My Outdoor Idaho Life

 

This website will eventually go away. I built it to help keep things organized. The current title is My Outdoor Idaho Life. The subtitle eludes us at this time. Ideas?

You can assume that all of these chapters are DRAFTS... many less drafty than others. I'm trying to keep up with all the recent suggestions from friends. Thank you! I might not have all of the suggestions reflected yet in these chapters, but I am making sure that the very latest rewrites are on this website. 

The order of chapters you see here may not hold... except for the first three. They will remain the first three.  If you have some thoughts on the order, please let me know.  

My goal is to have the writing completed by mid-September and the photo choices by the end of September or mid-October.

For the finished book, the plan is to have color photos for each chapter. Photos would mostly be from other people: Tim Tower, Jim Hadley, Peter Morrill, Rick Gerrard, myself, and others.  I am receiving invaluable assistance from many friends, not only with photos and punctuation but with content as well. I realize how lucky I am. Writing is usually a much lonelier process.

The thing has 23 chapters completed. You should be able to reach them all. You can ignore the photos; they are merely placeholders. I have not posted the final chapter, "A Sense of Place." It's the 24th chapter. That I will post soon.

The goal is to have books in-hand for Idaho Public Television's March pledge drive. The fine folks at the station will produce an hour-long Outdoor Idaho program and will offer the book as one of the gifts. Several publishers have expressed some interest. I’ll post the latest news here.
