(Radio Iowa) – An eastern Iowa woman will always remember her getaway to the family’s cabin along the Mississippi River last weekend. The woman was one-million dollars richer when she returned to her Urbana home.  During her trip to the far corner of northeast Iowa, Karen Kramer stopped at a Harpers Ferry convenience store and bought a Mega Millions ticket for Tuesday night’s drawing. She spent ten dollars for five plays, one of which matched five of the six numbers drawn. Her winning numbers were: 9-22-39-41 and 54. She missed the Mega Ball, which was 19 with a Megaplier of 3.

The 60-year-old Kramer, who works as a para-educator for the Center Point-Urbana School District, claimed her winnings Thursday at the Iowa Lottery headquarters in Clive. Kramer’s ticket, along with another sold in West Virginia, were the only two in the country that won a one-million prize Tuesday night. According to lottery officials, one ticket for the BIG prize – an estimated 56-million-dollar jackpot – was sold in Illinois.

Kramer told Iowa Lottery officials that her and husband, Dave, plan invest the bulk of the winnings for retirement and pay some bills. She also wants to get a dog.
