From front page: (could someone add pic for me please - pic challenged I am)

"VFK Columbus Day Mini-Quest!
7:00 A.M. Pacific Time Monday, October 11th, 2010 to 10:00 P.M. Pacific Time Tuesday, October 12th, 2010.

 
Today is Columbus Day! Columbus Day has been observed each year since 1920. In 1937, President Franklin Roosevelt declared October 12th as Columbus Day and in 1971, Congress set the second Monday of October as Columbus Day and proclaimed it a national holiday! The Americas as well as Spain celebrate the anniversary of Christopher Columbus landing in the Americas in 1492. On our quest today, we will take a brief look at the interesting history of Christopher Columbus!

Your reward for completing this quest will be 1,000 credits, and Columbus Day 2010 Pin! "

Just a side note:  wasn't it last year we also won ship in bottles from the Space Pirate game?  Will have to keep checking perhaps to see if they do the same this year.

Thank you for the heads up!

Been at the pumpkin patch all day.  Although, it doesn't really feel like Fall, it's still 85 degrees here!   :heat:

Ewww is right! I started to work outside in the yard and thought "it's too darn hot and the mosquitoes were biting" - no wonder I thought it was hot!  Needless to say, I quit outside stuff and went in the cool basement to "dead" a HUGE spider and clean some stuff down there!
