Gerilyn's Summer
Vacation
Gerilyn's summer started off with a
boat ride down to Pilot Station.
"That was one of the first places I
went to by boat," she said. "We went down on a Friday, stayed until
Sunday, then we came home. We went down for a fund raiser the
churches sponsored. The day after we came back, we went out camping.
I would say that this year wasn't as much fun as the other years I've
gone camping because we stayed at camp for only a few days. When
fishing started I was babysitting for my auntie. I made some money
doing that job, and that money paid for my vacation trip to Bethel
for the fourth of July. I went on a charter plane with my cousins and
auntie Ruth.
"The trip was so much fun that it was
worth all the money spent on it."
After she came back from Bethel she
helped her mom cut fish a couple of times. After the house work was
all done she would also go out and check the fish net with her
brother Jerry. They continued that until the fish house was full.
Then she was introduced to rod and reeling. At first she thought it
was boring, but she found out it was more fun than she had expected.
One day she claimed there was fish all around the boat and she had so
much fun she didn't want to return home. Every day after that she
never wanted to stay home and she would always ask one of her
brothers to bring her out.
During the middle of July Gerilyn
went to Mt. Village with the fiddling band from Marshall. When she
returned here, she found her sister Caroline had come home. It was
the first time she had seen Caroline's little boy Cory. She was so
happy to see him she spent all her leisure time with him. After he
and his mother left for Fairbanks, she also spent time with her
auntie Gloria and her two youngest children Shannon and Donald. So
Gerilyn's summer didn't turn out so bad after all.
