And the winner is...

...not the blog, but Team Walking and Talking placed 52 out of 77 entrants in the 2011 Scene in Winston-Salem Scavenger Hunt. Team members vow that things will be different next year - for example, next year they plan to read the instructions and will not try to do mental arithmetic while they are walking. (It would also help if one of the city's many obelisks was a destination.) The photo shows Team Walking and Talking in Old Salem, where they successfully completed the task of calculating the number of triangles it takes to make a Moravian star.

Susan's house gets a name...

...and a sign, both courtesy of Jon. "Beecroft" was a station we never visited on one of the train lines to North Sydney. (Just filling in while we are waiting anxiously for the Scene in Winston-Salem race results to be posted on line!)
