Hi fellow SoWal gang members :wave:

We are pleased to announce that out of all the entries in the Cali Bamboo & Surfrider Green Home Challenge contest - our little Santa Rosa Beach, FL home made it into the top 10! :clap: This is a very exciting opportunity for us to represent our area - and to spread the word about clean energy alternatives.

Of course, I'm not trying to sway your vote or anything :roll: hee hee! (you'll see how absolutely fine the other 9 homes are - it isn't an easy choice)

We are #8 - John and Shirley L.

Thanks for reading this and who knows, maybe I'll be writing back saying Gidget goes to Malibu! :D

Gidget: You're doing awfully good in this contest on your own merits, but if you're really wanting to cinch this thing, you could think about offering free beer to all eligible voters. I'm just saying... :bicycle:

Big thanks Jenny and Mango! :D

We are in the lead but they are gaining on us.:eek: They saw that SoWal was busy this weekend voting and they are going to rally their troops and try to take the lead. We just won't let that happen! :dothewave:

Thanks again!!

LOL Jenny - MR Gidget :D :D

I sometimes refer to Mr Gidget/John as Moondoggie - that was Gidget's beau in the Gidget surfing movie w/Sandra Dee :wub:

Gidget,
I'm going to guess that there wouldn't be a problem with having this also posted under Nature and Environment - might pick up some viewers there who haven't yet seen it. We can all make sure to keep it "bumped up".

Just a thought. Good luck!

As long as I don't look like a forum hog lol! Great idea because lounge is only for those who sign on right?

Thanks for the support - the ones who were in #3 are now in second and are gaining fast!

Off to post in Nature and Environment.
