A Path Less Taken Gary W Friendshuh

$9.95 Paperback available under A Path Less Taken: The True Life Adventures of ONE MAN and His Faith Awakening. All of us travel through life on our own path, but most of us choose, are guided to, or forced on to one where we live our lives like most of those around us. I chose A PATH LESS TAKEN. At age sixteen I spent thirty days in the wilderness halfway between the north shore of Lake Superior and Hudson Bay, and I never saw another human being for twenty-eight days, other than the thirteen-year-old boy that was with me. In 1965, at age twenty-two, I moved my pregnant wife and our one-year-old son to Alaska to homestead. The following year I started my first business, and I have been a plumbing contractor, a land speculator, a real-estate broker, a guide and outfitter, an athletic club owner, a cow-calf rancher, a writer of children's stories, and I have designed and built four homes. Along the way I had five sons, went up against a grizzly bear with a knife and a rock, built two private handball courts, won a state handball tournament, wrote a book on raising children and had an awakening in my lifelong search for faith. All these stories and more are written here in hopes of starting a family tradition wherein each of us tell our own story.
