Opis

Living with her husband and young daughter in a soggy RV park in Western Oregon, the author was certain she had just made the biggest mistake of her life-a long-distance move in the middle of a recession. The family's beloved travel trailer, the Jay Flight, takes them on a migration of both place and spirit-from the parched land of the Southwest to the damp forests of the Paci c Northwest, and across lines of culture, socio-economic status, and community. Against the backdrop of the recession, this memoir pro les the quirky cast of characters the family meets while living in the Jay Flight. All on migrations of their own, these new friends ultimately help the author arrive at a new place-a place free of the conventional categories with which we so often identify ourselves. In Wallner's words, "A ock can change. You can get lost from it, and come back to it. And it might not even be the same ock you left. But you can latch on to it and y south, and hardly notice the difference."
