SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY 3.18.12

first of the season ~ Okui's strawberries
It's SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY... I missed last week & was determined not to miss another week! There are over 100 participants, so check in with ASHLEY @ RAMBLINGS & PHOTOS for the links to all who captured this week's words in photos!
Here are my photos for:
VINTAGE, WORD or QUOTE, NATURE'S OWNPEOPLEPHOTOGRAPHER'S CHOICE

VINTAGE
I don't know if this qualifies as being VINTAGE?? but this music box belonged to my ex-husband's grandmother, Nellie. Since I am the keeper of the "important stuff" I still have this music box in my possession! I'm not sure who gifted Grandma Nellie with this box, but it has a sticker on the bottom saying it was Swiss-made. The music is theme from Doctor Zhivago (or Lara's theme).

WORD or QUOTE
It's getting closer to Spring Break (first part of April) & I'm looking forward to taking a break from the "busy-ness" of work... I've never had a work-related project fall apart from lack of attention or planning! So, I'm posting this QUOTE in my car... at my work station... and on the refrigerator, so I can see it every time I think I'm too busy to relax!



NATURE'S OWN
JPE stopped by Okui's Strawberry Stand in Grover Beach... the first strawberries of the season are HUGE ~ compare the size to the US quarter! And, oh! my! are they juicy! NATURE'S OWN sweetness!

PEOPLE
This photo was pulled from my archives! My niece, Jodi, is traveling to London (her husband has a training to attend)... so, hopefully, this photo will entice her to begin making a list of things she wants to see... I come from a family of "people-watchers"... she's sure to get a "kick" out of all the PEOPLE driving along Trafalgar Square in London!

PHOTOGRAPHER'S CHOICE
Monarch Grove in Pismo Beach is a site for the deep orange-red Monarch butterflies to winter. From November to February, docents share information & answer questions about these delicate creatures. During school hours, it's not uncommon to see several busloads of children visiting Monarch Grove. If you stop for a visit, take a walk down to the beach (walk over the bridge & turn left following the nature pathway to the edge of the sand dunes). 

So, that's my post for this week's SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY! Words for next week are: WHIMSY, CREATE, DUST, SEED or SPROUT, & SWING or DROP.

See you tomorrow!
