Alternative Transportation Echo Challenge.

we were to find things related to sustainability from a list. And take a picture. Like rollerblading etc. We also wanted to document living life so things like picnics and bookstores. We did this car free and used the free Orbit. Bus. Three of the four people used non-motor methods to get their.

So this was like a treasure hunt? It looks interesting. Can you give more details?

Yea I found a bunch of things to photograph and created a list that were geared towards transportation, landmarks, art projects, and people doing things. It was about sustainability so if you just came into town you could find things like the bus, bicycle shops, etc. Or while on the bus take a look at Tempe.
They had to find them and photo graph them.

Since it was a small group we ditched the whole game part and just looked for things on the list. I was able to help them out. We then went and had dinner.

Does that help?

example
Park signs
an outside drinking fountain.
Bike Route sign with a shot of the road, lane, and sign
bicycle rack art or bus stop art.
skateboarder
rollerblader
Orbit bus driver include name of driver in the filename plus
bicycle shop two members
Book store two memebers
vegan/veggie resturants two memebers
thirft stores two members
sports stores two memebers
pedestrian sign and crosswalk
any public art add title to filename.
Atm machine and a street sign or background
Blue mail box with street signage or background

Sounds like fun, actually. A couple months ago I watched a large group of adults doing a tresure hunt for "nature stuff" in a local park. They had to walk 3 or 4 miles all together, and there were also various games they had to play along the way, like blindfold obstacle courses. I wished I could join them.

What is the large body of water in the photos? I always thought it was real dry there.
