Campfires Remembered - Tapa blanda

With a yearning for adventure, Dena Mercer and her daughter, Lori, packed up their horses, mules and McNab dog, Millie, and left their rural home in Exeter, California to move to the rugged high Sierra to cowboy and pack mules. Away from familiar luxuries and perceived necessities, this pair quickly learned how to work and thrive in a male-dominated backcountry environment that tests one's skills and stamina. The unexpected bonus was that these two also found their inner strength, a deep appreciation of the natural world, and a balance within their lives. From herding cows to replacing the bottom log on an old backcountry cowcamp cabin, "Campfires Remembered" is an autobiographical account of nearly twenty summer seasons of mountain life that few ever experience. Everyone that has ever ridden a horse, or wish that they had, will enjoy traveling with Dena through her lively stories of mountain adventure and fun. These stories will take you from your living room to a wilderness world that has changed little in the last one hundred years.
