100 Blog Posts!!!

I've reached a milestone here at Found on the Trail.  I've written 100 posts!  Sing!  Shout!  Dance in the streets!

Mr. Robin adds his jubilant voice to the celebration!

In honor of this milestone, and out of gratitude, I am offering a free gift to one of you lucky, lucky readers!!!

Here's how it works.  I will present ten quiz questions below, based on information I've shared in Found on the Trail.  Each reader should submit his or her answers to me, by email.  I will give you one week to complete this task, as some readers do not stop by every day.  Once the deadline is past, I will examine all of your answers.  The person with the highest score will win a prize.  If there is a tie, then one winner will be selected at random from those among that group.

And what is the prize?  The winner will receive five free note cards, with the picture or pictures of their choice selected from the photos published here at Found on the Trail.  Awesome, I know!  :)

The quiz questions await you, below.  Most of the questions are based on the last twenty-five posts.  Remember that  many posts have category labels on them.  This may help you in going back to look up answers.

Please send your submissions to sloughsleuth@gmail.com .

Make comments or ask questions by posting comments to this post, but please send your actual answers to my email.  Thanks!

Thank you for your loyal readership, wonderful comments, and great feedback.  I hope you will continue to read Found on the Trail for a long time to come.  You have made writing this blog so much more fun and enjoyable for me.

Sincerely,
Demeter (aka The Slough Sleuth)
