Here on a nice, sunny day with scramping and hevwalker.
A lovely, little pocket of bush vegetation, (wish I had the handy plant tags)

A favourite, thanks.

Headed to Adelaide on a Day Trip with scramping and after collecting clare007, we made our way to the Annual SA Geocaching Christmas event...
After the event we had a bit of time for collecting more smileys...
Came to this little park and found the troll...

Yayyy we found it!! What a great troll find thank you
 
26-Feb-20
I need to come do such things on main intersections at night, me thinks! It’s a cute container alright. Surprisingly I felt more sheltered in situ signing and replacing as found than scurrying away with the thing like Golum and his precious ring - I stayed put, signed and placed a little handpainted kindness rock of mine for swag. I picked up the TBs for a little journey together. TFTC

Weird thought I logged this from the app last night, mustn't have hit the send button.
This was my last of 4 finds for the evening, made a bit of a meal of the search I really am no good with Troll caches, they seem to be a bit of a nemesis.
Once I found it I emptied out all the trinkets and squished in a TB. Then added back all the trinkets, the log book and pencil, it was a tight fit.
After I replaced the cache I then started counting to work on the nearby multi.
TFTC this is nicely themed and I enjoyed, will be back one Thursday to do more caches around here, they are good!
 
24-Mar-19
Love the troll theme

Woo hoo Anymules had a rare Friday off and wanted to join other members of the Puzzled Puzzlers group by finding BFE Nirvana. Razz He still had 10 to find and some were steep walks in Anstey Hill Conservation Park. I had already done them but went with him in case of mishaps. In return we also stopped along the journey to grab some that I hadn't found. Cool
So heading up to the hill we called in here where I played troll. [^] Glad it wasn't raining and the dry creek bed was just that. Wink that made for a quick find. Smile

**Thanks FamilyFuninthesun for this cache. ** Big Grin

Back on 15 March this year I DNF'd this one but today it was a quick find in about the 4th place I looked ha ha Big Grin. I was initially doing the steps for the Multi, but in doing so I became tempted into looking for this Trad so I shifted my search to have a peep for this one and came up trumps [^] SL back over on a park bench at 13:54. Loved the container, would go well at Halloween lol Big Grin Sunday, 22 October, 2017. It's contents are all good and dry Smile TFTC FamilyFuninthesun Smile [Now it's time for a lovely Subway lunch Wink]

Had a poke around
 
15-Mar-17
"I think I know where it might be... but it wasn't to be" [v] (15 Mar 2017) I suppose peak hour traffic with 9084032482380 Muggles parked at the lights may have had something to do with my timid attempt at a search but no excuses here... it wasn't found so a DNF it is. It's probably easy with a title name like that, the obvious structure was "Sort of" searched Big Grin. I will return for another crack at it and at the Multi here also, which I only discovered when back home online [:o)] TFTH and challenge, FamilyFuninthesun Smile
 
25-Feb-17
found this while in the area hunting game piece tbs. The person sweeping the carpark didn't take any notice of me grabbing the cache.

This was no match for the keen eyes of the Rat today.
A look at the gardens, quick look at GZ.
Then the rat went a scurrying and the cache was found. TFTC

A very sneaky hide, a few meters out but still no match for the keen eyes of the Rat. Even with a council worker doing some maintenance we were not seen. TFTC

Day 202 of "consecutive days with finds". Cache #1302.

What a day! Storm is back and temperature dropped to 9 degrees. Raining, raining for the whole day, and I started to worry that I may have to go caching in the storm. Luckily, it stopped raining when I left the office.

I parked my car on Morris Street, and walked to GZ. After the rain, everything was wet. Everything but the cache. My cache experience told me the cache should be there, but my eyes cannot see anything. Then I turned on the torch --cache was there!

Cache container is interesting. Took nothing, left nothing. Signed the log book, and placed it back.

Thanks for the cache, FamilyFuninthesun.

Hmm well I did only have a very quick look under the corners on a very rainy evening the other night.
No logs in a while had me a bit discouraged, and had just come back from the very wet hills and happened past this corner.
But wanted to see it ticked off. A nudge from CO that it had been attended to made me go back for a better look, this time in daylight between showers. Turns out it was between places I checked too, and although a cat got wet feet the cache was nice and dry with a fresh log book enclosed. Go get it folks!!
TFTC FamilyFuninthesun Big Grin and for checking on it Cool
 
24-May-16
Can you confirm when you checked this last MattyCat? as the Cache looked fine... This was checked three days ago - cache still in place.
 
22-May-16
Might need a check up.
Lots of DNFs then nothing logged in a while Surprised
