time to go.

Found it out on a sunny saturday aftetnoon

Took awhile

In Mount Gambier with Happy Pants for a day of caching. The coast was clear on this Saturday afternoon, so the cache was soon found. TFTC SE_SA_Geocachers.

Another one of these caches that you look a bit sus at. High muggle area at this time of day

Suscoe headed out early today as our time in Mount Gambier is quickly disappearing.
It was a very foggy start to the day but as time went by the blue sky gently emerged and a splendid day was had by us.
45 cache finds in total which was a pleasant surprise and we enjoyed all the finds.
This is a terrific location for geocaching and we have loved our time in the Mount.

A quick find and sign.
Thanks to SE SA Geocachers for placing this cache here.

Eleventh for a lovely day in the mount TFTC

Had a quick search then read previous life and realised we were on the wrong side of the fence. Once at correct location we had cache in hand quickly but we were attacked by a rose bush!

Staying in Mt Gambier for a few days of relaxation with the hubby and geokids (age 4 & 6). Naturally I had to pick up a few caches in this cache filled town! I ditched the boys and went for a short drive to feed my cache addiction! Another quick grab. Very quite around here today (caching on public holidays is easier)! Lol

The hint led us a bit astray here and we were also mindful of our proximity to a childcare centre so we had to make this a quick one!

Taking the geo kids caching during the school holidays, while towing a 24 foot caravan. We'll grab every opportunity to grab a cache even trying from the wrong side of the fence. Eventually had cache in hand to sign.
Thanks SE_SA_Geocachers FTC.

In Mount Gambier for a caching weekend with Mrs. M, as Mr. M was away in Canberra working and perhaps getting a cache or two. Caught up with mogni and headed out for another great day of caches and laughs. Found this one in a callistemon bush. Thanks SE SA Geocachers.

Despite accurate coordinates, initially we were on the wrong side of a fence. Once on the right side, we were able to make a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks SE_SA_Geocachers for the cache and series.

Nice and big just shows doesn't need to be a micro tftc

Night time caching again in Mt Gambier. Quick find but had to beware of the prickly rose. TFTC

Second find today easy as pie!

Found easily on second attempt. TFTC. A good hide!

took 2 visits to find this one.
admittedly the first visit was just bad timing.
still quite a few muggles about.
this time was a sunday arvo... quiet.
we were however kicking ourselves when we found it.
it really was so easy in the end.
btw, there are no banksia trees nearby.
tftc.

Found easily but had to wait a good 5 mins to place back as a muggle worker came around and was moving some crates got it back with no worries

Didnt have a pen!!! Found on a geo-family walk qith geodogs! TFTC

Found it!

We were on the wrong side of the fence but soon realised it was on the other side so a quick car ride to the other side of the fence and a quick find. No muggles to be seen. TFTC

Another of this fabulous series knocked over today. Thanks for the series!!

Easy find in an awkward location

Didn't feel safe lookiing here with the childcare centre inhabitants lookin on. Worse spot than a playground for males!!

My geogirl found this one. She was pretty excited. Swapped a camel for moshling. TFTC

2nd time lucky TFTC

Geo dad had to help geoson past the rose bush

Gotta love being that dodgy customer on a Sunday afternoon ... Tftc!

We followed the GPS directions and got a little lost, common sense made a better decision
TFTC

Catching up on some very late logs that didn't save from our phone a while back. TFTC ok I'm going to run out of ideas for fresh logs very quickly......A Chandler find here!

#23 Found on a lil caching adventure while on my random unplanned weekend getaway to the Mount. Joined forces with jorden29 & danieljames96 for a night run.
Found after looking in the RIGHT tree. Doh!
Time- 11.59pm.
Took & left nothing.
Love this series.
Cheers & T.F.T.C =]
Hoppy caching!

Found this cache with Tassie Trekkers while looking around Mt Gambier. Now to find more of these. TFTC

Found on our "Making Memories" tour of Mainland Australia.

Today we explored Mount Gambier with Whitewebbs using geocaching as our guide.

Many thanks to all cache owners for placing and maintaining caches for our enjoyment.

Found by Mary & David at 1305. At last we have the high-value pair, which always used to end in tears when we played the real game as young children. Looked on the wrong side of the fence at first. After going around to the other side, found the cache after a short search. Glad there weren't any people about at the critical moment. Not sure this location is in keeping with the Mayfair image though. Our thanks to SE_SA_Geocachers.

Out for the morning getting a few more of the Mountopoly series. Parked here to walk to the nearby cache and grabbed this one on the way back to the car. Luckily no-one around the child care centre to notice what I was doing. Found the cache exactly where my GPSr was pointing me.
Thanks for the cache SE_SA_Geocachers.

# 7924 Found on the SA leg of our S.K.I.D.R.O. adventure,
while staying at Mt Gambier for a few days.
Another drive around for a few different series and others.
Not many muggles around and a reasonably quick find on most of them.
Thanks for the cache SE_SA_Geocachers,

Found by geo mum after geo dad and kids were giving up not sure if it was meant to be where it was but put it back where we found it

Parked the wrong side of the fence and after a short search we rechecked our gps and headed to the gz on foot via a footpath nearby. Found the cache but forgot our pen (again). Just so happened that a muggle from the centre came over to her car and geo wife asked politely if she had a pen we could borrow. She lent us a pen, signed the log, returned the pen and after she was gone we returned the container back into the callistemon and back on our way. TFTC.

Easy find .... but not in a Banksia!!

Found it in a bottle brush tree!

a great find .TFTC

One more crossed off. TFTC

A day trip to The Mount for some Christmas shopping left a little time for some caching, so I decided to try and clean up my remaining unfound Mountopoly caches and fittingly with the exception of the night cache this is the last of the street caches to be found
I had a little trouble locating this one and I finally succumb to reading the hint and made the find soon after.
Thanks[font=Verdana][/Red]

Couldn't believe our luck rolled a 2, put our feelers up and it was on the market. Snapped it up fast to have the upper class set for the game. Perhaps sealing a win in the future.Houses and hotels on the horizon for this proprty set.TFTC

This cache was found on the Joy of SECS Tour 2013. Thanks for the cache. Our group had a lot of fun this weekend. We were in a rush today and there was more caches to find. Woot.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This cache was found using a Garmin Montana 650t. Waypoints and paperless geocaching downloaded via GSAK 8.

Found when on 'The Joy of SECS' tour/assault along with Freddo, Astro, Team Waldron & White Dog Gang. Much fun was had, very wet boots were experienced and many caches were found including this one! [^]
Cheers & TFTC

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 SE_SA_Geocachers and clear skies from TeamAstro.

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

Apologies for the generic log but we did a few trails and some of the Mountopoly series. We also did most of the BLE series.

The mozzies were full on at times and it rained most of the first day.

TFTC. Absolutely love this series. You have put a lot of effort and time into this series. It was appreciated today (especially by the kids).

After a lovely afternoon caching, we headed into town & decided to give this one another go being a quiet sunday. We came here awhile back with no luck. Can't believe we missed this one before. TFTC

TFTC! Found on another after school caching exercise, but tried to find 3 others before we got this one!

Could not find this one anywhere! Might come back at a quieter time though as there were lots of muggles around. Clue didn't help as there were none of those described?!?

last time i looked on the wrong side of the fence

Woohoo!

easy once we went to the right side of fence

Second time back here and glad to have logged this one finally TFTC!

TFTC... Felt a bit dodgy hanging around this area.

Stealthy grab after scratching around in the dark

Nite caching with mandikaye in the fog...Enjoying the series...TFTC

Hhhhhggy

Looked but couldn't find, nice area, thanks for the drive.

Quick find
TFTC

Good co-ordinates meant we found this one without too much trouble. TFTC

Found it after trying both sides of the fence and looking for what seemed like hours and almost giving up mrs udderchaos read the clue correctly after mr uc read the clue incorrectly 1/2hr earlier but as a team we came up with the goods and had a bit of a laugh at ourselves TNLNSL thanks for a great cache in a great series

Muggles kept looking at us through windows.

Another easy cache to find our day out in Mt Gambier, loving it!

Timed this one well. All the muggles at the other end of the car park.
Quickly signed and replaced. TFTC

Quick and easy find once we were on the right side lol TFTC

So glad you gave us a hint... am sure in the daylight this one would be easier to find, but would need more stealth.
Thanks

Visiting the Mount once again and this trip was mainly for a friendly game of Mountopoly. We had heard some good things about this series, and it didn't disappoint. By this point we were doing night caching with the help of mogni. TFTC SE SA Geocachers.

Huzzah!! Back on the winners list with the high valued Mayfair. It took a little while with torches and headlights, but eventually we had our prize.

TFTC another nice native bush the night was to cold for an icecream so maybe next time .

What a pretty banksia tree. Not too busy on a Sunday. Left alien soldier. Tftcsl.

Tricky entrance!!! Well for us cos we always make it harder than it has to be. All that needs to be said is Kate was right once again!!! Lol quick dive out of the moving car once we realized where it was- geosun & geodad got there first

Found on my way in to town. I wasn't first to find but second.

My very first First to find. Congratulations on putting out such a diverse range of caches. I am looking forward to finding the rest of them.
