Everybody back home was talking about going back to the land but they never did anything about it. In '72 I got tired of their BS and decided to just do it. My brother and I left Montreal in an old GMC 1 ton van and drove across Canada. Along the way we worked on a cattle ranch near Eckville Alberta for two months. We arrived in the Quesnel area, on the Barkerville highway at Cottonwood. As we drove into an old school friend's driveway, I had the distinct feeling that I had come home. So began the adventure of a lifetime.
