Ten Things - Scavenger Hunt

 #14 A person playing with a ball - Phil loops it so high, it goes right out of the picture
 There it is!

#6 A historical landmark.  How about our nation's capitol?  Apartment hunting in D.C. may have been a bust , but it was great for getting Scavenger Hunt photos.
#21 A picture of you standing with something that symbolizes your nation.  Me in front of the Washington Monument.  Walking in D.C. when it is 100+ degrees out is very tiring!
The girls in front of the White House - with a bunch of bus tour crowds.
#4 A roadside stand selling something.  Here we have a block worth of roadside stands selling D.C. souvenirs and ice cold drinks across from the United States Department of Commerce building.
#3 A border. There is the wire fence border surrounding the grass, and the border along the edge of the sidewalk.

#9. A fountain. On the White House lawn. While technically this counts, I'm not really impressed with this fountain. I'll be on the lookout for a better one!

Hooking up with Shimelle's Ten Things.

  13. Fantastic photos, but I agree that fountain is a bit of a let down when it has the famous landmark behind it! I love the ball playing photos. x

  17. I love D.C. and wish I could use a photo for historical landmark. I haven't figured that out yet. And you and the Washington Monument---brilliant! That's another hard one I'll be happy to cross off. Great job!

  18. Such great photos! I have to say, I thought a building as majestic as the White House would have a stately looking fountain.

  21. Wonderful group of photographs and you have cleverly hooked them up to 10 on the Tenth. It is great to see some Stateside photographs, especially Washington DC which I visited back in the 1980's. Such amazing buildings. I love your idea for No 3, a border.

  25. Isn't it funny how we know we can do better on an item we have found so we keep on looking for the same thing again!

Leaving me some love makes me pathetically happy, sometimes even giddy. So go ahead, make my day!
