A beautiful, sunny day to catch a train down south with my bike to grab some southern caches.
A lovely old building that could tell some stories and a nice hide.

We noticed that this cache had been awarded many favourites. Instead of driving past, we decided to stop to look for the cache. Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a simple yet very well planned and constructed cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks JJ52 for an enjoyable cache in an interesting area - it earns a favourite from us.

Heading back to WA from the Rutherglen MEGA and a year long Aussie road trip. Picking up a few caches along the way.

We enjoyed finding this one. Seen a few like this before.

JJ52, I found Olive Farm today. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

**South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!**

Interesting location 10/10

I decided to head out for a little afternoon wander and explore the new local neighbourhood. I was interested in how easy it was to access the bike trail here - answer is super easy. I also wanted to look for this cache. It didn't take me too long to work out where to look. A cache with a bunch of FPs is usually going to be something a bit different. Added my abbreviated name to the freshly blank log. TFTC JJ52

Stopped here on our Monday walk to check on the cache. Have replaced the log, all good to go again. Big Grin

An interesting story if you wanted to read up on that as well
Thanks for bringing back here
Interesting that bregor was ftf on yours as well as mine

Sneaky sneaky
But I'm sticky beaky

 
19-Jun-22
Out for a few caches down around Morphett Vale, eyeing off the Coast to Vines Rail Trail Adventure Lab. With MotherGoldy along for the ride.

I'm trying to find at least one cache everyday for 100 days to qualify for a challenge.

I'm also aiming for 2000 total finds by December 31st 2022.

10 total finds for the day.


I let my mum try and find this one... picked it straight away. Wasn't expecting that.

Sneaky hide though. Very well done.

Favourite point allocated.


Cache retrieved and signed with stamp.

Thanks JJ52 for this cache.

This cache brings Goldy's total find count to 1271.

Went down south for a change of scenery. Found your cache along the way!

Funny how early successes in farming olives led to them becoming a declared pest weed!!!
Still olives are tasty and have nice oils too Big Grin

Heaps of thanks to JJ52 for placing and maintaining this cache on our SA geo game map Cool

Searching each and every day finding and signing cache logs alone or with family and friends using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S21u, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck WinkCoolBig Grin Plenty of that luck stuff actually!!!

Caching is a hazardous activity!
Keep a lookout for sand traps, snakes, surprise cliffs, boxing roos, wombats, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for any old bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]

Try to keep Travel Bugs as the only bugs you share and pass on Big Grin
Now everything's opening more - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!


Really good of all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside areas,
in sensible safe places especially! - it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting Cool

Thank you for reading all this addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere, apparently!

We found this one to be a little tricky, but it was a great hide. A fav point from me.

Today I was out and about with my lovely caching buddies (and friends), Team Crackers, as they were visiting from Victoria. We were also joined by JessBurbidge and Lewis. We covered some kms, enjoyed meals, various adventure labs, multis, trads and mysteries. Lots of laughter and some creative driving at times It felt like life was almost back to 'normal' today, which was wonderful, and this was with the covid-safe measures we implemented.

Thanks for the hide JJ52
 
04-Jan-22
We were spending a couple of nights in Adelaide catching up with some friends and naturally we went out caching together. We met at our motel and headed off for the afternoon with Goodlook, Jessica Burbidge and ourselves to do a few lab caches and whatever else came along.

We had just finished one of the points of the nearby lab and were heading back to the car when we swapped apps for a quick check and found this one not far off (it would be great if the 2 apps could be integrated into 1, it would make it so much easier)
We headed to gz and started our search. The cache was located in the second place we looked it's just that we didn't look hard enough first time around. After not finding anything with this many eyes looking we went back to a spot that we had already checked and sure enough not long after that we were adding our names to the log.

Many thanks again JJ%2 for the cache hide, a favorite point from us.

On my way home after grabbing 12 hides for my day... [the first 4 being MultiCaches [^] in Old Noarlunga] i just had to quickly duck by this JJ52 hide whilst coming this way home via South Road.

Planning to stop off at the Hilltop IGA at O'Halloran Hill for a Hazelnut FUIC {as per normal} after a days caching down south, this one was found quickly and it's log was signed at 12:56 on TGIF 26 June 2020.

All is good and dry within the cache Wink
TFTC JJ52 Smile

(Oh by the way... i am MAD [:x] about Olives. I always have them in my Subway Subs [^] [:x])

An interesting spot to be brought to. We wish the buildings here were being done up or at least looked after. Mary got intrigued by a spot she might have liked to have found the cache in, see photo attached. This was a relatively easy hide as we have a similar one in Victoria. Interesting history here.
TFTC Jude.

With work finishing at lunchtime today, I wondered how to spend my afternoon. There were a fair few geocaches down south that I had wanted to do on my bike, so decided to drive down, and ride the Coast to Vines Rail Trail from Morphett Vale to Hackham. Then towards Huntfield Heights and to the sound of Christmas carols, it was then back riding along Golden Wattle Way Trail, and finishing off where I started. I'm not a big fan of suburbian caches and driving around stopping/starting, but cycling + geocaching was a lot of fun, and very enjoyable. A nice temperature sunny afternoon to be riding around also.

I continued my afternoon's adventure along the rail trail, and this cache was a quick stop. I looked around, and saw something suspicious. Upon further inspection, the cache was found. This was a very good hiding spot actually, so I'm glad I found it quickly. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks [@JJ52](http://coord.info/PR7ZQX5) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Found on a bike ride with Shonky at 13:35
 
16-Nov-19
Out on the Shonky bicycle for a ride along the Seaford line with Uni and Medusa. The idea being to catch the train to Seaford and ride back and cache asking the way. Found this one after a short search.
Thanks for the cache.

So I was off work sick but a determined geocacher never gets a day off when attempting a personal challenge. This was my third and final find of the day and spotted a likely spot very quickly, didn't even need Chloe the geodogs help. Great hide.
Thanks to JJ52 from mogni Big Grin
