I'm baaaaack!!! And my WINNER IS...

Wow, guys... what a vacation. And you know you've had a great one when you don't even mind coming home because you're sooo exhausted.

I promise in the next few days to post some pictures, especially one of me being chummy with a certain adorable mouse. But I do believe I have a promise to keep!

Many of you know about my Where in the World is Marie Hall 7 day trivia game. I cannot believe how many of you figured out that scrambled word. I would have been hopeless, but I'm impressed and a little bit in awe of my readers. ;)

So I promise once I'm done trying to settle back in there will be stories. Such as my one celebrity sighting, the gag inducing life vest we were forced to wear on Bass lake that smelled so rotten it caused a certain member of my family to literally pass out into the lake. A little thing my oldest child dubbed penni gate...lol. Great memories though, all of them. :)

For now though I have a winner to announce. Unbelievably there was only one person who answered each question correctly and answered from question 1 to question 7. That person is........


JESSICA BOLDUC!! Congrats. Below is a picture of the actual sterling silver mickey bracelet. I think it's just gorgeous, and I managed to refrain from wearing it. Barely. :p

So now all I need from you Jessica is to please contact me at mariehallwrites@gmail.com and send me the address you'd like this bracelet shipped off to. :)
 
Thank you to everyone else who participated and played along with my silly, little game!
 
Happy reading,

Question #6: Where in the World is Marie Hall???

Coming to the end of this fun game, so now the questions are going to get a touch harder because I have to have a winner after all. :) Although knowing you guys, you'll guess this in a nanosecond just as you have everything else. *g* So here goes:

This community grew up around the newly created Lake Reservoir that supplied the first hydroelectric generating project

Vacation Update

Wow, you guys are amazing guessers! We've been having a ball on this vacation, but I'll admit, I'm having the most fun at Disneyland. Today is the last day here and I'm exhausted, sad, kind of okay (because my legs are killing me after so much walking the last two weeks), but most of all I'm having a ball.

I've actually got some pictures to share when I get back home, yeah, miracle. You know me and pics. But one of those pictures are the prizes you all are working so hard for. :) A sterling silver bracelet with charm. Now, this isn't quite the same bracelet, I'll be able to post the proper one when I get home, but it's similar. However, instead of the charm with mickey's ears looking that way, there is a mother of pearl backdrop and a small silver mickey ears sitting on it. It's beautiful! Oh, and the link may say this is a cheapskate bracelet, but I swear I didn't pay a nickel for it. :p LOL.

PS... yesterday in the animation studio I took a test to determine which disney character I'm most like. You'll never guess, but suffice it to say it was quite ironic. Alice, from Alice in Wonderland. :p I loved that!
