We have a winner!

Rossie Ruiz, one of the contestants in last week's Vizcaya Halloween contest, has won two tickets for the Vizcaya Halloween Bash on October 30. Everyone was asked to send us their list of the Peacock locations around Coconut Grove. She sent in 10 locations. Two I am not sure of but even so, the nearest competitor only sent in seven locations, so if this list is whittled down to eight locations, Rossie is still the winner.

Above is "Munroe," by artist Deborah Starbuck, being unveiled at The Cloisters in July 2010.

These are the locations she sent in:

Peacock 1 - Ewm Realty at Franklin and Main Highway
Peacock 2 - State Farm on Commodore Plaza
Peacock 3 - The Cloisters
Peacock 4 - Mayfair Center 2911 Grand Avenue
Peacock 5 - St. Stephen's at McFarlane entrance
Peacock 6 - The Fresh Market
Peacock 7 - Shell Lumber
Peacock 8 - Coconut Grove Hampton Inn.
Peacock 9 - Milam's market
Peacock 10 - Village West at The Collaborative office

I question whether the Cloisters peacock is still there and also the one that was at Shell Lumber. But again, she had enough to fairly win the contest.
