Bob Welch’s My Oregon
I have not got my paws on a copy yet, but Register-Guard columnist (and author, speaker, and teacher) Bob Welch — ardent fan of the Exploding Whale and whose columns have made regular mention of it — has a new book out called My Oregon. Here’s Bob’s description:
A collection of 100-plus Register-Guard columns written from 1999 through last August. Sections on what makes Oregon Oregon, seasons, sports, coast, heroes, losses, personal and adventure, including, of course, the three-part elk-hunting series in which I was bucked off a tame horse named Rusty.
And I have it on good authority that our favorite Exploding Whale is covered. But of course!
For the time being, the book is only available via Bob’s website or in a few local/regional bookstores (see list on Bob’s site).

I picked up an autographed copy of Bob’s book this past weekend. Not sure when I’ll make time to read it, but I’ll post a review when I do!
