Soul of the Outdoors w/ Dave Greschner

It takes years to learn the art of seeing, of expecting to see nature's gifts. In Soul of the Outdoors, Dave Greschner passes that art along. He tells how little that chickadee at the feeder weighs, how tree buds survive in winter, how far a fisher leaps, and what the six blobs of shadows are on the creek bed below a water strider. He traces the cycle of seasons, immersing us in spring hikes to the marshes of emerging frogs and returning birds, summer's coolness along the trout stream, a forgotten apple tree in autumn, and a full moon snowshoe hike in winter. With humor and heart, Soul of the Outdoors treks along the trails of the author's outdoor adventures and, ultimately, the trails of our lives.

Join Wisconsin author, Dave Greschner, as he discusses his book, Soul of the Outdoors. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing.

Dave Greschner's childhood in rural northwest Wisconsin shaped his early love of all things outdoors, and his desire and need to pursue those paths in daily recreation and exploration. A degree in journalism from UW-Eau Claire led to a newspaper career of outdoor writing. New adventures and outlooks came with each story, always against a backdrop of the woods and fields of his youth. He continues to explore.
