The Road to Happiness: Our Home on the North Hill (Volume 1) Mrs. Donna L Munro 1. izdevums

About This Book Elna was born in 1918. She describes the foundation of her family. Then, the year Elna turned 11, she moved to the North Hill above Brandon. Moving to the North Hill was a great opening of adventure for Elna, giving her a vast space and place for admiring the natural world. Elna and her family moved to a fertile piece of property her family turned into a market garden. Elna?s admiration for her father grew as he struggled through his own physical challenges to create what he envisioned. This story describes the world she saw then, including the layout of the land, the transportation, the social structures, the impacts of disease, the natural world, the economics, the access to services, the technology of her home, the family chores, the food, the difficulties of her times, and the wonderful aspects of her times. Elna describes a place on the North Hill which today has been engulfed as part of an urban dwelling. Elna places upon this time and place meanings and expressions of significance related to the word home. Home is a place captured in time and space which cannot be really understood without a gatekeeper to open the door to readers.
