Max's Family Summer by Max Lunt

:
Max's Family Summer

This summer Max went to Arizona to visit his family. He hardly gets to see them during most of the year, so during the summer he tries to enjoy his family. Max stayed in Arizona for about a week and a half, then he went to Utah. He took all his stuff with him because he was moving there. In Utah he rented an apartment all summer. While he was home he saw a college roommate he'd never seen for about thirty-seven years. Max also went to Idaho to see his daughter and granddaughter.

Towards the end of the July he took his son and son-in-law up to Anchorage then to Seward to fish for halibut. They were limited to only two per person. Although there were six people in the boat Max caught two out of the three fish caught.

Max said that he sure enjoys his summers because it's the only time he can see his family. He says his family is the most important thing in the world to him.
