Do you have a story you feel just has to be published? I am em”barking” on a new adventure that has me so excited I can hardly sit still. A short time back, I was approached by Dwight Brown, the sales/finance manager at DJ’s RV Sales in Bolivar, MO and Joanna Lucas, the owner, about the possibility of writing a book about camping and, more specifically, about camping with pets. I think I can do that! At least, it would be fun to give it a try, so this is what has been decided: they are commissioning me to write a book! They are providing a motor home for me and making reservations at their partnership campgrounds and various sites. Taffy, Phoenix and I have hit the road in a cloud of dust. Oh the joy of doing what I enjoy most; talking with people and traveling! I am interviewing campers to get their funny, exciting or scary camping stories, especially the ones that involve pets. I’m thinking I will even add a section in the book for good camping tips and tricks. If a story makes it into my book, the person who told it will get credit for it, so if you have a camping story that’s burning your brain, keep track of our adventures, meet us at a camp ground, and we’ll talk.
