I won a photo contest!

When Mello Mike wrote in his blog that he was having "Mello Mike's 1st Annual Roadrunner Photo Contest," I opened my Pictures folder to my Blog Photos, and searched for "roadrunner."  I love seeing those guys running around my campsite, and always try for a photo when I see one, so I had a bunch to choose from.  There was no doubt that I was going to enter the contest.

I'm not a contest person, but a Roadrunner Photo Contest?  That was a no-brainer for me - that day I sent along two of my favorite photos to enter the contest.

Imagine my surprise when I got an e-mail letting me know my photo had won First Place!  I've never won a contest before.  Isn't it nice to know that even in your 60's, something special and new can happen if you just make the effort?


Check out Mike's blog announcing the First and Second Place Winners to see the two winning photos.  Thanks, Mike!

You'd better keep your cameras handy - I'm sure there will be a "Mello Mike's 2nd Annual Roadrunner Photo Contest," and maybe next year you'll be a winner!

From Me and Katie, have a great evening, everyone!  :)
