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.

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.

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!

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

**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!
