Filled with humor, love, adventure, and as one reviewer notes -- characters worthy of a Coen Brothers film.

About this title

From the Author:

This is the little book that could. The response from everyone from National Geographic Weekend to my neighbors (one said he missed shooting a deer because he was so immersed) has been incredible. Please check out my website for book group guidelines, for speaking gigs, and my blog posts. And review the book once you've read it or contact me. I'd love to hear from you.

From the Back Cover:

A Couple's Wilderness Journey from Lake Superior to the Canadian NorthJulie Buckles and Charly Ray built a wood and canvas canoe, exchanged marriage vows, and paddled away from their front yard, planning to travel 2,700 to the Arctic Ocean and winter over in a tiny cabin. What a honeymoon! Told in Julie's page-turning style, their story is full of humor and humility, rapids and relationships, love and life. "My evening tea was entirely forgotten as I became lost in the narrative. This is a gem." -- Garrett Conover, Beyond the Paddle, Snow Walker's Companion
