I got distracted with what I thought was “Martini” thinking, “I didn’t know there was an element named for that!” lol

The balloon store didn’t mention helium.
The dentist didn’t advertise fluoride, and I realized it would have needed to be flourine anyway.
The dry cleaner had an icon of an iron, but didn’t spell out the word.
The metro bus maps stopped before silver spring.
But thankfully this meter says *silver* spring networks.

I had to go to the drug store anyway. Went looking for Coppertone. Found this first.

3/6/21 – Element Name: Silver

I had a whole list to look for, but because I got a late start, I went for the closest. The Silver Diner in Arlington.

Two! Count them, two! Fun elements here. I am choosing to submit “argon.” Found outside a physics building at the University of Maryland College Park.

Argon is a noble gas, and is the third-most abundant gas in the Earth’s atmosphere. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argon

3/7/21 – Cookie Selfie

March 7 marks the beginning of Girl Scout Week, so lets celebrate the cookie!

Fun fact: Thin Mints are the top-selling cookie, followed in descending sales order by Caramel deLites/Samoas, Peanut Butter Patties/Tagalongs, Do-Si-Dos/Peanut Butter Sandwiches, and Trefoils/Shortbread. What’s your favorite?

On your ride, take a selfie with a cookie that you bought during the ride (i.e., don’t bring it from home!) for 1 point. Also, let us know what kind of cookie it is. If it’s an official Girl Scout cookie, include the box in the pic for 2 points (total).

As an alternative, if you don’t want to go inside or buy a cookie, take a pic of a bakery where you’d buy a delicious cookie for yourself or a friend. This’ll net you a point.

Happy hunting!

On March 6, 1869, Dmitri Mendeleev presented the first periodic table of the elements to the Russian Chemical Society.

On your ride, find the name of one of the elements that is in the periodic table. (Only the whole name of the element, e.g., Livermorium, not LV: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements).

Happy hunting!

PS – Unlike the picture, we don’t want the word “Element“, we want a specific one listed in the periodic table

Element Name – Aluminum 3/6/21 Clinton, MD

Hot tip, members of my daughter’s Girl Scout troop are scheduled to sell cookies today outside Saxby’s Coffee, 3500 O St NW, 1-3:00pm. Or if you’re craving cookies but can’t make the same, for another week you can buy from her online at https://www.gsdigitalcookie.com/Cookie/ enter code mkeen2hr and get delivery. Maybe not photo contest point worthy, but you get a brownie point!

You may find this Girl-Scout-Cookie-Finder-Near-You tool helpful to get a 2-point selfie, granted that you know your zip code;-)

Cookie [emoji514] on!
