Cuyahoga Valley National Park: photography scavenger hunt- yeah!

Chirp chirp chirp …… swish swish……  munch, munch, munch munch…. Ahhhh, the sounds of nature…..

Spring has finally arrived, and how lucky are we that Ohio has one of the most beautiful national parks in the country?!

We have the amazing opportunity to capture Spring at its finest on a real live scavenger hunt- did I say a scavenger hunt? Yessssss I said a scavenger hunt- a real life scavenger hunt— with a Park volunteer photographer, a ranger, and best of all: with each other!! What could be funner?!!

So bring your cameras: I don’t care if it’s a camera-camera, a manual camera with film, a digital camera, your phone camera, an underwater camera from Walmart, or your niece‘s camera that you get to borrow. So what if it’s made from the manufacturer who makes easy bake ovens! It’s all good! Even if you don’t have a camera, bring your mind’s camera. We all have one. Although sometimes I lose it temporarily — along with my mind!

We will scavenger hunt with this Park volunteer photographer and Ranger, and then we will walk a little bit by ourselves, leaded by Moi!

And then we will go and get something to eatties between 5 pm and 5:30 at Sarah’s Vineyard: https://www.sarahsvineyardwinery.com/

Just say you were with AlexAndria and Cleveland, Eastside fun and they seat you!

So wear some comfortable, ankle protective shoes, since we will be walking on a hilly, maybe muddy, maybe rocky trail. Bring some snacks in case you get hungry, bring some water in case you get thirsty, and dress in layers in case it’s a little bit cold. I recommend a backpack. Check out the weather that day and bring a hat or gloves or rain gear or sunglasses and sunscreen. Make sure to prepare for the outdoors; if you don’t prepare for the outdoors, I’m going to have to come over to you and bundle you up myself like a itty bitty baby and then I will have to Coochie Coochie Coochie Coochie bougie bougie bougie bougie cutie-paaahhhtootie you- right in front of your friends. And then I will have to take a picture of that. And then I will have to post it, make T-shirts out of it , and make everybody wear it — on the news — and on Facebook — and Instagram — and at your kids’ soccer games. Is that what you want? 
Hm! I thought so……

OK, so prepare for the outdoors. I repeat prepare for the outdoors.
