ok, what about an old fashioned non-motorised in any way lawn mower.
"Scavenger hunt" to me means looking for not necessarily every day items, so I hope this one is not too difficult.

If Bailey is good with this, i.e. the lawn mower was posted but not the poached eggs ... here are two old threshing machines ... they are in the back to the right as they were not the main target. Summerview, Alberta, July 2018. (There are two threshers at the town museum about 4 minutes away...too lazy to go there tonight.) If this photo is good with Bailey and Wayne .. then how about a basket or display of fruit (peaches, apples, plums...whatever) at a farmers' market?

Thank you Wayne Something like your photo is exactly what I was looking for. If Bailey is good with this, i.e. the lawn mower was posted but not the poached eggs ... It's all good Clive. As I mentioned in my previous post, the poached eggs was an additional option to help kick start this thread again. It clearly wasn't a mandatory item. I hope this clarifies your concern.
So we're now looking for Clive's "basket or display of fruit (peaches, apples, plums...whatever) at a farmers' market".

Clive - not exactly a bowl of mixed fruit ... strawberry picking at a farmer's field ...

Works for me Peter. Indeed, there are baskets of strawberries in the right. Perfect.
What is your pleasure to see next?

Let's have an action shot of a wheeled vehicle race - perhaps the Indy or Daytone - or just some dirt bikes.

Finally ... busy all day. Coaldale Kinsmen Demolition Derby, June 2013. It was a crazy event but they made about $25,000 annually for community projects. Don't think they do it anymore. On a gentler note, how about a baby carriage (pram) ... aka baby buggy or stroller.

My dinner this evening. We have poach eggs for dinner about every two weeks. Rounded off with salad (and parmesan petals) and dessert of mango, orange, ginger and chocolate...always some dark chocolate. The eggs are poached in "tea" in shallow pan. The tea has S&P plus dried italian herbs...looks sort of gross when cooking but the eggs are lovely. Photographed with a flash in a soft box bounced off the high white ceiling. Okay something easy: a best selling novel. Any decade.

out the living room window a couple of years ago. Mom taught them there are yummies in the garden. i.ibb.co/PDdn7jM/DSC-0699.jpgHow about some apples?

Will you settle for an apple monument - Winchester, VA - home of White House Foods - self proclaimed apple capital of the US
I'd like to see a kite festival.

Lots or kites soaring in this sky in this picture which was taken at the Festival of the Winds on Bondi Beach. My request will be somewhat unusual, I would like to see an image in which a texture has been added or blended into it in some way. Failing that then a picture of a waterfall would be wonderful.
