Friday Quiz: Where Is This? (April 14, 2006) Since my novel I-State Lines (which ships on April 24, should you be brave/ generous/ crazy enough to order a copy) is about two young hapa guys traveling around the U.S. in a gloriously patched together Dodge Lancer, the Friday Quiz will honor the wondrous American landscape for a month or two. Though there is still so much of our amazing country I have yet to trod, I have been fortunate enough to car-camp through many astonishing American landscapes. I've drawn upon my own travels for these photos, and while they don't represent the full spectrum of American landscapes, they will hopefully inspire a bit of the wonders of the long American road To Somewhere New. Some of the places will be spots the two young fictional characters visit; others will have no relation to the book other than the exploration of America. Clearly, your truly is basking in the healing waters of a natural hot springs. But where? I'll ship a copy of my book to the first person who emails in the most accurate response. (Naming the state isn't close enough; it must be a town, the closest proximate town, or the name of the locale, should it have a name found on maps.) If the interest induced by this photo extends to my little book I-State Lines (only $13 on Amazon!), then this poor dumb unknown would most gratefully welcome your order.
