The 10,000 Steps Straight Up book shows up on the Tattered Cover Book Store website. How did that happen?
Library of Congress
What are we doing? We just sent a copy of our book to the Library of Congress. This is part of the agreement we made when we ordered and paid for a Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN). If you hope to have libraries carry your book, you must have this number.
We envision our book being carted in a crated box to be one of millions of crates in a warehouse, much like 'THAT' scene in Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark!
Barnes and Noble - Did Not See This Coming
Our book shows up on the Barnes and Noble website:

Book Launch at the Colorado Cherry Company
From 4 - 7 pm, we held our book launch and book signing event at the Colorado Cherry Company:
It was a great turnout with a lot of friends! Partway through the evening a snow storm blew in like crazy! We had to go into 4-wheel drive to get home, one half mile away! It's a good thing that we limited invitations mostly to local people because of limited facility size.
A grand thank you to the friends who could make it and a hearty thank you to the Colorado Cherry Company for hosting us and providing coffee and cookies! 'Twas a success and a very happy memory!

Book Released!
Today is the official book release date! What a learning process this has been! We ordered advertising for our book from IngramSpark, but this won't be sent to their distributors until May 2016! Even in our high-tech world, things sometimes move slowly.
While this is an amazing accomplishment, there is much yet to do! Just for this book.
Secret Chapter
We've been busy writing, doing more edits and ended up writing another chapter. This chapter is not to be included in the first edition of 10,000 Steps Straight Up!
Instead, we posted our secret chapter on the Sacred Mountain Odysseys website on a hidden page. The URL to this page is in the back of the book!
