Lena Fitka's Boring Summer

:

LENA FITKA'S BORING SUMMER

"I had a boring summer," she said. "1 didn't do anything except cut fish, pick some berries, clean-up,and washed the clothes. I was busy."

"On the 10th of June I was busy with my youngest daughter's birthday. She had just turned three."

"When the berries got ripe me and my friend, Sophie Moxie, went out to pick blueberries."

"In June I came back from Anchorage where I was since March.The day after I got back we went camping with the Bolivers. I sorta had fun when we went hunting in the evenings. But I'd say that this summer was so boring I'd never want one like it again!"
