Winter Scavenger Hunt

While we were traveling I managed to find some more items for the Winter Scavenger Hunt being hosted by Joy and Eileen. 

As we were leaving Rochester early in the morning, we saw a beautiful sunrise, and I saw some gorgeous bare trees silhouetted in front of it. There was no way to get a photo there, but Tracy (always a great help on these searches) left the expressway at the next exit. Just a few miles down a two lane road I was able to get this shot.

And here’s a Waterlouged version:

We love Frederick, MD and often stop there for a meal or to walk the streets downtown on our way south. This year, it was just an excuse to get out of the car for an hour and the only thing we got were two items for the scavenger hunt. Frederick is know for it’s street art, and it is truly amazing. I thought I had previously posted a few of these from an earlier trip, but if I did, I can’t find that post quickly. This one is one of our favorites, just off the main street.

And here it is close up.

Also in Frederick, I found my first arrow on the very top of a beautiful church steeple.

And two more, one in St. Petersburg, FL and the other on the sidewalk in Fort Myers Beach, FL.

I found these berries along the way on one our walks in Florida.

Just outside the North Carolina Museum of Art where we saw the fabulous M.C. Escher show, was this line of fountains.

I like this view of them through the trees.

Another stop on our way was Savannah, GA. We stopped just to have dinner and found a wonderful restaurant in an old inn. Just down the street was a small park with a fountain.

We had some amazing wind while we were in Fort Myers Beach. The worst of it was at night, but there were a couple of days where it was a challenge. Sadly, the photos of the palm trees don’t make it look as windy as it really was!

Since we’ve been home, I’ve found a few more, and I’ll be back to post those in a day or two.
