Trip 4:August 7
The weather is still cool, but today it is splendidly sunny. So perfect for the planned outing to West Head, to enjoy the scenery and have a picnic.
Our drive took us north, and I was delighted beyond words to see that we were headed into Kuringai Chase National Park. Because of yesterday’s rain, the mountainous park was gloriously lush, and because it’s spring, wild flowers were blooming on all ha

Destination Heartland: A Guide to Discovering the Midwest's Remarkable Past:
"My opinion likely colored by my expectation that this was going to be more travel writing than travel guide. That said as a denizen of the Midwest whose spent no small amount of time at a number of the sites covered in the book, Cynthia nevertheless "

of
Destination Heartland: A Guide to Discovering the Midwest's Remarkable Past:
"This book was more than I expected. The author's love and enthusiasm for the Midwest comes out through the entire book. She explains why this area is important to explore and know its history. As she describes landmarks we can visit, she is detailed "

Greetings, Friends.My newest book -- Midwest Maize: How Corn Shaped the U.S. Heartland -- is now available for pre-order on Amazon. So far, it's getting great reviews. I think it's a lot more fun than the title might suggest. It's not only the history of corn but also the history of the settling of the Heartland, plus the history of cooking over the last 150 years, plus enough fun factoids to make for a lot of great party conversation. (Do you know the connection between corn and vampires? How about corn and the Chicago Bears?) So I hope you'll order the book -- and enjoy it. Thanks.
Just as an fyi, Waltzing Australia can now be found in just about every imaginable e-format at Smashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...However, on Amazon, it's still available in print, as well as in Kindle format.
Waltzing Australia is now available in Kindle format. From now until March 8, if you own a Kindle AND are an Amazon Prime member, you can check it out of the Kindle Owner's Library for free. Otherwise, both print and Kindle versions are available for sale on Amazon.
Looks like you're ready to tell everybody here at GoodReads about Australia! Good for You! Hope you share some pics too, if they have a way!Glenda
