Kelly Rysten

Geocaching (jee-oh-kash-ing) noun. The act of using a GPS receiver to locate hidden containers. A hobby, similar to a treasure hunt, using technological advancements to guide the way. Using military satellites to find cheap toys and trinkets. A hobby in which people accidentally find beauty, adventure, and sometimes love while purposely searching for containers hidden in odd places. Gwendolyn Amelia Brody is about to learn exactly what geocaching is. And Tony Van Yancy is just the right man to teach her. About the Author: Kelly Rysten has been geocaching since 2010 and has accumulated over 2,200 finds. Although that is not many in geocaching terms, she and her husband have learned that it is the journey and not the numbers that count. Many of the caches in this book are inspired by geocaches she has found in real life. She has seen countless roads, forests, odd rocks and trees, mine tunnels, and yes, even dragon houses because of geocaching. TSPI and Rysten have left their mark in geocache logs all over the southwest United States and look forward to many years of tromping around interesting places in search of hidden containers. Kelly is also the author of the Cassidy Callahan Adventure Novels and is a frequent contributor to FTF Geocacher Magazine.

Beginnings

Edward Galluzzi

Beginnings is based on the lives of Greg and Charly that propels the reader on an emotional roller coaster, as events unfold in their lives, including the more absurd and humorous aspects of life. Beginnings traverses the singledom lives of Greg and Charly and what brings them together. The global benchmarks that help define them and a people unfold for each decade of their lives. We all encounter collectively many beginnings and beginnings of the end. We share them for they are part of what we call the human condition. Greg and Charly experience many beginnings and beginnings of the end—some predictable, some unexpected. Some beginnings are critical moments in our lives as they forever change us for better or worse—they bring us together or tear us apart. They are intimately tied to human relationships as they strengthen or weaken the stuff that binds us. The beginnings that impact on Greg and Charly unfold in the pages to come. Yet, these are not necessarily unique experiences and readers will relate to their own beginnings and beginnings of the end. However, I am getting ahead of myself. I would like to tell about the circumstances of my world just before my beginning and the woman of my life, Charly… About the Author: In addition to Beginnings and Mirror, Mirror at 1600 D.C., Edward Galluzzi has also authored the following works which are soon to be published by CCB Publishing: Side Stepping the Rules and Twelve Upon A Time.
