National Geographic
I just recv'd my America's Historic trails.
I cant wait to hang out at the pool all weekend and read this book. The pics are so pretty.
Has anyone read this book ?

I just love the things national puts out.

Is that the regular magazine or a special one you had to order?

had to order it. It cost $17.75 but it looks like it well worth it.

So, who gets this magazine? My sister-in-law's brother was published in the July issue. Its an article about the sun, and that's all I know. Need to get to the library and check it out.

I love it. They cover some stuff that you'd never think was interesting. And of course, there's the one or two "Third World Gilrs Gone World" issues to look forward to.

Do you have a subscription, NIgal? Go check out his article. I don't know what its called, but it has some of his sketches of the sun.

No, it ran out a few months ago and I had to choose between it and Adventure so I went with the Adventure. I did find the article on their web site though…

Did he use a pen-name? It says "By Curt Suplee."

After a short, interesting article, they say, "Get the whole story in the pages of National Geographic magazine." At the given link they try to get one to subscribe. Here, "Taste this, but you have to buy the rest!"

Yeah, I just gotta get my butt to the library. I don't know whot he Curt guy is. As smart as Mark is, I don't think he'd have the common sense to come up with a pen name! LOL!

I read it. I think it's still in the magazine rack in the "library" here at the house. Good article.

Really? What was it about? All I know is that he studies the sun, (so does his wife. And he's a Michigan Tech graduate, so obviously he's smart. :)
