News about Mousetoescamper!

I reached him this morning to see if he would be available to host next month's contest.

The short answer is: No. He recently moved; 2 weeks after the move, his car was stolen and trashed. And so on.

We had a great chat about our crazy lives! He sounds good even though his circumstances are less than optimal.

So. I need someone to run the photo contest in June.


I will support and give guidance to whoever takes it on. I have written notes that I will gladly share.

Let's do this!

I normally make the initial announcement near the first of the month. June 1st is a Monday.

If you want to, you could post it on the weekend prior--May 30 or 31st. There might be more traffic over the weekend. But that's up to you.

June is the seasonal contest for Spring! So nobody gets to choose the theme; it's built-in.

You know where to find me if you have any questions!
