Summer Scavenger Hunt: Part 2

When I traveled to Detroit last weekend, I had my traveling companions on the lookout for the scavenger hunt items I needed. We found a few, and they had a great idea for one of the items I thought would be the hardest. One of the things I love about this project is how easily my friends and traveling companions jump into the project helping me find just the right photo.

#16 on the list is “a sign in a language other than English. The first one we encountered was in Canada at a rest stop.

But then when traveling on the People Mover in Detroit one evening on our way to the Fort St. Presbyterian Church,we found even better signs side by side.

I thought #10, a photo bomb (someone found lurking in the background of a photo) would be another difficult find. But Betsy’s niece popped her head into a photo I was taking of Matt and Tracy on Father’s Day. I think Nadia was surprised to find out I was HAPPY to see her in the photo!

I knew I’d have another entry for #2:  a garden gnome, since my mother-in-law discovered her neighbor’s garden gnomes. Now I have some in a garden setting. (And they’re a lot cuter than the ones I found at Wegmans.)

I took some photos with my iPhone (the signs were also taken with my phone) of a public garden (#19) a few blocks from our house. I have them in my SmugMug album, but I’m sharing the beautiful public gardens at The George Eastman House here.

And one of my favorites from the evening, taken as I walked back into the galleries. 

You can find more information about Rinda’s Summer Scavenger Hunt right here. It’s never too late to join in. The hunt continues until the last day of summer. I’ve finally added Rinda’s graphic to my sidebar with a link to all my Summer Scavenger Hunt photos in my Smug Mug album.
