Here's last Wednesday's picture:

I did things a bit differently last week; I was trying to get you guys to see the goose in the picture. See him...to the right of the tree? Um...maybe I won't try that again LOL! Although a couple of you got it! First was villageofmany : "A canadian goose or heron visiting in the background?" YES!!! Julie also got it: "... are you referring to the goose (or whatever it is) sticking its head up near the tree?"

But...OMG you guys had some WEIRD GREAT answers!

MaryEllen: "...Capn Sparrow scampers down to the walk at midnight only to meet you under the moonlight..." Hmmm...I kinda like that idea!

Then we had Laura who said: "is this the hiding spot where you bury all the bodies?" Only the ones I kill at work, hon!

DebR obviously knows me so well: "A garden planted and maintained by all your admirers as a tribute to your beauty and wit. :-)". BWAHAHAHHA!!!

T was having visions: "I see is an area up on the hill and it looks like 2 giant boobs are sticking up out of the ground and the branches from the tree and groping at them! I'm RIGHT this week, right?"

And Carl...well, Carl was gross, but he DID make me laugh out loud: "I'm thinking you caught a shot of the illusive Loch Ness Moster. Although, if viewed right, that same dark shape looks a bit like the silhouette of a tampon....hmmm...."

Finally, Colleen and her very active imagination said: "Here Lies Mary Poppins: An umbrella stuck in the ground. Maybe she jumped in."

As always, thanks for playing! By the way, all photos used in What Is It Wednesday are marked as "private" in my flickr account...that's so no one can view the picture at a bigger size to get a better look!

So this week...

What is it?

First I have to say HA I AM FIRST because I am never first.

My guess is it is a sand dollar from the beach.

Cha Ching! Sand dollar markings!

Aliens landed on the beach and left a message to all the humans in the sand.

Markings left from dragging the dead bodies (from work, of course) down the beach on your way to Plymouth Rock last weekend. ;-)

Sneaker print (boat shoe-style tread) in the sand.

I'll say sand dollar!

Fossil? What's a sand dollar?

It's an embroidery kit before you do the embroidery.

That is definitely a sand dollar right?

Looks like a shell, like a sand dollar.

of course we could see the goose there, it just didn't look out of place.

This week, it's clearly a squashed trilobite.

that looks like the mark left by aliens after they suck your brains out....or maybe it's a sand dollar? :)

Negative footprints or trilobites

A sand dollar the sea gull left as a cheap tip for the crab

I think it's marks in the sand at the beach.... Or could be Britney's but-tocks

Sand dollar!

SAND DOLLAR!!!!

Well really it is the marking left from Capt's Jack Sparrow's boot as he stepped off the Black Pearl.

Have a great day

Ooh! Ooh! I know what it is! A close up of a sand dollar, right?? Am I right?

Sand dollar. Don't spend it all in one place.

You know, it echoes in here...
sand dollar, sand dollarrr

It's clearly a photo of your not-quite-successful attempt to quilt sand! :-)

I got this one, that is a fossilized tape worm. No doubt about it.

It has to be a sand dollar.
