Full time nomads exploring SA. Stopping over in Laura we headed out to visit all our caches for a maintenance run and managed to pick up a few others whilst in the area.

Cache is in good order, new logs added where necessary.

TFTC - great spot. Other than a very well stocked IGA with helpful staff, the Laura chocolate shop was the only thing open on Saturday afternoon. Gelati looked good. Coffee was fine. Quick stop on the way out of Laura for me!

This weekend, I headed with [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) to Mount Remarkable National Park for a combination of hiking and mountain biking. We based ourselves in Wilmington and overall, we enjoyed a weekend of nice spring weather.

Today, I travelled with [@jesswrigley](http://coord.info/PRNW59T) from Adelaide to Wilmington. We called into Nantawarra on route, and then enjoyed a pub dinner in Laura.

This cache took a few minutes to find, and possibly was just looking not at the right elevation. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Otherwise no issues with this one. Thanks FelixII for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Up north again with a Muggle (Railfan) mate for 2 days i was making sure caching was to be a part of this 2 day trip Wink This was my 2nd find for the day... so far [^].
Wanting to visit the home of the famous Golden North products, we headed this way from Crystal Brook and this cache was found.

2 of 11 Finds, 1 DNF's on this run

2558 Total Finds

Me missus lived in Port Pirie from 1999 until 2006. She came to the US to be my wife, and I'm pretty sure I got the better end of that deal. She's certainly the better half.

We decided to make another loop through Laura, Wirrabara, Murraytown, and Melrose today that wasn't quite as rushed as our trip a few days ago, and maybe pick up a few more caches after a good hike on Mount Remarkable.

Drove past this one on 03.04 on our previous trip to Melrose with the FIL. Didn't want to stress him with the stop and go stuff for geocaching. But went to Melrose again for a little jaunt on Mount Remarkable and decided to stop and grab this one. Nice hide. TFTC.

So after a great weekend of fun, frivolity and food in Quorn we packed up camp and headed back home to Adelaide. We took the scenic route and found 33 caches on our way plus adding 5 new dnfs to our tally.
It was quite overcast but we didn't get wet so that was a bonus. It was nice to see some of these small country towns although we were quite underwhelmed by the Golden North factory at Laura we had been expecting something much grander and a nice ice cream cafe! We had a nice packed lunch at Wirrabra and finally arrived home at 6pm in time to cook a roast supper.
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Quorn another part of the state we would like to explore further.
We are going to come back and visit Laura properly one day so this was the only Laura cache we did today. This one was quickly found using the hint. TFTC FelixII

Hi there FelixII.

We found your cache **"Western Entry to Laura"** at 11:13:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 16000).

We cached from Gladstone, around the hills and into Laura for a Golden North ice cream today. On our trek we found a variety of container types. & ended up finding 12 caches with 2 DNF's.

Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

###Woo hoo!!!! This is our 16,000th cache find.###

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny.

We have come to Wirrabara for the JLW2016 event. After the event we travelled over to Port Perie to blast the car clean and on the way over and back picked up a couple of caches.

There is some lovely countryside to visit in these parts and we also enjoyed a beverage and eats at as local establishment. Thank you to the hiders of these caches.

All the caches we visited are in good order. TNLN TFTC SL
