AND THE WINNERS ARE. no i missed the fair entry, but they are still winners. i went to curves last week and the worker jan (with brown hair barb) was speechless when i showed her that butterfly picture. she finally asked if she could buy the print. (i gave it to her it was only 29 cents and i had the negitive) she wanted to make a note card out of it. today i went in and jan said she learned how she could turn them into note cards and explained. then she said would you mind if i put on the back photograph by katherine bell on the back. i smiled ear to ear and said no problem. so the lady exercising said do you take good photos, i said yes people say i should be a photographer,i just happend to have the framed beach picture and the butterfly picture waiting to see lois (another worker the blonde barb) jan said you should go out and show her. so this lady looked at the beach picture i had framed and she said in less then 2 seconds, i will pay you 25 dollars for 11 by 7 unframed, i just had my mouth open, she said 30 dollars enough, i just laughed and said i would see how much it cost to develop and go from there, i was shell shocked but that made my day. i cropped this off so you didnt see the red circle on the beach. i missed the fair this year for competing. guess i was lucky i was at work today cuase no lights work in my master bedroom AGAIN must have got a close lightning, all my trees are upright but NOW i know to change the light bulbs first. will do that tommorro. last time thats what they said then charged me 150 dollars. the circut breaker is in the middle just like before. hopefully it will work cuase this time the clock and the tv dont work either. take care. katie
