SCAVENGING UPDATE

As most of you know, I am participating in the SUMMER SCAVENGER HUNT, organised by our friend RINDA.

 From the list of twenty one items, I can now score off:

 A FENCE



The fence between the outdoor drying area and the rest of the garden

A CLOUD IN THE SHAPE OF SOMETHING



I see an elephant on its hind legs..hope you do too!


A DINOSAUR


A packet  of biscuits (cookies) in our local supermarket...I didn't buy them, just whipped my camera out, to the amazement of a couple of other shoppers!

 A SIGN THAT IS FUNNY

This was bought for me by a friend, a few years ago





 SOMEONE OR SOMETHING SLEEPING


It just HAD to be!....on my bed as I came out of the shower this morning!!

A BENCH THAT IS OUTSIDE



A stone bench in a Square I was walking through (camera  whipped out again!)

A number of us are also sharing our pics on Instagram..you can find them at :

#summertimescavengerhunt

By my calculations,I'm eight down, thirteen to go...how about you?


Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx

    I didn't see the elephant until you described it... and I had to look for it... but it IS there! My imagination seriously needs some exercise!

    I definitely see the elephant, too. Still plenty of time, as normally the hunt wouldn't even be starting for a couple of days!

    Your sign made me smile and I liked the look of that cool stone bench too ... You are doing well. And yes, definitely an elephantine cloud!

    I can see your elephant, my cloud was an elephant, too.
    Love the sign and the sleeping dog. I would be struggling with the dinosaur, need to think outside the box.

    Well done! I got a dinosaur this week too. I love your elephant cloud, but it also looks like an emu (according to my son who is sitting here at the breakfast table with me!)

    Yes, I could see the elephant! Love that you whipped your camera out in the shop to photograph the biscuits! I've got 3 done so far, but am waiting until our holiday to Italy to take a load :)

    Great collection and I love the cloud shot! I think that's the one that is going to give me the most trouble.

    I see your elephant, but I also see a fine looking stag with some magnificent antlers. This is turning into a bit of an inkblot test..

    Love the elephant! I am having trouble with that one. The sky is either cloudless or stormy! I love seeing the pics on Instagram.

    Yes I see the elephant! What a great set of finds, I love the fence, I am struggling with this one as I so want to see a 'nice one' or a really 'dilapidated one' Yours would fall into my nice category.... My dog is my napping thing as well...

    I have found a few but have multiples of some (benches) and am putting them on IG. I think I will do an end of month sharing on the blog throughout the summer :) Oh, I immediately saw the elephant and I am horrible about seeing things in clouds.
