I really don't know what to say except that I surely never expected to win the Grand Prize! Certainly not with all the outstanding entries submitted here at BP every month. The competition is very stiff and because of that I'm always happy just to see a finalist badge under my photo. I was stunned when I came home to open the email telling me about my win. When the email arrived, I was sitting in my dentist's chair having a root canal. So to come home to this awesome news made me completely forget about that ordeal. Thank you to those involved in the judging process and thanks to all of you wonderful BP members for stopping by to leave a message. I truly appreciate it! ..Terry
