| MAIDENWELL PUB |
MONDAY 18.07.2016: H-U-G-E day of travel - 50kms! Can almost say the poodles are back to normal - still administering the probiotics, but will gradually lower them to a maintenance level. Pat, a lady we met at the Country Music Concert suggested we visit Maidenwell, Coomba Falls and the Bunya Mountains.
Maidenwell is a small rural town in the South Burnett Region. Pioneer settler John King dug the first well in the district, hence the name Maidenwell.
Visited the local pub, found out the protocol, then ordered our customary bottle of wine - took a while to locate an appropriate bottle. Carole assisted and tracked one down in the refrigerator - price was unknown so we formulated what we felt was a reasonable charge, but forgot the $4.00 corkage fee to drink at the pub! Parked in the free camp at the rear of the pub, then visited the local Yalbury Olive Shop - Maidenwell has been a V-E-R-Y rustic stop. Completed
the pub survey to determine the viability of Poodle Palace tackling the narrow, winding and at times dirt road up to Coomba Falls and Bunya Mountains. The information was all positive, but we were not prepared to tackle the drive. The warning signs, rain the previous day, plus the fact that we have already had one change of insurance companies greatly influenced our decision!
