The "And....The Winner Is!!" Story

It was an ordinary day. I just opened my email and got this message: StMartinStMaarten Congratulations to Biglar for his winning photo and taking the #1 spot in the " Series 3 Photo Contest Shoot Out "Biglar took it home with photo #1 " Happy Bay Envy " with 41 votes. Congratulations to SXMNorm for 2nd Place for photo #5 " favorite view " with 35 votes. I won!! Thanks to all of you who voted for my photos. By the way, I'm known as Biglar. My brother has called me that for years, even though he is much bigger than I am! The forum administrator, Nanci, called me last night and asked for my mailing address so they could send me my prize. Anxious to see it. Maybe a trip for 2 for a month, all expenses paid, to some exotic island like St. Martin. But then again, I didn't think there was any prize given for the contest. Just some fun showing off photos I have taken on our favorite vacation spot in the Caribbean. I'm glad that everyone enjoyed looking at them and congratulations to Norm for his really neat photo of the airport runway on St. Martin. I have been trying for years to get a shot like he had, but he must have convinced the pilot to fly past and circle around before they landed. Sorry I can't post a pix of it here, but all photos entered in the contest were posted so that no one could copy and paste any of them. I guess that is best, because one photo had to be disqualified because it belonged to someone other than the person who took it. I understand that a new photo contest is in the works for the ELT board. Photos of the food from St. Martin. Hey, we are planning a trip to the island soon and I will take an extra card along just for photos of the food we eat. My wife can hardly wait! No eating anything until I have a photo of it. Hear that dear!
