Half of the Goldy's are off to Saddleworth today so MotherGoldy can attend some book writing thing for nerds.

While she is doing that, I'm off for my own type of nerdy hobby.

I ended up with 12 finds for the day and 0 DNF's.

My Mum still wasn't done hanging with the book people, so I came to Riverton to grab this cache simply because of my love of duck ponds and wetlands.

Some muggles pulled in at the time I arrived but they were off on a walk, so I had the area to myself.

I found the cache pretty quickly. I'm unsure if it is supposed to be where I found it as it was kinda just thrown in and had no cover.

I wasn't sure where it came from but I put it back where I found it.

Cache and contents are all good here.

Thanks TheKellyGang for this traditional cache, which brings Goldy's total find count to 3544 on the 2nd of September 2023.


CITO's are a brilliant way to help keep our community area's clean. The Earth is our playing field and we need to protect it!

Always be sure to cache the "leave no trace" way!


**South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!**

The JAMS crew went on an October long weekend adventure back to Clare. We brought Tallbikestan along as we were targetting the bike tracks and he is the best rider amongst us. Allister W and sir_spectre we the other main riders, with JJ52 and I the support crew and walkers. A huge weekend of fun and adventure was had by all, until I made SS sick with my cold....oops.
Thanks to all those who have kept not just the bike tracks but all the other caches alive for us to find.
All caches signed as JAMS.
Thanks to TheKellyGang from mogni Smile
 
01-Oct-22
one of the few caches found before doing the nearby bike tracks. quick find.
The JAMS team ( JJ52,Allister w, Mogni, and sir_spectre minus mitchell&hound ) but Tallbikestan was with us instead and we where out for there usually monthly caching adventure. This time it was over the october long weekend instead of the usual day trip. The taget this time was Drop into the Light a long ladder cache on the way to clare and then to clear the Rattler trail, Riesling Trail, Ne Trail saturday on the bikes and then sunday do the Mid North Channel Country bike trail. Monday on the return home was to get Peter's view a 2001 cache. Of course there was many, many other's found on route to the various target for the weekend, somewhere around 260 found by the team. It could have been more but we were not going at a flat out pace, just steady and getting a blow out on the bike 1.6 km's from the end of the Mid North Channel Country bike trail didn't help. I didn't see any snakes this trip but allister did, he saw 5. The caches this trip where written in as JAMS, i forgot the stamps. Also 1 cache was placed by the JAMS team this trip. Out of all the bike tracks i preferred the Rattler /Riesling trail. I like riding through the very rich ( after all the recent rains ) fields of yellow flowers.

Today was a big day out of caching with part of the JAMS crew today it was JJ52 Allister w and myself.
We met up at 7.15am and headed off on an adventure to the East of Clare. We targeted cemeteries and Used2B churches.
All up we found around 50 caches each as well as a bonus FTF on an amazing cache at Spring Gully.
It was a fabulous day and we all had a great time. It was interesting to visit some smaller off the beaten track historical towns.
Thanks to all the CO for putting out and maintaining hides for us to find.
Great spot quick find met some Moho cachers parked up here. TFTC KellyGang

A caching day had been organised with Michells&hound and allister w to head north and find caches that all three of us hadn't found. It was a great day for caching and we had a lovely day driving on some out of the way tracks and roads, through some of our quaint little towns visiting lots of Used 2B Churches and historical sites. We even made a smallish detour to grab a FTF in Spring Gully Conservation Park. Cool

I have driven through Riverton on numerous occasions but have never stopped to have a look around the town. Today we were able to do that on our cache hunt. Big Grin

Thanks for the cache TheKellyGang. Smile
