The Monday Muse: Good Times at the Lincoln, NH Book Signing

We gave a talk last Saturday evening at the Father Roger Bilodeau Community Center in Lincoln, NH.  Steve and Carol Smith from The Mountain Wanderer Map and Book Shop hosted the event, as did Carol Riley of the Lincoln Public Library.  It was a full house -- many thanks to Steve, Carol and Carol for hosting us!

It was such a pleasure to meet so many new faces -- and to greet so many familiar ones!  This year's Girls of Summer were there; we loved speaking with so many enthusiastic and adventurous young women!  The Girls of Summer are a local group of teenage girls who spend their summers hiking and exploring the great outdoors.  We wish them well in their endeavors.

There were a lot of NH hikers in attendance.  Thanks for coming out, folks.  You're the ones who have known me for years as a hiker and a mom.  You're the ones who have provided such encouragement to me and the girls.  Thanks again for showing your support.  I am fortunate to know you.

Congratulations once again to Steve Smith for his redlining achievement (as well as his countless other hiking feats)!

Hope to see you on the trails soon.

Our next book signing will be at the Bethlehem Public Library in Bethlehem, NH at 1pm on May 19.
