Echo Faith - what a privilege being a finalist has been. I've met so many other great Gather members, and have come away with a renewed sense of optimism regarding my own efforts. Thanks for such a great experience!
Congratulations to all the finalists.
Yes, I will definitely write about the experience. You can count on that. I'm already researching restaurants and food to eat. No surprise there!
