The holidays are over, and here in the Northeast, it’s time to settle in for the remaining cold months of the winter, which for many means time to snuggle up with a warm cup of something and read a good book.  I have a few in progress right now. It also can be a time [...]

I just finished reading an enchanting story written by James Andrew Bowen called “A Tree’s Christmas”.  Christmas comes and goes, and with it the events that make Christmas a time when families can seize moments to look deeper into the things of family life, and embrace all of the emotions that come with looking at [...]

I have had some time to travel through the mountain climbing skills of Don Mellor, and the camera lens of Olaf Soot and view the grandeur of 10,000 miles of mountain peaks that run from the Arctic to the Patagonia. As I traveled (from my comfortable couch in the living room) the visual experience was [...]

A while back I told you that I’d be reviewing the book, “Cole Family Christmas”. I spent time last week reading the 74 page book, and looking closely at the delightful illustrations, I couldn’t resist, the artwork is beautiful!

Today I’d like to introduce you to an eBook for those who have dreamed of publishing articles for magazines, or writing books, about travel. In my typically over-active imagination, I’ve always thought, wow, travel writers are as lucky as [...]

I have another delightful book to review! I can tell just by the cover, the illustrations, and the little bit that I’ve read on the dust jacket that I’m in for a treat!  So now I have two books to snuggle up with, hot cup of coffee in hand, and review – the one pictured [...]

A day or so ago I received a beautiful table top sized book with magnificent photography to review. On skimming through the pages, I can see that the photography is beautiful, and am looking forward to a little free time to take it in. The book is entitled “Alpine Americas, An Odyssey Along the Crest [...]

I am delighted to introduce you to a wonderful book entitled “Now You Know What I Know: Parenting Wisdom of a Grandmother”, written by Pat Montgomery, an exciting new author with an Erma Bombeck-like common sense style! Keep track of their movements. …Just as you get one off the top of the refrigerator (don’t ask), [...]
