Saturday Snapshots

To participate in the Saturday Snapshot meme post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken then leave a direct link to your post on Alyce's blog At Home With Books. Photos can be old or new, and be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. Please don’t post random photos that you find online.
While we visited Florida, my daughter decided to recreate Stonehenge in dominoes. Here's her rendition.

We have never visited Stonehenge, so my daughter used a photo from the web as a model. Here's the computer picture in the background so you can judge how precise she was.

I'm guessing she had a much easier time putting together and taking down Stonehenge than those prehistoric guys did.

That's awesome! I would love to build something like that in my office (a little superglue and it would be permanent.)

My Snapshot is here.

She did a great job! I love that she enjoys doing creative stuff like that instead of mind numbing things like tv, phone/texting, internet etc!

She did a wonderful job!

My son did a model of Stonehenge when he was in grade school. Each year they had a "Country Fair" and that particular year he chose England.
