Last spring, the sport optics division of Pentax was running a contest/drawing for all of their binocular dealers and customers purchasing certain models of their products. The grand prize for this
Sail Away promotion was a trip for two to Costa Rica and Panama. I was randomly selected among all the nationwide entrants as the grand prize winner of this contest and will be flying to Costa Rica with my wife tomorrow afternoon! We are excited, to say the least.
If you are curious, here is a description of our
cruise.
Though there won't be much going on here at 600 birds for the time being, I'll be sure to have lots of stories photos to share when I return mid-November.

Wow Ben, that is WONDERFUL! You and your wife must feel so elated - what an awesome trip to go on....for FREE!!!
I used to live in WI. so I know what the weather is like...you guys are probably due for snow about now. Oh well, you won't notice - you'll be basking in the tropical sun!
Enjoy every minute of it and I hope you can add some birds to your life list!
Congrats! Ben
