Scavenging

Ian and I went to a birthday party this weekend for a friend we know from high school. We weren’t very close friends in high school, but our circles overlapped and we had fun catching up at our reunion last year. As it turns out, she and her roommate (also from high school) live only a couple miles from us, so it was a fun excursion for the evening.
They planned a photo scavenger hunt in Old Town. I think it was the first time doing one of these for everyone in the group and it was loads of fun. There was some joking, though I suspect people were mostly serious, that we weren’t to post these pictures on Facebook. So I’m posting just the one here with my friends cropped out. This fulfilled the “Do the bunnyhop with a stranger” task. Jack Sparrow thought we were nuts. ;)
Other items on the list included:
- Take a photo of one of your group on all fours with a dog.
- Take a photo of one of your group posing with a monument, historic marker, or historic artifact.
- Take a photo of one of your group posing with a street performer or costumed historic interpreter.
- Take a photo of one of your group posing as a sculpture or performance art spelling out a word with their bodies. (This one included a visit to the local Old Town sex shop.)
We ended up finishing much earlier than expected, but that just meant we had time for ice cream before taking the Trolley back to the metro. We went back to the regular part of the party after that and looked through both groups’ pictures. The birthday girl was judge and chose the winning team. I have to commend her for her impartiality. She chose our team for the win, even though she was on the other team. Extra points going to us for our bunnyhop video!
