Photo Scavenger Hunt

Time again for another photo scavenger hunt - and this one should be oh-so-easy! So much so that I'm not even going to give a single little clue! First one to guess (contributing authors not eligible) wins a really bad movie on a really bad dvd!



And congratulations to CHB who won the last search. Since he/she never came forward to claim the prize, we'll just have to keep it in the prize cache! The location, by the way, was the creek that's mostly dry when you go across the little bridge on Fergus Road (heading toward Lake Forest, it's on the right).

Photo Scavenger Hunt

Okay, so no one guessed the last photo (although some of the contributing authors KNEW) so no one wins. I'll save it again for another day. So we have a new picture and this time, we have REAL PRIZES! I know you don't believe me from my post immediately before this one, but I'm serious. No, really I am. Prizes!

Whoever is the first to guess where the following photo was taken wins a DVD movie. I won't vouch for whether it's a GOOD movie, but you'll win anyway! Here's the photo (again this one shouldn't be too hard!).



Now I just know you know where this is, La Vergne! Come on! Don't be shy!

Don't Forget the Scavenger Hunt

Don't forget our new feature - the photo scavenger hunt! We've had a couple of good guesses, but they were unfortunately not correct. (Nice try!) I know Chip knows where it is, but since he's an author on this site, he's ineligible (we don't want to be accused of being unfair) (and that means our own sweet Ginger is also ineligible ... :::weeping:::). But YOU can guess!

Give it a try here!

Come on La Vergne... you know you want to!

LaVergne's Own Photo Scavenger Hunt

A friend of this site who lives in Nashville features a photo scavenger hunt weekly on his site. Because imitation is the highest form of flattery and because this site is often accused of being negative*, I'm starting our own LaVergne Photo Scavenger Hunt!

This first picture (photo credit to Bad Bad Ivy) should be pretty easy. It was taken last June 2006 after a storm with high winds came whipping through town.



The first person to comment accurately where this picture was taken (contributing authors not eligible) wins! What do you win, you wonder? Your choice of two things:
  1. A one-time column on this blog sharing what you enjoy about LaVergne, what your concerns for the city are, why you moved here, anything you'd like. If your column is well-written, then you could be invited to be a contributing author as well!
  2. A feature story about you for a project I'm working on called "Earned Wrinkles." It's a work in progress, but you can read some of the "wrinkle" stories here.
Sorry, no money or prizes that you can actually touch (you could touch the computer screen or print out what is written). If you really wanted, though, I could give you a pad of my Realtor notepad I send to people. Woot! But seriously, join in the fun!


*Seems that most of the negative comments come from just one person ...
