September is Scavenger Hunt month at the wonderfully fun Curvaceous Dee’s Meme ! And, as we are now almost half-way through a month of some lovely new images there, I thought it would Scavengerly Sexciting to celebrate the fact by spreading the news and hoping to encourage even more of you to join in the fun.

Because, from my point-of-view, Scavenger Hunt is not just about flashing one’s private bits in public, it is ALSO a Sex-Positive, Body-Positive, means of spreading dialogue and discussion, understanding, recognition and . . . hopefully . . . acceptance of the importance of talking more openly about one of the most basic of emotions (possibly the most basic) that we all share.

Far too many of us still feel repressed or shameful or embarrassed to talk openly about our sexuality, our bodies, and our feelings. Dee’s Scavenger Hunt is a wonderful example of how we can help to dispel and overcome that repression and shame. I challenge you to scroll through the long, and growing, lists of Scavenger Participants and Scavenger Locations, and not smile, giggle and gasp. I am positive (Sex Positive) you will feel happier and better about the world around you after clicking through those links . . . and that you may possibly, hopefully, be inspired . . . as I was . . . to join in the fun.

You can see some of my own submissions to this most wonderful of Meme’s from the Gallery below, BUT I really to urge you to follow those other Participants and Locations links above for much more inspiration and fun!!!

Come on – Dare to Bare !!!

“You must try the Restaurant on the Hill,” they’d told us on the first day of our Greek Island holiday. “The view is beautiful from up there”.

“But how do we get all the way up there?” we asked, remembering that the bus journey down to the beach had been very steep. We weren’t sure we’d have the energy to walk all the way up the hill as it was so hot . . . even in the evening.

“It’s ok, there’s a public stairway, from the sign on the beachfront” we were told.

“That must be it” Hubby said. “Look the path behind you leads back to those stairs winding up the hillside”.

“Well . . . it’s still a bloody hot, long climb” I moaned. “But I suppose we’re almost there now. That’s it at the top, I can hear people chattering”.

“Oh . . . I need a bit of a rest . . .  just to cool-off for a minute!”

“That’s a bit better . . . I’m still hot though! . . . Anyway, pass me my dress now before anyone comes down. I can’t go to dinner like this!!!”

“Well, it IS a beautiful view . . . but I so, SO need a glass of wine to cool down!!!” . . . and I hope after that climb that this will qualify for the “Public Stairs” category at Curvaceous Dee’s Scavenger Hunt ?

There are lots of my other Scavengers, at my Scavenger Hunt Listing page . . . and can I suggest you join in the fun with some sharing of your own??? ESPECIALLY, as this is September Scavenger Hunt Month. Come on – Dare to Bare !!!

We did have some nice warm and sunny days this summer . . . and some lovely weekend breaks away from the hustle and bustle of London.

One such visit was a wonderful day on the south coast enjoying a peaceful picnic in the park by the river.

And this beautiful Bandstand was a lovely spot to relax and enjoy some shade.

And although I’m not very musical . . . I did enjoy my brief moments on the stage!

Now I realise that there is not yet a “Bandstand” category at Curvaceous Dee’s Scavenger Hunt but can I suggest that we start one?

Some of my other Scavengers, that have been allowed, can be found at my Scavenger Hunt Listing page . . . and can I suggest, why not Dare to Bare, and join in the fun with some sharing of your own???.

When I first suggested to Hubby that I wanted to post some Scavenger Hunt memories of our fun adventures over the years, his initial doubts were quickly replaced by “there’s this one place you MUST do”.

I knew just where he meant from the glint in his eye, somewhere he has to go back to every time we return to that hemisphere . . . “The Reservoir”!!!

It was his childhood playground and every time we returned to gaze from it’s hill across the harbour to those islands with strange names, he’d repeat his stories of cowboy and indian skirmishes in the native bush below, scaling dangerous peaks to the summit of Everest, journeys to the moon and lunar landings!

And each time we’ve returned since that first visit 32 years ago, he’d moan as the bush gradually disappeared and new houses crept further and further up his magic hill.  The view is still stunning of course, but now his sacred reservoir is virtually surrounded by houses and out-buildings.

So despite my protests that “a Scavenger Hunt picture would have been so, so much easier 32 years ago!!!” I agreed to grant his wish.

So this post is especially for Hubby . . . to add to all those other distant “boys own” memories.

You can do some exploring for yourself at my previous Scavenger locations on my Scavenger Hunt Listing page.

We’ve just returned from a glorious . . . much too-short . . . get-away-break to our most favourite Greek Island.

Not every day started out brilliantly sunny, but even though the water was still as calm as a mill-pond . . .

I felt I should really help out with the beach safety-watch whilst the Lifeguard took a short break . . .

I wasn’t too sure about my proficiency on the surfboard . . .

. . . but thought that, at the very least, if I kept an eye out on the waterfront it would be helpful.

Oh . . . I can see him returning along the beach, so a normal (and more professional) service can be resumed.

My short-time on Lifeguard Duty was such fun I thought I would share it here and at Curvaceous Dee’s Scavenger Hunt. I’m not sure if there is a “Lifeguard Chair”, or perhaps a “Public Service”, category yet . . . but am hoping Dee will allow one or the other?

And come-on, why not Dare to Bare and join in the fun with some sharing of your own???

On a recent weekend away to the coast, the guide books recommended visiting the local Priory as a peaceful place to stop for a stroll.

That’s Priory as in Church silly . . . NOT the Priory Clinic!!!

And how could we possibly resist when the car park was displaying my favourite number!!!

Walking through the surrounding grounds was certainly calming and tranquil . . . especially this lovely pathway.

And it felt wonderful to be spending a Sunday morning in such grand surroundings.

But as the bells began to chime announcing the end of Sunday Mass, there was only time for one last photograph before people began appearing from the doorway behind.

Nevertheless, although this may not qualify for the Church location at Curvaceous Dee’s Scavenger Hunt, I’m hoping it will make the Cemetery listing?

If you are not getting too bored at looking at my photographs by now, you can visit lots and lots of my other “Qualifying Attempts” at my Scavenger Hunt Listing page.

I’m in holiday-mode at present and whenever I’m on my way to a new destination I always think back to previous vacations and the fun times I’ve had.

After all being away from home is all about having lots of fun isn’t it? Even . . . as on this occasion . . .  when one gets caught short occasionally!

It’s always such a relief when you are in a strange location and need to spend a penny . . . to find a clean and comfortable convenience.

Even if one does have to wait . . . patiently . . . in the queue.

But it was certainly well worth the wait. And I just  have to thank the lovely Curvaceous Dee  for not only finding me such spotless public-toilets . . .

But for also taking these photographs . . . well, I could hardly have taken Hubby inside with me, now could I ???.

If you feel inclined to sit and ponder for a little while, there is a growing collection of my other Scavenger Holiday Pictures on my Scavenger Hunt Listing page.

It’s been so hot in London recently I just had to get away to the coast to feel a cooling sea-breeze. And I thought my trip to this lovely sailing club would make an ideal addition to Curvaceous Dee‘s fun Scavenger Hunt.

Whilst I do love looking at sailing boats . . . and sometimes sailors . . .

I never feel very comfortable about actually getting into one . . . (I mean getting into a boat, silly!!!).

Although, this one does have quite an appropriate name don’t you think?
