I’ll talk trails, sign books at upcoming Maine Outdoor Adventure Club event. I’ll be giving a slide show presentation on Maine hiking trails at this month’s Maine Outdoor Adventure Club general meeting, which is open to the public and starts at 7 p.m.
Wednesday, Dec. 6, at Allen Avenue Unitarian Universalist Church, 524 Allen Ave Extension in Portland. The event is free, and it’s a great opportunity to learn more about MOAC, which organizes events and group outdoor adventures year round. In fact, in October alone, the organization hosted 13 group hikes, nine group bikes, four paddles and seven social events. In addition to talking about my adventures on Maine trails, I’ll be selling and signing my new guidebook, “Family Friendly Hikes in Maine,” published by Down East Books in collaboration with the BDN this past spring. (I can only take cash or checks, and they’re $16.95 each.)
If you’ve seen me present before, this is going to be a brand new presentation. “How many trails are there in Maine? Oreo and me hiking Yes, I’m coming out with a second book!

Only snakes, crocs, TB, cholera, malaria, parasitic worms and ridicule from their Dayak guides stood between them and their hunt for a rare albino rhinoceros.
It's executed with Pythonesque drollery. "Pick up one of O'Hanlon's books, and you're on an expedition with the wittiest writer-cum-explorer-cum-naturalist on the planet," says Carmichael.
