From Wall Street to the Ozarks - Thanks to You!
Yes, we are the new owners of Mockingbird Bay Resort, on Norfork Lake in the Ozarks of northern Arkansas! Had it not been for you, and the fact that I stumbled on your book by accident, I'm not sure we would be living our dream life as resort owners today. It was your book that turned the tables in my mind, and made me begin to consider the resort business as a lifestyle and family-run venture. I enjoyed your book so much! It was one of those books where I dreaded to see the end coming. I periodically check to see if you've written a sequel! (My husband survived the WTC attackes of Sept.11th, but not the massive layoffs that followed, so rather than watch our savings continue to melt away, we researched this business and ultimately bought a lakeside resort. FROM WALL STREET TO THE OZARKS! We pinch ourselves everyday -- happy beyond what we could have expected.) Your book was just another piece of the master plan that helped guide our family toward a new way of life! Thank you.

I'm Living Your Dream Life
I loved the book. It was a very easy and entertaining read! I was interested in the ambition and accomplishments lived out by the author and her spouse. When you initially think of owning a small family owned resort in the Northwoods it sounds dreamy...this book put it in perspective! It is definetly alot of hard work and not as glamous as it sounds. The things that they went through over the course of several years was interesting and entertaining. I enjoyed every aspect of the book.
