This is a book being proofed for submission. I have one question answered
so that's cool.

Dear Scott, and Booksharian Friends,
Are you scanning or proofreading this book? If you're proofreading, have you
tried to contact the person who scanned it. If you can't contact that
person, can you access the print copy via sighted help or an opticon? If
you're stuck on all fronts, I can see if my library has the book or if I can
get it for cheap, but that'll take about two weeks because I'll be going out
of town.
If you're scanning it, I can send the info so you can plug it in.
Meanwhile you could work on another book and renew the Lighthouse book until
I get back. Once you have the print book, the fixes can happen pretty fast.
If you want me to check out those numbers and island names, send me the book
title, and ISBN off list to

Eddie And The Fire Engine, the book with the Christmas message that was
giving Shelly problems came today. The message is easy for me to read
because it's in large print, but the letters are wavy and the words are
crooked not in straight lines. When the book arrived I turned to that page
because if I couldn't read it, I'd have had to tell Shelley to keep looking
for someone to help her. It will be fun proofreading Eddie and the Fire
Engine because I grew up reading those books in braille. I wonder if those
books are still available from NLS or if they wore out years ago?
I'm off to spell check a chunkster.
Good luck
Always with love,
Lissi

Hello there,
I finally got around to copying this out of the Eastern Lighthouse of the
Great Lakes. Here is the passage with the strange number in it.
HOW TO GET THERE:
The lighthouse is located in Tawas Point State Park. To reach the
lighthouse, drive about ***l'/ miles west of Tawas City on U.S. 23, then
turn right onto
Tawas Beach Road. Continue into the park and drive to the beach parking area
at the end of the road. Follow the walking path to the lighthouse, which can
be seen from the parking area. The tower is open to the pub lie in June, and
the Coast Guard offers tours during most summer months. For information on
tours call (517) 362-4429. Camping facilities and picnic tables are
available in the park.
thanks for the help.
