A friendship remembered through real-life adventures

Tim McNalley gathers stories from a long friendship with Albert “Smokey,” tracing the pair’s youthful exploits from a northern logging camp and their small hometown of Cadogan to road trips across states and provinces. Framed as true recollections, the book looks back on the 1960s, 1970s, and later years through episodes of high spirits, risk-taking, and shared mischief. Beneath the comic adventure material is a memorial element: the collection preserves memories of a best friend who has died, keeping their bond at the center of each anecdote.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in memoir-style collections of true-life anecdotes
  • Readers who enjoy stories of longtime friendship and shared escapades
  • Those curious about recollections of life from the 1960s and 1970s

Book overview

As you read, you will feel like you are part of the story, right there with us in the logging camp up north. Playing "chicken" on the streets of our small home town of Cadogan; or on a road trip taking you through several states and provinces, all guaranteed to arouse your own memories or adventuresome spirit.

This collection of stories in the lives of lifelong friends Tim and Albert (aka Smokey), two high spirited young men with a zest for life and excitement will have you smiling contently. It may bring up some of your own cherished memories from years gone by, or have you wondering what life was like through the 60's, 70's and up, did they really do that sort of stuff. Young or old, I am positive you will enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it.

Don't be surprised if you find yourself actually laughing out loud. Some stories will be hard to believe, but all are true. So sit back and prepare for a great ride. Join Tim and Smokey as they travel from one exciting adventure to another.

My best friend may be gone, but not the memories.
