Candace paints a vivid picture of her childhood: an athletic mother who had been a cheerleader, a plumber father, three siblings (she is the middle child), and summers spent entirely outdoors doing physical activities. Her most cherished childhood figure was her grandfather, whose hands were always blackened with car grease and who always had cash to hand out. He taught her to ride a bike. When she was 10, the family moved from her grandparents' house into a condo, but her grandparents remained central. In a later, reflective moment, she describes how her parents' eventual divorce — when she was 23 — contrasted sharply with her grandparents' lifelong union, and how her grandfather's explanation was simply that 'the hippies ruined everything.'
