*Another big geocaching trip to Australia with woolwood9.*
Our main focus was on the "On Your Bike" Wherigo series, which we really enjoyed.
Biggest disappointment was solving all the Paddle Steamer puzzles, then driving within 4km of them before finding the roads all completely turned to sticky slush and unusable!
*We visited many other good caches and other trails on our trip and had a lot of fun!*
**Really appreciate the effort put into this cache.**

Another cache find on our 2022 South Australian Adventure. It is a wonderful day. albeit cold, windy and rainy with patches of sun. Just perfect for geocaching.
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.

Thanks hevwalker for the placement.
We were initially concerned about how close this cache was going to be to the church , as there are people obviously living there now [8)].
Quickly found . TNLNSL.
Thanks Hevwalker.

The forecast temperature today was listed as reaching 39 degrees so we planned our cacheing day around spending maxium time in the A/C in the car and minium time out walking trails. Today it was fantastic that we did not find that we needed to renew any cache containers or log books/sheets. Well done everyone. All the caches we targeted today were found to be in good order.
There was, of course, the mandatory flies and dust and more dust and more flies, we can live with this as we have the technology to deal with the flies and dust.
We did encounter roads that we have never travelled on before and were very surprised when we came across a water way at Bugle Hut that had at least 300 swans on it. We traveled down a road that had the strangest collection of items attached to the trees, there was fans, lamps, boom box, frypan, stuffed toys, CD's with red reflectors, asstd computers bits - monitor keyboard etc. It felt like every road had an old house on it. We saw house's where the lawns were so green while all the land around them were as brown as can be.

Out with Mattycat for a caching trip to the riverland for the day, with temperatures 40 C we decided to pick some easier caches that didnt involve walking to far and keeping cool in the geomobile. With Loxton our starting point we head east to the Border even crossed the border for a few in the park before thunderstorms ended the day. A quick find as we hurried to collect our last few caches before the storms hit, quite a big crack running through the wall of this one, will take a bit of renovating

Nothing like the lure of a 40 degree day out there to make us want to go caching!
Actually every day we want to go caching
So took off with Mr froghoppin for some "east of Loxton" caching. Got a bit sidetracked and made a small incursion into Mexico along the way
Altogether a great day finding caches, mostly that were within reach of the airconditioned catmobile, and dodging any sign of people and their bugs along the way [:o)]
That's gonna need a big makeover with cracks like this one !!! But miracles happen and it might be a great reno rescue one day
Appreciation goes to hevwalker for placing and maintaining this cache on our geo game map
That was it form me for the day. Now just the trip home literally dodging trees in the pouring rain and lightning all over the Sturt Highway An interesting day indeed.

Searching around every day finding and signing using some or all of the resources of GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife), Whereyougo, Garmin Montana 750i, Montana 680t, Etrex 35, Samsung S20+, Samsung S9, with Geocaching App, c:Geo, or Geooh Go, and Android Auto and other maps... or often with just plain old dumb luck Quite a lot of that actually!!!
*Logs are composed and published using GSAK of course.*

Please do stay as safe as possible when caching.
Keep a lookout for bogs, snakes, surprise cliffs, boxing roos, wombats, bulldust, and floods,
try not to get tetanus from rusty mint tins and don't fall out of trees...
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- but especially lookout for bugs from alpha to omega !!! . [xx(]
Try to keep Travel Bugs as the only bugs you share and pass on
Now our borders are open - even more important to sanitise and safely distance!!!
Much appreciation of all those placing quality caches out and about around the countryside,
in sensible safe places especially! - it keeps our game safe, fun, and interesting

Enjoying exploring the area with Sewthat and Honeysucker. Found after a short search. Thanks
quick find. at least it wasn't a mint tin at gz.
Out with the Mogni for a short trip out to the riverland, only 3 days. It was hot first 2 days where 40 degrees and the last day was 33 degrees. Since the rules just changed about covid 19 testing before and after entering vic to no testing, we changed our plans on the way up and decided to go via Murray Sunset National Park. The idea was to find as many caches as we could that haven't been found recently most hadn't been found in 3 months. On day 1 we replaced 10 out of the first 12 caches, all broken container and 1 log book replaced, and by the end of the day had a heaped medium bin liner bag full of broken containers, the hot mallee sun doesn't do the plastic containers any good. Day 2 saw us caching around Loch Luna and lake Bonney which is way easier driving around here in the dry then in the rain like my last visit here. Onlt 1/2 a medium bin liners back of replaced containers today, people must fix the closer to the highway caches more often. On day 3 it was back in to the mallee country and home via Pinnaroo. Getting those " out of the way caches ". Plenty of dirt roads where driven down and many, many back sandy tracks taken. It was good to explore all the country areas and stay off the highway.

Sir_spectre and I had a quick getaway to the Riverland. We were targetting the less found caches. We found an assortment of caches, and as regular for us manged to replace containers for several and put some fresh logbooks in others. It was a rather hot weather for a weekend of caching but the air conditioned car gave us some relief.
Thanks to hevwalker from mogni

Mallee trip with the geo-pup. Day 8, Paruna to Loxton and return.
Not much sign of life at the church, some major repairs now required.

Well this was almost a park and pray grab. While the cache still felt shiny and new, it had seen a few services.
Thanks to hevwalker and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]
Out for a couple of days of caching with Astro to clear up Wandering Heroes and the Around the World in 81 Caches series.
We met up with EGregory1 and Featherwaite to do he Around the World series.
A quick find while touring around.

After all the rain we’ve had over the past few days, it was a lovely, sunny afternoon to take a drive out to Nangari and find this cache. Thanks for a new cache in our region, hevwalker. Cache #3522.
After driving for what seemed like 37 hours I rocked up at my sisters house ready for a weekend of caching tomorrow. Bedraggled and slightly weary I sat next to her on the lounge and opened up Cachly. She had been waiting patiently for me all day so she was still spritely and energetic and her eyes spotted the tell tale FTF tag. And so we were off. It didn’t take much to convince me. It was nice to have this joint FTF to start off our weekend and to also add to my current obsession of used 2Bs. TFTC
With my sister H423L to get this joint FTF
Raced out hoping to get this as soon as she got to my place not even letting her settle in
Thanks Hevwalker for this FTF
