Vicki Retzlaff of the Grant County Library and Ginger Fouse of the Grant County Museum hosted a book signing on Saturday, June 29th at the Grant County Courthouse in Hyannis, Nebraska. We met several ranchers who already owned the book, but were purchasing copies for others, and heard memorable Sand Hills stories. Later we attended our first Ranch Rodeo at the Grant County Fair Grounds.
Nicole Hoffman and the Mullen Arts Center hosted a book talk/signing in Mullen, Nebraska, on the afternoon of Sunday, June 30th. Nicole organized the event and rounded up an attentive audience.
