2021 Traveling with Ann Calendar Contest

It’s calendar time again!

That’s right, it’s time to vote for your favorite photos to go into my 2021 Traveling with Ann calendar.

Check out the pictures below taken during my 2020 travels near and far (mostly “near” due to the darn virus) and chose TWO pictures as your favorites in the comments below (type the picture number). Votes will be tallied by December 1, 2020. I’ll share which winning photos had the most votes the following week.

NOTE–If you’ve never commented on one of my blog posts, your comment will appear AFTER I approve it behind the scenes (I have to keep those darn spammers out).

In addition, I’ll do a random drawing from those who voted in the comments below and choose some lucky winners for an autographed calendar! Be sure to check your email in mid-December to see if you receive a “Winner!” email from me.

Let the voting begin!   Ann
