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.
