    Hi Kjersti,

    Thanks for the book. It looks to be an interesting read. I also appreciate the prompt delivery. I have a gift for you too.
    Please contact me.

    Here’s a wild idea: I’m running a contest on my site where I’ll give away 5 photo Cd disks of my photography. If you want, you could run the same contest here, and mention my url too. (www.about-albuquerquenm.com).
    This means contestants have multiple chances to win 2 disks. Hey I am in a giving mood, you could give away 10 of my Photo CD’s, all people have to do is enter for a chance to win. If you say yes to this scheme, I will mention our shared contest in all my blogs throughout January. Let me know. Mary MacIntyre
