20080921 - En-Garde!

The September Scavenger Hunt

#21 - Fence or Balloon

Well, I didn't realise that this one would do 'til I was driving back home!!! A bit slow today!
It was Sam's daddy's birthday today (well, tomorrow actually but today's close enough!), so here's Sam fencing with his grandad in the woods at Tandle Hill :)

NB. They're not really swords, they're not really sticks either - they're snakes!
