World Scavenger Hunt

Find happiness in a not so happy situation:

2009-12-02T19:56:00.000-08:00

A happy face water tower backdropping a park pavilion and rainbow colored playground?!? What do you mean find happiness in a NOT SO HAPPY situation? What could be happier than a happy TOWER?!

Let me explain- - - >

As you all know, I should have been really freakin' on top of World Scavenger Hunt, as I was traveling the entire country, a new town on a weekly basis, seeing all kinds of crazy shit along the way. Who was with me the entire journey? Blanche. Blanche is the Autumn Teneyl company vehicle who was misunderstood, in my opinion. Most anyone who rode with her feared for their life or simply became disgruntled by the awkward situation of the passenger side: no window option, inadequate legroom, and front row seat to the Meghann's ramblings about how Blanche won't: turn, stop, speed up or start.

So, why was this day that I met the happy face tower in Ashley, Indiana a not so happy day? Well, the day I met the happy face tower was the day of Blanche's death. She passed gracefully along 69 North, about 2.1 miles south of Ashley, Indiana, who proudly announces on a modest-sized street sign that they birthed the Smiley Face.

Imagine the irony of this situation: my road companion Andy and I are traveling approximately 12 miles an hour on the shoulder of a 65 MPH highway, stopping to turn off the engine every 2 minutes to just get Blanche to move, and as we pull into the first town for a car doctor, the very first thing we see is a sign stating "Welcome to Ashley Indiana, Home of the Smiley Face." Just ahead peaks the cadmium yellow water tower, decked out in a symmetrical bi-triangle black bow tie.

I think that is exactly the place Blanche would've chosen to be buried.

Blanche after the autopsy

Trying to pretend it's all okay . . .

What Blanche would've wanted her gravestone to say... 303 MLF. 303 is the area code for Boulder, Colorado and there sure are lots of Milfs there. . . everyone always thought that's what her plates said from far away.

Her replacement from upstate Michigan. Certainly did not have as much of a personality as Blanche . . .

R.I.P Blanche.

Feigning perception.

2009-12-02T19:50:00.001-08:00

I am pretty sure that this guy ( girl? who knows! ) has long forgotten he has a tail, as he probably has also long forgotten he is a dog. I loved that he smiled at me as though he could actually see me. Feigning perception. Imagine living your life like that - where you heard someone come up to you, ask you a question and you do have the sense of sight, but you just have to face the direction of the voice and smile. I bet It-looking-hippies do it all the time.

Unfortunately, the woman who was with this dog had to do the exact same with me - nod and smile. She had no idea what I was saying because she didn't speak a lick of English. Or at least that is what I assume, as when I asked her do you speak English she just nodded and smiled. Living in San Francisco, America, I would imagine you'd at least learn that phrase. I feel just as silly not knowing a lick of Spanish and living in America. I spelled La Jolla 'La Hoya' yesterday. Live and learn, I suppose.

My Rainbow. What's your rainbow?

2009-12-02T19:35:00.000-08:00

Chelsea, you reignited what W.S.H. is supposed to be about: creativity. Thank you - I know I will attempt to be as on top of this world as possible for the next few weeks.

I decided I wasn't going to wait around to see a rainbow in the sky, especially not on such a significant day of defeat for the dispersive circumstance of light - NYS Senate did not pass the Equal Rights Marriage Bill and I am pissed. Maybe I am just too hopeful or naïve, but I thought for sure it would get passed. Makes no sense to me that in a country of liberty and justice for all, two people in love can't legally display it.

Here is my rainbow. I made it out of all the things going on in my life right now.

Red: packaging tape. I have been traveling from city to city, packaging up boxes, lots and lots of boxes.
Orange: Love Chocolate. I miss Brian and eat chocolate because it reminds me of him.
Yellow: A bracelet that says EVOLVE. A man at Burning Man gifted it to me. It symbolized the 'Pay it Forward' mentality. Anytime I saw someone with a similar bracelet on, I was supposed to, no questions asked, give them something. I think that mentality would be well-suited to translate into the regular world, even without bracelets.
Green: The book I am reading right now and have been reading since the last second I stepped out of NYC in May.
Blue: A map of Chicago that Brian gave to me. I am in Chicago.
Purple: an Autumn Teneyl dress! 'Cause that's my world lately ;)

Okay, onward with this hunt. I love playing this game with you guys. It keeps me connected. I miss you. Have I told you that lately?

Find an animal who forgets they have a tail...

Children playing with a statue

2009-11-11T15:06:00.000-08:00

This picture was taken in Bern, Switzerland.

At one point the little girl was holding the face and talking intimately with him while the boy was falling around the arm. I thought it was beautiful.

Their adults were picnicking by the water.

Happy Children on a Statue.

a happy statue!

2009-11-10T08:09:00.000-08:00

CHILDREN PLAYING & REACHING UP TO THE SKY LIKE THEY CONQUERED THE WORLD . . . what could be happier?

THE ASPENS HAVE EYES!

2009-11-10T08:05:00.000-08:00

Yo! Tree! Nice eyes-

Tiley Tables!

Secret rooms in Syracuse bars have special tiley tables!

Images in the Tiles

2009-10-14T15:19:00.001-07:00

Alright, I know everyone out there has seen tile art. Snap a photo of your favorite local tile art and post it. Let's get this gig going again. We need to make this fun again.

i found an injured pup!

2009-10-14T15:10:00.000-07:00

Very difficult to find an injured animal, chase it down and speak to the owner and convince him to let me take a picture, while staying sensitive to the fact that his poor pet has a broken bone.

This here pup is from San Franscisco. His name is Albert. The owner was from Holland.

Let's get back on track!

Aww... a puppy

2009-05-27T12:57:00.001-07:00

Let's keep the animal-like theme for now. For some reason there have been an abundance of dogs with casts on here in Boulder, Colorado lately. So find an animal or person or your own interpretation of this adorable casted little puppy.

People monkeys. Or Spider monkeys. In trees.

2009-05-27T12:42:00.000-07:00

I couldn't decide which picture to use. So here is a picture from Hawai'i in a tree pretending to be a monkey.But then here is a picture of a spider monkey hanging from it's tail in Mexico.... See him?

Get to the top

2009-05-15T09:08:00.000-07:00

With this one I am imagining someone photographing a monkey in a tree; climbing a tree and acting like a primate; finding a photo of oneself climbing trees as a child; finding this exact tree and replicating this pose.

Climb around the world.

Oversized for Brooklyn

2009-05-15T09:03:00.000-07:00

Slippery slug I stumbled across in Tina's backyard in Brooklyn. Yes, I hung out with it for a little while; while everyone ate ribs inside, I was protecting this little bugger from getting stepped on. Slugs are cute.

2009-02-12T11:54:00.000-08:00

I've been to a few places in my life. I know every town has their own something of a mutant snail sculpture. There were four in just this playground here on Pearl Street. Find your favorite.

Diaphanous Maximus

2009-02-12T11:46:00.000-08:00

This particular place would not allow pictures of their foyer, so we explained how long we had searched, how desperately we sought out the PERFECT chandelier, and why we needed this photograph immediately. The non-lobby guard guy said "Cool, just do it quick and don't let the manager see."

So here it is. And to be honest, Andy's Chandelier was a better chandelier. Tim and I aren't even sure if ours isn't just a "light fixture." But, we wanted to get this place rolling again!!! Scavenger hunt is re-igniting itself!

Come on baby light my fire! Woohoo!

2009-02-08T18:24:00.000-08:00

Ahoj!

Couldn't find a condom machine anywhere! I did, however, find an equally righteous chandelier in a filmhauzen!

That is me. Having fun in Mexico.

2008-04-15T20:36:00.000-07:00

okay so let's make this easy again, then build back up to the expert levels of things. i'll say this challenge is to simply have fun. paint your face or something. funny hats? check. rayguns? check. plastic swords? check. let loose and make a mess. take a picture and share it with us!

p.s. the mustache is real.

2008-04-15T20:22:00.000-07:00

here's two pics of the pup.. he's my little man and i dont know what else to say other than my heart melts all the time. i wish all of you could see me with him, and jon too! we're both those annoying puppy dog voice people who pat him on the bum and tell him "good job!" when he squeezes out a little mini turd. Oh, little Rufus. Let's see what we can put up for next time...

here's the real daisy, in her younger years...

2008-04-01T20:05:00.000-07:00

only salamanders around here are dagny's playtoy friends . . .

i think i defeated the purpose of miss chelsea's post, therefore i leave this one open for another REAL wildlife amphibian...

Into the wild....

2008-03-31T19:44:00.000-07:00

I have been finding salamanders lately. It is fun. I think this is a leadback salamander but it might be a slimy salamander. I'm not 100% yet. I found it in Highland Park, NJ under a log.

Find an amphibian!!!!

Recycling/altering those packages

2008-03-31T19:34:00.000-07:00

So we wanted to make art but had no paper. We went to the recycling pile and opened the empty boxes of frozen pizzas, shoes boxes, envelopes, anything we could find to make art. Here is the result..... ALTERED PACKAGES!

2008-03-27T11:58:00.000-07:00

next mission is to find an altered something. i guess letter? package? something to deal with the postal service. this was an envelope left on a bar booth on south street, and i do believe that is some surely tasty dark brew that left its happy trails behind. not sure where this can go from here, but you guys are cool. do something. ready, set, COMMENCE THE SCAVENGING!

2008-03-27T11:55:00.000-07:00

so strange wall hangings, perverted mantle peice activities, same thing, eh? well, this is what i woke up to on new years day... a living room that had turned upside down and strangely enticing. clocks, paintings, and apparantly the snowpeople got excited too :) tis the season for lovemaking...

glad we got this rolling again. and i'm also glad someone responded to the pillow fight, that was gonna be tough

up for interpretation

2008-03-25T16:59:00.000-07:00

let's challenge our creative genes.

Nothing will one-up the Union Square Pillow Fight...

2008-03-24T14:55:00.001-07:00

but we're not here to one up!

Here's an event my friend Lily put on this summer in Boulder - bar hopping putt putt!!!

There were 9 different bars that participated by building unique mini-golf holes. You got a beer at each location and the final hole was at One Boulder Fitness, which I got a hole in one at . . . no big deal...

2008-03-24T08:44:00.000-07:00

People who walk on sidewalks a lot need to look at where they're going. For many reasons... dog poop, banana peels, puddles. Why not post some polite political propaganda there for people to ponder?

Enjoy.

2008-03-23T22:33:00.000-07:00

Post a photo of a personal indication to "stop and smell the roses" of life.

It's good for artists to be advocates for appreciation.

Art provides what life does not.

Bubbling swarming sluggish on the days that begin to warm up and adventures kids rip open logs out of boredom we find these guys and interrupt them their cold-bloodedness makes mobility tough in early spring. small alone they make a single beating organism together. i like ants.

Corn Porn

2008-01-27T22:43:00.000-08:00

Okay so my friend Hulie and I were going to make CornPorn.com until i went to TN and got lost in a corn maize (get it, maize - maze hahah - yea i know you did i just wanted to make myself giggle) anyway, i stumbled upon this moldy peice of... fruit? vegetable? grain. yes. precisely. find something that is still living but molding. or a choice or blend or you know. be creative, thats what we do best. love ya, mean it

Yup I ate it..

2008-01-22T15:28:00.000-08:00

this lil guy was found at the bottom of a cave by a girl with a dying headlamp who had consumed a few too many beers and spent more than enough time in the sun and busted her ass wayyy too many times wakeboarding and whose hunger was obviously not satiated by the ribeye cooked medium rare she ate for dinner.

Bon appetite!

2007-10-07T17:36:00.000-07:00

I don't know this kid but I got his picture. So I think you should get a picture of someone eating something out of the ordinary.

Believe only half of what you see

2007-10-07T17:33:00.000-07:00

My lens and I will play tricks on what you think is real.

Look at that beautiful Harvest Moon!

Use your eye and your lens to show the trickery photography can play on the viewer. I love that moon.

Now... our next picture (look how attentive I was to respond to the scavenger hunt! After soooo long) will be coming in the following post.

We are starting this up again. It was fun and it will continue to be fun. Jackie just bought a brand new camera and it's fall, so I'm guessing everyone's got pretty colored pictures to be posting.

Here's my response to Ali's from April:

2007-04-22T15:44:00.000-07:00

so... not so much an object as a friendly example of graffitiititi but it seems the last one had us all stumped, so i took it upon myself to stretch the mission and make it my own. well, my own in terms of accessible talent and creative eye. that, and a lack of camera-ography as of the late bicycle crash i had that took the life of my second camera this year. blah blah, got a new one in the mail, its better, badder, and even more prepared for my adventures, so lets not let this hunt die and continue on, shall we? whats next...?

Find an inanimate object that resembles an animal.

2007-03-26T16:18:00.000-07:00

2007-02-21T13:11:00.000-08:00

Of course I wasn't completely alone and this is still beyond hilarious to me. So let me enjoy it for a little longer. Here is your task my friends. Just take a picture of someone in a diaper. Make us laugh out loud!! I like laughing out loud! I like laughing so hard I start dry heaving and my stomach muscles ache. Can you do that with this assignment? I hope so!

We never realize until it is too late

2007-02-09T18:26:00.000-08:00

I did not plan this or anything. I set myself completely outside of this. But I hate to say it. I think I might be the local crazy woman... This is what I did last night. I dressed as a super hero in an adult diaper and ran around my house and outside a little even though it is cold. It was entertaining to me. But to the rest of the world, I see. I am their local crazy woman. I'm sorry. I understand if you stop talking to me.

and the next task is... (drumroll please)

2007-02-09T14:35:00.000-08:00

There was no better time. Let's reflect on the past, when we were all together or closer to together and were willing to put ourselves out for the good of society. (or for a buck, in Tina's case ;) )

Take a picture of you helpin out a stranger, yo.

Silhouettes and shadows

What's the difference between a shadow cast and a shadow mass?

2007-01-29T09:55:00.000-08:00

i find this picture so peaceful. that's probably because that billion pound pack isnt still on my back, and jackie isnt holding down the puke that comes up when she tries to talk, and steph isnt still drunk, and lindsey isnt on an endless search for cough drops and random cravings of bananas - but hey, this picture reminds me of the greatness in all of that. wouldnt trade it for the world...

ok so i decided to stick with the GROSS theme... this is my teammate's foot after our tournament in florida this weekend, 6 games and a few bottles of jager later, we get in the van to unleash feet that smell like butt, butts that smell like old cheetos, and aches and pains unknown to the average human. we kick so much ass... but yea, its funky and gross, much like that toilet

2007-01-25T11:06:00.000-08:00

what happened?

yea, thats what we said when us lassies were like "oh, taped off bathroom? who does that? and what would you ever do such a thing for when i have to pee oh so badly?" well... this is precisely why bathrooms get taped off, my friends

i still have fun trying to decide what would cause such a situation ?

what time is it?

well... my friend, you think a honda sign is cool? i think so too, but being in the land of guinness was enough to make this girl the happiest in all the world, especially our 10 am backpacking hike to the bus station when we passed this wonderful wonderful building... everything i need in a country - beer battered ham sandwiches and a santa named Liam with an endless supply of my nectar :)

vintage honda in dublin

I know it's against the non-existant 'rules' we have for this thing, but I thought the added picture of the honda dealer would add to the post. So here it is, folks! HONDA CITY...HONDA WORLD!

Lesson Teaching Graffiti

So it is our first time in Dublin and we can't find Mount Joy Street. Our hostel was on this mysterious alley named Mount Joy Street. Apparently there was also a Mount Joy Square and a Mount Joy Prison. (Just down the block, woo!) Adding these factors into the reality that Dubliners are the absolute worst at giving directions ("oh, its about a ten minute walk. just take a right at the bottom of the basin and a left at the top of the town") What basin? That Spire spared us our misdirection towards the end of the trip, though. Anyways, back to the first day of the trip. Wandering and, finally admitting it, lost, we at last stumbled upon this wall -- OPEN YOUR EYES. With this inspiration, we finally saw the old school honda dealer (which was never open) and knew we were just around the corner from the comfort of our tiny hostel bunk-beds.
FIND THE GRAFFITI THAT TALKS TO YOUUU.

Blackbird in Boulder

2007-01-24T09:21:00.000-08:00

All my time in Ireland I was hoping to snag a close-up picture of a blackbird. Wasn't until I was back in the good ol US of A off the highway somewhere in between Boulder, Aspen and Steamboat Springs that I caught a blackbird chillin on a light post.

I wanted to put a magpie up. It's this bird in Ireland that brings you good luck if you talk to it. But man that thing didn't want a photoshoot. I knew it was a magpie because Steph is obsessed with birds. She knows all their calls, colors and walks. Bird-crazy roommates are cooool.

I love snails

Ominous Beauty

2006-12-26T17:02:00.001-08:00

Sometimes i find that the most beautiful things in life, be it a sunset, mountain range or waterfall, can also evoke feelings of darkness, despare, and shear lonelyness. I think it is only natural from time to time to embrace these emaotions... SO i give to you the Cascase mountain range-- beauty, grandeur , and touch of mystery. Find your mysterious beauty

merry holidays!
