Summary of nick offerman's paddle your own canoe

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was born in 1970 in Illinois. I was raised by my family, who created the environment I needed to grow up in. My parents, Catherine Ann Offerman and Frederic Dames Offerman, grew up near each other in the countryside outside of Minooka, Illinois. #2 Minooka is a small town in Illinois, about an hour from Chicago. It was primarily a farming community until the commuting suburban population reached it. Now, many inhabitants are considered soft. #3 My parents, Dick and Bonnie, were married young and had me when they were twenty. They rented an old farm for one hundred dollars a month plus utilities. It was right in between the two farms they grew up on, and that's where I lived for my first five years. #4 My first job on the farm was shoveling pig shit in the barn basement for my grandpa Mike Roberts. I loved reading about how the pioneers would slaughter their pigs, and I always named my favorite pigs.
