Vacations don’t always require a change of latitude. Nestled on the cliffs a few miles South of Stinson Beach, Steep Ravine is the most difficult reservation to get in the California State Park system. Nine rustic cabins dot the bluffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean…
Spectator sports don’t necessarily require steroid controversies and $72 field club seats. Take a reprieve and witness pristine competition—the first ever Kiteboard Course Racing World Championships hosted by the St. Francis Yacht…

They say you can't judge a book by its cover... but that was long before there was the magical Kindle 2 which absolutely requires a cover for safety and style.
The Kindle 2 might not have come into this world naked... but pretty darn close. Amazon's prepackaged cover would've been great for a hotel pad of paper and a pen. But job numero uno for a cover is safety. (safety never takes a holiday.) So for a $300+ device, I require a durable cover that will protect my Kindle if I accidentally gravity test it.
The Bobarra Thoreau cover has 4 elastic bands securely latching my Kindle into the cover. Thoreau once said that “books are the carriers of civilization.” But when civilization needs to carry their book, they don't want to be worried about dropping them. For someone who is always running around, I sincerely appreciate the safety of the Thoreau.
But I'm not one to compromise on style. I love the sleek brown leather with fastidious stitching around the edges... professional and cool—I've gotten a few inquiries about where I purchased this cover while riding the bus around town.
Overall, I am very happy with my Kindle 2 and love my Thoreau cover.
