Day 9: #SaltysScavengerHunt - Local/regional store brand
So, I didn’t think Sees Candy shop would qual, but they’re sooo good. I wasn’t sure if Trader Joes would qualify since they’re in 42 states now. I started going 2 them when there were only a handful of stores in So Cal. See alt text for rest.

I failed U, SaltyPete! I just couldn't do it. One, I wouldn't know where 2 start looking 4 the old school pics, it'd take hrs 2 try 2 find them. Two, I try 2 remain somewhat anonymous online. Less trouble 4 me that way. Tho I do like the idea & seeing others. #SaltysScavengerHunt Day 10:Pic of me

I haven’t had these skates on in decades. And, strangely enough, there was only 1 wristguard in the box. What in the world did I do with the other one? ? ? 🫢🤔

Gather ‘round, young whipper-snappers. I’m going to tell you a story you won’t believe! Back in the olden days, you used to get paper tickets mailed (snail mail) 2U when you made airline reservations. And, they served free hot meals in flight!

Day 26: #SaltysScavengerHunt - a bookmark or library card
I present a bookmark. I tend to use a simple post-it note most of the time. It is easy to stick to the page I leave off of. The photo, of course, does not do it justice. It is a 3D holographic image of 3 snowy owls. See Alt Text.

Day 28: #SaltysScavengerHunt - an object depicting a rainbow or the sun
I thought I was totally going to fail this one, despite loving both rainbows & the sun. I’m not sure if my ribbon collection qualifies, but here it is, at least part of it. I hope this can count! 😉

Chocolate is a gift from the gods. I'm addicted to Cadbury mini eggs. I buy 12 bags during Easter and open one a month so I can have them all year round.

Agreed! I don't know where U are,but if U haven't tried See's Candies,U need to if you get near 1 of their stores.Maybe mostly a west coast thing-Mary See started making candies here in CA(1921)& they've expanded outside the state,not sure how far. I get stocked up monthly.Today was 1 of those days!
