What a terrific book! Gloria provides links that will help you find shows, shops, guilds. She has information on museums, festivals, retreat, cruises, hotels, airplanes, trains, weather, maps, discounts, tourism. Whew! Understand that URLs come and go as quickly as the daffodils of spring. The lead time for a book makes it inevitable that you will find some bad links. There are so many, you won't miss those few that have disappeared.
