Due to getting out of the dog house and their removal going to archive so as i cant go back in
Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr Smokey Bear will no longer be a part of Team Smokey Bear and will continue his adventures as "SmokeyBearOG".
So I'm relogging all previous finds under my new account.
Unfortunately this log will not show the original logging date.
**Thanks to honeysucker for this adventure, looking forward to many more.**

Ha ha...love it, but in sitter there's a lot of happy, married men! A nice FP from me!
Well at gz the cache name makes sense. Stopped to get a cache or five in a new LGA. quick find. fav point.
Left with Mogni the day before Christmas to go down to Mount Gambier for Christmas Day. Then on the 27th left for Victoria. Plan A was to go to the Ottway Rangers, complete the Geo tour in Ballarat and then head to Geelong and take the Queenscliff ferry over to Sorrento then grabbing new LGA's on route to almost the New South Wales/Victoria border and the old 2001 cache near there. Also attending a community day event, a CITO and a couple of other events as well. Then head in to the high country and come back to SA in 11 days. Things didn't go to plan. Turns out that one of my almost new tyres was defective ( side wall blown out ) and blew in the ottway ranges on a narrow road in the rainforest, Drove to Melton to stay overnight and get a new tyre there, tyre machine broken and the other 5 tyre companies not open so off to geelong for a new tyre ( and some caches on the way and in geelong ) . The event we where going to attend in geelong didn't turn out, he was late by ALOT to his own event.Then to ballarat to same day since we had a b&b booked for the next few nights. Planned on getting the ferry at 1200 and ended up on the 400 pm ferry but we did attend a event and CITO in geelong. Then we drive into the rear end of a thunder storm with forecast 20 mm dropping for the next few days. Cancel the high country and change targets to letterbox D/T for fizzy grid only using letterboxes and same wirh the multi fizzy grid plus fizzy grid only using victorian caches plus any challenge caches we where near. Plus getting a few more victorian 2001 caches. And finally any caches that had 40 more more favourite points. Only got soaked to the bone for a couple of days but the water on the tracks was noticeable. On the return home tried to get the rest of the missing LGA's around the Melbourne CBD i missed in the last mega. Still a fun trip was had if not the planned one.

*Found on the 27 Nov 2022 @ 5:00 pm.*
*Cache find # 13715.*
I was needing a few finds in the Ararat LGA and while on my way home from Little Dessert, I was passing by this one, so I decided to stop on have a look at.
I wasn't sure what to expect here going by the name but this wasn't it, the cache was found and I was on my way.
**Thanks to honeysucker for placing this cache.**

SOOOOOO cute - reminded me of a cache in America I did recently - Loved it Took a few moments to locate- must have looked in the wrong spots first! Next time I will open my eyes and have a girl's look - nah, seriously, the hide was cute and the cache holder dry and secure TYFTC SLTNLN Fave, of course!

Neat little hide. Plenty of passing traffic but no issues. SL and returned as found.
On our way from Horsham to Melbourne, we noticed the fave points on this one so had to stop and take a look.
Very cute themed 'letterboxes' on Kennel Rd, nice touch. Found with a few eight-legged guardians.
Thanks honeysucker and Sully 1 for placing and maintaining. It was worth the stop!

Having a father-song weekend we thought this was a funny one to find and enjoyed the creativity here. A fav from us. TFTC
Like a dog with a bone we were determined to find this one...
I was like a dog with two tails when I found it.
Just proves there's life in the old dog yet.
Thx JJHHXX. Find 16

Just the name says you have to stop here. Once you arrive and see the Kennel sign and the kennels all lined up there is only a couple of things can happen. SL TFTC and a favourite point.
This one really put a smile on our faces as doggo lovers and deserve a favorite
Quick easy find on the way to the Grampians tftc

Arrived to find this cache, unfortunately Gz is looking a little worse for wear but the cache was found and is all good
Today I made my way from Adelaide to Ballarat via a few caches and found myself in Mount Beckworth and a few other places, also making it a goal to complete majority of Ballarat geotour.
Odd being back in Victoria after over a year but it’s good to be back.
Thanks for the cache

Have love this artwork forever. So excited to learn there’s finally a cache here!!! Ty ty ty
Haha I didn’t realise the name of the street. Very cute!! On our way home after stay near Stawell - me and the kids have been climbing granite boulders over the last few days, loving the area. Will have to come back 
Travelled out to Avoca to join in the celebration events and explore an area I’ve not been to before.
This is a clever cache. Whilst not married and with no intention to change that any time soon, I still tackled the cache and gained the smiley. Despite not being married I’ve definitely still been in the proverbial!
Thanks honeysucker for the cache.

That's a awesome cache, I loved it, don't want to ruin it for others but it's a pretty good looking cache thankyou for the find all looks to be in great order..
After a crazy year, it’s time to get away for a bit of R&R, and of course a cache or two.
How cute! So pleased this one is for women too! Lol
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache, honeysucker

Very interesting and cute idea! Easily found but was a bit hard to be stealthy with all the traffic. SL and replaced. TFTC
Spent 5-10 minutes looking in all the obvious places for an eclipse tin but no luck. We suspect that it's been muggled, but what an awesome spot!
I’d already noted this on numerous Adelaide-Melbourne drives in my pre-caching life; nice to now have an excuse to stop and get up close. TFTC.
I’m allergic to wedding cake.
Found on another epic caching loop with H423L which included the St Arnaud mega and many other magnificent Australian locations.
Thanks honeysucker maintained by Sully 1 and clear skies from TeamAstro. ️ Cache the planet!

Out after the mega event. Day 84 of our trip. Caching along the way. A total of 4 for the day and 2386 for the trip. TFTC
KGS had a crazy idea of an extended weekend, starting from the mega and then onto SA!! We wanted to see how many we could find and still get back to our accommodation near MEL airport before midnight! We ended up exhausted and covered in dust, but what fun! TFTC!!!
