Julia's 63" Moose by Julia Papp:Julia's 63" Moose
Julia started her summer commercial fishing with James Edison. They fished for Kings at their camp which is located near lnrihak, and during the Chum season they fished down river near the mouth of Poltys Slough. Only once they sold to M.FP. because the fish prices at Boreal were much higher. This year they did a lot better then last year. When she wasn't fishing she also worked with Home Care helping the elders with their vital signs and housekeeping. She had to take their pulse, blood pressure, temperature, and respiration. She also had to help them with their cooking, cleaning, laundry, and personal hygiene. She says it was a very stressful job. On her free time she picked berries and went for boat rides and hunting. She says she likes the country because of the beautiful scenery. She also picked berries behind their fish camp in a little slough. A couple weeks ago she and James went out moose hunting up river. They caught a big bull moose that had antlers with a 63 inch spread. During the trip they had a lot of fun but at times she was scared, especially at night. The trip was worth it, though. At this time she is very happy to be a cook at the school again. She is planning on being a cook as long as she can. Her future plans are to continue to work as the school cook.
