Laissez le bon temps rouler!

I have always looked back on my time as a river guide in Idaho as a great time in life in one of the superb spots on this planet. It wasn't just the river, it was the small forgotten towns with the Main Street cafe, it was the ranchers in their plaid shirts, it was the mountain passes and the old gravel roads. IT was the sense of history that you felt when stumbling upon an old long since abandoned cabin, knowing that someone had lived in that desolate spot a hundred years before you.

I got lucky and made it out of the Midwest and saw some of this first hand. It inspired this book. But I really hope you all can get out and see it for yourself.
