For the month of November I’m looking for a bench with either a message OR an Autumnal theme
(any kind of writing will do, it could be a message, a plaque, a dedication or even a map)

I love the ones on benches in the USA often showing a great sense of humour – this one is at Santa Cruz, California. I saw one with “June’s bench of Hugs” but sadly didn’t take a photograph. Now I want to know what kind of guy Brett Gardner was. Casual I guess 🙂
If you would like to join in with the Bench photo challenge then please take a look at my Bench Series page. No complicated rules, just a bench and a camera required 🙂
- Create your own post and title it Bench Series: November
- Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too
- Add the tag ‘bench series’ so everyone can find the benches easily in the WP Reader
- Get your post in by the end of the month, as the new bench theme comes out on the first Sunday in December.
My Picks of the Week:
The last of the occupied benches came in throughout the week, most with real people rather than sculptures. Violetsky has some unusual mums on benches, more mums from Elaine, whilst Sue goes for a male on a bench and Sylvia has grand-kidlets amongst others! Ruth finds some yarn bombing, but the scariest occupied bench has to be this one. What do you think?
As always there are so many delightful benches to view, I hope you will check out the other links within the comment section. And thank you all for your overwhelming response in October – it seems that a lot of you like to photograph benches that are occupied.
Lovely theme… 🙂 so many benches in memory of here in parks etc… loved the one chosen……. Have a wonderful week Jude love Sue x
Thanks for the mentions – that big bird is still amusing/scaring me! I like the message on this bench, and the one that you didn’t manage to get a picture of is a great one too.
See, I wasn’t always obsessed with bench photographs 😉
Gilly beat me to it (as in most things 😦 ). I reckon surfer too. Will endeavour to polish up my benches before it’s too late. 🙂
A gorgeous point of focus on this bench.
Thank you Cee 🙂
My sort-of bench with a message, Jude: http://tishfarrell.com/2015/11/01/bench-with-a-mission/
That made me laugh. One really gets a sense of the person commemorated.
Much less formal than the brass plates.
Hi Jude, Here is my entry for Nov. Great theme! https://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/2015/11/03/mono-madness-and-bench-series-44/
