Which at that point in time was way out in the boonies, it was just ah miles and miles away from anything. And ah, I mean I remember driving down to um my grandmother's house, to ah go for Sunday dinner every week, and we would go by farms as we were going south 'cause they lived Bayview-and-Eglington and we were going south from where we were.

Where if you grew up like kind-of in the boonies or in like, you-know, in the bush or one of those surrounding areas then you might have more of a rural way of talking.

Yeah in- in the minds of Canadians anyway. Because when we hear word- the words "north" we just always think of- it's like a negative word to Canadians, I-think, in a way because we think north equals cold and south equals warm. And we think north equals the boonies and south equals civilization you-know-what-I-mean? Like it's that whole idea.

The taxes would go up, we were also operating because we had like thirty townships away out in the boonies that were unorganized. The school board become the official tax collector so we had to run a tax department ah which is fine...

And ah, we spent the week there watching him. Sitting up in the- in the boonies with ah most of the ah family from Alberta behind us. The Alberta team was behind us and Saskatchewan was in front of us.

And she was really close to him and she just couldn't handle it anymore so she got out of Finland and came to Canada and she knew a person in Burks that was operating a boarding-house at the time and so she became a chamber-maid of sorts behind Burks in the boonies and- and I assume that's where she met my grandfather.

I ain't kidding you. It was unbelievable, 'round creeks and rivers and over hills and around corners and- way back to the boonies. So I (inc) found the place. We heads in long long back into the bush type-thing.

Interviewer: Well you get to see the very backwoods of the boonies. Speaker: Oh, there's lots of boonies. That's one episode, I could tell you several others but…

It was going across down the wall, about three feet up and then disappeared. Still didn't figure out what the idea this was. So we decided when we left here, we're going to go out that door. So we did. We went out that door and he used propane. Two big propane tanks sitting outside the door, yeah. Back in the boonies where's there no...

It's only a lamb." And it went out down the full length of that one field, crossed the end of it heading into the boonies, eh?

That's when- meanwhile, he get out on the road and they're- it wouldn't be as bad as if he lived back in the boonies but he lived out near the road and people, you see these poor sheep and people take clips of them.
