staying at Orroroo for two nights and Jamestown for one night. Spent the morning caching around Jamestown before heading for home. Thanks for the cache chrispy89!
Travelling from Robertstown to Murray Town, we stopped for a walk around Jamestown. This cache was found out in the open, so I signed the log and hid it where the GPS said it should be hidden.
The Non Wangaratta Event Tour 2021!
Covid has postponed the Mega in Victoria until January but leave had been granted for AnyMules to attend with me and Bushfire. So Anymules and I went on a tour to Eyre Peninsular and mid north South Australia instead whilst Bushfire joined us in spirit only as covid meant he couldn't come here either. Not needing anything for my yearly goals I hoped I didn't add too many to the DNFs [B)]
DAY 5: Exploring some mid north towns.
Of course we had to visit the silos whilst in town. This was why. Another Chrispy silo cache in the bag.
Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers from over fifty to single digits. That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]
***Thanks chrispy89 for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. ***

Great day of caching with Deltaducks. Grabbed this one as we passed through Jamestown. Nice bit of history. Quick find but felt a bit exposed here. Luckily very quiet this morning. Tftc
Out for a drive in the area today to grab a few caches to check off our Hidden Calendar. Was very close to this one after collecting others nearby so why wouldn't we get this one too. Well the true story would be we wanted to grab the nearby virtual, missed the turn off, so did a loop around the block and this one came us as nearby - so why not grab this one lol. A neat hide.

We have been travelling around this great country, calling into see many different places,
now is a quick chance on the computer to catch up with logs and to put some smileys on the map for where we have been.
Thanks to all the COs for some great finds.

Hopefully one day these may be painted
It's great to be able to travel and see so many quaint little country towns.
As we meander down towards GeoVenture 2020 (in 2021), Millicent, we stopped to put a smiley here.
It's wonderful to explore SA through the eyes of a Geocacher,
especially when it takes us to such interesting places.
We found your cache and with signing duties done and dusted,
we replace the cache as found.
Thanks for sharing this interesting location.

We travelled from Portland Victoria across to WA to see our daughter in Perth. Now we are slowly heading home via Yallingup, Denmark and Esperance. Having now crossed back into SA we stayed a night in Streaky Bay, Whyalla for three nights of miserable weather and now we have about 3 nights to get back home.
Today we travelled from Whyalla to Jamestown.
After setting up camp we headed out to visit a couple of the local spots of interest.
Thanks for showing us this part of the world chrispy89

In Peterborough for the weekend with Bron, a occasional muggle cacher...
Today was the last day of our trip but before heading for home we had a few more caches to get...just one more
We had just finished dinner and not able to locate the cache at the park where we ate so this was the very last one before we thought we had better make our way home as it was going to be 11pm before we get there...
A quickly found cache...might have to come back some time to look at the Museum when it is open...

This weekend, I joined gridge98 on a quick overnight trip to Port Pirie. The plan was to geocache around the town, and then head across through to Jamestown via Gladstone and Caltowie in order to find a unique hidden month oldie cache nearby. We then joined the geocaching community at the Gawler dinner event.
Today, we got up early and spent the first half of the day travelling around Port Pirie. A few highlights were the views of the lead smelters, the historic main street, and wetlands. Once a bakery lunch was had, we headed east, and found a few geocaches in Gladstone, Caltowie, and Jamestown. We then left some time to visit Bundaleer Forest Reserve for the 05/2001 hidden cache, as that was my last remaining available South Australian Jasmer grid caches. We then drove the few hours south to the international geocaching dinner Gawler event, before heading home.
We looked around GZ with no sign of the cache. We then saw some logbook paper strewn across the ground, with the previous log noting that that was likely the geocache destroyed. We made a PAF to the CO, who allowed us to set aside a replacement cache here. The cache container is now an Eclipse container with waterproof paper. Thanks chrispy89 for the cache placement.
