Our usual Tuesday Trekking once again turned into a Wednesday Wander. [^] Plan A was to meet at a cache at Glenelg and wander around there collecting smileys. [^] Plan A lasted for one cache - the cache we met at. Surprised So now altogether was myself, S.A. Sewer Rats and FTF hound Ttrogg didn't cache around that area we headed south 20 kilometres or so in search of a FTF! [^] So Plan B of caching southwards took over. Big Grin Still a smiley is a smiley. Here is what I found today. Cool

My GPS led me straight to the base of a tree as per the hint. Razz Trouble was it was now cut down and about 3 inches tall. Twisted Worse there was no cache. [:(!] What the hell is everyone else finding. [?] So GPS in pocket I checked a few other nearby stumps and head for the largest remaining tree. [^] Sure enough the cache was found there. Smile

Out for a quick caching-stroll between coffee catch-up and boozy lunch.
My GPS took me to a stump with a base but no cache. Widened the search and trusted my instincts.

Today I treated myself to some caching time, heading down south for a few smileys. This cache was one of them. Cache found and in good condition. I removed the rubbish sodden logs from the bottom and returned the clean one only. Thanks for the hide Cant Crew. Find #7911 at 3.28pm

After a brunch event in Prospect and visiting family in the northeastern suburbs, I’ve headed south to Onkaparinga, where I still have many hides to find. This is one of ten caches found down that way today.

Today has been hot, and you can see all the green getting sucked out of our parks now. My phone GPS wasn’t sure which tree here, but it didn’t take long to work it out. Thanks for the hide c4nt-crew.

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

Coming around the back of the pond, it certainly did seem the grass got greener around this side!
A little widening of the search soon had the prize! Cool

Heaps of thanks to c4nt-crew 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!!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

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!

Bloody hell. Really. Looked so many times. I'm sure I've searched that area before TFTC

I noticed a few DNF's so I checked the spot while I was at rugby training... It is still there, easy to find. But the coordinates are a little off which I think may be the reason people are struggling to find it. But definitely there, in great condition.

Second attempt for this one. Three of us looked hard for this before and we even used someone elses photo as a clue to where it really was and not the stump we were led to but no joy. This time ventured a little bit more east as per others have suggested and can't believe thats where it was before that we would have missed it! Anyway found now and TFTC

My second to last modern wonder! TFTC
 
11-Jul-20
Upon looking at this hide with Google Maps Satellite i was thinking of a title: "The pond is always greener on the electrical side of the fence", ha ha Big Grin

Today, after reading some previous logs, i ventured a wee bit further East, then it was CIH coz my GPS wanted me at a tree stump, before with dead branches nearby [:o]... no hide there [B)]

SL at 11:30 on Saturday the 11th of July 2020.

The log within is good and dry [^]

This evening, I headed south to Morphett Vale and Onkaparinga Hills for some solo geocaching. I rather enjoyed heading around the different parks, reserves and memorials, and it was a nice night to adventuring. I did also visit Wilfred Taylor Reserve, and it was quite busy with various sports being played.

It took a little to find this one, and in the end, I found the cache about 15 m away from GZ. I had this cache at S 35° 07.198' E 138° 32.742'. The clue was relevant though. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks c4nt-crew for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
