It's the 1st of the month
Which means it's
time for my photos for this months Scavenger Hunt
Once again my thanks to Green Thumb at Made with Love
for organising this every month.
1. 11am
Taken from the car on the A47
as we were travelling home after our few days away.
2. Truck
or at least the front of one.
3.Smooth
We have had the Elephant trail in Norwich
This shows just how smooth and shiny they are.
Heres another one with a beautiful
stained glass window painted on it.
4. Scrap
Pile of scrap wood on some waste ground.
Not a very good photo I'm afraid
as it was a last minute find.
5. Carry
Another Elephant, this one painted by our
friend Martin Wall, with a nice sentiment.
Here it is from the front.
and although not Scavenger Hunt photos
here are a few of our favourites
This one is my husbands
And this one is mine even with the lights
shining on it.
The Elephants are apparently touring the UK
over the Summer
so if you get the chance to see them they are well worth it.
Back to the Scavenger Hunt
6. A is for…
Abbey. Newstead Abbey.
7. Scale
I was struck by the different sizes of the windows
in the Abbey ruins, Maybe not exactly scale but I struggled with this one.
8. Match
Matching flower beds.
9. Layers
Some very clever Topiary.
10. Logo
The Bin it logo.
11. Paths
These go through the estate of Thoresby Hall.
12.Tile
I love these floor tiles .
So that's my contribution for this month.
A month when I've been very quite haven't I but
with various bits and pieces it has been a bit trying
Still, today is my 32nd Wedding anniversary and
Saturday is my Birthday so time to
look forward and have some fun maybe.
A great collection of photos, I love all the elephants. I saw a few earlier in the year when they were in Stoke on Trent - I remember the pirate one! Newstead Abbey looks a lovely place to visit.

Great photos, love the elephants. Happy Birthday and Anniversary too.
ReplyDeleteThe elephants are really fun! They did something similar here with ducks because the sports team at the university is the Ducks. I love the stained glass window on the elephant. And the layered topiary is very clever!
ReplyDeleteLove your Layer shot, great interpretation. The elephants are super.
ReplyDeleteI love those elephants - we had a cow parade in Dublin a few years ago which I guess are something similar. The garden shot is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Birthday and Anniversary! I really enjoyed seeing all of the elephants - and the Abbey, beautiful matching gardens and the tiles!
ReplyDeleteLove those elephants - will look out for them this summer. Belated Anniversary and Birthday greetings to you, Gill. Hope you had some lovely times. xxx
