Scavenger Hunt Sunday - November 16, 2014

Welcome -  It's time to join Ashley (Ramblings and Photos) for SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY.

This weeks prompts were:  In a Row, Salty, Sweet, Sitting Down, and Just Because


Lets get started on this hunt:

IN A ROW:


 Coleen and I stopped at the High School this week so I could take a picture of something else and then I spotted this out in the field and figured it would work great for the "In a Row" prompt.  This is one of those things they use for football practice.  I have no idea what they are called though. 

SALTY:  This one is a BIG stretch...


Tiny little flakes of salt or rather snow on Eric the cats head remind me of salt so that counts, right?
 
 
SWEET:
 

Coleen is a sweet little girl and her she is holding a very sweet lookiing turkey cookie.  Which I might add she said was so hard (the cookie) that she ended up throwing it away after eating about half of it.

SITTING DOWN:

I snapped this shot of Helix sitting down in the snow this week.  He doesn't seem to mind being out in the cold but then again that's all the life he's ever known as his owners don't bring him in out of the cold and no he's bascially on his own.  We feed him and try to make sure there are blankets in our shed to help keep the outside kitties warm during the winter.

JUST BECAUSE:


I spotted this tree when I took Coleen to her piano lessons and had to snap a picture of it, "just because" it was so gorgeous.

So that's it for this week.  If you want to join in the fun next week here are the prompts.

  • 1. Double
  • 2. Friday
  • 3. Memories
  • 4. Busy Day
  • 5. Where I Stand

      Nice interpretations Ida! That tree is gorgeous. It is odd to see people with snow on the ground. We got snow once last year and I am hoping we'll get some again. See you next week. Condolences to Colleen on the cookie, but it was cute!

      I think they call it a blocking sled.

      I love your beautiful tree. You took a picture of it so it is your tree.

      Good on you for taking care of the outside cats.

      Those are so fabulous Ida, and had me smiling thru the whole post. Oh my goodness is Coleen ever growing up. I remember getting to know you a couple, (maybe three) years ago now and she was still such a little girl. (I remember that one sweet picture of her swinging on that swing and being so full of joy.) She's a little lady now. Feeling a little sad for Helix and the other outdoor cats. I'm so glad you leave them the blankets and a way to get into the shed. That's so very good of you. Hope you had a wonderful weekend and your next week will be even better.

      How fun! Gorgeous tree, and the little sprinkling of salt on Eric is perfect!

      Your pictures are so creative! Maybe the "Salt" one is a stretch, but the snow on your kitty's little head is precious. :-) And your granddaughter is very sweet looking. Too bad the cookie wasn't as good as it looked.

      It's a shame to have to throw away such a pretty cookie. I like your interpretation of salty. I don't know what the things in a row are called but I think they use them to practice tackling.Love, love, love that tree in your just because photo!

      I need to get back to doing the SHS! The snow flakes on kitty are so cute! What a great capture! As for that cookie, it looks delish but I've noticed that sometimes those pretty cookies are only pretty, not tasty! Have a great week!

      Oh, poor Helix! I'm glad you help him out a bit. I wonder why Coleen's cookie was so hard!

      I love the dusting of snow on the cat. I can totally see that as "salty." Coleen is always adorable. What big eyes she has! Great set.

      Helix is similar in coloring to my kitty. Cept he has tail and mine does not. LOL about the cookie. It is cold here fr the /s/o/u/t/h/-as in our daytime high might be 50 and we have a freeze warning for tonight.

      That tree is *gorgeous*. Had internet trouble which is why I am late in commenting.
