Lovelys to run into Dstrbn! Off on another adventure around Strathalbyn! Thanks for the cache, found with Chloe!

Travelling with iluvtrekking from our home state of WA on a SA caching foray. Staying in Milang a few days to do the Nurragi track caches and to grab others in the area. That track done we are ranging further afield to grab some finds. Quick find. Left fresh log sheet. Thanks for the hide. LNCU

Found!

We visit Swan Hill, Mildura, Renmark, Barossa Valley, Victor Harbour, Tailem Bend and the last night at Ballarat. Stopped for few caches on the way. We had a lot of fun travelling these roads and seeing the farms and wildlife along the way. We found a range of caches. Many thanks to the CO's for placing and maintaining these caches.

Paddle Chick and myself are heading to Murray Bridge area. Getting caches along the way and very hot today

After setting up our tents at the campground, Bullertrout and I are back out getting a few more caches. TFTC MooskaMouse#16698

Number 9, one of the weirdest Beatles songs was Revolution 9, do yourselves a favour and NEVER bother listening to it haha.
Idioms
"to go the whole nine yards-"
"A cat-o'-nine-tails suggests perfect punishment and atonement." – Robert Ripley.
"A cat has nine lives"
"to be on cloud nine"
"A stitch in time saves nine"
"found true 9 out of 10 times"
"possession is nine tenths of the law"
The word "K-9" pronounces the same as canine and is used in many US police departments to denote the police dog unit. Despite not sounding like the translation of the word canine in other languages, many police and military units around the world use the same designation.
Someone dressed "to the nines" is dressed up as much as they can be.
In North American urban culture, "nine" is a slang word for a 9mm pistol or homicide, the latter from the Illinois Criminal Code for homicide.

What do half of these Idioms actually mean?
Thanks for number 9 MooskaMouse.

Found with 2011*turtle on a day geocaching around Strathalbyn. TFTC

Made a mark on this little circle of caches today. (Only I've signed for the 29th). My bad. TFTC and series Toxicmouse5.

Thanks MooskaMouse

Another geocaching trip to Australia with tmann421.
This time to SA and surrounding areas.
Enjoyed the caches and the sites
Signed logs tm/ww NZ
Thanks to all the cache owners for their efforts in placing the hides.

*Another geocaching adventure with woolwood9.*
We visited many good caches and trails on our trip and had a lot of fun!

*Really appreciate your effort, MooskaMouse putting this cache series out.*
We soon located the container.

All logs stamped: *tm/ww NZ*

Another lovely day in Tailem bend with BettyBoo3747 and the geodoggies.
We drove down to Victor Harbor to do some AdLabs and assorted caches (and ride the tram out to the island). Unfortunately, it was drizzling, cold and generally miserable in Victor Harbor so we changed plans.

We thought we would try a few of these just to see what they were like with the aim of coming back another day. We ended up at #17.
We only stopped then because we were both soaked from the long wet grass.
Good sized containers for this series, but I think the logs could be a bit bigger.
Thanks, Robmc.

#20164. Day 19 of our holiday in SA . Plan A was to drive to Victor Harbor to do some AdLabs and take a trip out to Granite Island. It was a sunny morning when we left Tailem Bend. We did some caching on the way and as we neared VH the wet, cold, drizzly rain moved forward to meet us. Also with the start of the school holidays the place was so, so busy. We cut our losses and turned to Plan B - that was to head back to camp and grab a few more on the return trip if we could without getting too wet. Managed to find 28 caches and do a couple of AdLabs.

Noticed this series on the way to VH so thought we might do just a few if it wasn't too wet on the way home. Well, we did do quite a few and we were utterly soaked through by the time we gave it away and headed back to Tailem Bend.

Thanks Toxicmouse5

Yet another find on a great afternoon out with crystal1984 and the kidlets

Another cache find on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. A beautiful day today, perfect for geocaching. All good here TFTC.

We are enjoying our time travelling SA. Fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs & wine. Thanks to all the COs for taking us on this geo-guided tour.

Staying with friends nearby. Cool today but we've rugged up to do a little geocaching. This was one we targeted and found. Thanks Mooska mouse

We had been saving the Bletchley trail of caches to do now to help us attain the December ‘Reach the Peak’ souvenirs.

We were able to find them all.
Many thanks for the series MooskaMouse

found with mogni. Out for a drive and grabbing a few caches we always seem to drive by then heading to Strathalbyn to complete the Bletchley series plus a few Roads that never were that where close to that power trail and then getting a few more strays on the way home.

Out for a Sunday drive with Sir_spectre and Chloe the geodog. We had a plan but it changed slightly so Chloe could join us for the fun day out.
Thanks to opted-out user from mogni

Out on a caching day with BearyOrganised and Tigtog08. Nice quick find. Signed log Tftc

We decided to do this run of caches today with ilook4geo after the rain had stopped. They were all easy enough to find and each log was stamped, sometimes with difficulty as several were soaking wet. These have been noted on the appropriate pages.
Thank you to MooskaMouse for placing this series of caches.

No problems in finding this series of caches along with goingplaces2. Most were on good order with only a few having problems. Each cache was retrieved, the log was signed and all was replaced. Job done! TFTC.

Day 9 of our trip away, staying at Strathalbyn for a few nights on the way home from the Millicent Mega. Today’s focus was to pick up the Oz Mega Signal geoart.
138 finds for the day and 716 for the trip.
A quick find here.

Out on a map clearing day in the Strathalbyn area grabbing caches wherever I can find them. TFTC

Easy spot. TFTC

Found while caching round the area at JLWE 21. TFTC!

Night raid to get the numbers up for the weekend. Some were found, some were not. TFTC.

Chasing numbers this evening with Tweety2 & Bubbles8 and this was conveniently located to help us add to our tally. Off we set with torches at the ready and made fairly good progress, alas we didn’t quite get them all before the clock ticked over for a new day. TFTC!

I had almost all of March away from caching to concentrate on the Garden. Time to get back to working towards my goals for the year. Today I need both a multicache and a few others to get to loop 11. So it was back to finish the Bletchley series via a newish multicache at Kanmantoo!

Another quick find and another cache of temp log and no egg, despite the nearby chook farm. [:o)] This time I looked around the vicinity first and not finding the leg contained stamped the temporary log sheet. And with that the series was complete and I thank the CO for helping me out with near caches to do without having to drive to the city. [:X]

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers to single digits. That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

***Thanks MooskaMouse for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. ***
Logs prepared and published through GSAK.

Out chasing numbers again and today it was the October OTD and the Bletchley series and anything else that seemed like a good idea. Managed to finish what I'd planned just on dark with over 60 finds and only 2 DNFs.
Thanks to MooskaMouse for putting out this cache for me to find

What an awesome day! The weather was fabulous, we ventured around areas we normally fly pass on the highway.
We came across some beautiful scenic views, travelled roads not travelled before, searching cemeteries/graveyards for long lost relatives and even having lunch outside an old church.
Geocaching along the way, we had 3 DNF's, picked up 3 TB's and had an absolute ball/

Reasonably accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find of what looked to be a replacement container. The logbook has been wet but has now dried out. Thanks MooskaMouse for the cache.

Nice relaxing find TYFTC

In all are travels we would not have even thought to traveled to this location.
(Ha Ha). In your dreams, these cachers do.

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

Devilish

Brilliant and Clever

I like it

Another one off the list

After spending the day with our family we headed back to the caravan and decided that we had time to find a few caches. We found a wide variety of GZ styles. All caches are in good condition and required no maintenance. The other good thing we find with country road, there is very little traffic. Thanks for placing all of these caches for us to enjoy. SL TFTC

Out for a drive to Langhorne Creek we took a strawberry shortcut through Bletchley to get this geotrail most were easy finds and only a couple involved a short search

TFTC

A nice drive today with Jack, Purrfect Di , and Sebastbat.

Thanks MooskaMouse for placing this cache on our map/gameboard

Stamped team Mattycat.
Enjoyed this newish cache series. Nice sized caches with a touch of variety.

In Port Elliott today, cooler day today, out for a few caches this afternoon. TFTC

A quick find,TFTC

Looked for a long time but couldn't find the cache. Came back later and replaced the cache.

The cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

Easter 2020 was supposed to see South Australia Geocaching hosting the next Easter big MEGA event, GeoVenture 2020 at Millicent. GC82DAN. Due to COVID restrictions the event is now postponed to early October 2021. Check out the event page and our website for new details. We would love to see you at this four day event. Mega event sponsored by Wattle Range Council, Geocaching.com and many other supporters. Lots of caches to find with two classic geo art trails including the famous animated bottle and glass.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...

Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Having a day trip to Strathalbyn while staying in Wallunga and stopped for many caches while out and about. Thanks to all the COs for placing these caches to enhance our visit to your area.

Out and about caching today and aim was to do as many of the Bletchley series caches. This cache found and log signed . TFT MooskaMouse

Came to Strath to spend the day and clear a couple of geocaches in town, and do this series (which I guess could honour the famous Bletchley Park decrypting facility in England during WW2). I had not been on this road before. Thanks MooskaMouse.

Good spot!

Log is wet on this one...cute cache!

After the SPLAT event at Shepherds Hill I decided to head to Strath and collect a few caches before catching up with my SIL who has recently moved to Strath.
I found 20 or so caches and had a great day out.
Tricky find whilst crouching TFTC

Wet log TFTC

This afternoon after work, I headed to Strathalbyn primarily to complete the new *Bletchley* series, but also to visit a few others around the outskirts of Strathalbyn and in the town itself. It was a free evening for me, but one of the worst weather-wise - most of the evening it just drizzled and was damp, and walking through soursops and weeds had my runners drenched by the end of the night.

As mentioned, this series was my objective, and I had probably left these to later than anticipated. It was completely dark by the time I got going at 19:45 hr, and in the end, the whole series took me 1-1/4 hr. Most of the caches were reasonably quick to spot, with a few causing some grief. I also found the caches hidden quite away from the road, and having to walk through weeds and soursops tough to keep motivation, since they were full of water, and drenched my shoes and clothes. For the majority of the series, I didn't see any other cars, so probably not a bad location to have this power trail. I started at #1, and continued in order to #25. I do admit that I tried taking the small loop around the other way, going from #18 to #25, and the track quickly disappeared to a few fields and waist-high weeds, to a fence and bushes. I'm sure glad I stopped to survey my approach, and realised there was a full running creek with steep sides - there was no way that there was an existing track through that way.

For this cache, I pulled over nearby, and after a few minutes, I located the cache. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks MooskaMouse for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

In Strath for lunch with geokids, so on way home we stopped for a few of these on way home. We did #1-14,, with most found easily with the good hints.. save for #1 which we found 11m west of listed co-ords.

Thanks

I saw this series published and thought I would get to it one day and today was it a but earlier than expected. I started in reverse as it was easier doing it solo that way. All the caches were easily found and are in good condition.

Today after attending my early birds event in north Adelaide I Alex see to head east towards Monarto to complete some of the walking trails before heading to strath and back home via the back roads collecting caches. All up 72 finds for the day

Thanks for the cache

Quick find with Beary Organised but not so easy to get at. TFTC Mooska Mouse. TNLNSL

Easy find with CherryRose but bit tricky to get to the log. Tree got in the way and some one screwed it up really tight. TFTC TNLNSL

Love the container

Thanks MooskaMouse for this cache, and the series.

I had the most wonderful day caching. I met up with family at the Monarto junction and we headed south. Picked up 3 of 5 in the Monarto woodland, then completed all but 2 in Ferries McDonald. A GC phone app glitch had me without a GPS for all FM, I was disabled and without my usual directional ability. Thankfully my sister had complete control and guided us through the dense woodland to achieve all we set out to.

We headed across to Bletchley and had a wonderful lunch under a tree by a creek, and were joined by two more keen mugglets. With access to a hotspot I was able to reload the app and I was back in the land of GPS. The five of us headed off and collected every one of the Bletchley series, taking turns at finding based on which side of the car the cache was on. Thank you to MooskaMouse, CP Wanderer and Niftybridge for placing and maintaining these caches, it provided us with a stunning day of caching in awesome weather.

I had come for a drive down to Strath today to complete the new Adventure Lab along with the Bletchley caches and a couple of others that have been placed since the last time I was down here. [^] It was a nice day although a bit grey and windy, but I did find all the caches I looked for and when I had finished I revived with a nice mug of coffee and scones with jam and cream.

I started the Bletchley caches from #1 and found most of the caches quickly with a couple taking a bit longer as the GPSr settled down. Just as I was getting used to the containers and hides a couple of "others" popped up. Noted that #19 is disabled so I didn't attempt to go down that track and made my way around to the other end to finish the series.

Loved the drive along here with the lovely green and yellow crops and at one of the caches I disturbed a couple of big kangaroos and watched them bound away through the field. Bumped into weredunn4 coming the opposite way and we looked for one of the caches together.

Thanks for the cache and series MooskaMouse.

Found in an unsuspecting spot! TFTC

Loved this series. Easy to find, consistent and fun!

Out with Trail06 to cleanup this series.

All were found quickly.

Quick find with CPwanderer, clare007 and Aussie M&M on a cold morning.
TFTC and the series MooskaMouse

Out and about caching with clare007, Gizmo's Gang and CPwanderer caching on a very cold winters day. Aussie Mary had arrived with an injury so she had to be careful today.
We ended up leaving one not attempted really as it appeared to be on a driveway as opposed to a road. Saw a farmer coming thru the main road end, so Aussie Mary was happy to not be driving thru that 'road'.
We all made several finds today, loved the creek near one of the cache placements and the canola was in flower today.
TFTC and the series MooskaMouse.

Today myself, clare007, Gizmos Gang and AussieM&M completed 25 of the 26 caches in this series. ...... see my note on #19. Weather was pretty foul but in the end the heavy rain held off and we remained dry. Absolutely spot on co ordinates for each cache. We were disappointed that the inner container and logsheet were the only thing in the "small" caches as there was certainly room for a few swaps to make the series a bit more kid friendly. All 25 were quickly located . Excellent hints!!! Thanks Mouskamouse for the series!!!

A quick find with CPwanderer, Gizmo’s Gang & Aussie M&M, thanks for the cache MoosaMouse.

I was not expecting that!

TFTC and series.

*FTF* at 5:28pm. I came for a drive after work to find a few new caches. A nice way to spend the evening before driving home. I ran into Otter61 along the way and we found several caches together. TFTCs MooskaMouse
