Participant#scavhunt – 1/18 – Seems like it’s rather SILLY the way crosswalks and bike lanes get cleared and then building/home owners dump snow back in them. The photo is on King St in Alexandria. Eads St and Crystal Dr in National Landing were particularly bad, but I didn’t stop for a photo

Albert Einstein said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.”
Might sound silly, but true. You need to always progress to keep a steady balance in life.

We used these blue trail markers along the W&OD to practice numbers when the passenger was smaller, and he noticed something silly – there’s no number 1 anywhere to be found.

My other photos were political, but for now I’ll play it safe with Barbie hot springs Christmas party.

Participant1/18/25 – silly
People used to drive these big cars around all the time. Now most ppl think it’s SILLY to drive gas guzzlers like this.

Participant1/18/2025 SILLY – I love the silly roosters around Takoma Park. Here’s a fine example, festooned with fake flowers

Participant1/19/2025 ROWER
The Potomac is a popular place for rowers in the warmer months. But unlike us, rowers tend to get their exercise indoors at this time of year. I suspect the rower who owns that middle boat (the only one that’s a rowboat instead of a motor boat) won’t be back for it any time soon.

ParticipantMy first thought too, Indiana! I wish I could post my edited photo, but I got it in slightly over the wire as is.
Nadine: Sadly, everyone now drives around silly, gas guzzling SUVs and pickup trucks 😞

ParticipantSo, you got yours from Wordle, Carol?
We were probably out around the same time. I was all over the SE and stadium area 🏟️

ParticipantResults for the week ending 1/18/2025:
1/12 TOTAL
Serdar – this Starbucks photo is so well composed – using the faces on the bags to frame the total. Of course, knowing Serdar had to ride an extra 10 miles to work off that Banana Nut Loaf made us smile too.Indiana – wow, talk about completely and totally capturing the concept. This was thoughtfully and artistically captured.
1/13 CLOAK
Indiana – who can resist a capture of Venus by a priest wearing a cloak?1/14 FANCY
DCAKen – The illustration on this sign and the way it just hangs up there in the dark made us smile.1/15 KNACK
Fernando Gracia – You had our sympathy and our vote as you captured, what for cyclists, is all too often our option.1/16 FLINT
CaseyKane50 – Yabba Dabba Do!Serdar – nicely composed line-up photo and extra points for taking your bike in the store (with permission)
1/17 PROSE
Sszibler – others took photos of book stores – this one was beautifully composedConsularrider – we felt like we were with you at the LFL, examining the titles for a treasure.
1/18 SILLY
Cvcalhoun – the pig is whimsical and sweetFiona Grant – cock-a-doodle-doo!
—————————-
This is definitely anyone’s game. Everyone’s approach is slightly different, even when you end up at the same location! Thank you for continuing to get out there.

ParticipantYeah, @sszibler, a guy I’m dating and I now play Wordle and text each other to exchange our scores just after midnight. So I can get an early start on the scavenger hunt when I want to. (Although really, anyone can; there is a link on the first page of this thread to where you can find the day’s Wordle if you don’t actually play.) I did, however, edit the post to change the photo after I got home and was able to see the photos on my computer rather than the tiny versions on my phone.

Within this building young people begin learning what it takes to become a good rower.
