I finished Lost in the Wild and sent it on to someone else. What a fantastic way to share books with people who have so much in common! It says alot about the type of people who frequent this site when you can send something to a total stranger and know, that at some point, you'll get your property back!!

That said, I would like to offer one of my books. It's Root Beer Lady - the story of Dorothy Molter.

Let's do this the same way that Lost in the Wild is going around. When you finish it, seek out someone else who would like to read it. Also, leave a little note on the inside covers - preferably on a sticky-note but I wouldn't care if you write right on the inside cover.

Other than that, please treat the book as if it is yours. I'd like to be able to read it again someday.

Who's first??

Steve

Steve...I would love to read your book re: the Root Bear lady...my son and I are planning a bw trip in late July and early Aug. and her Knife Lake island is one of our day trip destinations. How do I get you my snail mail address? email? Thanks...and let me know. Bob

Steve, be careful not to get caught sending that book to rojoyo. He lives in Ky and there are some hefty fines imposed for importing books there!

That's true...we only have three in the whole state...but that's only because we had to give our coloring books to those folks in Ohio to use...the fewer the words the better. Too funny...good thread.

RoJoYo,
I would like to request the book after you. Send me an email when you are finished with it (in our member directory) and I will send you the address.
Thanks Bloomingtonsteve for starting this book.
Boppa

Hi Boppa, I'd like to be in line next behind you. Steve thanks for putting the book up. This is a great idea! --Paul

Hi Steve,

I received the other book today. I was thinking that we should start another book on the rounds, but could not think of which one. Good choice.

Cheers,

Grizzlygator

Great!

It'll go to RoJoYo first!
I'm glad to see that there is enthusiasm to read this book too!

I have a copy of the Root Beer Lady also. I can also share it if you like and it doesn't create a problem with 2 copies going around. I wish I had read it before our last trip since we stopped at her island. it is a good quick read.

Awright fer yew, RoJoYo. I resemble that remark!!

FYI - I received the "Root Beer Lady" in the mail today. Will be a quick read and will pass it on soon.

RoJoYo, when your done I would like to read it, then pass it on.

From the order of things above in the thread...looks like Boppa is next in the queue. Bob

Opps, sorry. Boppa if you would let me know when your done with it that would be great.

PolishPaddler, no problem. Once I have it, I will read it quickly and send it to. Feel free to email me your address.
Boppa

Rick....I'm done with "Root Beer Lady". I sent you an email so, email me your snail mail address and I'll try to get it out and in the mail tomorrow. RoJoYo Bob

RoJoYo, sorry for the delay in getting you my address. I have been away for a few days - I have sent it to you.
Boppa

Going to Knife for the first time with three other Dads and four 8-9 year old boys in June. I would love to share with them the Dorothy Molter story. If I can, I would love to get in line to pass it on. Thanks.

Boppa...the book is on its way. Enjoy. I guess it becomes your job also to look up into the thread and to see who is in line for it next. RoJoYo Bob

I have lost track of where I was in this thread. I thought I was up after Boppa but it sounds like someone else is ahead of me. So, I am up for the next copy available. Thanks, Kanot

Whoops, Kanot, my error, you are indeed next in line once I have it and read it, it will be sent to you. PolishPaddler may be next. Sorry for the confusion.
Boppa

Hi Boppa, No problem. I was not sure where I was in the thread anyway with all of the requests going out. Looking forward to reading this. I will forward to PolishPaddler after I am done? Best, Kanot

Kanot, I will send you my address to send it to. From what I can tell in the thread it is:

Kanot
Myself (PolishPaddler)
Jjmonk

Hey everyone...glad to see Dorothy is still making the rounds. So...who has her now?

Just wondering.

Steve

Hi Bloomingtonsteve,
Book was just sent to Kanot, thanks again for making it available. I enjoyed it very much and now realize that Knife Lake will be a trip to make in our future.

Please send the book back to me ASAP. There's a neighbor who'd really like to read it in the next month.

I finished Root Beer Lady Bloomington Steve, would you like me to send it back to you or pass it on the the next and last person in line Jjmonk? I know that you said you want it back for a neighbor.

Let me know.
