August Scavenger Hunt



Time to Hunt and Scavenge - let's go!!



BROWN



Two wonderful brown horses



10

Ten or so sunflowers

WINDOWS


An old barn with many windows


PETROL STATION

Jahn and Ben at the NW Washington Fair

BOATS



FRAMED

The lake is framed by trees

CHOPSTICKS

Well, you COULD eat this with chopsticks

TRANSPORT

We had a VW Bug like this - long long ago


This one has a pretty sun shade, I'd love to have this to transport me around town

Or this cute MG, how about you?  Want a ride?

PLAYING

These seagulls are having a grand time



I'm not sure what this loon is playing - but it looks like he's about to kick a soccer ball - ready, set,  KICK!

FANTASY

This horse looks like something out of a fantasy.  It as a very hot day and he was pacing up and down.


Our grandson Ben went to Adventure Quest Camp this summer - they made up scenarios and acted them out - earning points along the way for their conquests.  The leader was a charming young man who came dressed in a different costume every day.

POSTCARD

Mt. Baker and Snow Geese, I think it makes a fine postcard!  Wouldn't you like to send one home when visiting Washington?

    Whatever was that loon doing?? Is that where "loony" comes from? I drove a '68 VW bug for almost 20 years - loved it! - but it never had a visor (and always took 15-20 minutes before it got warm enough to defrost my hands on the steering wheel). And I love your postcard. That many snow geese must be quite a sight to behold.

    That scavenger hunt looks like such fun. Do you get the list from somewhere? Do you look for things to take pictures of or do you check out your albums for ones that fit?

    My first car was a Beetle like that, I loved all the chrome on it.
