I love where I live. A mountain in my back yard since birth. Mount Shasta of the Cascade Range is inspiring. Magic, mystery and majesty all radiate from this wonderful place. These sketches were created as a get well card for an ailing friend. But they were so fun to create I thought others might like to color them too. After viewing many of my photos I sketched the mountain and outlined with black pen. The finished product looked like a color book page. That is why it's called The Big Girl Colorbook.

In 1989 I started riding street motorcycles for pleasure. Then we traveled to the Sturgis Rally. Nothing has been the same since. I ride with my husband and good friends and sometimes another lady rider will tag along. This book is dedicated to them. My lady riding friends. My life would not be as full without them.
