Under the Big Sky

One afternoon an old man says to his grandson, "I would like you to have all my riches once I am gone. But before you have them, you must find the secret of life and bring it back to me".And so the young boy sets off. A farmer suggests he look to the earth, a boat recommends he learn from the wind, and in a time of frustration, the sea urges him to continue his quest.

After many years, he returns to his grandfather, fearing he has failed. But the old man's gift to his grandson is the lesson that the journey is its own reward, and riches are to be found in unexpected places. People of all ages will find wisdom, humor, and inspiration here to sustain them on their own journeys ... under the big sky.
