"Orion Sky" Print - A Memorial Day Giveaway

The Announcement
We've been at this blogging thing hot and heavy since October last year and we've not had a single giveaway for you, our fans, our readers. So here's the deal, just in time for Memorial Day, we're having a giveaway. Yes, you read that correctly, a giveaway.

Now you are wondering what it is we have decided to giveaway. Could it be some cool gear for the outdoor lover? You know a camp stove or a pair of trail shoes? Not quite, but you outdoor lovers will definitely be clamoring for it. You've been following along, reading our tales and living vicariously through our love of the Appalachian outdoors. Likewise, you've been ooohhhhing and aaaahhhhhing over the amazing photography that accompanies our posts, and if the title didn't give it away, then something is clearly wrong. LOL.

The Prize
What is it already? Okay okay, we have decided to give away an original Random Joy Fine Arts and Photography print. This is not some ordinary run-of-the-mill print. No, not by a long shot. This is one fandy-tastic 16x24 starry evening print titled "Orion Sky" (original photo below - print will not have watermark) and printed on Kodak Professional Metallic, archival quality paper taken by Random Joy Fine Arts and Photograpy (a.k.a. Robin). That's right folks, this is the kind of print that will have your friends green with envy and wondering where ever did you get your hands on such a fine quality shot.
