You thought we were going to spill the beans on Tuesday?
Not a chance.
But check out the Dec. 23 edition in PDF form online Friday at www.dallasnews.com/mycommunity/richardson or in print on Saturday in home-subscriber copies of The Dallas Morning News to see the results of one of the most competitive Neighbors cover photo contests yet.
