buy one for yourself and one for a friend November 18, 2008 pebblepuppy (Missouri) It was more than I expected. Not only did it have lots of good tips for creating my own outpost, it had great stories about strong women. It's a great coffee table book too. It's tempting to pick up and hard to put down. br /The photographs are a bonus.

What a wonderful book If you love being outside, this is a must read for you. I love the outdoors, but live in a small city, I will bring the outdoors to my backyard with all the great ideas. It just gives you such a warm cozy feeling reading this book. What to read more!!!
Children everywhere September 18, 2008 Carmen Iris (Little Falls, MN USA) I am a fan of MaryJane and a Farmgirl. I have all her books and I love them. My problem with this one is the excessive focus on children. If I had wanted a book on activities for children, I would have looked for a book on the subject. There are many things I love but that ruined it for me.

This is a true story. I was in a bookstore looking in the "Antique Price br /Guide" section when I came across THIS book! Now whether it was MISHELVED, br /MISPLACED or someone had stashed it there.. to come back later and buy.. br /I WAS SOOO GLAD IT WAS THERE! I spent the next 4 1/2 hours (!!) reading br /this one-of-a kind gem! I never met anyone quite like this author. BUT br /I sure would like to! She takes you on a journey to another place and time br /..and shows you how THEN could be NOW. She entrances with her down home br /wisdom and bit's of her life story. I really NEVER felt the 4 1/2 hours br /go by.( Perhaps it was a "out of body" experience? If so I want to go back!!)This book made me enchanted and giddy. It made me yearn to go horseback riding again. In short it made me want to rediscover myself. br / Now I would have stayed there longer reading it, but alas they had to close! READ THIS BOOK. Get back in touch with the things that matter. br /WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL BOOK!
I LOVE this book!! July 2, 2008 Aunt Jenny (Utah) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Oh my..this may be my favorite of MaryJane's books yet..and I love them all. Just the most fun, informative and beautiful ideas! I love that it has so many ideas for enjoying the outdoors with my kids and for making my own backyard a outdoor "fun zone". The recipes, ideas and projects are just wonderful...can't wait to try them all!! br /I am SO glad I got this book right away...LOVE IT!!!!
