About the Book

This is based on a true story about the unique bonding and friendship of two wild creatures, and their life experiences while together at a country inn in Vermont. The first creature, a mallard duck, was rescued at a young age from what was destined to be his reluctant place of honor—on a dinner table—and has taken up residence on a pond in a friendly Vermont country inn. The second wild creature, a snow goose, was separated from her migrating flock and landed in the same pond, where they met and became fast friends and soul mates.

About the Author

The author took an early retirement from the international company that employed him in the United States, France, and England. The experiences of he and his wife of traveling and living among different cultures throughout Europe offered an excellent view of the hospitality industry. As they thought of retirement, the idea of an inn with life in the Vermont countryside became very appealing. They searched and found an early 1800s farm offering beauty and serenity, and this story of wildlife creatures demanded to be told. They now live in northeast Georgia, in an area remarkably like Vermont.
