A Place On A Canadian Lake
My Grandfather recently told me about his previous holidays in Canada and also about a house that he used to own there . He told me the story of how it came into his possession and then he described it. The way he described it sounded out of this world and I thought I had to share it.
his home was in Alberta, situated right on the edge of Primrose Lake. It was a 3 bedroom house with a big living room and a huge open fireplace. It was built using local hard wood and stone and was made completely by hand, all of it.He dug out an old photo of the house and it look absolutely idyllic.
During the summer months he would fish in his little boat for hours on end. You do not know what real silence sounds like he told me, its beautifully indescribable.The world we live in bombards us with constant noise from vechiles, machinery or people doing something. But not here. Here was silent as can be. He told me how he used to gaze for hours at the ore-inspiring mountains and often sleep in his little boat as well
In the winter time he would ice skate for a while on a patch of lake that he had cleared of snow and sometime do some ice fishing as well. Any fish that her caught would be made into a fish pie by my grandmother and they would both eat it in front of the fire in the evening.
It all sounded like something out of a fairytale. And that is why, after hearing my grandfathers story, I am heading out there soon on a holiday to look for a place of my own on that same lake. Sadly the house that my grandfather used to live is isn’t not available but I will find somewhere that is the same as possible.
