When I first started the 2012 Summer Scavenger Hunt the 21st September seemed ages away - now it is tomorrow, the summer has flown by. I think here in the UK most of us spent the summer waiting for the summer to begin, I certainly did. It rained so often that by August I had given up on summer. Then September came and we have had a couple of weeks of sunshine, those gorgeous Autumn days when the light it bright, and it is warm. This last week I have found myself when at work looking out the window and just wishing I could be outside. I love these days. I just want to be outside walking.
I have managed to get all the photos for the Scavenge Hunt, I didn't think I would find a swing but I did, and I thought the bride was going to be the really difficult one, but I found one in the end. Here are the last few:
I actually took these train photos a while ago but didn't post them, the first one was taken in Bristol, it the train that goes to the SS Great Britain along the side of the docks. (no. 5)
This train goes along the seafront at Weston-super-Mare.
While at Weston I took photos of the pier, although I have already posted a pier, I thought you might like to see this one as well.
I didn't have a photo of myself standing by something that symbolises my nation until today when a colleague from work took this photo, a typically British telephone box (no.21). There are not many of these lovely red telephone boxes left now but this one is on Glastonbury High Street. Some of them are being turned into mini libraries, pop over to
this blog to see one.
And here is the swing hanging from a tree, the one I didn't think I would find (no.20)
I am also posting another outside stairway as it is so pretty.
I have thoroughly enjoyed doing this scavenger hunt this summer - my thanks go to Rinda of
Gallo Organico. I will look forward to another Scavenger Hunt next summer.
