February 28, 2006 - A Spartanburg woman has won four million dollars in the Georgia Lottery's Lotto South and says she'll keep working, though she is planning a long vacation with her husband.

54-year-old Janice Davis was announced Monday night as the winner in the January 18th drawing. She says she was giving a manicure when she discovered she'd won.

Davis says she gave a friend who often travels to Georgia money and he bought the ticket for her at Dad's Restaurant in Lavonia, Georgia.

She says she had forgotten about the ticket until she talked with her son a week later.

Davis says other than the vacation with her husband of 36 years, Joe, she doesn't know what she'll do with the money.
