Nastasia Turet's Wonderful Summer

 

"My summer was great! This summer I cut a lot of fish. I hadn't cut fish since 1969. I was cutting fish down below the pool hall on the shore of the river. Most of the time I was pretty tired doing most of the work by myself. Only Vernon Evan helped me out. It was hard getting the wood for the smokehouse and keeping the fire burning, but I was happy just cutting the fish so I can store them for the long winter months.

I also picked a lot of berries to put away. At first I picked blueberries, then this month I picked a lot of cranberries and blackberries to store for winter. I enjoyed picking berries so much I picked them for too long and I came home tired.

What I really liked the best about my summer was having visitors from upriver and going to square dances on the weekends or whenever they had one."
