It's time for an update on the scavenger hunt being hosted by Mary-Lou at Patio Postcards. I found 11 of the 25 items in June and I was certain I'd find most of the remaining items on the list while we were on vacation. In fact, by the end of the month I'd found them all. There are a few I'd like to find better examples for, but the pressure is off. I have several photos to posts for some of the items.
Number 4: A zigzag. I found this one at the McKenzie Barn Sale:
Tissue box holders
Number 5: A seasonal relaxing space.
Jetties Beach on Nantucket
Number 6: A pipe
At The Heritage Gardens in Sandwich, MA. This also is another entry for #10: Something Yellow
Number 7: The inside of something. I have two for this one.
The idea for this one came to me while cooking breakfast in Nantucket.
The inside of a geode. Also works for #20: Something found underground
Number 9: A kite or a balloon.
This kite was hung in the dining hall at my niece's wedding.

On the porch at The Fisherman's View in Sandwich, MA
Number 20: Something found underground:
Oil well (oil underground)
Marble sidewalk and wall (marble from underground)
Number 22: A dial. I found several sundials. I'm sure I could find some other kinds of dials, as well.

Thanks for hanging in there for a LONG photo-heavy post. You can see the entire collection on Smug Mug.
We had a lovely weekend in Toronto. I'm hoping to get a travel post up in the next few days about our vacation as well as the weekend away. I finally have most of the photos sorted and edited.
