Hi, Dana!

I read The Deerslayer a few months ago, and enjoyed reading it. But I still don't see Natty as "my" hero. Too talky for me. What I loved most about the book are the descriptions of the land & lake. I could just see the Glimmerglass, and the wonderful abode in the center of it. I want to live in a house like that...except for I want mine to have hot & cold running water, electric lights, and a microwave! ;o)

I'm glad you are enjoying the book. Miss Gaylee must be in 7th Heaven! When you guys are ready to start LOTM, I'll start with you.
