One great way we boomers can enjoy life is to be inspired by a book that is filled with heart, connection to others and love for our country. Our guest has penned just such a book. Heidi Beierle, a feisty young woman who was always up for a challenge, had just finished her first year of graduate studies in community and regional planning. So, as a unique way to supplement her studies, she decided to pedal her bicycle (going solo no less) from her home on the West Coast across rural America to the ?Preserving the Historic Road? conference in Washington, D.C. Obviously, this is a choice not all of us would have made. Yet, Heidi's adventure brought her many newly formed, but rich relationships, enhanced her sense of self and wellbeing, and transformed her outlook on life. The title of her book is Heidi Across America: One Woman's Journey on a Bicycle Through the Heartland and it's a story you will long remember. So, if you enjoy a great read that is both uplifting and inspiring, you won't want to miss this show!
