How does a man reconcile passion for outdoors with love for family, community, and home? Butz finds answers in this collection of insights and essays. While others dreamed of sports, he was knee-deep in a neighborhood creek or hiding in the woods contemplating life as a mountain man. Inspired by wide-open fields, forests, and trout streams, Bob headed north. Life is complicated when you're a man who not only appreciates the solace of good country but also the comfort of a warm fire, a loving wife, and companionship of good friends. Though often at odds with the obligations and everyday toils of domestic living, Butz finds what Thoreau called the nature behind the ordinary, the magic in the seemingly mundane: a trip to a store; the search for the perfect Christmas tree; contemplating life as a trout. Poignant and funny, An Uncrowded Place speaks to the trifles and heartaches that make life worth living, - to every wandering soul looking for a place to call home.
