We returned today and had the place to ourselves. There are a few obvious spots to hide a fruit container, but none that contained a fruit container.
I'd put my money on the grumpy, killjoy neighbour has stolen the cache.

We didn't attempt this cache today, as there was a guy burning off weeds just over the fence from the final location. It also seems that there are new plantings on the road side of the fence. Assuming it was the same guy who want's this cache removed, we decided to leave it for the cache owner to deal with. Good luck with that!
Another day spent caching around the south. Today was a bit damper with rain most of the time. Saw a lot of wildlife today with roos, an echidna and also a deer that jumped in front of the car. Quick find. TFTC.
We read the note log and then found the cache. The new plantings are on the other side of the fence and not near the verge where the cache is.

A quick multi and found easily.
Caching our way home to Adelaide with 3LG and The X-trailers.
Interesting story about why cache was placed.
A shame the old cemetery and buildings are no longer visible.
Mick took photo to send to cache owner regards note in log book.

Found with The X Trailers on holidays here from Qld and earthlight as well, it was a great 4 days with plenty of laughs along the way, toady we are now starting to make the homeward journey and the weather is quite nice to us with only a small passing shower, was a fairly quick find after working out the coords.

A resident has written in the log book that they want this cache moved from here as they are going to be doing revegetation planting along here, i would keep the original starting point and move the final only to keep the resident happy.
Worked out and found by The Boofs TFTC ☺. Note has been left in the log book by the local resident asking this cache be moved due to future revegetation in the area.
Enjoying a nice, sunny day driving around the Fleurier Pennisular.

With the forecast for nice weather today it was time for a visit to the Victor Harbour area to clear away a few of the caches that have populated the area since I used to frequent the town.
I was surprised to see just how many new ones there is
With Astro we set about finding some of these little gems and this was one of them [^]
Cheers & TFTC

There was a chapel.
Then there was the sign. Astro loves a sign.
We pointed the car in the required direction and drove. We wondered what just happened........
Our thanks to boab bill and clear skies from TeamAstro..

Found It!
There are a lot of chapel paddocks around the place. Someone got married in my Grandpa's chapel paddock. And then one day it burnt down. Or perhaps it was the other way around. Either way it isn't in great shape...
Somehow I got the maths wrong here and ended up with GZ 50m into the paddock. But I soon spotted my error and made my way to the correct GZ for a quick find!

Stopped by to find this cache after a bit of fishing at Waitpinga - no fish, but that's OK when there's a cache or two to find. TFTC boab bill
Didn't read the directions correctly the first time and when I entered the coords GZ was some 100+km away. Back to the drawing board and after reading the directions properly it was a quick find. The little plant by GZ was looking good but by the middle of summer may need a drink of water. TFTC boab bill
Found with Geolze and landkg after coming back from Waitpinga Farm (where you can do quad biking). FTF with Geolze and landkg. Tfth
