Hidden Treasures
"Some things don't disappear. They just get harder to find."
There's a way of looking at life that doesn't get talked about much anymore. It's not loud, not polished, and it doesn't try to impress. It just tells things the way they were—and the way they still are, if you take the time to notice.
Hidden Treasures is a collection of stories drawn from a life spent farming, building, fixing, and paying attention. Inside, you'll find memories of old trucks and loyal dogs, pool halls filled with smoke and quiet lessons, long handles in winter, and meals that didn't come from a box. There are reflections on growing up in the 50s and 60s, on how things were made to last, and how people were, too.
These aren't stories dressed up to be something they're not. They're plainspoken and honest. A man talking about what he's seen—working the land, raising a family, sitting in a bar where everyone knew your name, or standing in a workshop turning old lumber into something worth keeping.
There's humour here, the kind that comes easy and doesn't try too hard. There's also a steady thread running through it all—an understanding that while the world keeps changing, some things still matter just the same.
If you've ever wondered where the simple things went… or if they're still around, just harder to see… you'll find something familiar in these pages.
These are the kind of stories that don't shout.
They sit with you awhile.
