This series was our target for today but of course we looked for and found others along the way as well. We found the 30 days of March that are still in play and collected some curious looks from passers-by but all good. TFTC and the series
Today out and about on 201 of 274 days to get my daily cacher Emerald Using my Garmin Etrex 22X and MacBook Air!Thanks for the cacheTFTC
I have been eyeing off this trail for years but have kept putting it off as I thought the track might be difficult for my 2wd car. Id planned to tackle it by bike. But today I was making my way to Mannum Falls when I stopped at cache 1 to assess the track. It turns out that a 4wd is not required well not in the dry conditions I had today. So I set about completing the trail. My 2wd car fine and the trail was pretty quickly completed except for 1 DNF. A fun trail that is easy on the knees. Thank you 3LG, for placing OTD 26.3 March 26th for the geocaching community.# #

#15164 # #Staying at Mannum for 2 nights. Muggle husband decided to fill in time we would go geocaching. We were parked on wrong side of road then hubby decided to drive along the track alongside the pipeline. After a few caches I hinted I was worn out so we moved on. Was pleased to find them tho. Some logs need replacing. Tftc
Paddle Chick and myself are staying in Mannum tonight It got to 42 degrees today. Not looking forward to the tent tonight
Our plan today is to cache our way to Murray Bridge and camp there however we didn't know that there is a public holiday on Monday and Murray Bridge is a popular getaway location for Adelaide folk. Our next plan was to try Mannum and we walked into the campground office just as a cancellation came through. Lucky for us. After putting up our tents we were back on the road for more caches.

Staying a few days in Murray Bridge geocache travelling around SA. Saw this cute series so decided to head up to pretty Mannum and do it.
Lot of the logs are getting very full. Lots of familiar caching names.
Tyft series. Needed this one after the Wandering Heroes which was quite hard terrain wise.

Day 18 of our loop through Vic and SA then home.
Our last day together on this trip, we headed even further afield from Loxton. fitzy_1965, albida33 & I signed as MAF or FAM to save room.
Mannum was our target, along with two OTD series, some oldies and some nice D/T’s.
All caches were found quickly and easily unless otherwise mentioned.

Southern Autumn adventure Day 19. Post Mega South East SA trip Day 13. For our last day of caching together, we had to look quite a far way off from Loxton. we ended up heading all the way to Mannum to visit two OTD series. Along the way there were several other aches to be found and importantly an Canberra Lab cache as well. Caching was with Fitzy_195, MinnieK and albida33 and logs were signed as F.A.M. or similar, It turned into quite a long late drive home but we have had a great few weeks caching during and after the Rutherglen event and I cannot wait to do it all again on even more South Australian cache series
After caching to Mannum and a lunch break, it was time to do another OTD series. I love that all the containers are the same so when you pull up it was either in this one or the next. The pipeline road was a real bonus on this busy highway.
Thanks for the cache LíB

Rutherglen Mega and South Australia Trip Day 18. Today we headed out early to get two of the On This Day series (November and March) plus the usual cherry-picking around Mannum and Palmer, before finishing up some Trads around Loxton that we have driven past far too many times ! We got to do the ferry ride at Swan Reach twice again which we always enjoy
This was the next find of the day, and it was a quick find once at GZ. Signed, replaced, and then we headed off to the next one on the list.
Thanks 3LG !!

Day nineteen of our short South Australian trip with BettyBoo3747 and the geo-doggies.
Lovely weather today and the first day of traveling home.
Tanunda to Tailem Bend, via a few AdLabs, an OTD series, and a few trads.
Been a while since we have done an OTD series, today it was March.
Bumped along the maintenance track next to the pipeline and my passenger jumped whenever the car stopped. A nice little series.
Several are starting to get full logs and a couple need a bit of TLC. (BB will notate).
Thanks, Robmc.

#19445. Day 19 of our Vic/SA trip with Robmc the geodogs and our bicycles. Sadly, we have now left the Barossa Valley and have made our way to Tailem Bend, making our way home slowly to Victoria. After last night's wild storm we awoke to a blue sky and sunshine - good for travelling.
We enjoyed doing this little series of nice easy finds. Such great containers - most still the original ones and in good condition. Perfect for their hiding place. However, after 6 or so years the ones with several log sheets are getting full and looking a little tired. At #3 I found a very weather beaten log book in the hiding place so container seems to have been missing for a while. #4 the log book is full and #1 has a recent film cannister with only one small piece of paper in it, that is getting full.
Thanks LíB

Oh look! A track! I wonder if we could go up that? And so feathertop did.
Easiest caching we have had in the six days we have been on this trip.
feathertop had found other months in this series, but this was my introduction. Now I’m looking forward to doing more on another trip.
All caches signed as F’Top & C’Gran for feathertop and Cybergran V
Thank you so much for placing them here.

I was working part time at a drive thru bottle shop in 1984, and remember being very excited when I saw my first $100 note. The new polymer $100 is supposed to be released later this year.

Today with COVID-19 requirements still in effect, and with jesswrigley wanting a rest day at home, I decided to head up to the hills to do a couple of OTD series that hadn't been found for some time. These were the March OTD series, followed by the November OTD series, just around Mannum.
In addition, I stopped off at various locations to run along the trails and in reservations/parks to do some fitness. I enjoyed the journey out and about, and made stops in Charleston, around Tungkillo, Palmer, and Mannum. Mannum was a great little spot next to the river, and keen to return in the future to explore around here further.
It was a cloudy, coolish day that helped provide solo motivation at jumping in/out of the car so frequently.
This March OTD series has got to be the best solo power trail ever! Most of the caches I didn't even need to leave my car, and a few times needed to open my door to reach across. If only there were some special spray paint marks or something so you could drive quickly between caches, and then make an efficient stop at the right structure. Although I was driving from east from Adelaide towards Mannum, I decided to drive to 31/03, and head back along towards 1/03 so the driver's side was closest to the geocaches, and that strategy worked a gem (thanks to gridge98 for the suggestion).
This was a quick find whilst driving this series. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks 3LG aka. LíB for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Singer and actress Diana Ross was part of the 1960s pop/soul trio the Supremes before embarking on a successful solo career, also starring in such films as 'Lady Sings the Blues' and 'The Wiz.'
Who Is Diana Ross?
Diana Ross began singing with friends as a teenager, and eventually formed the groundbreaking 1960s trio the Supremes, going on to have hits like "Come See About Me" and "You Can't Hurry Love." Ross left for a solo career in 1969, later reaching No. 1 with hits like "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" and "Love Hangover." She starred in the films Mahogany and Lady Sings the Blues as well, earning an Oscar nomination for the latter. Despite personal and professional ups and downs, Ross has withstood the test of time as a performer with a career that spans more than four decades.
The Supremes
Ross was born on March 26, 1944, in Detroit, Michigan. Developing a reputation as an accomplished performer, Ross began singing in the group the Primettes with friends Mary Wilson, Florence Ballard and Barbara Martin as a teenager. Martin eventually dropped out, but the remaining members of the group went on to become the internationally successful 1960s R&B and pop trio the Supremes (later named Diana Ross and the Supremes).
Had a few of her recordes as a teenager. Tftc LIB and remember keep on Laughing Kookacrew

Over in SA, with Tyred n Cranky, for the Tour Down Under and as normal Mount Barker is our Home for the week.
Today is my big Geocaching Day, As Tyred n Cranky get on the bikes and ride the annual Community day bike ride.
Today I had to drop them off at Williamstown for their 7am start and pick them up at Murray Bridge when they cross the finish line. Hence I have a few hours up my sleeve for cacheing.
I had a few caches eyed off, a couple of small trails and even had some time to detour fro a couple of interesting icons on the map.
From Micros to large caches, all were included in today's agenda. With cooler weather than previous years it all made for an enjoyable day out n about.
