Can you spot the carefully arranged pebble amongst the many thousands of pebbles at Praia da Canal, in the Western Algarve? Did we stumble across a Geocaching clue? I wonder…
Can you spot the carefully "Arranged" pebble?
Arranged. Sometimes you chance across things which were arranged on purpose, or on a whim – find something in your environment which was arranged by a human hand for others to enjoy!

A carefully "Arranged" pebble at Praia da Canal
Today’s post is inspired by the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s theme is “Arranged”.
I’m intrigued, what do you think it represents?
That makes me want to scribble words on every stone I see!
…but what are the words scribbled on this stone?
I like to rearrange stones on beaches too, glad to see I’m not the only one.
You would certainly have fun rearranging the stones on this beach, they come in all shapes and sizes!
This is from an old post, if you’d like to see what I do. I may have left some confused people on the beach.

Interesting. It does look like the artist signed off on his ‘work’. Biodegradable art…we can all live with it for sure.
It looks like the artist’s signature? The arrangement suggests that the other pebbles (in the near vicinity) were part of the ‘work’.
Could be the artists signature and a small part of a larger picture.
You may be right Piglet. There is indeed a geocache at Praia do Pedras. It’s called Pedra da Agulha which, according to Google Translate, means Stone Needle!!
Could be. Praia do Pedras ah yes, it is also called that. I don’t know why people call it Canal, We will have to try the Cache, but you do need a fourwheel drive!
I think maybe someone has written a wish on that rock, and the little tower of rocks is for good luck. But what do I know.
I like the wish idea! more chance of someone finding it than sending a ltter in a bottle!
I think it says . . . Rocks rock!
You rock Nancy
Loved your poem BTW

Some sort of graffiti (or is that graffito?!) but regardless of what it says, love the shot!
Hi Chica, it was one of those photographs you take for no particular reason other than you think it might be useful for a blog post one day! LOL you never know…

lol such a fun find. My sister does Geocaching. We went with her & my bil geocaching one weekend. We were awestruck by the creativity and artsy ways the geocahers made their hides.
It’ll be interesting to hear what the word(s) is printed on the stone you found. Cool find and great fun for this weeks photo theme.
We really enjoyed Geo caching the few times we went. Disappointed last time as it was pouring of rain so could not make it. I wanted to get our own GPS so we could go, but they are quite expensive and in all honesty I am terrified of running into a pack of stray dogs in the country. I like Geo caching when there is more than 2 of us
I’m like you, If the GPS devices wasn’t so expensive we would get one. I think being with my sil & bil was why we had such a great time. I doubt we would enjoy geocaching if it was just us. Snakes, wasps and spiders also put a damper on my enthusiasm too.

I think it is like us carving a heart and initials in a tree. A love sign, I think.
Maybe it is just the romantic in me!

Hi PiP, well it does look interesting! I’m not that crazy about blue ceeshe. I like paprika, but I’m wondering what it would taste like having Cinnamon sprinkled on top instead and maybe tossing in some raisins.
