Mary DeVaul, a former Stanford chemistry major, built a remote log cabin and cottage store near Bowron Lake in British Columbia with her family. She chronicled a five year wilderness project that began with canoe trips and snowbound seasons, turning a plateau of isolation into a small enterprise and home.

Woman's View on Christmas Gifts with Odd Santa Requests
A humorous woman writes of Christmas wish lists and quirky gifts. She recalls a sterling silver yoyo, Icelandic sheep skin, mink and sable fantasies, and extravagant items from Adventures Unlimited and Neiman Marcus. The piece notes ecology trends like bottle cutters and air pollution tests, ending with a gag cigarette box that coughs when extinguished.
