White Stone Scavenger Hunt on Davis Street

Stones with questions that had to be answered. 
Families on our street recently completed a White Stone Scavenger Hunt where 12 white stones with questions were hidden along the street.  Finders had to answer the questions and then leave the stones for others to find.  Some of the stones were Souvenir Stones and finders could keep one of those each.
Souvenir stones that had no questions to answer and could be kept by the finder.  
Nine families participated and all found the stones and answered the questions.   Each child who participated received a prize.  A drawing was held for family prizes.  The Cliftons won first prize (a $25. gift certificate to Local Fresh Ice Cream), the Roses won second prize (a $10. gift certificate to Local Fresh) and the Anders won third prize (a $5. gift certificate to Local Fresh).

I think I had more fun than the children as I watched folks hunting for the stones on the street.  My next project for July is to have a treasure hunt for the street.
Treasure chest ready to be filled with treasures.  

Stay tuned.

Winter Wonderland on Davis Street

Patio out front of dining room.  See Maggie over near the fence. 
It's January 2018 and we have had the most beautiful snow here in Raleigh.  Wet snow began falling mid morning and is still falling into the evening.  Here are a few shots from around Davis Street.
