Sorry to brag but...

[hewunch]

I won! I took 6 pens to our state fair. Because there is not a "pen" category I was able to enter into 6 different categories. I got 4 first places and 2 second places :biggrin:

When I go on Friday I will post pictures. Color me happy :biggrin:

BTW, this way I get paid for a pen and get to keep it too :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
