Chris took a long time to learn something wonderful . . . In an honest and intimate storytelling style, Chris relives triumphs, catastrophes, and plenty of moments that fell somewhere in between. With a friendly and nostalgic voice, he unfolds his adventures and misadventures one by one, has us laughing at times and choking back a tear at others, and shows us a good time along the way. From a lonely playground sandbox to a high, snowy mountaintop; from raging whitewater, exciting baseball tournaments, and mysterious lava tunnels to the terrors of Junior High; from the bleak bottom of too many booze bottles to the joyful realization that there is a God who loves him, this warm, funny, heart-tugging, and inspiring collection of adventures provides us with vivid reminders of the value of family, the strength of tenacity, the power of faith, the need for forgiveness, and the importance of always striving to be an ocelot in an underwear drawer.
