Hi, Pat...Gayle would be proud of BOTH of us...I'm now halfway through Deerslayer, too. I love the descriptions of the country and the Glimmerglass, but I just want to smack Chatty Natty up beside the head now and again. Geez, didn't Cooper understand that he could just explain to us what Natty was thinking once in awhile, without ALWAYS making it a soliloquy?? I'm wondering how the heck Natty ever earned his reputation as a deerslayer...talking aloud to himself all the time ought to have scared off every deer within miles!! But overall, I AM enjoying the book. I just try to pretend he's not jabbering so blamed much.
