Yep more facts about number 24 ...............
The number 24, a figure that to the untrained eye seems like nothing more than a simple 2 digits but this little numerical value is anything but simple.

This figure appears everywhere, included in many religions and is the choice for many of the world’s greatest.

24 is the atomic number for the chemical Chromium, a hard silvery gray metal.

Four and Twenty was the name of a 20th Century race-winning American racehorse. Born in 1958 the horse had a long career until retirement in 1971.

24 is the number of carats in 100% pure gold.

Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey are divided into 24 sections as there actually are 24 letters in the Greek alphabet.

The standard for film projection in the cinema is at 24 frames per second.

The average person takes 12 seconds to count to 24.

A portion of cantaloupe, about 1/8th of the melon, is 24 calories.

James Dean, Lee Harvey Oswald, and Chandra Levy all died at the early age of 24.

Interesting hey? Thanks MooskaMouse for the cache.

Found the cache after a concerned person stopped to enquire about my well being. TFTC Toxicmouse5.

Another cache find on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. A beautiful day today, perfect for geocaching. The container lid was broken so we have replaced it to keep everything dry. 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.

Today headed out with The Geohusband and sister in law for caching and a visit to a winery for a tasting and a spot of lunch.
We did about 10 caches which were fun and then back home to the other sister in laws in Strath to watch the cricket.
Quick find TFTC

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

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

Found this with my geo daughter. Log absolutely saturated. Tried to stamp but decided to pop another dry piece of paper in the cache as well. TFTC TNLNSL

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.

This one also had a mushy log that needs to be replaced please.

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.

This one needs a dry log please. TFTC.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

Day 8 of our trip away, staying at Strathalbyn for a few nights on the way home from the Millicent Mega.
53 finds for today and 578 for the trip.
Quick find here, cache found with no lid on and drenched. Let the water out and put lid back on.

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!

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

Out with geo pup for a caching day on my day off from work, nice area cache in good condition TYFTC

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 this good sized container. The cache and contents were in good condition. We were entertained by a family of small finches seemingly living in a nearby tree. Thanks MooskaMouse for the cache.

Hard to believe that this is the first caching day of February for me. But it was the indeed and the first day I could work on my goals for this year. [^] Only need to find a few caches and so I wandered down to this series to grab a few before the heat became oppressive. I had no problems in finding all the egg-cellent caches and soon had my quota and made tracks for home.

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. ***

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

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.

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

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

Thanks MooskaMouse for placing this cache on our map/gameboard

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

Quick find. Thanks for a great morning on the back roads. TFTC

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

Dropped by to find a few more cache around Bletchley.
All found easily, mostly without using the hints.

Thanks

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.

Nice quick find 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.

Yay, my final cache in this series for this evening! 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.

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

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. What is this mosquito situation, they are everywhere, so many of them.

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.

Big one here! (And a wicked fertiliser smell!) TFTC

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

Out with Trail06 to cleanup this series.

All were found quickly.

Found while staying in Strathalbyn for a few days. Found all in the series during a pleasant tour of the area. Thanks for the cache and series MooskaMouse!

A lovely big cache

In and around Strathalbyn with Trigger_Fish this afternoon trying to dodge raindrops which we did for the most part...

A great little trail with mostly easy finds and containers in good shape...

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.

*FTF* joint with Otter61. 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. After seeing Otter61's log in number 25 I started to drive along the trail until I met him here and we found the cache together.
