Finding time for the Hunt…


This has been a busy week.  When I look back on it, I am not really sure why.  But I haven’t had much time to spend in Blogland.  However, I did manage to get out and take quite a few photos so I have submissions for this week’s Scavenger Hunt.  The prompts this week are:  Walking, Yummy in my Tummy, Favorite Toy, What I did this week and Anything.

On Friday this week I went with my daughter Carrie to Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts to check out the Bridge of Flowers.  The Bridge of Flowers is an old trolley bridge over the Deerfield River that connects the towns of Shelburne Falls and Buckland.  Since the late 1920s, the bridge has been planted with flowers making it a very pleasant way to cross from one town to the other.  Carrie and I had a wonderful time WALKING across the bridge even though the flowers aren’t out in full swing yet.  It was still very beautiful.


Once on the Buckland side of the river, we walked on until we found a place to have a little ice cream.  Here’s my new favorite flavor, Caramel Moose Tracks.  It is YUMMY TO MY TUMMY!


My FAVORITE TOY is my Nikon D90.  Duh!


One of the things I DID THIS WEEK, I have mentioned already.  I went out to Shelburne Falls with my daughter to the Bridge of Flowers.  Here’s a view of it from the car bridge that stands next to it.


On the Buckland side of the river while we were walking along, I noticed a door that had the number 42 on it.  If you are a Douglas Adams fan, you know that 42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything.  That’s my ANYTHING!

Just spent some time googling Douglas Adams... WOW! what a guy! I knew about him but didn't recognize his name. That ice cream does look yummy!
I noticed the quote in your blog header - have you read "The Language of Flowers" by Vanessa Diffenbaugh... I think you'd like the book because it talks about what flowers mean... love, compassion etc. check it out.

What a wonderful way to utilize a bridge! I love the flower and shrub plantings. I also love ice cream and that flavour is a good one. Have a super week ahead. Pam

That is a pretty walk way and the bridge is quite a view. Who was Ashley fooling when she listed 'favorite toy' - should have gotten straight to the point: show me a picture of your camera.

Nice set.

Great set. Loved both shots of the bridge of flowers. What a wonderful place to take a walk.
Mmm that ice cream looks delicious.
So many favorite (camera) toys this week. I went a different route as I don't think of my camera as a toy - Not that you or others do.
