We had some really great words in June and now id the time to nominate your words for Try-4-July.
As always It could not be easier…
Simply Nominate your word to this forum post and it may be included. You can nominate as many words as you like and if you see a word you like, just add it again... (the more times a word is mentioned, the more chance it will be used). I will then count up the number of times that a word has been added and the top 31 will be our list for Jul2013.
Please make your suggestions for ‘Try-4-July’ between now (22nd) and 6pm next Friday (28th) for them to be included. As always, if you have a word that you would like to see on a particular day, please nominate which day as well, for example: 4th Independence (for Independence Day) or 14th Naked (for National Nude Day)?
The bonus words for June will be; Birthday, Anniversary; Cancer, Leo (star signs) and Ruby, Carnelian (birth stones) so you do not need to ‘suggest’ those.

@kittikat Wow Kitti! That is an awesome list! I might print that out just for the fun of it! After all I do have a granddaughter coming to visit- we could make everyday a celebration!!
fr those of us in USA, I would suggest fireworks be the word for July 4, 5, and 6. There maybe firework shows all three nights. Or have one day be fireworks show and another day be home fireworks.
@bulldog Yup - well any you fancy really - I suggest - you all get to decide! Lol I particularly love the 15th, 17th and the 22nd although I'm not familiar with yellow pigs and for the 16th I thought I'd just leave the lenscap on!
I like Ann's idea of not repeating the same words.
Gentle
Speia
Broken
fragile
strong
friends
ice cream
lolly
panning/movement

Just a suggestion on the tag for July. Understand if you don't want to use it. When I have looked in Jun2013 for Just-4-June shots it is bringing up unrelated shots. My suggestion is that we tag them 'Try-4-July-13' instead of Jul2013, then follow on from there.
