Christina, I already have at least one post that perfectly fits this description. Does this have to be a new post or can I enter one I think is perfect for this, but that I've already posted?

Excellent idea!  This actually will force me to visit one of the nature's beauty in my local area!  The most I've been to is the playground park for my daughter to play!

Great idea to get us away from our keyboards and outside for some fresh air, photos, and real-world experience. I'm looking forward to following this contest.

Christina - What a fun idea, and will be my first contest! Being one who loves to get out there, probably the hardest thing will be to narrow down the choices - or like Lisa Hill, submit many :->. Thanks for doing this!

Christina,  It sounds like a great contest.....if it were better weather here right now, I surely would enter. Can I use a post that I wrote awhile back and is already in existence on my blog? It fits exactly with these contest guidelines.

Thanks for your reply,

Jo

I'm glad I shot some photos I can use for this before all the snow & cold arrived!  The snow is pretty, but I'd want to show how beautiful my area is in summertime!
