Fifty Sense Seal of Approval Still Living the Dream

Still Living a Dream

By Paralee Dawson-Hayward
http://www.outdoorhikerbooks.com/stld.html

We had the pleasure to meet and talk with Paralee at Trail Days in 2011. She states in the beginning of the book that this is not a "how to" book about long distance hiking, but we have to disagree. We found it had not only practical knowledge of how to plan, but references of older hikers, and she was not afraid to write about fears facing such a daunting goal.

Still Living a Dream is an adventure book about hikers along the Appalachian Trail. Experience the laughter, pain, trials and tribulations in this candid and engaging journal as each day takes the hikers closer to Katahdin in Maine.

Her positive, can do attitude is obvious throughout this enjoyable read. Paralee was 55 when she started her hike and exudes the energy of a 20 year old!
