4/26/2008 - CART welcomes Glenn Hankett - Lakes to Mountains Tour
May 8th 7-9 PM at the Columbus Public Library (BIO)
The inveterate author-adventurer Glen Hanket is preparing once again to put his two wheels on the road, traveling across the land, speaking to students and adults about the country, the environment, and pursuing their dreams, and he'll be stopping in Columbus to share his adventure with us.
This year's three-week trek takes him from Chicago to Denver, through the upper Midwest of the Wisconsin Dells and southern Minnesota, and along the pioneer's road of the North Platte River.
Glen told the story of his cross-country 'honeymoon' walk in his first book, Underwear by the Roadside. (The title refers to the unusual trash he picked up in every state except Kansas.) As the LA Times said, "The author's straightforward prose and heartfelt appreciation of life's simple joys separate this tome from the weaker examples of this genre that litter bookshelves."
