When I couldn't find my book I searched Amazon, too, and this is the one that sounded right. But there weren't any pictures or excerpts, so I can't be sure.

The Patagonia tights came yesterday. I wish I could've bought 2 pair. They're wonderful and will be perfect for under wind pants.

So was mine.
(and so was I!)
But I left the library world just as the internet burst onto the scene, so I'm very behind the times.
Man, that Internet Archives site is AWESOME!

I just scored a cranberry full zip Shak for 99.00 at Oregon Mountain Community on line. Never heard of this place before, but it came up in a search. Looks like they have cool stuff and free shipping over $50.00. There were a couple of other Shaks left, mostly L and XL sizes.
