I love the hinge!

And look at those cool coins. I had a six pence in my shoe when I got married for luck...didn't work. I woke up the next day and HE was still there. 

Shari, love those flags.

This is so much fun, Ive just dragged myself out of my bed Sunday morning 7.00am.  Ive gone through the whole thread laughing all the way at the humor lol. 
Congrats to you all,  I can distinctly remember seeing the snails on an apple ! 

gorgeous Teddies Carin,    elephant butts cracked me up Jeff,  the Prison fencing was a little more serious Piet,  I could go on they are all excellent. 
I'll be looking for something to enter!

Alan...


busi2ness ( ) posted Sun, 10 August 2008 at 5:42 AM

Elizabeth and Arthur: Smashing stuff! I am glad you joined in the fun. I see Shari has launched her ultimate, her lovely daughter. Ok, now this has gone far enough. I did not know we were allowed to play dirty. I am off to the bush in search of anything and if I can not find anything on the hoof, I will certainly look on the bush floor! LOL

Before I go though, I challenged a cow girl, to join us but I bet she won't even show up!

It seems we are stuck on maybe 3 entries per person as we had no official go ahead to upload more. Ronnie we will have to wait and see.

The 3rd in the series of 3's - it rhymes on paper!

Alan, no the devil fork fence is not that serious, it serves humanity because it keeps people like me off the streets, LOL

In the meantime I am off to make my final attempt...

Piet Vermeulen, South Africa


G_Mansco ( ) posted Sun, 10 August 2008 at 6:20 AM

Thanks to all for your "Welcome", it's real fun and  it seems I only see 3's now, he he he!
Love those elephants Jeff, and the one of the fries is really fantastic Shari. I really couldn't choose one! I only know that it's great to have fun with all of you, smashing friends ;O)
Have a nice day, Elizabeth.


PD154 ( ) posted Sun, 10 August 2008 at 7:28 AM

This is all going so well friends :)
Some great entries, Oh well Piet, rules are rules I supose, I am a stickler for them:)
Anyhow there is nothing stopping one of us from starting a thread for maybe fours or fives LOL

This has IMHO, been the best thread going, alongside James's Instant recall thread
I was so woefully ignorant of the forums up until a while back, but I love them now :)

Have a blessed Sunday friends

Waiting on the Cowgirl now .. i'll bet she'll post 3 cows :laugh:  !!   :-)

Oh my - you guys are doing great and it is so much fun!!!

ALL the entries are just so great.... I agree with Alan - it is a laugh paging through it all....

PJ - I'm not quite dressing up the teddies anymore. They are currently on Bruce's side of the bed - so I better find another spot for them... Unless of course he wants to dress them up... lol.
With just a mere 25 days to go, I better make a plan.

Shari - love the fries and those flags are stunning.
Ronnie - you crack me up.
Helle - awesome shots.
Piet - you know what I yhink about your daisies...

Here is my second attempt. Three red wine glasses, with three skies reflected in them as well as three of my houses and three of me... A perfect threesome... or something like that...

See ya all again soon...
Hugs

Great idea with the gas prices Shari, If I posted ours though you would have heart attacks.

It has dropped a few pence though, it is now £1.10 per litre, about ten dollars a gallon.


MrsLubner ( ) posted Sun, 10 August 2008 at 1:34 PM

Holy Cow, Batman! $10 a gallon? I can buy a gallon of wine cheaper than that...sure, it might taste a lot like gas at that price but that's not the point!

Carin, I am enthalled by your glasses! That is wonderful. So you were hanging back to make a dramatic entrance into the Challenge, huh?

Those nesting dolls are so sweet. I don't know how to get the flash glare out either.

Leave it to Tennessee to come up with 3 barns in one shot. Only she can do that. :-)

Kathleen - very creative, right under one's nose!

Carin - I love the selective coloring.

Santa - no I don't need to help you! LOL That's great stuff, those dolls.

Lynell - I am so happy you have uploaded, fantastic! Now, I bet we have seen the last of you and the challenge is over for you? LOL :D

Here is my 3rd entry and also a tribute to the many people having a passion for giraffe, reminding me often to upload.

Piet, the softness of the grass so well matches the subjects. How you managed to find these three like this, I don't know but this is really an awesome shot. So beautiful.

I saw these last weekend and knew they were perfect for this challenge! I'm just glad the sky was blue, we've had lots of fires all over California and it's been smoky most of the summer.
