        Blog Cabin VIP Vacation Giveaway

        Hi all,

        Who out there wouldn’t love to win a trip to Susan, VA, on the western Chesapeake, enjoy fine wine and food, tour our fabulous 2011 Blog Cabin and take in the sights and sounds of historic Williamsburg or Busch Gardens? Sounds like a dream getaway to me!

        Take some time over the next few weeks to help us pick the trip itinerary (you can vote up to 10 times per day) and then enter (once per day) for your chance to win the trip.

        Note to all: If you win the trip, you are still eligible to enter and win the home.

        2. Mary, I just want to thank DIY for doing a vacation weekend to the Blog Cabin again this year. It is such a bonus for everyone on the blog (and not on the blog) to have a chance to visit the Blog Cabin and surrounding area. The choices we are voting on are spectacular. Thanks again.

        3. Who says Mary doesn't view the blogs. That was a burning question here on the blogs she so promptly and gracefully answered. I don't know 'bout y'all but that's pretty exciting to be eligible to win both. Although, the odds of that happening are not to good. If I do happen to defy those astronomical odds I'll be sure spread the wealth. I'll leave the vacation to one of you die hard Virginians to tour my future home. But I never share my 'Lady!! ^_^

          • Kinda understand your feeling about not wanting to share THE "Lady." If I'm the winner, only close family and friends will experience my joy initially. BUT I'm thinking about "a blogger drawing," so another blogger can sample this wonderful gift during a 4-day weekend trip.

        4. Me too Carrie. We need a vacation most right now. B)

          • I know the feeling haven't been on vacation for a long time… much needed.

        5. Mary, I appreciate your answer regarding the eligbility of the winner of the vacation to also win the house. However, last year the House sweepstakes inluded the 90-day clause so the vacation winner was disqualified from winning the house also. Can we expect to see the rules changed this year for the house sweepstakes?

          After the bitterness and recriminations over the DH this year I foresee possible problems if the rules remain as they were for Blog Cabin 2010.

        7. thanks for answering that burning question, you would have been made to walk the plank had you not.
          Now …. back to that contest

        8. Yea!! I knew Mary would come through for us and clear up the misunderstanding about whether we could enter both the VIP Vacation Getaway AND enter to win the Blog Cabin. It's like two, yes two exciting contests in one!

          DBCoop on June 16, 2011 at 12:52 pm
        9. thank you Mary for clarifying that for us…now on to entering…

          maria_w_in_nj on June 16, 2011 at 12:58 pm
        10. Mistress Mary, we’re so contrary,
          See where these blog threads go?
          Either VIP Hotels, or a new home with Shells,
          And so our quandary did grow!.

          Thanks for ending our suffering, lol.
