On a very rare and special occasion, I was out and about with my lovely on a mid-week escape. The weather was lovely, chilly air, fairly clear skies and warm in the car. We left home at a respectable hour, wandered through the hills at our leisure stopping for a morning cuppa while taking in views of the southern coast. Great conversation and experiences at a variety of caches. We stopped for lunch in Strathalbyn and had a stroll in the shops and park after. I had not been caching in this area before so there were many to choose from, including a couple armchair solves waiting patiently.

After walking back and forth for the sequenced AL in the park in Strathalbyn, I reverted to normal caching until it was home time. We managed many different cache types and picked up a golden oldie to fill a gap in my Jasmer grid. All up a wonderful day with over 30 remote hills finds added to my tally.

Thanks for the cache Ian Mac. Cache in average condition sitting way out in the open. After signing I put it back at the base of the tree and covered it. Find #8462 at 11.51am. I took the wood chock off the main road so it would not cause an accident.

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/

Today, jesswrigley and I headed to Strathalbyn and Langhorne Creek. We spent a bit of time in Strathalbyn walking around the town's parks completing the adventure lab, and then headed east to a few of Langhorne Creek's wineries. A few stops and tastes of the drops, and as time went on and it got colder, we returned to Strathalbyn for a few remaining geocache stops, and then back home for the day.

This geocache had been on my target list due to its age - an oldie 07/2003 hidden cache. So whilst passing by along the road, we made a quick stop here. We followed the geocache's directions to park on the nearby street, and then it was a short walk to GZ, where the cache was quickly found. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Not much views from GZ, but it was nice green nonetheless. Thanks Ian Mac / Mac & Missus for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
Note that this geocache was logged with the *Team Warren* Davidwazza/jesswrigley stamp.

A nice easy park and walk to GZ. Views aren’t particularly good from right there, but aren’t too bad from not too far away. Not sure why the cache size is listed as it, but it’s a good sized container that is present.

Thanks for the cache Mac & Missus.

Having recently found the Ausmer Challenge cache we had been actively seeking out caches hidden in months missing from our Ausmer grid. This was one of them and so we came to search for it today. The cache was soon located once at Ground Zero and log book signed. Thanks so much for the cache and a favourite point for keeping this golden oldie cache in the game. Greetings from Zimbabwe

Out caching and doing maintenance with Doctor Owl. It was an easy find but the container was what could only be described as masquerading as a swimming pool. We replaced container with a new logbook that was a lot drier. TFTC.

Climbed up to this one then found a much easier way back to the car. [^]
Arrived at GZ and found the cache which was full of water and the log wet. Sad I dried it out as best I could and managed to stamp the log but it really needs replacing in a new bag. Sad
Thanks for the cache Mac & Missus. Smile

Owl was heading home from Victor slowly, finding stray caches as she went. This looked like a climb and more physical exertion that she was keen on at the moment, but then Owl found the back entrance and a quick and easy find was made. Phew!
