Walk With Me: Discover Hoyt Arboretum in Portland, Oregon (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997756920)

This book grew out of the challenge of turning a hike in Portland's Hoyt Arboretum into an "Airbnb Experience." Intrigued by the concept, the idea was to offer a guided visit through the lovely 188 acre park that's less than a mile from downtown.But there was a catch. To be listed on Airbnb's website, it had to be a "life-changing" event. Locals have used the park's beautiful trails as an extended backyard since before WWII. Yet how many people ever take the time to look beneath the surface? If they did, they would find astonishing treasures hiding in plain sight. This book tells the story of a park whose trails reach across continents and traverse millions of years of history. It also serves as the script for the audiobook version, which will be available on Audible.com in early 2020.A photo slide show highlighting many of the park's best features can be seen here: https: //tinyurl.com/utc4xyz The Audible version as read by the author can guide you through the park with step-by-step directions Experience the delight of generations of visitors as the magic of the arboretum reveals itself to be the crown jewel of Portland's many parks. Let me share these discoveries with you, as well. Walk with me
