Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I feel a little guilty being the winner since I wasn't able to go - I wanted to but it just wasn't in the cards this time. For months I followed the preparations and planning, learned about Savannah and all it has to offer, and since have enjoyed the photos and the great reviews and follow-up. In a way I feel like I got a sense of Savannah and was able to share in the spirit of a major GTG.

Hopefully next time I'll get to be a part of it all and finally meet some of my fellow travelers.

Thanks again,
Paula

Congratulations, Paula! I think it's nice that someone who wasn't able to attend and missed the fun could get the prize.

Congratulations Paula,
We are almost neighbors, I am just up the road in Redmond. Sorry you could not join in all the fun in Savannah, but I am so happy for you that you won! Maybe we will get a chance to meet at one of the local gtg.
