Outside reading1: Bryce Evason

The piece in the book I am reading is set two hours north of Winnipeg Manitoba Canada for this section of the book. This is right in the middle of the prairies where the land is so flat that you can see over the horizon for hundreds of miles. My father was born about three hours north of this place in a small town called Flin Flon Manitoba. My mother was born in Brandon Manitoba and they met in Brandon when they both went to high school there. My family has a summer home on a lake in Riding Mountain National Park which is two hours and thirty minutes away from Winipeg. We go back to the lake house every summer for three months and Winnipeg is an important city to our family because it is the closest place that has an airport to our house so we fly into there every summer. When I read that the book was talking about Winnipeg it made me miss the lake house a whole lot.
