The Answer Is. . .

Hello!  I'm back from my junket to Western NY and although I had fun with family, it is good to be back in the warm South. (Although I'm hearing that the cold weather may have followed us!)  The location for our Flight Medic Challenge was ACADIA NATIONAL PARK near Bar Harbour, Maine.  No one guessed the location correctly, although some of you were close.  So I put our commenters' names in a bucket and drew one out and the winner of the SIX CUTTLEBUG PUMPKINS is "Opthalmologist."  Email us with your real name and snail mail address and I'll get those out to you right away so you can use them for your fall cards.  Thanks to all of you who stopped by and played the challenge.  I'm off to look at your creations! 

MEDICS ENROUTE!!!!

Note from our 911 Dispatcher:  "Our medics are on a special mojo mission this week. Can you guess where they are? Include your guess in the Comments section below! We’ll announce their location next week when we post a new challenge. Everyone with the correct location will be entered into a drawing for a set of 6 of the cuttlebug pumpkins in the sample card!  Sorry but Resq crew are ineligible!"

Flight Journal, [DATE] The flight up here from the heliport was pretty scenic at this time of year. The leaves are beginning to peak and the reds, yellows, and oranges along the ridges are really spectacular. We took off from the central heliport in downtown Manhattan around 2 PM and we were enjoying schooners of beer and fresh sweet and buttery treats on the wharf by 6:00! We’ve been looking forward to this pretty simple mission as we’re ready for some cooler weather and awesome scenery. I love the rocky coastline here and the winding road to the top of the mountain (with an automotive name) will provide the eyes with some pretty amazing leaf-popping. I just hope we don’t get behind a tourist bus! We’re hoping for a clear day atop the mountain as we’ve heard you can see foreign soil sometimes. This area is known for windstorms and even a hurricane on occasion and I’m sure we’ll think about Hurricane Bill’s recent pass-by and the tragedy here as we make our way to our mission. One thing for sure, when this mission is over, you can find us soaking up some sun lying on the grass near the pond and enjoying some of the famous tea and popovers in this beautiful spot, nationally preserved now, but long ago discovered by “Cajun” folk.

THE MOJO CHALLENGE
Our rescue plan is to reacquaint our client with the beauty of her surroundings. We’ll point out some of the natural elements that may serve to jumpstart her mojo. The REDS, YELLOWS, GOLDS, ORANGES, COPPERS, AND BROWNS alone should do the trick. We’ll suggest that she use a combination of at least THREE of these colors and utilize some ELEMENTS FROM NATURE in designing her card or scrapbook layout. The one stipulation we’ll insist on is that her design carry a CHEERFUL OR UPLIFTING SENTIMENT. If you’d like to help us with our mission, please provide us with a link to your creation in the Comments section. If you upload to an online gallery please use RESQ18 for your keyword, label, or tag!  Don't forget to guess the location!
