Making hay while the sun shines with rain ️ forecast later today. Heading to Port Vincent and surrounds with iluvtrekking. Thanks 3LG
Couldn’t resist another TOY run on the way home from my fishing trip. Only a slight detour . TFTC LiB
Found on my York Peninsula caching Odyssey. I enjoyed the scenery and the caches. Thanks 3LG.
A short stop here today, managed to find the cache nicely hidden and all is well
With 2.5 days free and nothing to do, what better than to head to the yorke peninsula for a few days. I made a plan of trying to clean up majority of the caches on the peninsula going from cache to cache. Managed to come away with only a few left and 247 finds for the few day trip.

Touring around the mid Yorke with Purrfect Di today.
The Team Mattycat stamp today means the two of us passed by
We saw three brown snakes today, which changed our plans a little to avoid roadside long grass and find a variety of quality rather than quantity caches!
Always nice to find one of these big ones,
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache on our map LíB

Stay safe,
wash your hands,
sanitize, exercise, even wear a mask if hayfever season affects you and
cache all the regions safely distanced at least an adult brown snake's length apart ! ! !
Come wine and dine in the Barossa sometime soon and feel free to leave a few new cache hides out this way

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children.
We left our camp in Curramulka to move on the Maitland, caching as we went.
Another TOY off the list. Thank LiB

Found during a caching tour to visit some of the 'Towns of Yorke' series while over on Yorke Peninsula for a few days. Thanks for the cache LíB!
Found out with Beary Organised on lovely Autumn afternoon. TFTC TNLNSL easy to find becuase of size. Thanks 3LG
Time to move out of camp and head furhter north again, picking up some caches along the way. Couldn't take the caravan along some tracks, so felt a bit restricted today. Plenty of other caches were available to keep us happy. Found a couple of multi caches as well as a selection of traditionals, while travelling along mostly back roads rather than highways.
This cache is another in the extensive series to be found in so many towns, districts and localities of the Yorke Peninsula. Thanks go to 3LG for all these placements.

Having a lot of fun caching around the Yorke Peninsula with goingplaces2. All the caches that we found today had two more names added to the log. They were then put back in their place. This was a nice easy find. TFTC.
Spent the day clearing some more of the map around Central Yorke Peninsula. Still a few more to go though. TFTC.
Day 4 visiting Yorke Peninsula with geo friends Waz and Vic, Ardom, Gcoven, JACS Team and joojoo57.
Today we set ourselves a target on the Gone Fish'n trail and of picking up a few others along the way.
All logs were stamped with our team name SWAG-JJ
A big thank you to all CO's for the time and effort in placing these caches for our enjoyment.

Team SWAGJJ is visiting the Yorke Peninsula this week to complete the geo art and collect traditionals, multis and other types along the way. Seeing some amazing country side and views as well. Thanks to all the COs for placing these caches.
Yorke Peninsula Day 4: Last day on the peninsula, so we decided to make a big dint into the fishing line today - up before dawn and collecting caches at a very rapid rate. Got as far as we could do while staying sane, then went on to collect a bunch of other cache in the area. All logs signed as the group "SWAG-JJ". TFTC!
Travelling down from Queensland with my fellow cachers Snickersallan, Waz and Vik, Ardom, Gcoven and JooJoo57. We have planned a week long adventure to collect all the geoart, the fishing line and anything else we can get. Thanks for the cache!
Day 4: Time to hit the Fishing Line. Collected a few others as we avoided the drizzle and visited small towns to drop some tourist dollars in.

Find # 5183
Day 1
Found with sharkiefan
A Big week was planned to travel around South Australia, staying in Minlaton, Tarlee and Adelaide. We cache along a number of Trails, managed to grab a few off the beaten track, some well known caches and the odd one that came up on the map as we were travelling around.
It ended up being a massive week of 2960 odd kilometers travelled, with day find counts of 25, 256, 361, 318, 66, 205, 104 and 76 (yep thats 1411 for the 8 days)
1062 micro, 238 small, 60 Regular, 45 large, 3 Virtual and 3 Other.

Found with FUF009.
We headed out of St Arnaud, VIC early this morning and drove practically non stop to Minlaton with either totally random stops for caches or specifically selected caches.
It felt like a very quick drive despite it actually being about 8 hours all up.
Such a nice change of scenery and nice for both of us to have free range caching rather than the limited range St Arnaud has left for FUF009 and difficult Melbourne caching for me.
All caches found were in good form unless mentioned at the start of my log.
Apologies for the generic log but I just can't do individual logs after the mass of caches that were found. I'm so tired they all have merged into one big cluster.
Thanks to all the COs for their hides. Tftc

This afternoon we explored Minlaton and surrounds using Geocaching as a guide and picking up a few caches on the way with Roostaman and this was one of them. An easy find at GZ.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Out for the day with LLL51 and Madham02 with the aim of finding LLL51's 1000th cache. [^] A plan was hatched and we started off with 14 caches targeted, hoping we didn't have any DNF's. The weather was not looking too promising, but we managed to get them all before the rain really set in.
Another big bucket out in the bush. We didn't see the farmer today.
Thanks for the cache 3LG.

Hi there 3LG.
We found your cache **"T.O.Y Run : Koolywurtie"** at 12:11:00 PM today. (This makes our find count 17250).
We started the day off by nominating a cache some distance away from our camp site and then took a route that was mostly determined by the next closest cache according to our GPS. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around the area & ended up finding quite a variety of container types, and sizes hidden along our route.
We found 17 caches today & DNF'd 4. Without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.
###Thanks for placing a large cache here. It is really sad to note that the trend of placing small caches (without swaps) is increasing. While nanos and eclipse tins sometimes have their place in an urban environment these, along with 200ml Sistemas, seem to be the norm these days even out in more remote areas. It made us feel really glad to find a large, kid friendly cache here.###
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Whoooo Hooooo Joint FTF with GoodLook at 9.05 pm. When we saw the TOY Run ... Mt Rat had already been found we were sure this one would have as wel l ... but found a blank log!!
Joint {*FTF*} with CPwanderer. Woo Hoo, gotta love that!! [^]
After co-hosting 'Another Fab Pub Lunch' event in Adelaide with Feathertop on a crazy hot day, I collected CP and drove us over to the Yorke Peninsula with one goal in mind - to collect all of the new T.O.Y. run series, a few BBB BBBBs and As Time Goes By caches.
We left Adelaide about 3pm and I dropped CP back home just after 4am, so 13+ hours of driving and caching on the beautiful YP ....the things we do for caching!!! HOWEVER, we did manage 21 golds, several silvers, plus I targeted a few other specific caches in the area.
The coordinates were excellent [^], some of the hides easy finds , others a little more challenging , but ALL of them were enjoyable finds - GEOCACHING ROCKS!!! [:X] [^]
