Wednesday Walk and Make me smile entry Storyboard walk

This post is for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)

Note I want to thank @bluemist for sponsoring this challenge starting from this week, due to their support I will be from next week sending out Steem to a selection of people who partake in the Wednesday walk as I will explain in the guidelines below all of the liquid rewards for this post will be shared with a selection of participants.

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.

This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines

Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.

Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.

Try and get a few shots not just one

Add a bit of a write up about where you walked

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss

Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .

Following me and resteeming the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk, plus I will be sending some Steem to a selection of those who participate, please note this is a change from sending out SBI shares, as I did in the past.

Actifit

A good App that works well in conjunction with the Wednesday Walk or any day walk is @actifit, which rewards you with Actifit Tokens and Steemit Upvotes, if you use the app to track your steps and do a post of your actifit total each day.

If you do a lot of activity I do recommend you check it out

Make me Smile Collaboration

As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,

Here are the rules for her challenge

Your post can be writing, singing, video, poem,drawing, photography etc.... the most important part is your post Make me" smile, Remember, the ME is whoever read/view/listen to your post and this includes YOURSELF.
b. Your content must be ORIGINAL CONTENT
c. Please include at least 50 Words in your post

So the collaboration giveaway is as follows
As well as the SBI shares normally given away from the Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenge, we will send one SBI Share each to one lucky winner who joins both challenges in one post

This weeks walk the Story walk At Eisenhower Park in Milford CT

Now I had seen some posts on Farcebook about the Storyboard walk being opened in Milford, but had not seen it myself till a walk I took last week, here is a little bit about the project

After many months of research, fundraising and public presentations, Marco Buschauer has completed his Eagle Scout project! We welcome all to visit the newly installed StoryWalk, located on a path behind the Splash Pad at Eisenhower Park.

StoryWalk is an interesting and exciting new initiative that started in Vermont and has spread to all states and 14 countries worldwide. StoryWalk promotes literacy and exercise in young children and encourages families to spend time together in nature. It involves placing pages from a story book in stands along a path, encouraging people to read the book while walking outside. The books will be changed on a quarterly basis by library staff, and while mostly showcasing children's books, adult poetry and short stories may also be featured.

I think this is a great initiative, to get kids out for walks and readign all in one, the walk is a good lenght and i will share a few shots showing it

Weekly giveaway of shares


I am sending Steem to a few people selected through a random draw so on the weekend all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk. this week I am sending 5 Steem to @gulia.peito, @cloudblade, @travel2019, @emergehealthier, @saffisara, @qwerrie, @joanstewart, @lizelle, @olga.maslievich,

As @elizacheng and I collaborated with our Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenges

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive one Steem from me and this week it is @TBA

I would love to be able to give everyone who joins a Steem Basic Income share, but I don't make enough steem each week to do so, but I will try and share them around fairly between those that join the challenge

I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.

That looks like a lot of fun for the kids. We don't have anything like that.

I think its a great idea and from I read slowly more places are setting up similar

Very fun story walk, Thanks for sharing!

MY pleasure to share :)

Awesome shots! This reminds me of some of the places that my parents used to take me when we were kids to walk on the nature trails. We actually grew up right around the corner from a huge nature center. Good memories!

I do love walking in parks like the the story walk is a nice addition

First and foremost thank you for the Steem as well as this wonderful way of sharing, getting out is so important no matter the age.

Story walk, very innovative for children to enjoy the outdoors and reading, no we don't have any in our region.

Most welcome :) and yes i love this idea to get kids motivated to get out for a walk and a story :

Walking is going to be restricted with this virus doing the rounds, still have a garden, keep walking....

True, most of my walks will be just in our little back area and on the deck for some fresh air

Those photos are so beautiful and what I needed to see so thanks so much for joining ;)

Amazing post my friend. Beautiful photographs..

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

I like these pages/boards, great idea! Wonderful photos, a very nice place for walking.

I think its a great idea it may motivate people to get out for walks

That is an interesting and beautiful path!!

Ohh yeah I think its a great idea

Great! Imagine with My grandson doing that wall and i'm sure that he would love it

What a cool idea - I have never seen such a storyboard walk anywhere before. I bet the children love to walk there, especially when they know the stories change from time to time.
Stay safe and healthy my friend 😊


I would be quite !DERANGED if I didn't give you a !BEER and a !COFFEEA for this $trdo post 😉

!invest_vote

Ohh yeah this was the first time i have seen one of these I think its a brilliant idea

———————————————————————————————————

in days of old there was !COFFEEA and !BEER, which is kind of !DERANGED when you think about it

I like it and I would have some ideas where our city could make such a story walk.
Maybe I will come up with such a suggestion in th etown hall when the whole virus thing is over.


In the !DERANGED !shop of the !MARLIANS you can buy cheapest !BEER and !COFFEEA and some other things you don't want to know what it is 😉

That would be so coolif you can do it, I did read often scout groups take the lead on setting it up, maybe the local scouts may show interest there

———————————————————————————————————

in days of old there was !COFFEEA and !BEER, which is kind of !DERANGED when you think about it

I think our people and the kids would like such walks, but first we have to leave the virus behind us and then we can just hope that there's enough money left for such things.


In the !DERANGED !shop of the !MARLIANS you can buy cheapest !BEER and !COFFEEA and some other things you don't want to know what it is 😉

Ohh yes for sure this is not a project for now :)

That's true - it will have to wait until the world is normal again 🙂

lets enjoy the benefits of this silly investment!

Good afternoon @tattoodjay, beautiful photos. Unfortunately, this week we have been given the order to lock ourselves up at home, making it impossible for me to participate in your challenge. I hope that next week things will improve and I can continue my contribution. I send you greetings from Spain. And of course also my upvote... :)

Thanks I think many will be not able to do walks over the next few week possibly, I may have to dig into my archives myself ;)

The most important thing now is that people take care of themselves, it is a complicated situation. You have to be responsible and follow orders to avoid victims. I send you my best wishes, friend. :)

Yes I agree that is what is most important I totally agree

What a cool concept to get families out together in nature, exercising and reading.
We need more of these StoryWalks! You've already been by to visit my Wednesdaywalk post -- thank you!

https://steemit.com/hive-148441/@ninahaskin/leave-the-road-take-the-trails

Ohh yeah we need more of these out there for sure ;)

And what a lovely entry it was

Cheers and !BEER

Thank you for having reviewed ... I'm very glad you liked it ... regards.
