The day I discovered my grandmother’s letters, I’d driven 10 hours. I drove half the way, and my traveling companion — my husband — drove the other half. I’ve always liked the timeless, nostalgic feeling of being between one place and another. Of gazing out the window at small dusty towns and wondering what people’s lives might be like there. Or stopping for BLTs in nondescript diners. Sometimes, if the weather is nice, we’ll take lunch to a picnic table we know overlooking an empty field.

The Curve of Time is a Northwest classic of coastal cruising. It’s a marvelous book with an almost dreamlike quality by a woman who, left a widow in 1927, packs her five children onto a 25-foot motor launch and explores the complex waters of  British Columbia summer after summer. Blanchet's account of their unstructured days in Desolation Sound reads almost like fiction, but her adventures are all very real. Why should I read it?

They first appeared at dawn and dusk: one elk after another walking single-file through the snow. Winter came early to our home in rural Idaho last year, dropping three feet of powder in the timbered canyon behind our house and coating the mountains above it bright white. We’d spent weeks prepping for the holidays: stocking the freezer, readying the guest room for our grandson’s first Christmas, putting up lights and a tree.
