This week’s assignment from the League: Show me some green!

Alright League members, it’s time to put away your keyboards and pick up your camera. This week’s assignment is our first photo challenge! The subject matter of your photo should be…

—

Things that are green.

Once you put up a post on your site add a comment below with the URL. Next Monday, I will put up a post here on Cool & Collected with a list of all the contributing blogs. Once that list is posted, if you haven’t already done so, try to incorporate at least three of your fellow League members’ links (but more would be great!) into the article you wrote on your site.

By cross-posting like this, we will help each other out by sending new readers to each other’s sites. Have fun!

 

(Wondering what the heck this is all about? We’re recruiting for this loose-knit, rag tag crew! Here are the details for joining The League.)

    Hmm, it’s been a few weeks, “I Don’t Know” what to say for myself. I wracked my brain and all I could think of is, well, I Don’t Know…

    I am totally bending the rules and using my own interpretation of the assignment. But hey, they’re all green and I have a bunch of pictures in the post so it counts in spirit!
