The Scoop is a weekly post designed to highlight some of THE WEEKEND communities' excellent content. It will focus on original, weekend-oriented posts and members who use their own original photos will be prioritised. It will be a collection drawn from any blogs posted into the community, including #weekend-engagement entries, and is designed to promote the great work being done by so many of our community members.

This week's selections

@riverflows

Follow this link to a emotion filled post about love, life, grief and the passage of time. This was one of my personal favourites.

@rinalars

Follow this link for a heart wrenching post about what family means, some of the lessons that she learned from her father after he passed away and the catharsis that writing brings - a gift that he gave to her in the form of a very special journal.

@boryanamtl

Follow this link for some interesting history and facts on tulips as you walk with her through the Canadian Tulip Festival. Some truly gorgeous colours. Did you know that the Tulip festival first took place almost 70 years ago to commemorate Canada's assistance in liberating the Netherlands after World War II. Go have a read!

@darine.darine

Follow this link for an enjoyable photographic walk along a beach in Kemer where she found some funky little crabs and other marine creatures as well as a very photogenic coastline.

@belug

Follow this link to see how much fun Belu and Flor had together in Italy. Starjumps on the beach filled with gorgeous smiles and a friendship stacked with memories, scenic places and very pretty drinks for toasting.

We hope you all have a great week and weekend to come and look forward to seeing you in the #weekend-engagement initiative where you can select from several blog prompts to enter and have a chance to win some Hive.

Don't forget that you don't have to wait until the weekend to post your blog into THE WEEKEND community. If your content is weekend-focused it's welcome on any day of the week. Don't forget to read and follow the community rules and take some time to read the Posting Guide which gives additional helpful information.

Cheers until the next time
