When eight intrepid Canadian seniors, brought together by marriage and with retirement in common, sit reminiscing about their travel experiences, the memory banks open and funny events start to spill out. Cowboy Ron, Ed the Negotiator, Joke-a Minute Jim and Practical Carol are part of the motley crew comprising the author's contingent of six in-laws. Each, at one time or another, has a role to play in the humorous events that occur on their travels. Reviewers have termed it “laugh out loud hilariousâ€, “an exhilarating read†and “definitely a ride worth taking.†I Guess We Missed The Boat was just named the top Travel book for 2013/14 by Reader Views in Austin, Texas.
