I just returned from an amazing 10 days in Ireland, visiting my daughter who lives in Galway, and doing research for a future book series.  Although I’ve been to Ireland several times before, this trip was especially memorable because it was spent with the wonderful Delany family, who have become very special to our family.  The Irish are exceptionally warm and generous, and the Delany’s epitomized this in every way.  Our trip was all the more meaningful because they spent time with us and showed us Ireland from a completely different perspective.  We saw and did things we might never have done if they hadn’t been with us!

I had just finished the second book in the Glacier Creek series, and was in need of a vacation, and this trip was the perfect combination of relaxation and excitement.  I returned home three days ago, and started writing the third book in the Glacier Creek series, and am so excited to share these books with you!  I love hearing from my readers; your comments provide me with the motivation to keep writing, and I am so grateful for your support and encouragement!  To show you my appreciation, I am giving away two $10 Amazon gift cards to two randomly selected winners.  All you have to do is leave a comment and tell me your idea of a perfect vacation, whatever that might be!  Winners will be announced on Oct 10th!
