Guessing is closed and I'm working on the distances.

Congratulations to @ijn1944, who had the closest guess for Rarotonga with Christchurch NZ (2206 miles) and @kurdlezuit, who after that had the closest guess for Tahiti with Santa Rosa CA (4110 miles). I'm bummed that neither of you are CCF sponsors though.

Cool! I had a gut feeling you had passed through the southern hemisphere...somewhere.
DM coming.
I'm not a sponsor (yet). Living on a fixed income. I could always sell off my damaged Lincolns!

Congrats to the winners, and to @Spence for the milestone and an excellent contest! I figured you had to be somewhere overseas, since internet access is too easy in the USA to not post for 3 whole weeks. I just guessed the wrong part of the world. Looks like a pretty exciting vacation!

Spence's contest inspired me... not just for the potential extra prize, but it made me think how much I've learned here, and how much effort is put into maintaining this great forum! I for one would hate to see the forum go away, and I am grateful to all who support the forum, the members, and the hobby. Thanks!

I'm super glad to hear that @igwt! Glad to have you part of this forum.  Also, thx again to all who participated. This contest was fun to plan out (and the vacation wasn't too bad either...)
