Cool. Tell me where you found the page, how you found the page, or maybe where you left it for the next person to find. Even simple "Hi, I just found a page" comments are welcome; it's all good. Just go to that "POST NEW COMMENT" box you see below, and have at it.

I'm not going to collect any information, or make you sign up, or anything like that, but if you're interested in winning any of the prizes (free books, tee shirts, iTunes downloads), you'll at least need to leave an email address. If you don't, I have no way to contact you. Of course, if you sign up as a volunteer publicist, or sign in using your OpenID, you can add location information to the map, upload photos and videos, and generally conquer the world.

I Found Pages 253-254

As I sit in this quaint, well appointed rural public library in Mankato, Ks. there it is laid upon a beautifully Federalist style carved, circular, coffee table that includes four curved drawers as well. This large table is surrounded by four very comfortable real leather high back chairs; all in the center of this one room library. Upon this table is a 1987 revised addition of Treasures of the Smithsonian by Edwards Park. And upon this book, unassuming, lays the laminated pages 253-254 by T.L. Hines. There is a small, faintly colored yellow rubber band that connects this lamination to a bookmark size card entitled UNSEEN PAGES; which includes a miniature view of THE UN SEEN book jacket. Btw, if you surmised that I'm not from around these parts that would be one of the gospels’ truths. Actually, I live in Shawnee Mission, Ks. which is a metropolitan suburb of Kansas City Mo. But that's an entirely other story. This Norman Rockwell meets Will Rogers Midwest town, is in the upper northern central locale of this bountiful Wheat State; approximately 300 miles +/- depending how the pleasant flies, from the bright sprawling suburban lights of the contemporary Oak Park Mall & the somewhat sophisticated Town Center Plaza of Johnson County, Ks. But on this Tuesday of December 16th, 2008, when the temperate weather dipped to the one digit degrees of winter; and every living and tangible thing overnight had been blanketed in a fresh crisp first snowfall of the season; that laminated piece of literature catches the corner of my eye as I had just bundled up and began walking toward the front corridor. Ok, yes, I do have a slight tinge of adult attention distraction--otherwise known as primitive male hunters' curiosity. So I picked up the two pages, printed back upon front, and I read the passage about Lucas picturing the cell phone number (800-319-9006)...
"Viktor straightened back up and disappeared in the darkness." And so I once again headed toward the frigid, yet crisp, gleaming, crystals that whipped through the fresh air of Kansas' wintery outdoors. --Harry J.--
