This
month, we celebrate twenty years of Backpackville.
On
February 28th, Bob released his latest: Suspiciouly Picturesque.
Seventy-one
essays on its pages -- the most in any collection to date. Most
are drawn from material posted on the website between March
2003 and March 2022. Six were created exclusively for this title.
Dive
in and enjoy as Bob lifts the cover on the obvious, providing
his usual unusual observations on Niagara Falls, turtles, salt,
birds celebrating anniversaries, and the monkey that did the
job before him.
(Yes.
Turtles.)
Suspiciously
Picturesque is out in print and Kindle editions, and is
available now at many of your favorite online booksellers. For
more right now:

All
of Bob's published titles are available in print and Kindle editions.
And the first twelve of them are available for Kindle and the

side note... all of Bob's books are also part of the Kindle Unlimited

As
a bit of a bonus, there are a couple of pages over at Facebook
that we'd like to nod in the direction of...
Time
Just Drifts Away -- A page at Facebook
for Bob's published and professional writing efforts.
Muddy
Paws and Puppy Love -- A fun page on
Facebook where we celebrate Lady, Travis, Molly and Gus... along
with their friends (and ours).
We
would be incredibly grateful if you took a few minutes to check
out some of these pages. (And if you have a Facebook and/or Twitter
account, our on-going appreciation and ever-lasting gratitude
goes along with every "Like"
or "Follow" you add. (So
you'll have that going for you.))
(Thank
you!)
