    @laurie-e:  Or they use traffic cones to reserve parking spots.  Which always pisses me off.  We talk about drivers who think they own the road.  But this is an example of them literally claiming a spot of the road so no one else can use it.

    February 21 – Traffic cone. Take a pic of one of those heavy traffic cones (typically orange). Sorry, a little sport cone from a soccer field (or similar) or a traffic barrel doesn’t count.

    February 19 – Mosque.  Can be a photo of either the building or the sign, but you must identify the building if there is no name shown.

    February 18 – Analog clock.  Photograph an analog clock (real one) on your ride. Can’t be a watch (yours or anyone you find).

    Someone brought me my computer, and I believe I have caught up on all the entries since my accident.  However, given that I went from concussion to oxycodone, I may have missed something.  You can check here to make sure yours were captured, and let me know if they were not.

    Okay, folks, let the record show that I will take any domestic bovine for “cow.”  I don’t care whether it is technically a cow, bull, steer, calf, or heifer.  I’m not planning to milk it anyway.  😀

    Thanks, @bikingjenn, @srfrjulie, @karenbikes2gmail-com, @indiana, and @nadine! I’m not in pain at this point, unless I try to put weight on the broken leg. But I’m frustrated by my inability to continue in Freezing Saddles, and by my general helplessness.

    Which ones are you having trouble with, @bigredboiler? I may be able to come up with some locally available options.

    The other thing to consider is getting a new card for the third round. You can keep generating cards until you get one that doesn’t have any unobtainable items.

    Sad to say, I’m out of this one. Due to a broken leg, I can’t bike to find public art. And due to having had to switch my status to “Friend,” I’m not eligible anyway. But I’ll look forward to seeing what everyone else does. And if this competition happens again next year, I’ll be back.

    @karenbikes2gmail-com, you could have put the freestanding garage back. I’d believe you that it was one. After all, this whole game is on the honor system; if you really wanted to cheat, you could drive over and take pictures of everything on your card, then save them until the item was called.

    February 17 – Car (orange). Must be an actual car, not for example a commercial van.

    By the way, I may be a little slow updating the spreadsheet with what people have found, because the broken leg is currently keeping me from getting to my computer. But I will catch up. In the interim, I’ll continue to announce the day’s item. And if you get Bingo, do announce it
