2024 Photo Scavenger Hunt – Rules and Alternate Words

3/19/24

Thanks Kelley and Serdar for a great game.

Thanks to my awesome competitors for keeping it interesting and challenging.

The Dude ABIDEs.

And today, after 76 of 78 days, and 1003 miles, my bikes ABIDE. 😀

@Aaron bikes nice idea. This is the first photo scavenger hunt where it’s possible to continue the game after FS is over. I hadn’t appreciated that before!

I think some people might do it actually…. I don’t play wordle but  I bet I could get a friend or 2 to help me put with the daily word. I wonder, could we do that here? Or maybe on Strava & all follow each other 🤔🤷🏻

@nadine, sounds like a wonderful idea!  One of the issues I have is finding places to go outside of Freezing Saddles, since I want to bike every day all year, but it gets boring without a destination.  I’ve used the previous year’s scavenger hunt (back when there were specific objects to find) or the previous year’s bingo list, but that gets repetitive after a while.  I’d love to have something ongoing–and something with others playing, which tends to give me more motivation.  Shall I set up a thread for it?  Even if it were just the two of us playing, it would help–but I bet others would join.

As for not playing Wordle, I don’t either. But the answer can always be found at https://tryhardguides.com/wordle-answers/

@cvcalhoun yes! And thanks for the wordle link. It’s so helpful how you seem to know how stuff works – or how to figure it out 😁

Ima hafta start on Tuesday though – at least by bike.

I’m going outta town tomorrow am through Monday night. It’s a HS reunion, but since they made it in Orlando, and everything about Orlando seems to be crazy pricey, and I’m not gainfully employed, I’m driving down & camping on the way, & again on the way back. That’s why I’ll be gone so long for a 2 day reunion. Not bringing the bike…. Walking & hiking will be good for my bone density anyhow, which probably suffers during FS.

I can see if I can get others interested in  playing too. And I could probably play some while I’m away without the bike if it helps you – this is no prize time, after all

I’ve been riding most days (and have even noted the Wordle words on my Strava, although only after midnight to avoid spoilers), but figured I’d wait to post until @Nadine came back.

3/26/24 MAYOR

Rockville City Hall is where the mayor’s office is. I did try to explain to the one in the trailer (foster dog) that a) he is not the mayor, and thus not the boss of me, and b) he was brought from home and thus ineligible anyway. But he just barked at me.

😆 good luck with that @Cvcalhoun…. Pretty sure your foster dog knows thinks he is the boss of you…..
