Bob Bell's lived a long and colorful life, but there were times when it looked like it might be cut short. Join Bob, his eccentric group of friends, and his long-suffering family as he tells the tales of how Alaska's weather, geography, and wildlife all tried to kill him and other people.
Bob has captured what many of us have thought during our misadventures over the years....we're all pretty well out of our element compared to the critters who live by the rules of survival in the wilderness on a daily basis. Throw in a healthy dose of testosterone and perhaps a beer or more, and men can come up with all kinds of ways to humiliate themselves....though we rarely admit those embarrassing moments as Bob has so eloquently in this book. Prepare to laugh out loud!
Really funny

This book is full of really, really funny, down to earth stories. I mean, *really* funny. If you have spent time in the north country (Alaska, Yukon, NWT, Nunavut, etc.) you will be able to relate to many of these tales. I found myself laughing out loud as I read some chapters.
This book is great! It will make you laugh so hard!

This is a great little book. The stories will make you think of your friends and family, and also wonder about evolution and if it really works right. Its chapters are short and sweet and enjoyable! If you dont laugh while reading this book, you need some serious help!!!!! Its not for small children but preteens will enjoy it even, as will grandparents and all in between! We always try to keep a copy or 2 on hand for our guests to read each year at our B & B, the Kenai River Hideaway B & B, and they all get a good laugh going.
