Out for another magical mystery tour with Doctor Owl up to the hills and beyond on another perfect day for caching. We started off with a bit of maintenance then revisiting a couple of DNF's in suburbia before heading for the hills. Another fun day with a variety of caches found along with a lunch stop in Tanunda.This was the first cache visited so Doctor Owl could change the container, so I happily stamped the log.Thanks for the cache Doctor Owl.

Had some time to grab some caches in the north eastern suburbs given I didn't need to go to work thanks to the opportunity to celebrate King Charles' birthday. I must say there were plenty of dogwalkers out and about today which made finding some of the caches a drawn out affair, or led me to just walk away to come back another day. All up a good selection of 9 caches were found. TFTC

The usual Tuesday Trekking for members of the Befuddled Puzzle Solving group. Yet again I picked up S.A. Sewer Rat from the rat's nest, then on to Blackadders Snakepit where he jumped in. [^] Yet again we did the Snakes's latest offering and then it was off towards the northeast suburbs for the 4th week in a row trying to finish all the caches we still had there and anything else we came across. Cool
My GPS decided it would had a hissy fit last week and I gave up on it after three years and replaced it. [^] Getting used to the new one had a few teething problems. Twisted Not all of us required every cache so here are the caches I was able to put my name in the log. Razz Be glad to head somewhere else next Tuesday. Cool

A nice quick and easy find for me whilst the others staying in the car in thew air conditioning with the engine running! Smile

***Thanks Doctor Owl for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. *** Big Grin

Just as well we had already consumed our dinner. Reading the cache description made us hungry again though. Luckily for us the resident cache guardian was out hunting for his own dinner tonight and we did not meet him. The number of these small reserves dotted around is amazing. Shame that no one seems to use them. Thank you for placing this delicious sounding cache for us to find tonight.

I could win an award for most caches found but not logged online. Please forgive this very generic log. If I admired your cache you'll get a favourite point from me and I'll likely come back and edit this log once I've caught up. If this generic log makes you unhappy - delete it. Life's too short to worry over it, I had fun finding your cache either way. Smile Cheers!

Out on a beautiful day to find some caches. A return visit to this one, after a dismal failure last time! Red Face . Today the satellite Gods were more in our favour and a quick find today, although a little too close to private property for my liking! (Which is why I missed it last time - that's my excuse any way Big Grin ). TNLN SL Thanks for the cache Dr Owl ( and a prompt check last time.)

A quick find. Thanks Dr Owl.
