Description:
"In September 1993, four generations of the Travis family gather to celebrate the 80th birthday of their matriarch, Isabelle. Reflecting on their experiences at the rustic family cabin set on a lake in the Chippewa National Forest, they talk of fishing for walleye, cooking the perfect beef roast, pulling pranks, making love, and living life abundantly over eighty years. Simultaneously heart-warming and heartbreaking, the stories told by Isabelle, her daughter Ruth, and her grandson Eddie slowly unwrap secrets long held secrets long hidden deep in the Minnesota North Woods. Come home with the Travis family and listen in as they tell you about everything from the hardships of building and maintaining a cabin, to the colorful characters ringing Lake Dunbar, to the bittersweet pleasure of changing traditions"--Page 4 of cover.
