Restaurant Resource Group
Making a profit in the restaurant business is a challenge. We know first hand, having created and operated many restaurants over the last twenty-five years. Adequate sales, experience, and capital can help, but without solid financial and operational controls in place, long-term success is not assured. That's why the The Restaurant Resource Group was created.... to empower restaurant operators by providing these "controls" in the form of simple, yet powerful, financial and management products and services.

Author Peter Mayle answers that question with wit, warmth, and wicked candor in A Year in Provence, the chronicle of his own foray into Provençal domesticity.

Homelands : Kayaking the Inside Passage by Byron Ricks
In 1996 Ricks and his wife, Maren van Nostrand, came close to making an offer on their first house, but instead decided to undertake an adventure of a different kind together--kayaking from Alaska's Glacier Bay down the coast of Western Canada to southern Puget Sound, near their Seattle home. They had no set schedule to keep and for five months lived by nautical charts and the rhythms of the tides, wind, and weather. Their plan was to paddle from the glaciers to the city, exploring a coast in flux and the ways of native peoples such as the Tlinglit, Tsimshian, and Haida--whose ancestors paddled the passage for centuries.
