Wednesday Walk make me smile post Downtown Milford

This post if 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.

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 a walk a took around Downtown Milford this past week

Starting with a shot of our city hall

Weekly giveaway of shares


I have sent 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 @bethvalverde, @whatisnew, @vickaboleyn, @owasco, @kaerpediem, @eglep, @almi, @rem-steem, @davedickeyyall

@elizacheng will send one Steem to @sinlg,

Note: my projected total liquid steem income from last Wednesday's post will be around 345 Steem I am sending out 46 Steem to people.


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 @mrnightmare89

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.


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

I wonder what possesses a person to paint their house pink and purple?! In the Caribbean they do it for air conditioning (reflect light), but here I think it might be a need for attention.

I like the buffalo picture and beautiful Cloud pictures best. I think you're in the top when it comes to Steemit photographers. I can think of two others that parallel you IMO not better but their own unique flair.

Interesting scenes, and you have a wonderful looking city hall! Ours here is a kinda skyscraper - what a difference! Very imaginative colorful house too... :)
Happy Wednesday!

Isn't it interesting for such a small town, it has a big city touch with some of the architecture! I have only really begun to notice that with some of the towns in Connecticut.

Methinks I have been gone too long!

I really like the town hall and the announcement it makes: I am the town hall hear me roar. :) The restaurant is one of my favorite things about there and no matter how many of those shots you put, you cannot put enough for me. I might even like to eat there.

And the statue? There you go again. Nice touches. Thanks for taking me on a walk of your town and I hope we get to do this again!

Happy #WednesdayWalk~!!

Ohh yeah I do love the style they have inthe cities around here I am so thankful we stumbled upon it and fell in love with it

the SBC we used to go to a lot before Lulu got ill and has to be very careful for her diet I do miss it, but am enjoying cooking most of our meals these days

Always a pleasure to share the beauty of our little city and have a great day

I went to take a look at your posts, but out of curiosity i checked your comments first and see you have been copying and posting the same comment to so many people, and that comes across as spam and will not do well for you on here

I wonder if the cow skull on the city hall has a deeper meaning ;) lol

That river view is great, there I agree with you, but I wouldn't call that house colorful, but I would call it awful.
If anyone here would paint his house that way the authorities would order him to repaint it immediately so that it would fit into the overall picture of the village.


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

I wondered about the skulls but couldn't find out about them I am intrigued as to what they could mean
I guess the owners love that color for a house, but personally I think if thats the case they made need counseling L:OL

Maybe the first Mayor was a cowboy ;)
You are certainly right - they might need professional help. This house deserves the title !DERANGED and maybe it's residents too 😉

You could never paint your house in such a color where I live, and I think even if someone would be allowed to paint his house that way, his neighbors would paint it in a more pleasing color over night or when he's not at home 😉

I believe you, because such colors cannot be allowed everywhere, even not in the states 😉

I love the buffalo skull design in the city hall and that beautiful scene down the river! Fascinating stone and brick work with such a drop off! Wonderful!

Superb! Always! Your images always draw my attention and I love that last one best!

I must say that I was getting my #MarketFriday post ready to schedule for Thursday night as I was going to be out of town on Friday. I hit post instead of schedule and now I cannot post my Wednesday Walk, which was being posted as I cannot have any new post on top of it. People will miss it. :(

Talk about the luck of the Irish!!

Happy #WednesdayWalk

Stunning photos of Downtown Milford, Jay, and the fourth one down is my favorite with it's crisp details! It's not that the purple and turquoise house looks bad, in my opinion it just doesn't fit the region and belongs on a Carribean island -- such as St. Thomas.

Have a terrific weekend! @tattoodjay💕

Hi @tattoodjay! Thanks ever so much for the Steem. I sure do appreciate your kindness. You need sunglasses to look at the purple house and it sure is different. I can see why you like the photo of the beautiful view of the river next to the restaurant. It is captivating and it looks like a painting. Have a great weekend and thanks again! : )
