November's Scavenger Hunt

Welcome to the final Scavenger hunt of 2017 - but never fear it will be up and running again in January 2018 :)

So, without further ado.........

Blue...
...As the summer sky above the walled garden in Malham in June. 
Me...
...in the autumn sun streaming through my summerhouse - was actually taking photos of the cat in the sun when I noticed ... my reflection.
Starts with a ... W
... wheelbarrow, lollygagging in the meadow.
Rainbow...
... over the community hall on our art weekend - perfect!
Arch....
...tree slices slotted in a metal brace making a strange otherworldly four legged creature
Toy...
...Moss' first family chrimbly - and her first proper pressie - a squeaky toy bone. The bone lasted longer than the squeak - thankfully.
Swirl...
...just look at that tail - you could not wish for a squishier, floofier, swirlier tail than that now could you?
Brush...
... or several brushes - my now preferred weapon of choice. What's yours?
Nail
Walking last Sunday, I lugged my camera around with the plan of snapping a rusty nail on a fence post or gate, only to find that I'd left my SD card in the laptop - sigh.
So, Youngest came to my rescue and using his cell phone we found and photo-ed a couple of nails - I could not make up my mind which one to use - so I have added both :)

My own choice...
... a row of little crooked pearly whites just poised for the approaching dog biscuit - does it make you laugh as it did me? Hope so!


There, that's me done, however, I will be back on the 1st December as part of Julie's Scrapbook Advent Calendar 2017.

  1. Wonderful set of photos, especially the arches, but also your ME, the squirrel & Moss. My weapons of choice are still my hands, to sew/knit/crochet/garden/cook & of course lots of huggling. Thank you ever so much for hosting this HUNT as it makes each month memorable, keeps the grey matter working & seeing things around us in a new light. The camera gets a good workout too, making the purchase very worthwhile. Take care & huggles.

  3. Fabulous interpretation of all your words; Youngest deserves a pat on the back! Love the arches photo. So we've a month off, think I will be using my favourite tool even more, crochet hook (closely followed by sewing needle). Thanks for all the fun you've given us.

  9. Love your interpretations of the titles. Wow, that blue is really blue and the pictures of Moss are lovely, especially her pearly whites. . I love the picture of the arch, I had forgotten about that one and as for the swirly squirrel tale, makes you want to touch it. I love your unusual words you often use. I always look them up if I don't know them. I'm good at lollygogging!! (spend time aimlessly; idle.)
