So much illegally dumped rubbish here.Caching around Hackham and the ORNP today.Freddo, I found Wear the Fox Hat today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.
Trying to end May on a high, quick find, thanks Furry Freddo for this adventure tftc
dropping trackable, only 8 years since i was here last. Found again with mogni.
Out and about grabbing a few caches, that I seem to keep missing as I am driving around.Thanks
Nice and easy, got worried when I saw the "private property" sign but all is good!
Something special or unusual goes here:Another quick find for us here. The Generic Bit:Another Tuesday trek with S.A. Sewer Rats and Ttrogg. We met up at Woodcroft and went in search of some newer caches that had popped us since we were last down here and any others we came across. Another fun day that ended up with a long walk to get half a dozen in Tangari Regional Park. **SAs Leap Year Event GCA1DNA - keep the date free - 29th February 2024. - BOING*****Thanks Freddo for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Logs prepared and published through GSAK.
Time for a Tuesday Trek, for 3 Confused Puzzlers.The plan was for ttrogg to pick up the Rat from the Rat's Nest.We then headed to the Rat's Daughter's place, to meet up with the Starfish.It was a lovely day to be out caching, having fun and laughter.A quick find and stamp. Tftc
No excuse needed for a break from work but catching up with a couple of friends for a short day out caching sounds good enough.The driver was generous enough to drive a little further along the road to give me a find on a cache the others had already visited.Thanks for the cache Furry Freddo.
Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Freddo for the cache.
Happy to see a Freddo cache out here, miss ness has been sick so today was an uneventful day on holidays but we thought we would get some caches this arvo now she's up and running !

A rare day out with OzGrumpy who asked if I could join him for a Sunday cache hunt. With the weather forecasting 100% chance of rain there were umms and arrs however concentrating on drive by's meant we did not need to be far from the shelter of the geo mobile. This plan went well for all but one of our finds where we were caught out and ended up soaking wet.
All caches were in good condition unless noted otherwise.

A quick find after waiting for a muggle with a horse to enter the nearby shed.
Thank you for the cache Freddo Find Number 9918 on 31/07/2022

A quick stop by here today cache was easily found and is all good
After the morning event we headed down to the southern suburbs today to find some more unfound caches on the map, detouring to previous DNFs and a few others that had popped up in the last year.

This evening, I headed south to Morphett Vale and Onkaparinga Hills for some solo geocaching. I rather enjoyed heading around the different parks, reserves and memorials, and it was a nice night to adventuring. I did also visit Wilfred Taylor Reserve, and it was quite busy with various sports being played.
I had a pretty good search for this cache, and after checking the obvious spot 3-4 times, I decided to make a quick call to the CO. He mentioned that he thought it had been replaced recently, and described where the cache should have been. No luck there. Permission was then granted to replace the cache on his behalf. I checked the vehicle for a few replacement options, and decided to go with a CO favourite with an Eclipse mint tin, and built a nice base up to ensure it didn't drop and get lost. Thanks Furry Freddo for the cache placement. No foxes sighted here today!

Stopped by with sharyn1981 and cache is no longer there, I'll replace it for you within the week freddo.
An unexpected day away from work meant a couple of hours were available to collect some geocaches in the afternoon. Had a few on the list and managed to pick up 12 which was good for a day when i wasn't feeling the greatest. All caches looked for were found which was a bonus, don't like those pesky blue dnf faces. It was a glorious day and perfect for a bit of caching.
Area for caching was chosen based on this cache in the quest to get to 400 Freddo finds by the end of the year. Quick find here. TFTC Furry Freddo

Found while over this side of town hunting traditional smilies. Started the day with a DNF, then an FTF, managed to finish the day with a second DNF followed by another serendipitous FTF.
Thanks for the cache Freddo

Quick fun find with geodog, clue had my head in another direction, but soon got on track! TFTC
I headed out for a mountain bike ride in the sunshine along Christies ck and detoured to find a few caches.
Find 2 of 5
I don't like riding on the road and especially uphill but got a good workout getting there and a quick easy find.
Please note the log is full but squeezed my name in.

Our first geocache!
We found this geocache by accident whilst on a bush walk. We had not heard of geocaching before but are excited to start discovering more!

**this is a late log** I have recently made a major upgrade to my GSAK license and found this lovely feature that automatically tells me what caches I have marked found in GSAK but never logged on geocaching.com!! Yay, Clyde, you can have my money anytime! The caches I am logging in this batch were ones I did in 2016. I cache with an assortment of cachers and never alone. In 2016 I cached with Moneydork, Ride the GeoWalrus, Locus Cacher, Liz & Bruce and Team Zouk. My log should match up with one of theirs. I enjoy every cache find I have made and do not for one second take for granted the effort going into each one, its just I'm very bad at logging my finds and I'm trying to improve. To improve I have to reduce the quality of my log and just get it over with -- for now. If I can form a good habit again I will return to my once more meaningful logging. Thanks heaps for hiding caches around South Australia that I could find!
Found It!
No foxes were seen. Found my Freddo cache for the day. Oddly, only chocolate Freddos were seen at today's event...

The mini streak has continued.
After refereeing the Grand Final of the volleyball at Noarlunga, Chelle picked me up and we came out here.
Chelle made the find on this one.
Fox Hat is the name of a beer that I drink a bit of. It's a dark beer and people often ask "What's the Fox Hat?"

Found with my dad Rod81w on the home from picking me up from school. I had fun looking for this treasure. Thanks Freddo
My stoopid iPhone GPS had the cache inside the grounds of the golf course, but eventually I found the right spot.
Signed the log. Took nothing, but left a small token of proof I was here. TFTC
