29 /5/2024

Found it! After a quick lunch in Kadina I decided to try and grab a few caches around the town. Headed straight for the cemetery but decided there were too many people there to attempt those caches today. No problems finding this one, all quiet here. TFTC!

Found with younger sister on a day trip to Moonta TFTC

Found during a day trip to Monta TFTC

Did a day trip to Maitland to make an impact on Sea Horse series as well as picking caches on the way and home. Did the Adventure Lads at Maitland and Moonta also. Caches were found in good condition unless mention otherwise. TFTC

TFTC SnappyTomCats your cache 10th Anniversary AD Kadina that we found today. Camped at Alford, as the day was expected to be windy we decided to leave the Motorhome here for another day and use the geo-vehicle to cache around Kadina. Out aim was to find all the multis in town as well as any other caches that we passed by. A great day topped off by meeting one of the local COs (Dazzatron) while we completed a stage of the AL.Find Count: 17748

TFTC nice find quick drive by out and about with geo wife LynSteNet

TFTC Out with geo hubby Animal62 on this fine AUSTRALIA DAY, searching for some smiley faces for our maps.

New years caching with Squib Esquire TftC

as we wander through the land, grabbing caches and seeing the sights even occasionally catching up with friends A good day was had while grabbing these caches with lots of miles covered Thanks for placing them *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Noticed this one had a DNF so we dropped by for a check. We were also unable to locate the cache. We have left a temporary replacement after contacting CO.

No luck for us today, widened the search and found super bee hive

We came, we saw... oh, no we didn't see

Travelling Australia in our caravan since February 2014.

We cycled from Wallaroo to Kadina and return collecting smilies. Then back at the van and we jumped in the GeoCruiser and drove back to Kadina to gather a few more smilies then down to Moonta to tackle a few more. Home just on sunset.

Lucky for us the sun was mostly out and the wind was not gale force. The flies were still around though and ever so annoying when they got in behind your glasses. [xx(]

Nice to find this cache in the wild. we spied it prior to it's placement. Happy Anniversary SnappyTomCats

Travelling with iluvtrekking up the WA coast to Darwin, down the Centre and in the Flinders. After spending some time in Peterbough and Minlaton we moved to Moonta to grab finds in Moonta and surrounds. Thanks Snappytomcats

Travelling with richlink from Perth to Darwin up along the west coast and home again through the centre and the Nullarbor. We are on the home stretch now, just a few days in the Yorke to pick up a few caches. TFTC SnappyTomCats

Quick find here.

Great find with the kids!

Awesome find, box was very cute and thoughtful.. kids absolutely loved this one!

Glad we stopped, TBs added to our BIG day of fishing yesterday. TFTC

Catching up on logs. Apologies for the late log.

Found with some Fabulous Randoms while touring the area this morning. Very impressive cache container and logbook!

A trip to the Yorke Peninsula with CPwanderer where we met up with SpidermonkeysMum, GoodLook and TheDame to complete the Seahorse geoart. We also completed some Adventure Labs, attended a couple of events and made several other finds during our stay.

Logs were signed with our own caching names, initials or "FR" (standing for "Fabulous Randoms" - a made up group name to save space in the logs).

TFTC SnappyTomCats

Geocaching is always most enjoyable with friends! What a beautiful cache container.

I was delighted to be invited to join in on a geocaching trip on the Yorke Peninsula. We found a number of caches and attended several events including a CITO, and yours was one of them.

Please know that we wrote the initials "FR" to save space in most of the logs as a group name (fabulous randoms) to cover myself, GoodLook, CPwanderer, Gizmo's Gang and SpidermonkeysMum. Otherwise our caching names or initials were used.

Thanks so much for adding to the fun!

A quick find with caching friends. Certainly a FAV point from me to you for this excellent cache.

Thanks so much SnappyTomCats!!

-------------------------------

A last minute decision to attend some events on the Yorke Peninsula ended up becoming a really lovely, very action packed, 2 very long days and 1 night adventure.

My alarm woke me up at 4am Sunday morning. I'd collected TheDame just before 6am, and we were off to Maitland to meet up with CPwanderer, Gizmo's Gang and SpidermonkeysMum by 8am to attack a Sea Horse, have lunch at the Port Victoria pub, and pick up some random caches prior to a dinner event..... and then it was another early start to find adventure labs, physical caches, an event and CITO - woo hoo!!!

Logs were signed with our own caching names or "FR" (standing for "Fabulous Randoms" - a made up group name to save space in the logs).

---------------------------

Will we see you at the Mega in Adelaide on 29 February 2024?

Check out GCA1DNA to log your will attend and to find out more.

Dropping and visiting some TBs

TFTC

Found during a trip to the Copper Triangle for a few days. Stayed at Moonta and travelled around the district to Kadina and Wallaroo for a very rewarding day of caching. Thanks for the cache SnappyTomCats!

Another quick find tftc

Another cache find with Purrfect Di and Jack...

A bit of a laugh as we see we've been here before. Happy tenth and many more cats

Much thanks for the cache placement and maintenance SnappyTomCats .

--------------------------------------

Cache carefully out there,
it's a dangerous world filled with rusty old mint tins and objects falling from trees
...... but a cache a day still keeps the boredom away

--------

Most of our caches are logged using the resources of gsak, garmin, and androids.
No apples or other fruit needed An apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away, we've tried that

----------
Make sure that Travel Bugs are the Only bugs you share and pass on (Covid cancels caching!)
Keep a safe distance - clean and cache the countryside


It's awesome of all those placing quality caches out and about around our country areas,
in sensible safe places and containers especially! - it keeps our game fun, and interesting

Of course we do appreciate if you actually did read all this extra addition to the log word count! There's a challenge somewhere out there, or so we've been told! You win a virtual smiley for the effort and getting to the end of the log Maybe if I worked out where it is I could do it and go back to normal logs again ! If you find the challenge let me know and perhaps we can put an end to these long logs !!!

[:o)]


The end. For now...


... until next time!

10 years. I'm sure that went by fast!

You guys are awesome so keep it going. See you soon, maybe south of the border!

Thanks to SnappyTomCats and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]

It was Tuesday and time for the Befuddled puzzlers to go for a Tuesday Trek.
There were 5 teams out Tuesday Trekking.
The teams were SA Sewer Rats, Muff1, Brisal5, Astro and Blackadders.
With the Sea horse finished, we made a detour to this one .
Then on to Moonta to find some more caches.
A quick find for the teams today.
All caches were found and in good condition. Tftc

Today's Tuesday Trekking for members of the Befuddled Puzzle Solving group saw Muffs joining us from Victoria and Astro changing some plans to make himself available.
So them, myself and Blackadders all converged on the S.A. Sewer Rat's nest where the five teams headed out towards the new Sea Horse geo art series.
As usual a few were found on the way there and then afterwards as we headed to Kadina for a meal at The Wombat. [^][^]
Getting ready to head home, bing bing bing, new caches published on YP meant we continued caching and got home very late. as you do.

We didn't have time to grab this before dinner so we grabbed it afterwards on our way to the new caches. Now that's a cache. [^]

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

We are staying with SA Sewer Rats for a few days, yesterday we went to Yorke Peninsular and found the Sea Horse caches and a many others that we drove by, there was some that members of our group targeted as they were needed by them for challenges or perhaps for their grid. With our group of five teams a fun day was had but there is still many caches in the area for us to find.
We stayed for dinner at one of the local pubs and this paid off as we were there when a couple of new caches were published and we were able to claim FTF's. SL TFTC

Logging a trackble into the cache.

Congrats on ten years of caching SnappyTomCats. Time flies when you're enjoying yourself.

Jimmy and Goldy are heading up to the Copper Coast triangle to collect the new caches in the area, as well as a golden oldie virtual and two EarthCaches that I didn't understand how to do when I lived up here. I have come a long way since then.

We've lost the Jimmy and Goldy joint stamp... probably left it on the Gold Coast somewhere last week. Oops... So the pineapplegoldy stamp represents both of us this time around.

It was great to return to my original caching home, I miss it out here.

I also visited family in the Kadina cemetery, indulged in the worlds best parmy from The Exchange Hotel and hid a few caches of my own as well as a maintenance run.

It's good to see Dazzatron and Margieh back out there hiding caches, with SaintsMadHouse and SnappyTomCats also having new ones.

Thanks to all CO's who added to the trip, was awesome!

I had visited family down the road in the cemetery and continued here for this cache.

A quick find and a very cool hide.

Congrats on 10 years, very solid effort.

Thanks SnappyTomCats for this cache, which brings Goldy's total find count to 2546 on the 27th of February 2023.


I have hosted quite a few CITO's in my time, making huge differences thanks to the people who came along!

Whether you're out finding caches or just taking a stroll somewhere, remember to always be CITO-ing to help maintain our parks and reserves!


**South Australia is hosting a Mega! February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide. Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward**

Found on a trip with pineapplegoldy.

Happy Belated Anniversary

Thanks

Another afternoon drive with the Muggle Mrs. She had not been up the top of the Yorke for some time so a perfect day to go for a drive where she reluctantly allowed Mr Adder to grab a few smilies.

We were very disappointed that there were no Bakeries in Kadina or Wallaroo for tourists on a Sunday:(. Either they didn't exist, were not well sign posted or were closed but we went around and around the town searching for one with no luck. We had to resort to stopping at a cafe and choose from the grim pickings they had on offer.

All caches were is good condition unless stated otherwise.

A great cache quickly found safe and sound. We took the liberty of grabbing a couple of Path Tags that we reckoned we did not have so thankyou STCats for these prized souveniers. A well decorated cache to be found

Congratulations from the Adders for your 10th

Great cache theme camo and very well stocked goodies

Put a watch on this new cache early this morning. Seaeagle had to get fishy things ready for tomorrows club trip so our departure was delayed. Then as driving though Moonta we saw a clothes rack on the side of the road. Looped back to get it and we are sure that made the difference between first and second place. Was lovely to meet GumAko and friends thought next was a mystery cache and then we had lunch, wandered the shops and We went to the cinema.

We were lucky enough to share one the these weekends with the COs down at stansbury. Sadly we missed them today with us in Kadina and then they were in port Hughes. We then had a cold beer each at their lunch spot.

Thank you for placing this for us to find. Thank you for contributing to the geo map and maintaining when required. TFTC
