Leo Moves his Smoke House

"This summer the biggest thing I did was move my fish rack and smoke house from the beach to my house. It was starting to fall down so it was time to move it.

I subsistence and commercial fished both with Leland Roundy and in my own boat. It was an O.K. summer for the number of fish but the prices were pretty low. It was very good for subsistence fishing though, and we put away a lot of fish.

I also worked at the school with Kat and Paul, painting classrooms and jacking up the old Fish and Game house that Richard and Janice Olsen live in. We insulated under the porch of the building and worked on the inside of the house too. And we still haven't finished."
