A Scavenger Hunt and a 6 word Story

Hello there. It's been awhile but I've had a bit of an Easter break away and having friends to stay too, so things have got out of synch.
 However, better late than never, I've got round to posting my March Scavenger hunt photographs, kindly hosted by greenthumb.

Local
I thought I would start off with some local sheep breeds (Herdwickes) and a local lake (Esthwaite Water)

Measure
A close up image of the measures used for these lovely scales

City
 The city walls and Citadel in the centre of Carlisle

Stripes/ Large
 A bit of a cheat at this one: Stripes and a rather alrge tea cup planter

Crisp
 A very yummy thin and crispy pizza...mmmmm

For one
 Food again....this time lunch and tea for one.

Hair
 Loving the tiny hairs found on this willow

Landscape
Another local view, this time looking towards Skiddaw in the Northern fells 

Street art
 I was out and about for a few days, and whilst staying in Knaresborough I spotted these windows.

Tiles
Not a great photo, but I was trying to get a quick sneaky photo of the floor tiles whilst in a shop in London.

Rocks
Ok, I know it's 4 photos, but these were all a selection of rocks that can be found at our local garden centre.

Stairs
A nice set ofstairs in Knaresborough

Rockstairs
And just in case it was rockstairs as a whole, here are some slate steps!

So you see I did manage it, albeit a bit late. Hopefully next month I shall be on time.

I wanted to finish though with a Six word story as set up by Miriam, telling a story with one picture and only six words.

As mentioned earlier I've been away this week, holidaying with friends and attending a lovely wedding...A perfect idea for this week's theme of 'Dream'


Bye for now. xx

Thaat is a lovely lake you have near you. Now I don't see any word as yet for next month but hopfully Jill will put them up soon.

    1. Thanks for your lovely words Margaret. Looking forward to next month's list but if we don't get one I may have a look at last year's April list and see what we had then. Happy snapping and thanks for popping over. X
