Canadian Journey

More about the book

Meeting at a new school at the age of eleven, Jan and Sue discovered a mutual passion for Canada, reading everything they could about the vastness of the country, its wildlife and wilderness. From then until they left school at sixteen, they promised each other that as soon as they could, they would go out to Canada, find an isolated cabin somewhere in The Rocky Mountains and live the dream. Unfortunately it didn't quite work out that way! But fifty years later, after careers, marriage, children, divorce and several trips to Canada (but never with each other), an opportunity arose for a month in Canada - together! The trip not only finally kept the promise they'd made to each other, it proved the value of friendship, that wilderness was as much a state of mind as untamed land, and freedom was more than an empty highway.
