THANK YOU to my fellow CBS SURVIVOR Castaway, Gillian Larsen, for inviting me to be a part of this and help give my grain of sand to "Michelle's Place," a very special Breast Cancer Resource Center. A few of us arrived the night before the event and gathered for dinner at the Pechanga Casino and Resort. Here I am w/fellow Reality Show gals: Below,an Autograph signing where I got to sit next to my SURVIVOR FIJI "Ravu" Tribe-member and Fan Favorite, Yau-Man to my left and, to my right, Godwin Cho, of the "Cho Brothers" Amazing Race Teams!

Here I am with my "twin" Julie Berry..She has NO idea the pressure I felt being compared to her!! An accomplished SURVIVOR Castaway herself, she was also Jeff Probst's girlfriend of several years.
Below a shot of about 1/3 of the group that participated in the "Temecula Reality Rally." If you're a Reality Show fan, you may recognize a few of the people in the photo. For example, sporting his signature bow-tie look, Mr. Bob Crowley, Winner of SURVIVOR Gabon. It took me awhile to place the man lying in front of everyone..besides being an "Amazing Race" participant w/his brother, Mark Munoz is the Jockey who rode the horse in the movie SECRETARIAT:) ![]() |
