This hunt was listed as a mistake two and a half years ago. Halffast had listed this and I guess hit the submit button twice. In an effort to clear the database I am logging it. Who cares? Both of these were archived long ago.

Coming off Mariner’s Landing was this fine specimen sitting atop the restaurant. We did not dine there, however. :)

We had a wonderful evening on the Wildwood Boardwalk with our family and friends of ours. These are my old stomping grounds. Oh, the stories I could tell.

When it was decided we were coming here two scavenger hunts leaped out at me so I made certain I brought my GPS. The camera was a given. This was a bonus. :)

After Gert and Jennifer went upside down on The Great Nor’easter rollercoaster, we walked down and spotted this ride. And just how did the car get there?

Dude, where’s my car?

This hunt has been interesting for me. Over the last two years I have photographed any number of camouflaged vehicles, but each was an oddity. A couple fishing boats, a dune buggy, a go kart. Each time I went to log it I saw that these oddball vehicles were not what was sought. Yeah, I have a poor memory. :)

As Fritz and I drove along Rt. 77 we passed this truck. We circled around to get the requisite photographs.

Thanks for the hunt.

Old Burgler Alarms

When this was first posted I did some research. It seems like some photographers are fond of photographing these things. I found a few to go seek a few states over. The family piled into the truckster and headed off. On the way we passed through Woodstown, NJ. We stopped at the light in the center of town. I looked to my left and there it was. I didn’t need to travel to where we were headed, there was a burglar alarm on a bank close to home! Sure, it was on the other side of the street. Heck, I make it here plenty so there was no hurry.

Well, Fritz and I took a drive today and went to The Bank. Here is the burglar alarm. Below it is the night depository. Who would have thunk it? Why would you label the alarm like this? Oh well . . .

Thanks for the hunt!

I’ve been driving by this for decades. I kept saying to myself that it would be good to use for something. Then along came this hunt. Perfect.

This extremely large rocking chair is outside Chard’s furniture store in Woodstown, NJ.
