Through her characterisation in “Miles City‚ Montana”‚ Munro explores a number of different themes and ideas; drowning‚ survival‚ memory‚ marriage‚ and so on.

Strolling along the boardwalk of The Six Mile Cypress Slough was a memorable experience. This secluded area creates a better view of wild life.
