Scavenger Photo Hunt, August đŸ“· - added

No way, it's already the end of August and time for Katie's I live, I love, I craft, I am me ... scavenger photo hunt this month!

The words for August are...

Added - Arm 
Apparently I wrote arch instead of arm on my checklist for photos, oops! So here's my arm - the armrest that Addie uses to sit and gaze at the Peke figurines and the photo of Miss Tenny.


Mark
The Gmen made their mark their senior year of high school with the football team. And now they're seniors in college!


Straw
Obviously this isn't actually straw, but it looks like it! It was good with the shrimp, nice and crunchy.
This was from our adventure in the Wonderland restaurant on our cruise last month, the theme is Alice in Wonderland.


Arch
We saw this on our hike last weekend, a natural arch we went under.


Duck
Or rather, ducks in a race! This was taken in July 2004, when we were visiting family in Ohio. 


Window
Another old one, from the 80's! This is looking out the window of Ducksberry (alas, no real ducks). This unique home is on the coast of Devon, near Hartland, GB. We rented it twice while I was growing up, what an experience! This home had no electricity and you had to pump for water, luckily in the kitchen. Absolutely beautiful views and quite the walk to the beach.


My Own Choice
Now back to 2019, where I'm putting in a few last stitches to finish this. I have an idea in mind, but I need to find the right frame for it.


Have fun seeing everyone else's posts and see you next month!

Your duck race ducks made me laugh - SOoooooo many of them! What really tickled me were the sunnies they are wearing :D
Love the arch too - the natural ones are the best :)

That LHN pumpkin design has always been a fave of mine, I should just drop the hammer (order) on it! Those are some nice looking sons you have there! Seniors on college already, wow. I started reading your blog when they were still in high school! Time sure flies.

Love the ducks - are they about to start their race or have they be caught at the end? The Sunnies are terrific too.

I thought I'd commented on this previously but obviously I didn't :( I love your photo of the arch, even if it was a mistake - it looks so beautifully green and peaceful there. My favourite though just has to be your added 'arm' - it has a cute dog on it :)
