Oxenia Isaac's Summer Vacation

Oxenia's summer started off lonely. She was with her son Dennis in Anchorage for three weeks. During her stay, she went out Hooligan fishing.The place where she fished was a half hour drive out of Anchorage. The other thing she did was go out picnicing at Eagle river a couple of times. Nothing exciting happened over there. But she was real scared when her relative had to go to the hospital: he recovered though before she came back to Marshall.

When she came back home she said she kept herself busy by doing house work. She didn't cut as much fish this year as the year before because she wasn't here all summer. But she got to cut fall chums.

She also traveled to Russian Mission for Russian Orthodox Conference which lasted for a couple of days. Then she went out berry picking a couple of times. And after that she went to fish camp.

Nothing else exciting happened this summer. She was glad to be home, and the month of July went by pretty fast for her.

Thank you Oxie br letting me interview you!
