Scavenger Hunt Sunday - September 7, 2014

Hello & Welcome.   -  I hope you have all been enjoying a nice weekend.

It's been a good week.  The first week of school is now under our "belts" so to speak and so far the Granddaughter (Coleen) is enjoying being in the 4th grade.  -  We took our first trip back to the Frozen Yogurt shop this Friday as is our tradition on Friday's after she gets out of school.  We had a good time eating the Yogurt and visiting with each other.

 
 

So now it's time to join Ashley (Ramblings and Photos) for,
SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY    This weeks prompts were:  Color, View, Stroll, Outfit and Blocks.



I always love it when people are able to combine all the prompts into one event and even more so when I can pull it off.  That's exactly what happened this week.  Yesterday we attended the annual "Wheelin' Walla Walla" car show held downtown.  So without further ado here are my takes on the prompts.

COLOR:  There were cars of every color imaginable there at the show but this color combo caught my eye.



           Isn't that a cool color combination - Very bright and shiny too.

VIEW:  Here's a different view of the car show:


I caught my hubby's reflection as he was chatting with someone at the show in this tire rim.  Funny thing is I also caught myself taking the photo.

STROLL:  There were lots of folks strolling down the street looking at all the cars in the show. 

OUTFIT:  The art work on this car was something else.   I can't image what the rest of the outfit looked like.


BLOCKS:  Okay these aren't exactly traditional "blocks" but they are blocked shaped.


I had the worst time getting pictures of orange cars for some reason.  This car is actually orange (not yellow like the photo).  Below is the actual color of the car just so you can see what I'm talking about.  It was either the angle or the way the sun was shining on the car but I could not for the life of me get the above picture with the fuzzy dice and the car to match up the orange colors.


We had a lot of fun walking around looking at all the different cars at the show.  I'll share more photos of the show soon.

Sadly my camera is now in need of repair so I may be without it for awhile.  I'll try to participate with my old Point-n-Shoot the best I can until I get my camera back.

  13. Hi Ida!
    The NO PEEKY! signs cracked me up.

    What kind of camera do you usually use?

    I have a Lumix. I guess it's a point and shoot, but there are lots of menu options to choose from. I used to have a 35mm, but it was so heavy, it was a hassle to take around everywhere. It was like carrying a toddler. I find I take more pix she I can just slip the camera in my pocket or purse.

    But as I get older, I find I take fewer pictures. That being said, I became the photographer at my Goddaughter's bridal shower. And since they are getting married on an $800 budget, I was sort of asked to take pictures at the wedding. Point and shoot, don't fail me now!

  19. Great photos. That was quite a color combination on that car. You did a great job capturing the view in the tire rim. I bet it was fun strolling that day looking at the cars. The artwork is amazing, but I don't think I would have looked either.
