Aloha! and Winners’ From Last Week’s Contest
Hello Bergsma Friends,
I am in Hawaii (Oahu) this week enjoying a much needed holiday with my daughters. Here I am with Sky on our first night. We are at the restaurant at The Turtle Bay Resort.
I know all of you want to know the results of last week’s contest. I’ll tell you first about each location and then I’ll let you know who won.
I zoomed in on the photo of my research from the previous blog (Sorry it’s a bit fuzzy). This shows you a close up of the first location.
This is of Yellowstone Falls in Wyoming. I will be there for a signing this summer during the weekend of July 17th.
This is the Badlands of South Dakota.
This is Delicate Arch in Arches National Park, Utah.
Congratulations Phyllis Maclaun and Lynn Curtiss for getting all of them exactly right! You will be receiving a signed print of each location once they are finished. I will have these painted in approximately a month’s time.
The following Bergsma Friends will be receiving a print for each correct guess:
Lorrie Scott
Vikki Jackson
Kathy Haskew
Kris Rozelle
I leave you this week with some inspirations from Hawaii.
This photo is of Jessi and Sky. Jessi just returned from almost year’s journey. We picked her up in Oahu from her flight from New Zealand.
We got together for a fantastic rendezvous in one of the most beautiful places in America.
Here we are on Sunset Beach! “Wish You Were Here”
Hey Readers, this is Heather. Jody dictated this blog post to me from Turtle Bay Cove, in her swimsuit, on her IPhone. Don’t you just love technology?!
Have a gorgeous weekend,
Jody (Heather)











What a surprise to see I got some of the locations correct in the lastest contest. I made them casually while we awaited word on a new job for my husband. Now I feel like I am sitting in one, or more of your works of art. We have lived in the Federal Way/Auburn area for 33 years and now we are on the water in Kingston. Only one week and I have seen raccoons (a personal favorite), seals,sea lions, bald eagles, dolphins, and deer. It is easy to run from task to task and forget how beutiful this world is. Now, where should I hang these Bergsma prints? Must find just the right place.

Congratulations Lorrie!
Yes, you will be getting your print when I get it painted. Enjoy your new view from where you set your computer and congrats to your husband for his new job.

Thanks! I was in your gallery Friday, and had not yet seen this post! I thought that I could save you some postage, but learned you are still painting it. What nice staff you have. I was shown pieces in progress which I was in awe of and honored to see. I picked up a gift for a cousin’s daughter who graduates next weekend. She has Down Syndrome, and was just Prom Queen in her class of only 7 kids. She will love her gift as she has heard all about you from me!
