The New Book, finally: Natural Treasures of Chatham-Kent

 Just a short post to announce that Natural Treasures of Chatham-Kent is finally done! 

I picked up the first few boxes from the printer last week, and am now in the process of getting it distributed to prospective sales outlets. I expect it will be available at the same outlets as Life On A Sandspit is, plus a few more, since it likely has a wider interest to residents of Chatham-Kent and beyond.

It is about 100 pages in length, with about 160 photos, and perhaps with the exception of one or two, all photos will be different than what is in Life on a Sandspit. It covers a broader range of habitats than just Rondeau, hence the increase in size.

After consulting with various folks, I have decided that it should sell for $39 compared to the $27 price for Life on a Sandspit. Some outlets may sell for less, which is entirely their choice. Some folks have said most assuredly that it should go for at least $45, but I would rather keep it a little less to make it more attractive than the higher price. I am not out to make much $$ from this project, but would like to cover some basic costs such as the actual printing.

At any rate, now you know. And if you want to get a little glimpse of some of the photos, check out this previous announcement, here.

 In other news, today May 5 is Rondeau's birthday. Rondeau is now 130 years old as a provincial park!

Happy Birthday to Rondeau!
