Lady Rainicorn!


Lauren and I were recently at Unique LA's Craft fair. Erin came with us and we had an Adventurous Time (ALTERNATE). We saw this wall rainbow of flasks and instantly got it because we do not get many rainbows in LA. Rainicorns on the other hand.

At the Bus Stop


Team Fresno
Team Member: Chris B.
Location: East Hollywood, Ca (outside Paty's Diner)

Chris and his friend Nick went down to L.A. today to meet with Zachery Ty Bryan (of Home Improvement fame) about selling a movie that Nick directed and produced, and to try to get him to act in one of his upcoming movies. While they were on their way Chris spotted this bus stop with a Cowboy's v. Aliens movie ad...you can barely see it with the glare and reflection of the other vehicles, but if you make it bigger I promise its there. We don't have bus stops with any type of advertisement on them in Fresno, so we definitely had to go out of the area for this one :)

Nobody Home

Our team already has a black bear picture, but we thought we would check the local bear cave to see if we could get one up close and personal.

Nobody was home, so after waiting a while we gave up and went home. (This cave really did have a bear when it was part of the long-gone Spokane Valley Zoo.)

In the Pink

Little Pink House on the Prairie
Well, not exactly a prairie any longer, but it once was. We've been near this house many times, but just recently spotted it. It's on Broadway in The City of Spokane Valley. For those of you in California, you could probably pick this little gem up for $125,000, but the lot is only about 1/4 acre. ;-)

As you can see, Marcia was there for Team Spokane

I saw the Sign...


team: Young
team member: Mark
location: along hiway 41

We saw this cool sign on our way into the park Saturday morning, but there is NO SAFE place to pull over. We continued on to Yosemite... Glacier Point and the Valley, sure we would find more cool Yosemite signs.  Not happening, I am amazed at the lack of signage there.  So, we planned to get our photo on the way back home, we risked life and limb to get this. (J/K)

Come Together


Team Fresno
Team Member: Dana
Location: Courthouse Park, Fresno

Dana has driven and walked by this statue in Courthouse Park many many times and never noticed it. The back drop of this picture is the Fresno County Courthouse. There are 22 statues or monuments in Courthouse Park, but only 2 have 2 or more people in them. The second is a statue of Hmong Warriors on the other side of the courthouse.

I Got a Brand New Bear-Friend


Team Fresno
Team Member Dana
Location: Oakhurst, Ca

On the way back from Yosemite we had to drive through Oakhurst, this bear was at one of their little shopping centers...Mark from Team Young was forced to turn around to get this picture. Next to this bear there was also a mountain lion. Team Young tried to get their bear, as there were many in Oakhurst however they were all brown :/
