love these pictures my friend.
ReplyDeleteAwesome captures as always, my sweet friend. Love them all, especially the turtles.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!
Great pictures you found for the scavenger hunt! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't join this one, because we don't have any
turtles around here and since I don't go into bars
I won't find people playing card games and more
stuff. But I sure enjoyed your pictures :))
Have a beautiful Sunday Anni!
Möwe
you did well in your scavenger hunt.
ReplyDeletewow, you did a fantastic job of finding this long list. i love that carousel and the tent in the dunes. me thinks ye cheated on the photo of you holding the sign, we can't recognize you by thumbnail. LOL...
ReplyDeleteGreat set of photos. I think the one of the turtles has to be my favourite.
ReplyDeletegreat hunting - very creative idea for finding a loaded vehicle
ReplyDeleteThat's one of the most beautiful carousels ever!
ReplyDeleteHello Anni, great finds for your photo hunt. I like the turtles and the view from the tower. Happy Sunday, enjoy your new week ahead!
ReplyDeleteI never thought about doing this scavenger hunt until I saw your pictures. It's pretty cool to see your take on these. I love the picture of you and the bouquet of flowers. :-)
ReplyDeleteNicely done! I love the name of your blog too!!! Thanks for stopping by my list
ReplyDeleteEnjoyable and different. I await seeing others' in this hunt.
ReplyDeleteGood finds!! Good list!
ReplyDeleteWow - got them all - that's great. I have a few more to get. That bridge is scary to me - but then I am not a fan of driving on bridges anyway. All the interpretations are great - love the turtles and the carousel - wish it was not gone, it was gorgeous - and the picture of you with flowers - wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh, what great finds for the day indeed, Anni!! I love all of these!! Hope you have a beautiful day!! Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw your photo of camping on the beach. I thought it was snow. I guess my mind is set for snow...lol.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
My favorite is you in 1968!! Beach camping always looks miserable to me. Sand everywhere.
ReplyDeleteSome great photos there,love the bridge and turtles. BJ
ReplyDeleteGreat finds for the hunt!! So FUN to see someone else from Texas joining in, too!
ReplyDeleteAll your pictures are great. You did a wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteA great scavenger hunt and nice seeing you in that pic!
ReplyDeleteThat was fun! I'm going to see what I can do with this list.
ReplyDeleteAn archive search! That's a fun way to do it. I especially like the wagon overloaded with pumpkins
ReplyDeleteHi Anni ~ Thanks so much for paying a visit to my blog and leaving such a fun comment. I enjoyed seeing your photos and poking around a bit on your blog. What a fun visit! :o)
ReplyDeleteYou have some great photos - love the turtles! Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteYou have done well with the hunt and a good selection of photos, I am not doing so well this year as I haven't been going out much. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteYou got 'er done! I would have to really search to find all the items, even with using substitutes.
ReplyDeleteWhat struck me though, was that public bathrooms at parks looks the same all over!

Wow! Thanks for taking us to Corpus Christi!!! My parents were both born and raised in Houston, and we used to visit Texas every summer. Great tent; lovely bridge and an absolutely stunning capture of Texas A&M. Glad you joined in this year.
