Mailbox Monday

Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday! MM was created by Marcia, who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring event (details here).

Suko's Notebook is hosting in December. Please visit her lovely and thoughtful blog.

I got one very beautiful and wonderful book last week from the OSU Press.



Walking Distance: Extraordinary Hikes for Ordinary People by Robert and Martha Manning.

This is a terrific book! It is oversized and full of gorgeous pictures of hiking trails all over the world. There are descriptions of the hikes and the amenities (or lack of) along the routes. It is the perfect combination of practical guide and inspiration.

This would be a first-rate gift for any hiker or arm-chair traveler!
