Have you looked at the Outdoors section of Bangor Daily News? I enjoy it a lot. John Holyoke tells some of the funniest stories there. He’s not afraid to share his antics and let us laugh with or at him. Aislinn’s hikes and tips are great. Erin writes about hunting with her dad. Jim is kayaking from Kittery to Fort Kent. It’s a great section. My blog, Robin’s Outdoors, started last Friday.

It’s a great opportunity to reach more readers. The new blog won’t replace this in any way. I’ll still be writing more personal things here. I’ve been quiet this week while I met more deadlines than I’m used to having, not because I’ll be writing less here.

Coming up: I’m visiting Frost Pond Camps on Friday and hope to come back with an announcement. I’ll be kayaking on the St. Croix river between Maine and New Brunswick, CA on Saturday. I’m meeting Melissa (sister) Sunday morning to drive to western Maine for my first and her second whitewater rafting trip. We’re rafting Monday morning. I’m trying to not think too much about the whitewater part of this adventure. I desperately want to stay in the raft. In between, I have stories to write for a guest appearance on Writers Forum on WERU with Ellie O’Leary this fall. I’m wicked excited about meeting my co-guest John Ford, author of Suddenly, The Cider Didn’t Taste So Good. I’ll have a review about the book soon.

I’m enjoying a rainy day today. We need the rain. It’s starting to clear off in spite of my pleas for more rain for the garden and well. June was very wet, July was very dry. I’m crossing my fingers for an August that’s just right.
