A quick and easy park and grab

I am currently on a road trip from Victoria enjoying Queensland in the days before a family event.
I am driving around getting new local government areas to fill my map and make it worth while in a geocaching way
I want to say thanks to the CO for the placement of the hide

Having a blast on our caching trip out west.
Potatochips101 was on to the hidey spot in a flash. Great spot to recharge the batteries!

Our second find of the day - out and about road tripping to find some caches and decided that Bell was a must do.

It was a quick find by frannymfrog. We then headed inside to grab a late breakfast. Visiting Pip’n’Cherries is a must do - the interior is absolutely stunning and filled with antiques and memorabilia from a by-gone era.

TFTC! Found with frannymfrog logged as 3K!

WallabyTim made this find while MrsWallaby was 'wandering' around across the road. He is awarding this a favourite point - they are raining down for all the fantastic caches in this area! TFTC

Found with Cosmonaut97 and Firebatman88 TFTC

Took a couple of go's....who would have thought this cafe was so popular...and always open??? Except Mondays finally got this one AND met a couple of local CO's - awesome found with silverfox1970 and firebatman88 during our weekend away. TFTC.

Tftc, now to decide if it is lunch or dinner time

While on my way from Goondiwindi to Kingaroy noticed there were some caches in Bell so checked into van park then off to find this and other caches. Enjoyed the hunt around town. Thanks for this cache.

Nice quick find. Log signed and replaced as found. TFTC

Great find

Staying in Dalby for a few days, there are many caches there so we headed to Bell to get our fix.

A very cute hide, we’ll revisit town when it’s not a public holiday to enjoy some PnC goodies.

Ocw the Bebes on a visit to Bell as we travel around Australia. Nice little spot. Tftc

Found by Mary and David at 14:45. Being careful of our weight, so not really tempted for that reward. Another quick one in the second place we checked. Our thanks to Speedmistress.

All is closed but looks like a lovely place. TFTC

Coming back home after visiting QOGM country I decided to detour to Bell and start on all those caches.

Great hide!

Tricky but nice, that’s a favourite tftc

Quick stop on my way through Bell, nice one

love this cache get a fav tftc

The shop was closed and a couple of locals stopped to tell us. While hubby kept them talking a searched. The hint is perfect and aren't they amazing.
Thanks for bringing us here.

After having no luck here earlier we returned for a coffee. As Mrs SKI was getting out of the car out front she found the discarded log book laying on the ground. Rather wet and grubby! While ordering our coffee we consulted with the owner who knew about the cache and said yes, someone had moved or tampered with it. She even brought us the pieces remaining, but no container. We have put things back as she showed us they ha been with a new container and a waterproof paper log. The old log is in a plastic bag with the container in the hide.

Yesterday's caching finished up because of coming showers, and after all the rain overnight we thought that might be it. But after lunch the rain stopped and although it was dark and overcast the wind came up and dried things out a bit. It was still quite wet underfoot and in places muddy so out we went with an open mind as to what we might find and be able to do.
In the end we got most left and broke it up with coffee and a scone at the cafe in town. Car and us both a bit muddy, but a successful afternoon, made all the better by well maintained and creative caches.

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache Speedmistress.

Owner was just closing up and directed me straight to the prize.

Found it almost instantly!

Sneaky little one

Two Tassies out for 10 weeks look around, and more and more being governed by where the geocaches are. Looks like we've hit Speedmistress territory and looking forward to doing most in the area some justice (two puzzles remain a mystery). This is the seventh (and a FAVOURITE) on our lengthy trip from Chinchilla today, taking into consideration the back roads we travelled. We were alittle tentative about searching for this one as the coffee mistress was shutting up shop and being busy in and out of the premises. Spotted something which didn't really have a good excuse for being there, and then the penny dropped. All in good nick here. Thanks Speedmistress for the 7th of hopefully many more.

Found 15/7/23

We are currently house sitting at Bell, with so many caches placed in this area how could we not go and find a few. All the caches we found are in good condition thanks to the CO's viglience with their maintenance. As per usual we have used geocaching as a tourist guide to the area. SL TFTC

Why are we staying in Bell[?] Oh because there are lots and lots of geocaches including puzzles that we solved ourselves! Yes Ourselves! Sadly this morning it was freezing so a late start then home for soup for lunch before heading back out hunting. Did I mention it didnt get over 10degrees until after 3pm!

Dropped by here at lunchtime but half the town was here, so dropped back late in the day. all good.

On my way from Canberra to North Queensland with a few detours for shires. TFTC.
Great little spot. Tricky hide. Not open at the moment.

Out and about on our first geocaching adventure in a few years as we have fallen in and out of love with caching over the years. ATM looks like were back in as we both had a ball today.

A quickish find made even better that we met Strongbow 77 face to face while we were at the caches namesake for morning tea.

Thanks for the cache Speed Mistress, been a while, glad to hear you are still doing well.

Tftc Speedmistress, sadly no refreshments available on Good Friday
Nice hide.

After partaking of refreshment found the cache.

We stopped here for lunch yesterday and didn't even realize there was a cache here, so had to come back today. TFTC Speedmistress

We were lucky here as it was early in the morning and no one was having coffee. We came back later for a very nice lunch and coffee under the shade of bottle trees.

Heading home from the Wangaratta Mega and stopped in Bell for a couple of days. Day two and our final day caching in Bell. Not a bad grab yesterday. We planned to ride around on our bikes to grab those within the town limits, but the wind was coming up and might be a struggle to get around, so we opted for the car.

Got to be a hot day in the end, so it was great in the car's AC. A couple of DNFs for the day, not sure where we were going wrong. It was a shame that the little Cafe was closed, hopefully not for too long. Fav point

Thanks Speedmistress for the caches.

Having a quick look around Bell before back to our Bunya Mountains holiday house.
This looks like an interesting cafe - it was not open which was fortunate for the cache hunting but unfortunate for afternoon tea options.
Very cute cache guardian was soon found. Clever idea.

Continuing our caching in the area we stopped by and found this one. It was a pity we could not get a bite to eat as the shop was closed. The cache was discovered with a cute container nearby. Thanks Speedmistress for this one.

Taking the long and scenic route home today from Dalby via Bell for a few last smileys. We saw great landscapes and found great caches once again today. Thanks to all the CO's for placing and maintaining these caches for us to find!

Hi there Speedmistress, we found your cache PnC today.

We are slowly meandering towards Hervey Bay, and have stopped off in Bell for a few days.

Nice camouflage on this one.

Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache near where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: The container and log are in good shape.

A great day in Bell with Team DES, after our weekend in Cunnamulla.
Bell was a great place to stop, and during the day, we paused to have lunch from the nearby supermarket/ takeaway and sat outside.

Found by Team DES (Domsky, E_Smiley, Snickersallan) on our way home (via Bell) from attending the very enjoyable QOGM (Queensland Outback Geo-Muster) 2021 Paroo. Can't wait for QOGM2022 Murweh!

Thanks for the cache and taking us here Speedmistress. Enjoyed the adventure.

Finally arrived in Bell, had a lovely morning tea and all geared up for an overnight stay.
Love this countryside and it is very rewarding visiting towns/places for the first time.
All finds in and around Bell were fantastic, found relatively quickly and to save room on the logs we signed as Something Catchy/Team DES (domsky, E_Smiley & Snickersallan)
Apologies CO for the generic logs, your caches are a real credit to you.

Had a great brekky in the company of Caro and Kestal...a half benny is an awesome idea - not seen that before and it was spectacular! Wandered around to the event at the appropriate time. Not long after Davinells showed up and we ducked over to make a find here. TFTC Speedmistress.

Thank you, Speedmistress, for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Showing to friend.

Ventured out to Bell for an event that was right next to this GZ! After signing the event log book we started our caching day by making this find. Nice spot for a cache. Tftc Speedmistress

Found it after grabbing the coffee and realising that we had not actually found the cache as we thought. Luckily Toally and his kids were on hand to hand it over and then the kids popped it back. Okay now it was definitely off to the CITO.
