The Hometown Girl Wins


I just drew the lucky winner of my Father’s Day Giveaway - commenter #13, Julie from Pounding the Pavement, who is an Oregon State University fan. People, this was not staged, I really did a random draw! But this is the same Julie who is my good friend, about whom I just wrote that music article, and I can actually hand deliver her prize!

Julie, you will be receiving the Oregon State Beavers hat and pewter keychain.

Go visit Julie if you get a chance, she just opened up her own blog right after I posted that article about her, so I didn’t get a chance to tell you yet. Congratulations, Julie!

Debi still has her Father’s Day Giveaway open, so you can give it another shot over at Stroller Strides of Bend.

I gotta say, these Central Oregon bloggers are pretty impressive! I just met another one yesterday. Christy happened to be at the same homeschool swim group I attended, and I’d been reading her blog for a while (which I would direct you to except that she shut it down a while back), and had never met her. I’ve gotten used to introducing myself in my new social-media-fashion: “Hi, I’m Jen, from Diary of 1.” Just like when I first met MooBeeMa, PebbleChaser, and Mrs. Darling, it was like meeting up with an old friend.

    Julie, I’m hoping Cory doesn’t already have something like those - let me know.

    Tipper, I tried so hard to pick commenter #10 (You) out of the pile and it just didn’t happen! :-)

    Congratulations, Julie. Granted, not as good as a UW Huskies hat & key chain, but… ;-)
