Found container in poor condition, new ziplock bag provided to protect logbook.

If anyone has a spare waterproof 500ml container to replace the old one or can whip out their roll of gaffa tape for running repairs and keep this cache in play.

Thanks to the many hands and minds taking time to set out hides and showing us your part of the world

Today Tankengine and I were leaving Adelaide and heading to Tailem Bend for the night. Not far, but we had always intended to head here before Adelaide and we also were going to spend two nights to collect a heap of wanted caches. But with changing plans we were still happy to have at least one night there.

So we spent the day slowly travelling down and collecting a few fun caches and sight seeing along the way.

This cache: Quick find and a nice old cache. Tftc Team Canyonero!!!

Chooo ooo [Found] with dty73 on our SA Road Trip! So nice that the borders are slowly starting to open! Thanks Team Canyonero

I was coming down to Monarto for CPwanderer's event so a plan was made for the day with erine14. I had a few caches and the two Adventure Labs targeted around Murray Bridge before heading to Monarto. [^]
We had a great day with perfect weather and managed to get the AL's and 19 other caches on our travels. We spotted lots of sleepy lizards out and about as we drove or walked past. Did lots of walking and by the end of the day I was well and truly pooped. Big Grin

After leaving the even we decided to find a few of the close caches before heading home. Cool

Driving right past this one so had to stop for a quick find. Big Grin

Thanks for the cache Team Canyonero. Smile

The zoo looks interesting

Today, I was headed from Adelaide down to the south-east to Glencoe for a weekend of cave diving. It so happened to be another GeoVenture2020 weekend around the vicinity also, so a good chance to catch a few events. It was a late start than usual, as I wanted to time my attendance at skuzzybear's Tailem Bend event. Running ahead of time, I called past a few geocaches around Monarto and the outskirts of Murray Bridge, before dropping in to dinner, and then continuing along the highway via Keith and Naracoorte. In the end, it was a late arrival at my accommodation, but a few enjoyable detours along the way.

I noted that this one around the corner was itself a nice historical 07/2005 oldie. I had planned to drive along this road anyway for killing some time at the power trail ahead, so made the stop here. The cache container was fine, but the logbook is really getting full, so it probably needs a CO check in the near future to update/replace. Thanks Team Canyonero for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.
