2012 Bingo/Scavenger Hunt Ride Results

Pin It Now!

Hello, freeboxers!
Well, the Bingo/Scavenger Hunt was a success despite the rain.  Three wonderful teams showed up and were ready to ride!  I handed out the cards and they were off.
The winners were Petals and Pumpkin Pie with a total of 9 bingos.  They met at Pink - A Love Note Factory back in 2007, I think.  Those were there code names at the factory.  They have been friends ever since and were a great team.

Petals and Pumpkin Pie, Free Box winners!

The other two were great as well.  The funny thing is that every team got all of the bingo squares, but two and yet the scores were 7, 8, 9.  Placement is everything.

The other 2 teams and Meghan, center green, my lovely co-leader and Free Box Zine contributor.

As you can see the rain did dissipate and out came the sun!
Thanks to everyone and I will post more pictures as they come in.
I hope to see everyone at next year's Pedalpalooza!

Father's Day Free Box

I came upon a super cheap and sweet rummage sale today.  I bought a giant velvet painting of a mountain scene for $3 and a paint by numbers for the same price along with a few vintage summer dresses (each dress was $1, wow)

And there on the outskirts of the sale was a free box, which I thought was pretty funny and perfect for father's day.

What could be inside?

a bunch of random wires and electronics; perfect

Free Box Photo for May

Summer is almost here!  Portland has had a few super warm weekends where the free boxes were popping out like daisies.  It was wonderful.
This one, I think, deserves to be the free box photo of the month.  Two reasons:  1) This bin was full of these ceramic shells? and there were so many of them.  2) I have know idea what they were used for, but it was awesome that somebody was willing to share!
enjoy~
