By Michells&hound on 16-Aug-18. Waypoint GC7W8K4

Today out and about on 266 of 274 days to get my daily cacher Emerald Using my Garmin Etrex 22X, Garmin Montana 700 and MacBook Air!Thanks for the cacheTFTC

Another nice old church in the series. Final co-ords soon calculated, check sum checked and a short walk to the final. A few places were searched before StreetWalkerNZ laid hands on the cache. Think we have finally worked out what the hint means. We were intrigued to see the mini vineyard next door. TFTC.

#24353. Troodles had a lengthy list for the day, and this cache wasn't on it. However, we were walking by and when I checked logs I found the final was close to the published coords. Thankfully for me that was the case, and the cache didn't take too long to find. TFTC.

14:18After spending the morning tidying up our collection of those "grapes" on the Barossa vines, we couldn't resist seeking out a few more smiley tokens before heading back to camp. Beautiful old building and a sneaky placement.Our thanks to 'Michells&hound' for adding this cache to the geo-gameboard.37779*This log composed and published using Geocaching Swiss Army Knife (GSAK).*

We spent Saturday afternoon wandering around in North Adelaide with our good friends Phetlern.We found a good range of caches as we travelled the streets and parks. We were please to explore this area, the old homes and churches are delightful as is the parkland.Thanks to Michelles&Hound for this multi.

Great cache, quick and easy. TFTC

Last day of my Mega experience in Adelaide I decided to stay local and pick up some urban caches before returning the car and heading back to Brisbane.Upon arriving at a suitable spot to park the car I made my way quickly to ground zero whereupon it did not take long to locate the prize. Log extracted and mark made, I was quickly back to the car and off on the next geocaching adventure.A big thanks to the cache owner for placing this cache and making it available to be found.Cheers

Out and about with sir_spectre grabbing a few caches, he had previously found this one, so this one was all about me Thanks to Michells&hound from mogni

The third day in Adelaide with The Morris. Today was a hot one so the Morris went to do some other stuff and I rode around North Adelaide. Back early for a swim, then we did some caching after dinner.A nice church. We didn't expect the cache to be on Church grounds, but eventually spotted it.Thanks, Robmc.

Finally time to be in Adelaide and we arrived a few days early. We set up camp in Walkerville and settled in for a few days.Today we opted to stay home and out of the heat but after an early tea it was still pretty hot so we headed out for some night caching - not something we usually do but it made for an interesting experience.Thanks for contributing to our holiday.

Out for a long stroll around the Adelaide CBD, and this was on my list.No problems, finding the information at the first stop, and no problems finding the container.

TFTC!

I just had a feeling when walking around the church that the hide would be something similar to a cache in Malvern. That one got me, had me looking for ages.My assumption rang the church bells and this cache was quickly in hand. Sneaky! Grand church. TFTC

Out in North Adelaide & hey 3 Multis I havent attempted. Magnificent buildings in the whole of NA. Did the sums & didnt have far to walk. TFTM

Tftc that was harder than we expected.

Found it

With a morning job being cancelled, I had the morning free so decided to get two souvenirs.

On the way to the first cache of the day I stopped by and quickly snapped the plaque, after completing the first a short walk to this one and found in the usual place.

aka “the coloured mint tin by the sea people”
aka “Minty Man”

Decided to do some cacjes in North Adelaide this afternoon after an appointment. Did them all on foot with Muggle Mum, who walks a lot more slowly than I do. 2.5 hours later, as it was almost dark, I made this the final one for the day. Glad we didn't have to walk too far!
TFTC Michells&hound, nice hide (and I doubted my maths until I found it right there!)

New log book added

Quick easy find with makingpie in tow as my handy-dandy torch holder! TFTC! It’s in great condition.

Great find.

Found it

I decided to stop slacking off and get some more caches in and around the city area.

I gained the numbers without issue and at GZ a quick find was made.

Cache retrieved and signed with stamp.

Thanks Michells&hound for this cache.

This cache brings Goldy's total find count to 1878 on the 21st of October 2022.

too hard

An easy enough find. Many thanks for this series

Tftc

Dropped our Stepdad at a Drs appointment in Melbourne street and found a few caches while waiting. Thank you for bringing us here. TFTC

Find 7 of 29 on another busy caching day - on foot and by e-scooter, hoovering up nearly all the CBD Ad Lab locations around North Adelaide and then when we ran out of purchased e-scooter time, back on foot for the late afternoon.

Nice and quiet out this way for some suspicious activity in a churchyard. All good here.

TFTC Michells&hound!

Thanks Michells&hound for another interesting church multi. I have learnt so much more about our great city through geocaching. Another beautiful old church, and another rhino. A winning combination.

TFTC
Lovely old church, and nice hide

So many churches and still many more caches to do for those churches

Thanks Michells&hound for Adelaide Church Mic #8 - St Laurence's N.Adelaide

This morning I got up and decided that as I was on holidays, the housework could wait! So off I trundled on my bicycle, exploring the city, discovering a few caches and completing a couple of Adventure Labs before this unforgettable year ended.

It seemed like it was a church themed trip today as I visited a number of them.

A quick multi with answer in hand and just as quick a find.

TFTC Michells&hound
Keep smiling

LOG BOOK REPLACED

Down in Adelaide today doing some caching and also to go to the Van Gogh Alive event with the family. 11 cache finds today and a couple DNFs due to muggles.
Arrived at WP1, got some numbers and made our way to GZ to make a neat find. All good here, TFTC!

Checked a few spots and finally found it. Needs a new log book. TFTC

Needs a new log book.

First cache in the city after arriving from all points East. Quickly gathered the data and made our way to GZ for a quick find. Look forward to many more church multis in town.

TFTC

After attending a nearby event, I ventured off to grab a couple of caches.

There was a stretch limo out the front so I assume a wedding was underway in the church.

Coordinates worked out and shortly after the cache was in hand. Neat little container.

Thanks for the cache Michells&hound.

Catching up with late logs.
A spur of the minute decision saw us change our mind and head to SA instead of home from Portland. We were targeting Earth Caches and Adventure Labs as it does not matter about muggles and most places are busy this time of year.

We have collected quite a few Adelaide Church micros this trip and have enjoyed them all, this one was no exception. What a magnificent building that could surly tell some tales of happiness and woes that it has witnessed

We followed the GPS to GZ happy the area was in use today, once we got close the little cache was located in the third place we looked and the log now contains our name.

Many thanks Michells&hound for showing us this great church.

It’s been a nice wander around North Adelaide on foot, thanks for this multi.

Tftc.. your log was sitting inside a bottle cap on the ground... cache however was still hidden... reunited both

Found although I wouldn't classify it as an "other". Really a micro. Tftc

Walked an hour from home with the dogs and UnicornGirl (my 7 year old)
to find this one.

A long walk indeed but no caches closer.
I think we should have ridden our bikes.

TFTC Michelles&hound

A nice quick cache find on a walk around North Adelaide with Jambochicken. We squeezed our names in under Mattycat's log. TFTC Michells&hound

Out and about with bektheraccoon getting some adventure lab caches (while we still can). TFTC

Had to be in town late this afternoon and took the opportunity to collect a quick multi to continue my challenge of a multi per calendar day, this was a required day, found a space to squeeze our name in
TFTC Michells&hound

Currently in Europe so unable to add a new log until beginning of May.
Please find a space between signatures to log.

Log book full. TFTC

Back for a weekend Fringe visit and found some time to hunt with OZGrumpy. A wedding made getting the Co-ords tricky and I was not dressed appropriately but managed to sneak a look at the right time. Getting the cache was easier. Tftc

Thanks for the cache, found with Webberg, on Leap day 2020

Thanks for the cache! Found with conardel on leap day 2020 @1634 - webbers

Tftc, it took me a while to find it.

Tftc, found it after a good hunt.

Cache #2375. Caching Day #995. First find today.
This Saturday afternoon, our whole family went to North Adelaide, to play on the parkland.
Tried this multi, as it’s on the way.
Parked outside of the church, and got the information required for final location.
Walked to final location, which is close by. Found the cache easily.
Signed the log sheet, and put it back.
Thanks for the multi cache, Michells&hound.

Stopped for an adventure lab and to log this find. Thanks.

Was being taxi to and from the RAH today.
This was one of quite a few church multis found between the to and the from.
Thanks Michells&hound for this cache

As I was here to do some other caching activity it seemed reasonable to grab this one. Quick calculations and a quick find. Very full log so I squeezed a B&J in and returned as found.
TFTC Michells&hound

Why is it that 10am on New Year's Day seems way too early for an event[?] Might be that it always seems to be 3am or later when we get to bed [|)][xx(][|)]

Caught up with some wonderful [:X] people at the event (sadly missed a few too ) and had a few laughs then ascertained what the day's caching adventure would be and who with[^]

1 event attended and 11 caches found while driving in convoy around Adelaide made for a fun day spent with muggle partner, Rex, AnyMules, Brisal5, LiB and earthlight [:o)][:X][^]

We needed to be at this church for a lab cache stage and so the find was made of this multi while I was here [^]
Far be it for me to NOT hold everyone else up while I find a cache they've already found

TNLN. SL. TFTC Michells&hound

Today's bike ride took me to several churches,
both working and not
This church is still drawing the congregations,
and a few wayward geocachers too

Impressive stone work here !!
I could tell it was an olde !!
And so I set about finding the numbers.
Numbers crunched I scrunched to GZ for a quick cache find

TFTC and bit of North Adelaide history [^]

08.11.19 tftc well that took a little time, great cache, had gps lock issues but persisted as I really wanted to find it, I haven’t been here for 28 years as I was married in this church in 1991, unfortunately the cache will probably last longer than my marriage did, went for a walk inside and the memories of that day came flooding back, lit a candle for my late mother in law who passed away 7 weeks before the wedding, Thankyou for bringing me here

A lovely solid church in the near heart of Adelaide. After a quick calculation the cache was soon in hand. TFTC

Found whilst walking around North Adelaide prior to walking around Yorke Peninsula. TFTC

Caching day looking for the Mystery at the museum sourveniers
With the company of Earthlight we found the cache and enjoyed the walk with a bit of rain
TFTFun

1st multi cache thank you! cool church and nice area

We dug for a while haha.

Yay. Found it. Collected the info yesterday but muggle was nearby and not moving despite the light rainfall. Came back at dusk tonight and a quick find was made. Photo of a geo rainbow was from previous day. Another fun adventure, many thanks for placing this cache.

Easter 2020 sees SA hosting the next Easter big event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN

Stopped by to collect the clues, calculate the sums and search for the cache. Took a while to locate the sneaky hide, but got it eventually! Thanks for the cache Michells&hound!

GPS spot on but my eyes not so good, found after a short search.
Another great church in the series.
Thanks for bringing me here.

Some free time on a sunny, all be it windy afternoon, meant that it was time for some caching. I decided to head out to some previously un charted territory in North Adelaide to start clearing out that area. Despite the quite chilly breeze that was present for most of the afternoon, it was still quite pleasant. All caches that were targeted this afternoon were found quickly and in good condition, though the occasional scratch from a tree was taken and care was used around the odd itchy pod tree. An enjoyable afternoon all together, even if I did have to fight rather terrible traffic on the way home.

TFTC

Found with vj187. A quick find. TFTC

Found with 2011*turtle. TFTC

In town to attend the Amazing Announcement event and spent the afternoon caching with earthlight.
Waited for the muggles to leave and made a quick find.
Another Church micro knocked off the list.

TFTC Michells&hound

We are enjoying visiting a large number of churches during our current visit to Adelaide. Whilst there are many similarities between churches, each has individual characteristics which make each one unique. Data collection for this cache was straightforward. Reasonably accurate coordinates led to a quick find in an obvious hide location. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Michells&hound for the cache.

Decided to do some caching in the area after a follow up visit to the surgeon to check that all the skin cancer had gone from my nose. Yes! Also love it when the next stage of the multi isn't that far away. Popped into the church to sit for a while as we have just had to say goodbye to geodog Izzy. Thanx

It didn't take long to find the required figures in the shadow of this beautiful building. A quick find of a sneaky hide. TFTC.

Another day another church- don’t think I will get to the end of this series. TFTC

Found on a warm afternoon before a Fringe show. Our first find of the series. TFTC

Easy little multi
Tftc

First find in this series. Secured the required info whilst walking the dog the other night.
Returned today for a quick find. TFTC <><
PS. Didn’t understand the clue until I found the cache.

My fifth in this series. TFTC.

After the (X)traordinary Event i was joined by earthlight and hevwalker to a day of caching on my birthday. I think this is the 3rd one i have done of this series over the last 2 days. quick find

Starting to collect a few of these now and for multi's, they're quite enjoyable [^].
This is a very impressive building .
Cache not found in the first place we looked [:o)]. TNLNSL.
Thanks again Michells&hound.

This was a bit of a pilgrimage as I was married here many moons ago. Sat inside for a while contemplating. Thanks Michells&hound.

We came across this series when checking out multis in Adelaide CBD and we immediately took to it Today, we solved this one quickly and made the close-by find. We think the container and the log were something we haven't seen before, so it just shows that after 2000+ finds we can still come across something fresh Nice job on this one, we look forward to the others! TNLNSL TFTC

Found with Kayakviking on his weekend trip back to Adelaide.
My third find in this series. TFTC

A long weekend back in Adelaide for a wedding was productively spent with ANVIC solving and picking up a number of puzzle caches and any others nearby.
This was a park and quick ponder while in the area.

TFTC from the Sydney based KayakViking !

Saturday was a good day to come.
The Lord's people were probably doing their shopping, or playing their golf.
Noone cared as I stood around discovering the heritage of this fine building,
and noone noticed as I walked the noisy gravel path to a cache!
A place of peace.
tftc Michells&hound and bless you for caching !

Found whilst in the area for an appointment, lovely building tftc

Added a new log as current one almost full

Another Wednesday Walkabout for some of the Puzzled Puzzlers. Today I joined with S.A. Sewer Rats, Doctor Owl and Blackadders in the Snake mobile for our customary search for solved puzzles and anything else that comes in range.
Another Adelaide Church Multi to get out of the way. Well for most of us anyway. We are pretty much used to the format now so it was a quick collection of numbers and another short walk and another found in a familiar place.

**Thanks Michells&hound for this cache. **

Whilst out on a Wednesday caching adventure. the group stopped here.
The Rat, Adder Starfish gathered their info and did the maths.
Then a quick search and the Adder quickly had the cache in hand.
Cache stamped and returned.
Then a photos of the church were taken. Tftc

Another day with some of the Puzzled Puzzler's, An Owl, Rat and Starfish and The adder set out to seek a few more DNF's and a number of newly solved puzzles and yet to find Traditional caches.

A quick search by the adder and the expected container for the series was soon located after the simple mathematics were worked out. TFTC

Another great little multi have found in this series. Cache all ok. A lovely church.Good co ords and easy find. TFTC .

Jumped on the pushbike on a sunny lunchbreak, and rode out from the CBD to grab this cache.
A lovely old church - quite majestic. I did a similar cache in Unley last week. Enjoyed this one and found the cache after a brief hunt - signed log. TFTC!

Found the sneaky little micro. TFTC

Mr Tardis was on a caching day out, and stopped by to complete this new multi.

A lovely old church. I found the cache in the first place I looked - don't you just love it when that happens?

Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Michells&hound.

PS: Sorry for logging 5 months late!

A nice quick multi on a beautiful sunny afternoon.

Thanks for the cache Michells&hound.

Out & about on a lovely, spring day with CPwanderer & Gizmo's Gang.
It probably wasn't the best day to do this one, judging by the cars lining the road.
We took a picture to solve in the car, (just in case) having solved the multi the congregation was just breaking up [:0]
As it was, we had gz to ourselves, thanks for the multi Michells&hound
