I have came a cross a couple of contest that were great that I didn't enter.<br /><br />The reason, I knew if by some miracle I won, I really couldn't accept the prize. In those cases, I don't think it's fair to enter. Case in point is the contest Judi Fennell is holding. Wonderful contest, but not able to get away even if I won so no reason to enter, but encourage others to do so.Mason Canyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10935307400882363560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-42368492597362075552009-12-09T05:32:02.344-05:002009-12-09T05:32:02.344-05:00Interesting post!
