Nurseyjulie was in town for the Adelaide 500 weekend. But now it was Monday and her flight home wasn't until later that night and so I offered to be keep her company for the morning until Firesafe could join us. When I picked her up we soon discovered she only needed two caches to finish her D/T grid. So our mission for the morning was set. [:o)]
But as I was driving to the first cache I saw a previous DNF from almost two years ago appear on the GPS. May as well call in rectify that. So i stopped but I soon had the same result. No cache. I see from the logs that it was replaced and found for a while but then again it seems it hasn't been seen since May last year.
Perhaps it may be there when I am next passing in two year time. [:o)] Perhaps I better watch and get here sooner. [8)]
**Thanks The Radneys for the search anyway. **

Not actually accessible but had a good look and recent earthworks may have had an impact.
This cache is currently unavailable. Works are in progress with fencing around a large area.

Wonder how long we will still be able to see Mitsubishi's name across the road.
Loved the hide!

After moving here a few days ago, I Headed out to explore the local area today, passing by this reserve as I did. Straight away it seemed pretty clear where to look, and so the cache was uncovered quickly with use of the hint. Thanks for the simple find, SLTNLN.
Cache #1442.
This morning, I went to Hallett Cove for business. On the way there, I found this cache.
I had been there one year ago, but could not find it. Today I tried again, and came prepared with a pair of gloves. Well, it's not in the place I checked before. Extend the searching area, and I noticed something. Checked, it was the cache!
Cache condition was OK. Signed the log, and re-hide it.

Now this hide was tricky and well hidden [:o] The last place i looked [:o)] The find was made at 18:32 on Wed 16 Nov 2016. Nice camo on the cache aswell. TNLN TFTC The Radneys
There were a couple people waiting at the bus stop but as I got closer the bus came and took them away.
Perfect.
A nice easy find today. TFTC, The Radneys.

Probably should've just parked in the car yard next door, but ended up going around the block and parking up the top.
Made my way to GZ and then panicked seeing mostly DNF's in the logs stored within my GPSr (although the last log was a find). I then took a bit of time hunting around searching all manner of spots and alas was getting frustrated at not finding it (although it was dark and I only had the screen light of the GPSr to search by). Anyway, one more look around and finally found the cache nicely blended in with the surroundings and in good order. Took the cache over to the nearby bus stop for some light to add my name into the log book, before carefully returning the cache so it blended back in.
I wonder if the park gets used much[?] The grass was quite long except for the two worn trails from the bus-stop and the car yard. Obviously some planning had gone into it to put a garden bed in the park. I also wonder how long the possum bones will remain[?]

Searched all of the obvious hiding holes, found the dead possum (or whatever it was) and was very nearly ready to give up when I spotted something a little out of the ordinary. Amazing this cache has lasted considering how difficult it is to remain invisible near a major road. Cache is in great condition and awaiting the next finder. TFTC The Radneys!
Another day of dropping my daughter off at Flinders Uni and being free to cache a few hours away. [8d] Time to try and get a few more of the caches in the Shepherd's Hill park that I didn't get to last week. [^]
That done it was time to grab a bite to eat and grab a few that didn't require lots of walking.
Should have BYO cache as I couldn't find this one. The probable hide was very vacant.

Looked, reached, stretched and poked the obvious spot to the very end, but no luck finding this one today [xx(].
Widened our search area, but still came up blank [|)].
We'll keep watch to see if someone else finds it before returning .
Thanks anyway to The Radneys.

Nice spot for a hide ;c) A little tricky to retrieve... luckily red had gloves with him :cP TFTC Radneys!!
Mitchell age 6 found the spot after some searching-renewed enthusiasm for geocaching after a couple of unsuccessful outings...TFTC
What a great hiding spot. Found after dropping the car off for a service. TFTC
Wasn't going to try this due to muggles on South Rd, then after reading some logs thought would try. Lots of ants, but no rags today. TFTC
We have driven past here so so very often and always thought "nope too busy for us", but when it came down to it, everyone is way too busy watching the traffic to be watching two people staring at something in their hand and wandering around and around, poking their hands into places.
All in all a tricky hunt that was probably observed by no one.
Thanks The Radneys for the cache.
Found, signed and replaced.

I've driven past this one a number of times, this time I went round the block and then quickly secured the cache. Thanks Radneys.
Sorry, no writing stick with me but going elbow deep into the depths to recover the cache surely counts for something?! Nice easy find but daunting recovery!
Muggle partner had to put in his mother's new stove, so I got to cache down south
I needed some more of my current favourite red wine from the winery that the Hope Farm geocache is situated at and so grabbed my eldest grand daughter, Destiny, before heading over there.
On the way back we found several caches and apparently Destiny now wants to go and find more...pity her parents
By day's end, I had 10 smileys
I'd swapped Dest for muggle partner by now and we were on our way home but he let me stop here to find this cache, as I'd often said 'one day I need to get in there and get that bloody cache!'
A quick find of a tricky and well hidden cache.
I remember doing arm wrestling over the side road, many years ago, when it was still the South Adelaide footy club rooms.

A quick find on our very quick trip to SA. Got up early before the neighbours woke. TNLN TFTC
We came to Adelaide on just an overnight trip in order for Tassie expat to find her 1000th cache. Thanks very much for the hide.
We've also driven past many times but this is the first time we've stopped here

Drive past here countless times but have never stopped.
Tonight I was driving past and decided it was time to stop and finally get this one.
Lovely big old trees in this reserve. [^] Found the cache after one circuit of the tree.

Spotted where it was hiding as I approached - my large hand made it tricky to remove from its hidey-hole - but log signed and replaced. Thanks for the visit to a park I have been past countless times but never stopped at - TFTC!!
I checked the surrounds first, for animals with more legs than me but it was all clear. TFTC.
Found pretty easy after issues with GPS well hidden, never would have thought to look as a muggle!!
Made this one a CITO so I wouldn't look suspicious and filled a whole bag. This time the cache hadn't been muggled, my arms weren't too short and I was in just the right place. Took TBs. TFTF
Checked today - it's definitely still there, safe and sound where it should be. Mind the bees, they have set up camp in the tree up high.
Dropped off a couple of TBs too for the next finder.

Found some camo that suggested cache but nothing else. Like previous log, maybe i was in the wrong place or need longer arms, or maybe It's gone?
Maybe this one has been muggled, maybe my arm wasn't long enough or maybe I was just searching in the wrong place, I don't know why I didn't find it The parrots nesting in a big Gum Tree were going ballistic. TFTF
Don't come down South much ... so was in the area today ... and had a few hours to go caching!
What an enjoyable time and great weather to do so!
Didn't take too long at all.
Was able to put some more stuff in the cache container to make the find more interesting for the junior cachers!
Seek3r-ed and found!

Enjoyable find once a muggle had left the park bench nearby.
An obvious place isn't always the place!

Quick find after finding a decoy in another hole. Just had to reach further for it. TFTC
Easy with the hint.
Good thing too. I look a bit silly digging around in a business suit

Another fun find after work tonight, about time i found this one as i drive past every day! Thanks for placing a cache to find and for the hunt this evening:)
Found at 17:31 by Olga.
How many times have we driven past this reserve, and this is the first time we stopped here

This nicely disguised cache was unable to hide from us and we quickly had the cache in hand. SL TFTC
Quickly found the cache at the coordinates. Thanks for the cache just a short walk from work!
Just as a note - The "200mL Sistema" appears to be camouflaged as a completely different type of container.

I am still in the area after the SA MEGA and there are a few more caches to find.
I now in Adelaide to catch up with a friend.
A big thank you to all of the cachers that have been involved with the MEGA.
A quick find.

No rags in sight when I approached the hide. Lots of traffic though. Thanks to The Radneys.
Tree provided good cover but was muggled out, he didnt even look and just kept going, phew that was close. TFTC
A quick easy find with 3LG heading to the Bat Cache.
Took trackables to visit.

Got to GZ, Discovered a Bee's Hive, half up the tree. However would not cause any concern to People unless they decided to climb it, .. If people have reaction's to bees just be aware of them. Spotted a number of parrots. Found cache using the clue, and well away from the bee's. TFTCSL.
Found It!
Quick find. Didn't see any rags but then again I wasn't expecting to...
