Beschreibung
Leaving Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada, in the Okanagan in 1993. Getting
away from the second boom and the higher cost of living, an entrepreneurial husband and wife
decide to buy raw land. Travelling to the outskirts of the author's hometown of Prince George,
British Columbia. A sub lake shore five-acre lot is secured. Quietness and simple way of living
was the goal for the midlife years. Jessie would not be able to imagine the battles she would she
would go through homesteading in the semi wilderness of Cluculz Lake. She was unaware of the
instability the work life would involve, and the challenging developments of building a house and
homelife. Although many women were picking up men's trades, working at a wood mill was a new
experience for Jessie. Her experiences of trying to change a statuary hobby into a home business
by herself took every ounce of imagination she could muster. Jessie braved what was presented
to her and overcame all that was ahead of her. Her creative nonfiction memoir leads to a Domestic
again but, to her younger son and small granddaughter, leading to a Daycare occupation. The
memoir is a span of sixteen years of Jessie's life.
