In a style that is often reminiscent of good times around the campfire, we are introduced to his remarkable family and treated to the uncommon enjoyment they experience together and find in one another. We are privileged to be cut in on his old-fashioned sense of family, respect, love of family and country as well as his unusual capacity to observe and to interact with the world around him sensing the nuances of both mood and moment.
All stories are easy, almost fun, to read. All are brief. All can be read in ten minutes' time. All are true. Many touch on people, places, or simple moments you will recognize. None are exaggerated, embellished, or otherwise improved. Few can be read without stirring in readers' warm memories of good things and good times.
The author has magically captured stories starting from when he was a very young man living in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota, through early adulthood, and beyond, in ways that are so enchanting, you almost wish you were listening to him read them to you as an audiobook. Particularly poignant are his memories of growing up in the Kenilworth Corridor near his boyhood home, near the train bridge that is so much in contention today.
