About Author Linda Ballou
A love triangle of extremes has proven to be a solid base for adventure-travel writer Linda Ballou’s writing. From her roots in Alaska she received strength, centeredness and respect for the awful power of nature. While living in Hawaii, she found nurturing, a spiritual awakening, peace and her heroine for her acclaimed historical novel, Wai-nani—A Voice from old Hawaii.
Her second novel, The Cowgirl Jumped Over the Moon, takes Gemcie McCauly from the Grand Prix show jumping circuit to the John Muir Wilderness and back again. Join her on a wild ride on her way to World Cup.
In Lost Angel Walkabout-One Traveler’s Tales filled with chills, spills, and giggles Linda shares her most meaningful travel adventures. You may go to her website www.lindaballouauthor.com to view a host of articles and more about her books

I enjoy sharing Durango with media visitors. Linda Ballou arrived for a FAM trip that opened my eyes and engaged me in adventures in our area. Having been the Public Relations Consultant for Durango for over 7 years, it was refreshing to travel with Linda and explore my own backyard. While I enjoyed Linda's visit, I am amazed at the stories she secured (and continues to place) about the Durangoarea. Linda over-delivers and exceeded my expectation for a FAM trip. I hope she comes back to visit.
Best,

You can practically hear the birds, smell the rain, and see the snow-capped mountains as Linda tells stories with such vivid and exemplary detail. She gives a whole new meaning to adventure and exploration! Linda takes you on the ride of your life! Scrambling through the mountains in Alaska, encountering a momentous sea storm in Hawaii, and tussles through an excursion with a broken rib. Linda reminds me of a brave pioneer woman full of ambition to see and experience every aspect of life. And if her journey into the deep blue waters of the Sea of Cortez in a kayak doesn’t inspire you, then I don’t know what will. Fit Life and Travel
