**New - Outdoor Play ”Fun 4 4 Seasons” **


My latest book, Outdoor Play “Fun 4 4 Seasons”, is now available.   I use a four seasons of the year format to discover unique ways and resources to enjoy the outdoors.

Outdoor Play “Fun 4 4 Seasons” enthusiastically portrays a daily commitment to the outdoors for health and fitness. 
 
The book is full of short story adventures that give the reader an overview of multiple outdoor things to do.  My message is to get outdoors and do something.  The only competition you have is the task at hand.  Do not worry about reaching the top of the mountain - just concern yourself with staying on the path.

Outdoor Play “Fun 4  4 Seasons” starts with a process – How to be an Outdoor Enthusiast.  The middle chapters are the seasons of the year, Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter from my blog – Outdoor Enthusiast.


The Places to Play Northern New England chapter tells where to discover outdoor treasures.  New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont are emphasized for their unique outdoor offerings. The Northern Forest Canoe Trail, Great North Woods, Maine Island Trail, and the Appalachian Trail have references galore.

Chapters Outdoors as a Component of Daily Life and Eclectic Sharing provide unique tips and readings.  Campsite tips to cook an egg in an onion, canoeing and kayaking on exceptional waters, smart phone apps, giant pumpkin regattas, winter sleigh rides, triathlon clubs, sea kayaking, island camping, indoor bicycle training, axe throwing, and advice on preparing for the outdoors are amongst diverse stories shared.  Videos and action pictures proclaim the physical fitness and mental health impact of the outdoors.

The last chapter, The Beginning, is my personal story of how I went from a debilitating injury to a daily outdoor enthusiast.

The book relates how, where, and ways to make outdoor activity a “lifestyle for the long haul” regardless of age, limited time, family commitments, or knowledge of an activity. Order Outdoor Play "Fun 4 4 Seasons" at http://www.OutdoorSteve.com
