Wish I could say the same for me!
I have the list printed and hung on the fridge door, there we have noted next to each item a rough idea of where we may find said item. This way we know that there will be some small travel involved to find a few. However this weekend sees the start of the school holidays for 2 weeks. Now whilst I am working the first week, the 2nd week the boys and I will have a chance to race round and visit so far away places to get our pictures.
I also have the list on my phone, and the camera is always with me, because you just never know when you might see that picture on the side of the bus or a bird on a wire!
I do so love the craziness of this hunt! Again I use my line from last year ...."but your honor, it was the scavenger hunt I was trying to complete, it had us doing some crazy things!"
Anyway back to the update....
So far I have been successful in finding the following:
a rack of postcards |
A garden gnome |
a rural landscape |
birds on a wire |
a lamp post |
I am a stickler like that, try really hard to find the actual required items before I will substitute.
Hey we've got 3 months you just never know!
I am, of course the person who set up the Facebook page for the Summertime Scavenger Hunt.
I have so many friends on Facebook that are always showing us their fab pictures, so thought I would give them some things to actually challenge them to find and picture.
It has been lovely to see so many people join in the hunt who are not bloggers. I do still enjoy going round the links and visiting the blogs as this is where it started but I am enjoying seeing some friends, who would never have completed the hunt, post pictures of their life surroundings too.
This is after all a scavenger hunt for bloggers and I hope it remains for many years as everyone seems to thoroughly enjoy completing it and always seem to be counting down the days and months till it starts again. However I do love seeing people who have nothing to do with blogging also having some fun.
I post all my finds on my blog page as well as Facebook and do so hope that all the bloggers who have joined the Facebook page will continue to do the same. However I do hope that Rinda won't mind if we use the list each year on Facebook to spread the enjoyment to others in the world. I do always recognize on Facebook as to where the idea came from and who it belongs to.
I look forward to seeing many more happy pictures from a round the world flowing down the internet wire really soon.
Thanks for stopping by.

You are well ahead already - and very observant to catch birds on the wire! That's a great rural landscape ...
YOu're doing great, and I love the addition of facebook this year. I think it's really added to the fun. And I'm just glad I didn't have to figure it out! LOL!

Great start! Love your gnome and your rack of postcards! We are coming to nz next March, doing a motorcycle tour of both islands. Can't wait!
Some great photos there:)
Super photos! Love the birds on a wire.
