I’m back home from vacation and eager to meet readers at this popular independent bookstore in Palmer, Alaska. Thanks for the invitation, Fireside! We certainly plan to see you Mat-Su Valley readers there–but even if you’re further south, just get in the car and drive. It’s going to be a beautiful day.
Can you believe it? Half of March has disappeared! The good news is, I have indelible memories of a lengthy road trip across the Lower 48 this winter. We traveled thousands of miles by RV along the Oregon coast, then down the California coast, and then we shot east across AZ and NM before landing for a couple of weeks in Texas, visiting friends and family all along the way. Were we warm? NOOO! The Polar Vortex dipped into the south to touch us in Texas. So unfair. The idea was to escape the cold. There were few moments of warmth as we drove the Minnie Winnie north through Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri, and into Indiana for more lovely times with family. Finally, we parked our trusty RV in Illinois and jumped on a plane out of O’Hare. I swear I had sea legs after all those weeks in motion. Back to good ol’ Anchorage.
Now I’m so looking forward to the March 29 signing, and more scheduled for April and May. I’ll keep you posted here and on Facebook. Come by. I love visiting with readers.
And now for some (hopefully) not too boring vacation pics!

Thanks, Mark and Michele!!
