2012 Summer Scavenger Hunt

  • by

It’s the official end of summer today, and thus the end of the summer scavenger hunt hosted by Rinda. You can see her post here. This year I managed to find all 21 items and posted about them here, here, here, here, and here.

My first find for the border item was the international border between Canada and the United States. As Tracy and I traveled this summer we tried to capture all the border signs for the states we traveled through. We never saw a border or welcome sign in Kansas (coming or going), and although I’m quite sure we took photos of the welcome signs in Ohio and New York, neither show up in my Lightroom folder for the trip. But here are 16 more border signs:

I loved hunting for the items on Rinda’s list and am already looking forward to next summer’s edition.

  1. Wow! This really gives a sense of how many miles you logged this summer; especially if you realize how big so many of these states are. What a terrific adventure you two had. Thanks for playing along with the scavenger hunt.

  2. This is great! we don’t really have anything like this in the uk because our counties are quite small! A lovely way to track where you have been.

  3. I have enjoyed seeing your scavenger hunt photographs this year. I think, hands down, you must have taken the most border shots. What a fabulous adventure you had this summer.

  4. For a country the size of Australia we have very few states and territories – seven all up. I love this idea and would love to do it myself but I can’t imagine it happening quickly as our distances between borderlines are so huge! Great shots!

  5. My! You passed through a lot of country. You were busy! I had some unusual borders I passed through or over. I got to take pictures of a time zone sign and the Continental Divide.

  6. What a fine collection of signs – it makes for a really striking big, pulled together image. It’s always a pleasure to visit your photos Karen – roll on next year’s hunt!
