Rockwall — Tosha Ridgeway is one of Oprah Winfrey's biggest fans. Her enthusiasm got her a ticket to Australia with the TV icon.
Ridgeway, a Rockwall High School teacher, recently got back from the trip Down Under, and looking at her classroom, that passion is evident. "I think what you put out there you get back," she said.
Ridgeway was one of 300 "ultimate" fans selected to go to Australia with the talk show host last month. It's a journey that began when Oprah Winfrey came to the State Fair of Texas.
