RL probably has Robin trapped so here is a repost of one she did over 5 years ago. I just missed all of the last hunt so I can relate. Everyone please feel free to jump in and help hosting.
If you’ve done at least one Scavenger Hunt and have time to host one, we’d really appreciate it! You can sign up by posting your name and the current hosting list stickie on Artwork from Life forum.
Rules for Hunting:
* All items on the list must be sketched from life–not imagination nor photo references
* Each object you draw can count for only one item on the list, no matter how many shapes/parts/colors that object contains. This was agreed to by unanimous vote among the participants
* You may place multiple objects together in a drawing or painting, and may count those objects as separate list items, but no single object can count for more than one list item.
* All items posted must be numbered. Count them as you go. The first item you sketch and post will be #1 regardless of its place on the list. Do them in whatever order you wish, but count them in the order in which you sketch them, from 1 to 26.
Do as many or as few items as you like; you don’t have to finish the entire list to participate! You don’t have to comment on every post, but comment, if and when you can.
Scavenger Hunts last for 9 days, with the next hunt starting on the 9th day.
Please tell us your size, surface, medium, and the amount of time it took you to do each sketch. We love hearing about your subjects and setups. Photos of your subjects are also welcome!

2. – Bottom of something
3. – has complex outline

10. – rock

The good thing is that I got lots of exercise.
comment by Fletch! Love the wild, windswept disarray of your Marina sketch!
Your sketch is fantastic - somehow the moody way you've been sketching the shore matches the feel of the shore itself - really wonderful to see your sketches, and also brings back many memories of my time on the edge of my little part of the world 
Yuummmy pizza!!! Terrific sketch, and chair as well!
so I'll be back later with more comments, starting with post #12 (for my own reference)...
