Knit-tastic found in Richmond - 1/2012


Guerilla knitting is awesome for so many reasons. The colors, the time and the randomness of doing something like this amazes me. This particular one has been in the same spot for quite a while and continues to suprise anyone who stumbles onto it for the first time. Would be cool to see someone actually creating this, but until then, I like to imagine it is all done by knitting gnomes.

Homer found in Amsterdam - 5/2011


This image has a few things that make me very happy. First, drunk Homer, nuff said. Second, I love photographs where you can see the photographer (and in this case, husband too) in a reflection. And lastly, little, tiny hats.

Magic found in Richmond - 5/2012


Prepare to be amazed :) hehe, couldn't resist. I was taking a walk with a friend during work one day and we spotted this magic wand with a note attached (cell phone camera again, apologies). The note invited whoever found it to log onto kindnessgirl.com and mention something good we would like to be a part of in Richmond. Then we were to leave the wand in a new location for someone else to find. Not only was it sweet to find something so creative and positive, but it made me feel like I was five again, and that is seriously magical!

Found on a summers day on Bryce Mountain - 7/2011


I love random things so much! While on a walk with my folks we noticed this pair of ice skates just hanging on a tree. Being familiar with the area, I can tell you that there is no skating rink nearby and on top of it, it was the middle of summer. I'm sure there might be a completely logical explanation, but my imagination loves the mystery!

Hollow point found in Richmond - 1/2012

 I was on my way to grab some carry out one day and noticed something shining in the sun and found this. A friend I was with at the time recognized it as a hollow point bullet. It was found in a parking lot in downtown Richmond, which during the weekend is full of people visiting the city. It was a strange thing to find, in an unexpected kind of way.

Choices found in Amsterdam - 5/2011


Short and sweet. I had to lighten the image a bit to be able to see it and it was written in a bathroom that was not very well lit. Plus I had to use the only camera I had, which at this particular moment in time was my crappy cell phone camera. Still, it's full of awesome and made me smile.

92 year old tree found in Richmond - 9/2011


This is a fallen tree and was found shortly after Hurricane Irene rolled through Richmond. It was on the Buttermilk Trail and had been cut in order to clear the trail, exposing it's rings and it's age. I thought it was really cool someone took the time to count the rings and document it's age. It's a really pretty trail and is really well taken care of by mainly volunteers.
