There are many things that Scott Paquette, my sister’s partner, can teach me. In fact, there are many things that Scott can teach all of us, being the sort of guy who could build a house with his bare hands, dismantle and rebuild a jeep blindfolded and then go hunting for his dinner. I, on the other hand, struggle to solve even the most basic of Ikea challenges. Ashamed of my clear lack of Real Man Skills, I asked Scott to show me how to use a chainsaw last time I was in Colorado.
