Cache found on the Joy of SECS tour with four-fun, Freddo, thewhitedoggang and Team Waldron. There were a stack of boxes to find so we pushed on. We even had a quick round of Mountopoly and a couple of Powertrails to add to the fun. The weather was cool and sometimes icy so wet boots were the order of the day.


Thanks to jgc3 and clear skies from TeamAstro.

A 3 day caching expedition with Freddo, Astro, WhiteDogGang an Four Fun.

After not having any internet for nearly two years I am finally getting around to logging some caches that I did with Team Crackers a long time back.
We completed quite a few BLE caches back in 11-8-13 and I cannot remember them all now so apologies to the cache owner for the cut and paste log.
I am working off Team Crackers list for that day.
Many thanks for the fun Day

We were out with Super Pop collecting some of the BLE caches and this one was the start of the races to see who could find it first. Another nice quick find in a great bush setting. No wonder Rocky did not want to make it his last and was angry at Adrian for throwing the GPS away.
Thanks once more jgc3

Our plan for the day was to grab a least 20 of the BLE caches and go wet a line and hopefully land a fish or two. After lunch at the Nelson Kiosk the kids decided they'd rather go shopping in Mount Gambier than fishing in the river. As a result our tally ended up a couple short for the day. This was the third of 18 finds for the day.
There were three rocks on the cache

Monday at BLE and after packing up, Dennisc52 and I left the campsite and parked his car. Well, mine was already dusty and dirty and his was still clean Wink

Dennisc52 and I managed to achieve locus cache 25 times Big Grin before we parted company and took separate routes back to Adelaide.

However I hung around Nelson for a bit longer and so, by the time that I stopped at Millicent for the night, I had gathered up another 19 locus cache smileys Smile (with 1 DNF Sad ), making this a 45 cache day [^] Cool

Many of the caches along this trail were picked up by Dennisc52 as they were on his side of the car so I apologise that I cannot remember them all individually Sad However I did love the names for these caches Cool

Especially these five Wink We were Rocky and invincible as we had almost completed the trail on this road.

Found this neat cache during BIG little EVENT. Our thanks go out to all involved in the event and to all who have placed caches for the event.
Our apologize for the late logs, and the boilplate plate logs.
Due to events happening in our lives just after the event, the logging had to be put on hold until now.
We had a fantastic time, met some new caches and even bumped into a few old ones from afar.
Many, many thanks to all involved.

#3524 We had sort of lost interest in the Rocky movies after the first couple - Dad can only tolerate Sylvester Stallone in small doses so we can't really remember the premise of this movie. So after two caches of taking the micky out of Rocky, talk had instead turned to our intentions for our next holiday. Once again Co came up trumps and found the well hidden cache in great condition. A great part of the world, thanks for bringing us here jgc3
