Once upon a time in the quaint village of Tilden, there was a popular geocache known as "CuppaTime: Don't Forget To STOP!". The cache was cleverly hidden at a cozy little teashop that had been serving the community for decades.One sunny afternoon, Sarah and Tom, avid geocachers from a nearby town, decided to tackle this cache. They had heard about its unique twist: the cache was located inside the teashop, but to find it, they had to solve a series of clues involving the teashop's history and its beloved menu items.As they walked in, they were greeted by the friendly owner, Mrs. Appleby, who was known for her delicious scones and her love for geocaching. She handed them a cup of her famous Earl Grey tea and a small booklet filled with riddles and trivia about the teashop.Sarah and Tom eagerly began their search, solving riddles about Mrs. Applebys special blend of tea, the history of the teashop, and the names of various scone flavors. Each clue led them closer to the hidden cache, which was cleverly disguised as a vintage teapot on a high shelf.After a fun-filled hour of hunting and sipping tea, they finally spotted the teapot cache. Inside, they found a logbook and a few small trinkets, including a tiny teacup charm. They signed the log, swapped a trinket for the teacup charm, and left a note thanking Mrs. Appleby for the delightful experience.As they left the teashop, Sarah and Tom agreed that it was one of their most enjoyable geocaching adventures. They had not only found the cache but also made a new friend in Mrs. Appleby and enjoyed a lovely afternoon in Tilden. And as they drove away, they both chuckled at the reminder in the teashop: "Don't Forget To STOP! And smell the tea!"Come visit SA's longest running annual event -keep the Long weekend free- June 2025 Can't wait!!2588

We didn't forget to stop. Quick solve and find. Another one of this series down and 1 cache closer to 1500 multi's. Found with Mogni. Plan A trip involved us going to Farina to the bakery up there since the bakery is open only 6 weeks a year and take the 4x4 so we can get more of the caches that aren't on the highway. This trip was supposed to be 3 and a half or 4 and a half days long. It turns out that life changed at the last minute and the trip got shorted to 2 days. So we travelled up just to Port Augusta to place the JAMS account virtual reward 4.0 cache and place my adventure lab cache ( and a couple more that just happened to fall out the 4x4 ). We targeted more dirt road caches since we had the 4x4 and replaced the caches that had broken containers, any caches with logs found full or almost full were replaced. The wether could have been better for the trip but all the heavy down pours happened between caches and we just cached in light rain.

Sir_spectre has been unwell for a few weeks, so we decided to take a weekend off from chores and go and have some fun. many caches were found, many caches now have new logsheets a couple of containers even got replaced. As sir_spectre had his car, so we tackled some of the dirt roads and got his car dirty.Thanks to TheKellyGang from mogni RazzRed FaceBig Grin

This is it the final cache for our Capital GeoBash week long getaway & the final day of my streak. I made it to a 32 day streak, which may not seem like much to many - but it took a huge commitment along with many planned trips away from home. Not to mention the 1000s of extra km to bridge the bits in the middle when I was at home and having to do 150km+ each day to find a cache. But with no new getaways in the near future I can no longer justify the travelling distances to get a cache for streak maintenance. And now as we bit late afternoon and still have many more km to cover, its time to buckle up and get on with it. TFTC!

Martini.989 wanted to turn a frown upside down on a nearby cache. With that done, I said theres another one not far away, might as well get that one too. Turns out this was the last find of our Canberra adventure.

Fourth and last day of the dynamic duos venture north. Got up in Port Augusta and looked out the window to find it was a little damp outside, the promised change had arrived. This helped us make up our minds that it would be a day of sticking to the list and trying for an early arrival home. Managed to stick to this plan and after four great days away everything on the list, and then some, were found without even one DNF.
Thanks to TheKellyGang for placing this cache on our playing field.
Cache #13948 for me.

On the return trip after going to Coober Pedy to find a cache for the last LGA required for a challenge I’ve been working on
The roadworks are in full swings both sides of Lochiel, so it is steady going, it will be good when it’s completed.

Away for a few days with Featherwaite and Team Astro.

The plan was to get all the whyalla caches as well as the FTF series and the FITG caches.

Nearly got them all, just a few left for next time.

A quick find in the obvious spot.

Time to get on the road again and cover some kilometres with ilook4geo. We spread out some stop along the way to break up the trip. There was no problem in finding each cache and signing duties were soon done. Thanks go to TheKellyGang for placing this cache, which was easily found, even with muggles close by.

Decided to do some distance today with goingplaces2 with just picking up a few caches along the way. Selected them at random and achieved the day's goal. Thanks to all the CO's who added to our tally for the day.

13-Nov-20
This weekend, I headed to Whyalla to catch up with a few other Geocachers and attempt some of the trails there. On Saturday, we targeted the FTF power trail from Whyalla to Iron Knob, and then spent the evening and the subsequent monring driving some of Whyalla's back tracks. On Sunday, I visited Cowleds Landing and back north, only to get severely bogged in one of Whyalla's clay pans. I then returned home via the August series.

Today, I travelled from Adelaide to Whyalla, making a few brief stops along the way. I needed to arrive at Port Augusta for the geocaching event, and after having dinner, I made the slow approach to Whyalla finding the geocaching trails along the old road, including *Port Augusta's First PT* series, arriving rather late.

The numbers were soon obtained from the sign at the posted coordinates, and I made the quick dash to GZ, where I soon found the geocache. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks TheKellyGang for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

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.
Had hoped to get 3 multis this weekend but 3 became 2 which was better than none. The numbers were sorted out whilst we were still sat in the car and the cache found in the only place it could be. TFTC TheKellyGang, you must stop for a lot of cuppas!
 
04-May-19
We needed a break so pulled in for lunch. Did the sums and made a quick find thereafter.

In a Multi-Mood i wasn't passing this one on my way home.
It was very simple so i knew it wouldn't take too much time... and it sure didn't. It was worked out and i found myself at GZ in a jiffy signing the log to the hurricanes of passing trucks!! SL at 11:38 on Sun. 28 April 2018.

TFTC for showing me a most cool place for a cuppa Smile, TheKellyGang Smile

As we (Pascal3sechzig and I) stopped here I saw someone running around with a phone and a pen in his hands and obviously searching for something. I allready thought that he might be an other geocacher and ask if i could help him.
We found the box and logged the cache. We had a nice chat and exchanged some TB-Numbers.
This was a nice random find. Thanks for the cache, happy new Year and Greetings from Germany

Camped here last night and it wasn't too bad with just a bit of traffic noise occasionally. As it was dark when we arrived we left this one till this morning and Mr Beetle went and got it while I prepared the campervan ready to move on.
A very simple multi and the first one we have tackled on this trip to the 'big island'.
Thanks.

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Travelling back to Adelaide after working north and decided that is was time for a break and this cache had the perfect title. So had to stop although I was a bit worried that it was a multi and how long it would take. But stopped anyway, gathered the required information, assembled coordinates and plotted them and was surprised at the location. Wandered to the final and quickly found the cache, signed log and replaced. All in between traffic. Great stop. Refreshed and onwards.

Not quite time for a cuppa but we stopped anyway. Took up a few moments to realize it was a multi! Noob error! We smiled and cached the cache and moved on.

Catching up with some late logs, therefore this unfortunately is going to be one of 'those logs'. I apologize in advance for the generic log, A combination of limited time and too many to log dictates that a generic log is best. I have enjoyed the hunt and being outdoors in this great country of ours, partaking in a pastime that I thoroughly enjoy. I usually head out by myself, but I thank those that have had the misfortune of my company in some of these ventures.

Thanks TheKellyGang for placing this cache.
 
22-May-16
Well of course we DID forget to stop! But not by too far. At WP1 the info was soon extracted and after a stroll the log was signed.

Day two of the Nullarbor experience was here. I again joined the convoy of Alansee, Maccamob and Mica Paramedic for another day of fun, heading for Port Augusta, then I would do my own thing for a few days before joining them again in Esperance. Today, we would drive from Murray Bridge, to Port Augusta via Gawler, just over 380km of driving. We would log our finds as MAAM, AMMA, AMAM or some other combination of those 4 letters.

We only just had a cuppa break, didnt really need another one, but stopped for the cache anyway. Thanks again.

**Thanks to TheKellyGang for the cache. TNLN**

I plugged some corrected coordinates into the GPSr last night, not knowing the answer to C, but knowing it wasn't going to make much difference. We remembered to stop on our way back to Adelaide today, and found the cache immediately. Driving off, we saw the sign and of course it all made sense.

Left a travel bug for the next finder to move along.

Thanks TheKellyGang.
